Unstructured

If only you had more unstructured time.

I’m watching my sons create, design, and plan a scene in the basement – complete with foil props, improvised costumes, and who knows what else.

It all resulted from a long unstructured afternoon.

I don’t know many adults who have much unstructured time. I don’t mean leisure time – I’m not talking about vacation.

I’m talking about daily play as part of your routine. Unstructured, unlisted, unassigned.

(Okay, I’ll admit: given an unstructured hour, it would be near impossible to pass up on a nap. But we’re assuming that you’ve had enough days of this to be all caught up on sleep.)

What would you do with an unstructured afternoon?
