Video on Play in everyday life

For my movement education class an assignment I had to do was watch a video about play. It was about how everyone needs play in their life. It showed examples of animals playing with one another and when people watch it they think they are fighting. If you watch the clips closely you see that the animals don't have their claws out and they are just playing with one another. Many people think the opposite of play is work but in fact it is depression. When people don't play they get depressed. They also showed a clip of how people at work can hold meetings in a fun way and it can actually be considered play. I thought the video was interesting and I learned a lot by listening to the speaker.

  1. That sounds like a really interesting video, you'll have to post the link if you have it. Movement ed was one of my favorite classes but I don't remember ever watching anything like that. It is funny how we all assume animals are fighting. I've heard that a lot of corporate business hold corporate retreats taht allow that workers to enjoy time and play during the days and hold different meetings throughout the day. I was never sure if it was true or just a rumor, but it sounds to me that it just might be true since people try to hold meetings in fun ways.
