Supporting Kids in Play

Supporting Kids in Play (SKIP) aims to support the childhood right to free play. Free play supports the development of the whole-child. Our mission is to advocate for and develop play programs that nurture children's physical, cognitive, social, and emotional well-being. Our flagship program, Learning Expanded Through Active Play (L.E.A.P.), facilitates child-directed free play in the elementary school setting.
