Peter Gray is a researcher and professor at Boston College, in Psychology and Neuroscience, whose recent work focuses primarily on children's natural ways of learning and the value of play from an evolutionary perspective.
Peter defines play as an independent and unsupervised activity initiated by the players themselves.
We discuss the significance of differentiating play from other activities, why prioritising happiness in children's development is overlooked. The long-term benefits of play in promoting children's mental health, happiness, and confidence.
We critique the prevailing cultural emphasis on measurement and standardised education, highlighting how this approach may overlook the crucial role of happiness in children's lives.
Key Questions:
* What is missing from the conversation about play in society?
* Why is it so hard for people to not pay attention to a child when they're not happy?
* What are the root causes of the rise in ADHD diagnoses?
* How are you remaining upbeat and connected to your mission around these topics?
