'Stuff and nonsense' - a great title, @wkrussell; so aptly resonating of how Stuart Lester, in his work for both researchers and practitioners, used to dive recklessly in the moment of play and in the myriad, chaotic ways playfulness matters to children.

Today, this is my favourite quote on play: “Children are gluttons for life… Play has something to do with attacking life in an unconventional manner.” John Bertelsen (playworker at Emdrup, the world's 1st #adventureplayground), writing in 1972. Image credit: Sven Türck / Visda

When children say they are bored, Jan van Gils, former President of @PlayICCP, replied 'Ah, so you haven't found what you want to do yet.' So empowering!
