What reviewers are saying:

“This is seriously a resource that everybody who works with bodies needs to get. Matt lays out a story-driven, compelling case for a playful life. He gives us a bird’s eye view of the benefits of play and a fantastic overview of new options for games and a choose-your-own-adventure approach. This is a creative book in the realest sense. He’s inviting us to create a new practice for ourselves, and in doing so he’s providing the perfect sandbox for us to play in.” — Chandler Stevens, Luminal Movement

Not homework, not housework, not some dumb chore, just play. I don’t do that enough with my kids anymore. I’m going to try to fix that.”— Christy V., vet, athlete and super mom of three!
