Free to Learn: Why Unleashing the Instinct to Play Will Make Our Children Happier, More Self-Reliant, and Better Students for Life by Peter O. Gray

2.0

This book was interesting at times, and I enjoyed hearing about how children learn and play and what historically influences this. Yet Gray seems to have a "throw the baby out with the bathwater" approach to shifting educational systems and I think there are ways to work with existing structures. I also was put off by the frequent use of "normal" to indicate non-autistic or neurotypical child. Overall, interesting information, not life changing.
