Outdoor play, risky play, adventure playโฆ itโs crucial for every child.
Thereโs a reason why the phrase, โwell, back in my day ๐ต๐ดโ became so cliche. Itโs because itโs real and itโs relevant.
After working with families and their children for an over a decade, Iโve learned about the processes which children develop the most confidence in themselves, their ability, and their body. In turn, the effects of these positive changes have trickled down into all areas of their life.
If you want to trust your child more, and their ability, you need to let them learn in the environments where they will have the SAFE opportunity to test themselves.
In other words, if youโre a helicopter parent, your child probably needs to fall over a bit more (and you both need to learn that thatโs ok).
