Finding great toys that are engaging and fun for your children is a win win for all. One such game in our family is Rush Hour, and you may have seen me on the floors of restaurants, airports and certainly our apartment scavenging for the mini toy cars and trucks so my kids can move on to the next challenge. So you can imagine our delight to speak with our guest who heads the company that makes this game and so many others.  More on Rachele: Rachele Harmuth is passionate about play, creating products that make an impact on kids’ lives and spreading the word that we can build kids resilience and MESH skills through play.

What makes for a great toy? With Rachele Harmuth from Thinkfun

Welcome to No Silly Questions, with your hosts Danielle Freilich and Jordana Fruchter, two New York City educators, school leaders and friends. We were inspired to develop No Silly Questions, after noticing how often our friends were calling us with education-related questions for their kids! Asking us for our insight on everything from the different pedagogical approaches, to developmental milestones in the first few years of life, to navigating how to support their child’s learning needs - you name it! We could see there was a need to provide parents with relatable, research-based answers from true experts in the field. On this podcast, you’ll hear from pediatric neuropsychologists, elected school officials, ed. tech entrepreneurs, play advocates, professors of multiple intelligence theory and more to bridge the gap of information and strengthen your parent tool kit. We want all parents to know that there is no such thing as a silly question.
