I make sure to have playtime where I drop adult agendas and let her guide our play. It is often sweet, riotous and totally regenerating.Gabriela Masalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00520261012257196822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585808.post-39912824268266699922010-02-25T11:28:21.340-08:002010-02-25T11:28:21.340-08:00I love the premise for your blog.

I also have a small art studio/creativity room in my home where I leave out projects that are in process. Then, when I have a brief snippet of time, I can escape to my fun room to work on a project, such as sewing, photography, creating art, etc. You may find some ideas in the profiles on my blog of people who are reinventing their lives.

And it can be difficult to make time for playful activities when we're juggling adult schedules. <br /><br />As for your situation, I wonder if it might make sense to try to schedule less time consuming play activities... instead of baking cookies, just eat some (the sugariest, gooiest cookies you can find ~ dip them in milk, make a mess). Or instead of going to a yoga class, just spontaneously practice a few poses in your home (any balancing poses, tree or crane or handstands, are always good for a giggle).<br /><br />I work from home, so my play comes in small doses... with little reminders from my cats. They'll insist that I play ball or chase, or just come along and take a nap on my keyboard.<br /><br />Anyway, fun initiative! Good luck!roseannehttp://www.itsallyogababy.comnoreply@blogger.com
