#21 The Value of Play

Why is play important? What is the value of play? 

Well, today’s episode of the immersion Nation Podcast is a little bit different. This is the first in a series of mini episodes that we’re going to be releasing periodically in place of our normal interviews. 

We’ve been asking guests of the Immersion Nation podcast why play matters.

There are certain concepts that are intrinsic, not just to the immersive wave, but to how we understand and interface with the world as a whole. But often the importance of play fades in our mind as we get older…

We want to know what you think!
What do we lose when we forget how to play?
Or
Why do you think play is important?

We will share your thoughts on the next episode about about play
