Free to Learn: Why Unleashing the Instinct to Play Will Make Our Children Happier, More Self-Reliant, and Better Students for Life is about how children's natural curiosity should be nurtured. It is a book that describes how our "instinct to play" is wired into our brains from birth and it is important that we recognize this instinct as a way of learning, rather than an act of selfishness. By unleashing this instinct in new ways, children are more likely to become self-reliant and happier. This will help them succeed in school and throughout their lives.

Whether it's a game of hide and seek or a board game, when children play freely and creatively, they learn things that matter: how to cooperate with others, share, reason, and think critically. The downside is that these days we are getting more and more stressed out about the time we spend playing with our kids. In Free to Learn Peter Gray argues for an approach which embraces the joys of play by teaching our kids important life skills like empathy, self-control, creativity.
