Play Daze Training

A Workshop Customized for Organizations

Play is one of the most valuable assets in our arsenal of activities for promoting individual and community health. Yet, as adults, we often consider it frivolous or irrelevant. This half-day or full-day training session is designed to re-introduce youth and community workers to Play as an asset in building group cohesiveness and in preparing youth for adult competencies.

Our goal is to give participants the experience and the tools to incorporate Play into their own youth and community programs and activities.

Our Play Daze Training includes the following components:

  • Reviewing the history of Play
  • Exploring theoretical and practical aspects of Play
  • Providing structured experiences of Play in a group atmosphere
  • Discussing the possibilities for including Play in organizational programs and activities
  • Exploring the relationship between Play and spirituality and their impact on youth development
