"Play" Advocate to Visit Evansville

EVPL
Dr. Anthony DeBenedet

Dr. Anthony DeBenedet will promote play for all ages at Central Library on Tuesday

A physician, author, and behavioral science enthusiast will visit Evansville next week to talk about the importance of “play” for all ages. WNIN’s John Gibson has a preview:

Dr. Anthony DeBenedet is the author of the book “Playfull Intelligence: The Power of Living Lightly in a Serious World.”

He will discuss the book and his other works during an event at Central Library.

DeBenedet says play is often underappreciated as a way to reduce stress and to strengthen relationships.

He also stresses the importance of parents playing with their kids.

DeBenedet is the latest guest in the EVPL’s SPEAK series.

He’ll speak at Central Library’s Browning Room Tuesday evening at 7:00.

The event is free.
