I received a newsletter from the Alliance of Childhood, packed full of play information to share.

The most exciting is a New PBS documentary airing today in the Michigan area on PBS and nationwide on PBS stations in May.

Where Do the Children Play? was produced by PBS affiliate WFUM in Flint, Michigan, directed by award-winning documentarian Christopher Cook, and originated with the work of Elizabeth Goodenough of the University of Michigan. The Alliance is working with them and a number of organizations on an outreach campaign.

PBS broadcasts: Where Do the Children Play? will be broadcast in Michigan on all public television stations on Tuesday, April 15 at 9 p.m. It will be available to other PBS stations around the country in mid-May. If you would like your local PBS station to air it, call and ask to speak with the program director. Find contact information at www.pbs.org/stationfinder. Let the program director know the film is on the APT list of films (and therefore free to most stations). Direct her to www.wfum.org/childrenplay for more information.

It looks like a really interesting look at Play in our contemporary world.
