Some of my favorite read-alouds have included parents that have given their children time and space to play, understanding the value of play, and, also, understanding their invaluable role as a parent. During our devotions, I discussed being humble and kind and compassionate. Still, I have to be thoughtful about how I treat their play time. However, there is no such thing as the perfect environment in which a child can play. If we try to organize perfection, we fail the child.
Part of life is to learn to accept the limitations of any given situation.
We do our children a lifelong service if we help them to make the best of where they live and who they are. Children are great adaptors. One last thought on child's play. I have relearned how to play. The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.
