"As a child life specialist, I’ve spent my career helping children use play to process difficult situations.
Mia’s resource has been incredibly helpful.
I love how clear and simple the suggestions are — perfect for those who might not feel naturally playful.
As a mom of two, this is invaluable.
Motherhood often feels challenging and defeating, but this resource brings positivity."

I absolutely LOVE this.
It's so easy to buy a digital resource and forget about it, so the extra features are so useful.
I already tried the "villain laughs" idea with my daughter and it was right up her alley.
Any time I have a chance to laugh with her I feel amazing and relieved...
Like, OH this parenting thing doesn't have to ALWAYS be so tedious!
Parenting has often felt quite heavy to me. Your ideas have brought us many moments of lightness and joy. 🙏🏽
