It's time to Play

It's that time again and we are giddy to share September's word for the One Word Project. With our super-fun sponsor Peek...Aren't You Curious we figured what better word than the word play? Sure it's back to school season but that doesn't mean the play has to stop. As a matter of fact, this is the perfect time of year to break out of the norm and really get into doing what makes you happy.

The folks behind the kids clothing store Peek...Aren't You Curious couldn't agree more. They believe in playing in a big way. Yes, they actually want kids to read books and ride bikes IN their stores while moms shop. I know. A dream store! But above and beyond the store was built on the concept that childhood is a joyful experience still open to parents. You heard us! Play is not just kid stuff! No way.

You know how we roll on this point. The One Word Project is all yours to interpret however you'd like through your unique and inspired images. All you have to do is add them to our OWP Flickr Pool. Then, each day we feature one here on our site on the OWP page. We can't wait to see what kind of fun you'll cook up along the way this September!

Without further adieu, let the play begin.

What a perfect word for September..as everyone returns to work and school. A reminder that we still need to 'play'!

Sometimes play is <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/jesspunky/3800065590/" rel="nofollow">serious</a> business for us.

A reminder to cherish this time, because playing is often gone too soon.

Great theme!!! I've been on 'vacation' from the One Word Project for the summer because of all our farming but now that it is FINALLY winding down I can't wait to start back up. With seven kids do you think I can take some good pictures representing this topic?
