LET THE CHILDREN PLAY! I join UNICEF in calling for daily play, regular physical activity through adolescence; digital tools that enhance—not replace— human connection; and foundational skills like writing with pen and paper. @DianeRavitch @JonHaidt @LetGrowOrg @.

It's an honor to join UNICEF in urging: "Across all ages digital approaches should not displace children’s essential non-digital activities such as unstructured, human-centred play, physical activity and foundational skills like writing with pen and paper.".
