“The job of children in all species is to play,” says Lenore Skenazy. “Mother Nature wouldn’t put the drive in us to play if it weren’t important.” Skenazy is the author of the popular book, “Free-Range Kids: How to Raise Safe, Self-Reliant Children (Without Going Nuts with Worry).” Calling herself the “Generalissimo of the Free-Range Kids Movement,” Skenazy has shared her theories about the importance of allowing kids to go out and play everywhere, from The Daily Show to Oprah, and she’s been featured in just about every major publication in the country, from Time magazine to The New Yorker. Skenazy’s Free-Range Kids philosophy is in some ways the opposite of the do-everything and tightly controlling helicopter-parenting style. She believes that parents must fight “the belief that our children are in constant danger from creeps, kidnapping, germs, grades, flashers, frustration, failure, baby snatchers, bugs, bullies, men, sleepovers and/or the perils of a non-organic grape.” Her philosophy has struck a cord with many folks, making Skenazy one of the most sought-after parenting lecturers

on the planet. Just before giving a recent talk at Harvard Medical School, Skenazy took some time out to share her theory about the importance of play, especially outdoors. “We think we can prevent everything, but we can’t,” Skenazy says. “What we really need to do is give kids free, unsupervised time.” She feels that most kids 12 and under are almost never allowed to play free from supervision or structured environments. And this lack of freedom is not only damaging to their development, it’s against their nature. Skenazy points out that studies have shown that even ravens and gazelles play when they’re young, even though it doesn’t appear to make sense from an evolutionary standpoint. Gazelles are known to play a form of tag out in the open, which seems like it’s a waste of calories and invitation for predators, thus lessening their chances for survival. But it doesn’t. In fact, playing, as Skenazy explains, teaches young animals of all kinds what they need to know to survive and thrive. Gazelles learn to run and chase and hide. Children learn a lot more. “There are lots of lessons children learn by playing that are very hard to learn in a classroom,” she said. “That’s why the

drive to play is so strong. When kids can get out and freely play with their friends, they learn how to get along with others. They learn how to adapt and problem-solve. They learn how to act appropriately, how to focus, how to challenge themselves and persevere because they want to get better. By playing, we learn lessons that we need to be successful in life.” Skenazy says the other important lessons kids learn from being allowed to go out and play on their own with friends or family is trust and self-confidence. “Kids need to not only feel that you love them, but that you trust them. When we all think back to the people who meant the most to us as kids, it’s the people who believed in us. When parents do everything for their children, they feel loved, but not believed in,” she says. Skenazy has two basic pieces of advice for parents. The first is to “believe in your kids and your community.” The second is simply to let kids do the things you loved to do as a child. “Why would we prevent our kids from doing what we loved to do as children, which was usually playing outside with our friends?” Skenazy says. tws

CAMP: THEN AND NOW

BY IRIS FANSHAW

t’s already mid-April. Spring vacation is over and ski season is going the way of backyard snow. Now it’s time for parents and kids to turn their thoughts to summer camp. Whether children need to get into nature or not, parents openly need a break, or at least that’s how many of us were raised in the pre-helicopter-parenting days. For whatever reason we were sent off, many of us recall the crummy crafts, the flag lowering at sundown and those summer friends with a distinct fondness. Camp was a time to get away from annoying siblings and stern, overworked parents, a time to cultivate new skills, to make new friends and, of course, to have more fun than a barrel of monkeys. Then, we wrote letters home, mostly asking after our pets and begging for care packages. My grandmother was an easy touch and sent me Rice Krispy Treats with regularity. Alas, I, always had to share them with others (lesson learned). Now, kids get emails, texts and communicate with each other by Snapchat. And their gluten-free care packages are drone-dropped. Then, we made crafts from things like balsa wood, maca-

roni, clay and toilet-paper-roll cardboard; now, kids opt for video games and 3-D printing. We wore uniforms where I went to camp; now, kids pack their teeny shorts, or baggy shorts, depending on one’s gender identity. Campers received patches to be sewn onto their uniforms for such abilities as helpfulness, manners and being a return camper. Now, campers come with tattoos and cover themselves in henna. Being voted a head camper was a big status accomplishment, then. Now, kids are enrolled in leadership programs. We swam in questionable lakes, canoed and earned patches for our rowing abilities. Now, pristine pools with Olympic training programs and stern coaches are de rigueur. There was always tetherball back in the day and even a dodgy game of dodgeball. Now, kids may learn the fine art of festival Hula-Hoop dancing. We had planned visits with our brother and sister camps (no mingling!); now, coed cabins are the norm. Jacks, homespun plays and capture-the-flag were all part of our carefree lives for those precious weeks. Now? The same, but different. tws

Grow confidence at theatre camp

BY YANNA LANTZ

he arts economy in the U.S. is a multibillion-dollar industry. From schools to businesses, creativity continues to be one of the top skills recruiters look for in hiring. Creativity is also an exceptional trait to have in life. Music can boost brain development in children, and helps with problem solving. Dance teaches coordination, timing and poise. Visual arts teach observation and patience, and theatre teaches confidence, innovation and collaboration. All of them boost resilience and the importance of practice. The Wood River Valley is known across the country as one of the best small artistic communities, and for good reason. Opportunities abound for young artists to revel and play in the world of arts during the summer months from the tactile to the imaginative. Both St. Thomas Playhouse and nexStage Theatre offer comprehensive programming for kids as young as 4 yearsold to explore the exciting world of theatre. St. Thomas Playhouse’s Company B, June 12-24, and Company B2, August 7-18, is a Valley favorite for theatre camp. This year, Company B will produce “Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory, Jr.” and Company B2

will put on “Disney’s 101 Dalmatians Kids.” “Company B is a two-week summer day camp designed for children ages 4 years old to rising eighth-graders,” explained Brett Moellenberg, managing director. “In each session, we produce a full-scale musical for children. The children also help to create sets and props for the shows to give them the full experience of putting on a musical.” High school teens and young adults have the opportunity to be involved with St. Thomas Playhouse’s Summer Theater Project “Godspell,” with auditions from noon to 2 p.m. April 29-30. The production will rehearse May 7 through June 20. “Summer Theater Project is a tuition-free production for teens and young adults, produced in a professional atmosphere,” Moellenberg said. “We try to create an environment that is similar to rehearsal and performance environments outside of the Valley. We aim to produce challenging material from both a thematic and character perspective, and this year we are very excited to be working on ‘Godspell.’” To learn more about St. Thomas Playhouse’s Company B, Summer Theater Project and SPACC, a one-week sleep-away conservatory camp, visit stthomasplayhouse.org or call (208) 726-5349, ext. 16.

NexStage Theatre’s Summer Stages is a three-week day camp for kids ages 4-15 that will run July 3-21 at Community School in Sun Valley. This year, Summer Stages will produce “Peter Pan.” “At Summer Stages, we teach all aspects of things theatre,” said Kathy Wygle, managing director. “Kids have art, dance, music and produce a play at the end that everyone is in. For most of the kids, it is really about growing their confidence and giving them the tools to stand up and speak in front of their peers without being nervous. We also want to teach them how to work with others and emphasize the importance of teamwork.” Camp Little Laugh is a oneweek overnight acting camp that will run August 6-11 at Camp Sawtooth. “Kids are in cabins and we have nightly activities for team bonding, in addition to their day classes,” Wygle said. “At the end, we have a public performance for all the parents and friends to come and see. Over all these years of doing camps, I’ve heard many people talk about their experience. You never know; it could be a life-altering experience for someone.” To find out more about nexStage’s Summer Stages and Camp Little Laugh, visit nexstagetheater.org/education or call (208) 726-9124. tws
