Ep. 26 - The Importance of Risky Play in Child Development (Part 1 of 2) // Sarah Collins
Manage episode 434326242 series 3528287
Christy-Faith and Sarah Collins explore how engaging in risky play is crucial for a child's development. They explore its benefits, such as building confidence, developing motor skills, and regulating the nervous system. They also address the concerns and fears parents have regarding risky play and provide insights on finding a balance between safety and allowing children to take risks. The conversation highlights the need for children to engage in physical activities and play to understand their bodies, develop strength, and improve cognitive and social skills.
Takeaways:
- Risky play involves thrilling and exciting activities that carry a risk of physical injury, such as climbing, exploring heights, and rough and tumble play.
- Engaging in risky play helps children regulate their nervous system, develop strength, and understand their bodies.
- Parents should find a balance between safety and allowing children to take risks, as avoiding all risks can hinder children's development and self-awareness.
- Risky play should be age-appropriate and gradually increased to match a child's capabilities and comfort level.
- Physical activities and play are essential for children's cognitive, social, and motor skill development.
