Description

American parenting culture constantly emphasizes skills-building and academics, which puts a ton of pressure on Dad's to become Tiger Parents. But what about straight-up fun?! What about free play, imagination, and child-driven adventure? Matt and Max take a look at the many different kinds of play - from team sports to digging around in the mud - exploring the invaluable qualities that horsing around, in all its forms, helps instill in children.  Most importantly, we're on the lookout for ways to have adventures and create activities that are fun for everybody - including the grown-ups - because most of us Dads could use a little more play in our lives too. It's all fun and games until the United Nations recognizes play as a right of every child. This is serious business. LET'S GO!
