What if the secret to great ideas wasn’t hard work, but play?

In The Playground Principle, Vicky Baker makes the case that fun isn’t frivolous—it’s the spark that powers our most creative thinking. From doodling to daydreaming, games to laughter, she shows how rediscovering a spirit of play can unlock imagination, boost problem-solving, and make innovation not only more effective, but more enjoyable.

Through inspiring stories, practical exercises, and science-backed insights, Baker reveals how play helps us experiment without fear, connect ideas in unexpected ways, and stay energised when challenges arise.

Whether you’re stuck in a rut, leading a team, or simply craving a more joyful way to create, The Playground Principle will help you harness fun as your most powerful fuel for ideas.

Because when you treat life like a playground, everything becomes a possibility.
