Philosophy of Play

This evening will explore some philosophical ideas behind our play and encourage time to embrace our inner child. Be prepared to shake off some inhibitions and get involved.


Across the animal kingdom the young of every species play – they are learning to hunt, climb and fall – necessary skills to survive. As they age, their play changes, but always remains, to keep their learning sharp. Human play is different, too often led by adults, controlled and limited in time. What is human play about, and why do we stop? Have we lost contact with our child within and how would we change if we learnt anew to have free play?
