Hi John, 

What games do you remember playing as a kid? 

What's your favorite game today?

This month, we're thinking about stories of play from the past. In our blog, Top 5 Tips for a Happier Recess, we explore enduring principles that have turned simple games into true classics. 

Great games share common characteristics like positive language, guidelines for safety, adult interaction, and free-and-imaginative play. Check out the blog to find tips for easy ways to bring these traits to your playground.

Until next month, stay safe and have fun.
