Respond to the following prompts by integrating the readings and videos from Module 2. Please discuss the following prompts in 2-3 pages:
1. How does play shape a child’s identity? What did you think of Mike Lanza’s ideas about bullies, sissies and the quest for the perfect neighborhood/”playborhood”?
2. What are the differences between child driven and adult driven play? Is one “structured” and the other un-structured?
3. What are the benefits and limitations of risky play?
4. What scared you most about The Land? What brought you joy?
How is The Land similar or different from your own memories of childhood play? Do you think you would support this type of play environment for the children in your life?
