Humans, being. with Lael Stone · Dara Simkin, being. with Lael Stone | Play Is Not a Reward ♥︎ · 13 Sep 2026 podcast

They through the play they can, you know, lean into themes and things that they probably can't through words and, you know, obviously that a lot of children don't have the words to articulate what it is.

So play is just, you know, and a big shout out to all the play therapists out there because you guys are just mmm.

I just love play therapy for children always.

Um so play has so many different roles, you know, when I look at it through that kid's lens of just a attachment and connection and also learning and also processing life, all those kind of things.

And we kind of know and accept that about kids, don't we, right?

And then what breaks my heart a little bit is as they become kinda tweens and teenagers, they kinda stop playing and our systems don't support that as well.

Like so we don't

give kids opportunities to play as much at recess.

I mean, I just always think there should be Lego out there for 15 year olds to play with and all the other things that they teens cause they need to play as well.

So now talk to me about play and adults because I think, you know, we a lot of people who are adults are thinking, oh, just be more playful, be a bit silly, but it's actually not that, is it?

Like talk to me about play in the context of adults.

So, yeah.

Okay.

So I love that.

that that bigger picture of what you're talking about there.

Like I really hear that about being the we're kind of stepping out of our rigidity to being a little bit silly.

Like I think silliness has a part to play, doesn't it?

Not taking ourselves too seriously is huge as well.

So in more of that corporate setting, because I know that's the place that you that you work more in.
