What to expect

Every kid needs horseplay! Roughhousing is an essential part of childhood development—but it is increasingly overshadowed by screens and structured activities. In Unplug and Play, a doctor and a child psychologist, both dads, introduce parents to the benefits of physical play for young children.



Drawing from gymnastics, martial arts, ballet, team sports, and even animal behavior, the authors present fun full-contact activities for parents and children to enjoy together, including:



● Human Cannonball



● Magic Carpet Ride



● Raucous Pillow Fight



● And more!



With activities for everyone from toddlers to kids ages twelve and up, you'll build a foundation for a lifetime of enriching physical play. Previously published as The Art of Roughhousing, this updated edition incorporates new child development research and addresses the changing role of screen time.
