Playtime isn\\u2019t just for fun -- psychologists who study children\\u2019s learning have found that kids learn best through play. Kathy Hirsh-Pasek, PhD, of Temple University, talks about why kids need playtime, what playful learning looks like in a classroom, how technology is changing children\\u2019s play, why adults need recess, too, and what parents can do to encourage more play in their kids\\u2019 lives.
