Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you?

View all responses

I occupy my time with things I enjoy doing, but don’t know as I’d consider it play. The grandkids are synonymous with playtime, though some of them are getting old enough to sit at a table and draw or assemble a Lego kit. Playtime is evolving, but there’s still plenty of hide and seek and piling on papa.

Anytime the grandkids are around is playtime. They might all latch on to the same activity, or we can be going in multiple directions.

Other than that, the only thing I can think of is what has become an annual trip to the upper midwest, to spend a week with my brothers golfing and fishing. That’s playtime to me.

Well, that and yardwork, though yardwork may be its own category– not quite play, not quite work.
