Dear Lucky Children of Dallas,
2011 is going to be a very, very fun year for you! On Saturday, January 29th, Kidville Dallas is going to celebrate its Grand Opening - and from there on out, you will be so busy playing and discovering and imagining, time will literally fly!
Kidville Dallas is going to be amazing. I have had the pleasure of working with the creative, inspirational new owners, Charmaine Tang and Amy Zicarelli, on the most adorable, activity-packed play village you could imagine. Your very own child-sized play village will include a 50's style Gas Station, adorable Diner, charming Beauty Boutique, and activity-centered Market. In the center of town will be your very own McKinney Avenue Trolley ready to transport you wherever you need to go.
Children and parents alike will be delighted by the fun and activities available at Kidville Dallas. Mark your calendars now: January 28th is the start of something BIG!

Parenting: When Less is More (or Never Underestimate the Power of Play)
Anyone who has browsed through our website knows we at Lilliput Play Homes are big believers in celebrating the fun and magic of childhood. We encourage hands-on play time and build our playhouses to facilitate that end. We know (instinctively and by reading all the research) that inspiring creativity and imagination in young children is vital in helping them discover and reach their full potential.
I read this article today by Dr. Jim Taylor on The Lost Art of Play. It is a wonderful, concise piece on how we as parents can help our children recapture the magic and value of play time. I hope you will take a minute to read it.
