[quote=Anonymous]My 9/year old son just had his first weekend of completely unstructured play. We live in a neighborhood with very few kids, and our son goes to a school outside of our assigned one. His friend invited him over to play for the afternoon. They spent the whole day riding their bikes around the neighborhood, gathering up other friends from school, doing god knows what, outside all day long. He had so much fun that he went back the next day and did it again. I have never seen my kid so happy, and so exhausted. I would almost consider moving to that neighborhood but the houses are way too big for our little family of 3. [/quote]
