“The opposite of play isn’t work. It’s boredom.” – Dr. Stewart Brown, National Institute of Play

It’s time to take a break from work and come play with your colleagues – recess style!

In this hour session, your play facilitator will guide you through a few games and activities, where you will have an opportunity to escape from the routine, use your imagination and meet new people in the Carleton community. Each activity will be designed to breathe some creativity and adventure and integrate different play techniques.

This Healthy Workplace session is family friendly and is open to all housemates and playmates.
