As parents, our instinct is often to keep our children as safe as possible. But does removing every risk actually help them?
In this episode of This Mamma Chats, I talk about risky play and why children need opportunities to test their limits, challenge themselves and build confidence through play.
Risky play does not mean putting children in dangerous situations. It can look like climbing higher, balancing, moving quickly, exploring unfamiliar spaces or deciding for themselves whether they feel comfortable attempting something.
I talk about the difference between a risk and a hazard, why constantly saying “be careful” can sometimes get in the way, and how giving children appropriate freedom can support independence, resilience, problem-solving and confidence.
For parents, watching risky play can definitely be uncomfortable. But sometimes the best thing we can do is stay close, trust our children and give them the opportunity to discover what their bodies are capable of.
