I think that both bonding and playtime are equally important . Your gliders need time to let loose all their energy that they can't excercise in their cage, even if it is really large. It's the way kids feel about school ( well, me at least *grin*): It gets boring if you have to stay in one area for awhile and never get a chance to just run around .

But try introducing toys in your playtime to make it more valuable to you. "Fisher Feathers", those little things for cats that they sell with the dangling feather on the end are a BIG favorite with my fuzzies, and they're like little cats- they like to bat at stuff, attack and chew, and chase, because they are partly predatory animals (bugs and stuff) and they get a lot of enjoyment out of stuff like that.

Another good thing to try might be the rolly-balls where you put them inside the ball and they can still move around. Hope it helps!
