Kailan Carr is the author of Screens Away, Time To Play, and the founder of Quiet Book Queen and Crafts In Between. She is on a mission to prioritize play for kids and to reclaim their childhood with less screens and more opportunities for creativity and imagination. In our conversation today, we discuss the idea that as parents of the next generation, we have to prioritize play—not just for our kiddos, but for ourselves as well. Kailan explains why it’s critical that we give context to our kids for how to learn to connect, communicate, and problem solve through real conversations and human connections.

308. Why is there a burrito in my pantry?
In the midst of the always chaotic end-of-school season, I decided to share a story about why it matters that we’re intentional with our kids, and some thoughts on how to get there. In today’s solo episode, I dive into some pressing issues, including effective communication, dealing with lying and trust issues, emotional regulation, building resilience, and self-care strategies. And all of this came up for me during a recent incident involving a late night, a brown paper bag, and a burrito. I think you’ll be able to relate.
