Fun-Filled October 3, 2010 Event with Prominent Artists, Scientists And Educators Will Help Children Play Their Way to Success Play is serious business. But, unfortunately, it's also a fast-diminishing commodity for today's kids, leading to a growing crisis for future innovation and the 21st Century workforce. Play for Tomorrow, a nonprofit organization dedicated to shedding light on the crucial role of play in children's development and education, aims to bring playful learning back to the forefront with the Ultimate Block Party. The first "play date" in a national education movement, the Ultimate Block Party will transform the Bandshell area of New York City's Central Park on Sunday, October 3, into the world's most innovative playground, demonstrating the power of fun and games for learning and helping to reinforce that how we play as children helps form who we become as adults. Ellen Galinsky will be signing free copies of Mind in the Making at the event, so we hope to see you in the park! For more information, visit www.ultimateblockparty.org.
