My memoir, Why Can't We Just Play? chronicles one glorious summer when I let my kids take "time off" from all scheduled activities - no camps, classes, or any kind of structure at all.  We had an old-fashioned, 1950's style summer.

​It is packed with funny stories, tips for slowing down, and poignant moments of realization that kids do in fact grow up.  I hope it will inspire you to relish these summer days while they last.
