Fun is Where you Find it!
Fun Is Where You Find It is a curiosity-filled conversation between mother and son, Trudi Boatwright, Playful Experience Designer and global advocate for the science of play and her 7-year-old co-host, Noah, who brings the honesty, imagination and unfiltered wisdom only a child can offer.
Together, they explore how play shows up in everyday life: in creativity, problem-solving, friendships, courage, silliness, big feelings and the small magical moments we often rush past. Through warm, funny, and surprisingly insightful conversations, Trudi blends research-backed ideas with Noah’s kid-logic brilliance to show how play isn’t something we grow out of — it’s something we grow into.
Perfect for parents seeking simple ways to spark more joy at home, and for adults wanting to reconnect with their playful selves, this podcast is a reminder that play isn’t a luxury… it’s a life skill. And sometimes the youngest voices can teach us the most.
Fun, heart, practical wisdom, and two generations discovering that play truly is where you find it.
