This weekend, we're running "Play in the 1950s" for the Livonia Library. In the event, we'll let kids play with games and toys that were popular with kids in the 1950s. Things like Tiddly Winks, Clue, Candy Land, Scrabble, and more. www.facebook.com/events/78610...

In an interesting turn of events, we'll be headed to Cincinnati this weekend to get a HUGE head start on our plans for advancing our Play mission in Michigan. The amazing playlibrary.org is donating their inventory and furniture to us. This advances our plans in huge ways. Stay tuned!
