When I think about the happiest moments in my life, I remember when my parents played with my siblings and me when we were young. They didn't just play with us as adults, but they genuinely got into the games and played with us like friends. It was so much fun that we lost track of time. However, those moments were not very frequent, and I sometimes wondered if it was because there weren't many things that both adults and children could fully enjoy together. I believe LEGO is a plaything that both adults and children can be equally engrossed in.

Playfulness at Family Level more often that not brings out everyone's innate way of reasoning and hence creates more understanding within the members involved and more impokrtantly enhances lifelong bonding. Though with the ever dynamic and changing economic spaces, how can this play tool be utilized more, while remaining present to the competing demands of life and still maintaining presence at family?

Play is very important for people of all ages and is very therapeutic. Playing together is also very important as a family and helps to strengthen relationships and have fun. We often think that when we get older we don't need to play anymore. But it's a one of the keys to a healthy life even if your a single person. Playing is an important part of learning in education.
