Learning is a risky business that requires trying new things and being ready to fail. Play has many benefits for children, including improved language and problem-solving skills, perseverance, and creativity. However, not all kids have access to play due to budget cuts and program reductions. This episode explores the impact of play on children's development and well-being, how play can create equity in education, and ways to ensure all students have access to play.

In this episode, Elizabeth Cushing, CEO of Playworks, joins Kevin P. Chavous to discuss the importance of play in education.
