I had an amazing conversation with Iben about parenting, and learned some great tips on raising your kids to live more independent, resilient, and happier lives.  She explained the importance of play in kids lives and how it is a major factor in creating all of those things.  Iben offers an online course on how to raise happy children the Danish way, and her website has several great resources and learning opportunities as well.
