In this episode of the Playful Connection Podcast, Eddie Shin will share four practical and simple tips on how to problem solve using play, as well as how each tip will help you connect more with children and teens.

1. Role-Playing Scenarios
2. Puzzle Games
3. Creative Problem-Solving with Art
4. Team Challenges

Teaching children and teens to solve problems through play is like giving them the tools to navigate a maze. You walk alongside them, showing them the way when needed, but ultimately letting them find the path on their own. Each playful problem they solve strengthens their ability to handle the twists and turns of life, while simultaneously deepening the bond between you as their trusted guide.
