Leadership in Sneakers: Why unstructured play matters

In this session, Dr. Alan E. Nelson provides key insights into the importance of providing unstructured, unsupervised play for kids with friends and neighbors. The reason is that children learn an array of social qualities that help them as leaders. They gain skills such as conflict management, creativity, empathy, communication and team building. Dr. Nelson includes quotes, statistics, and practical things parents can do. Note: This podcast includes a video early in the YouTube version, so you'll miss some of the nuances, but otherwise the audio content should be easy to understand. Please pass this on to your friends and people in your network who want to set up their child to succeed in life. www.kidlead.com www.kidlead.com/kla www.leadyoung.com www.facebook.com/kidleadacademy www.linkedin.com/kidleadacademy www.youtube.com/@kidleadacademy
