How do you nurture your inner child?

This loaded wrong for me, so Jaimey's answer consisted of, 'I play with my' - and then a blank space. I was rather dissapointed how the sentence continued.

However, I similarly play with my friends, I live with someone who set up a recording studio in the house and we make songs, just like I did when I was a kid (but then I recorded it with my Fisher Price tape recorder). Also, me and my friends play, we recently played hide and seek and I was hiding in the garden behind a cabbage plant and I heard my friends talking about how girly me room was.

Oh noes!  Bad computer.  But it pretty much went the same as yours, Pica.  I play games with my friends and I've realized that most of my friends are overgrown children. 

I also...play parent to the inner child who's hurt.  If that makes sense.  I encourage myself with the words that I wish I'd had.  Because the inner child isn't always happy.

For me it's less a matter of nurturing the inner child than remembering to put on the outer adult.

• Play -- my wife and I have people over for games routinely, age range is 20-80
• Create -- write, paint, do science, ...
• Learn new stuff -- not necessarily in school-like settings, but, as any child knows, there's a great big universe out there filled with great stuff to find out about or to try doing!
