Problem solving--taking gentle risks

Have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving


Recently I was at the park and this child was climbing on the spider web. The parent would not allow the child to explore  she kept saying be careful you may fall. That is not good words for young children to hear. Exploring and taking risk must be allowed and parents should provide guidance ,support and encouragement. You make the space safe by being there just in case and also if the child slips do not make a big  deal. You can say let's try again  because children need to he encouraging words.
Developing  the muscles in your legs, arms, fingers and wrist are very important. Young children need to be able to control their bodies. When they are able to  control their body it builds their self-esteem and self-confidence.

Do not prevent your child from taking risk.
