Riskier Play for Safer Kids
February 4, 2019Hey FC Parents,
A big part of the Systema Curriculum at FightClub is the concept of play. An how important it is for kids to learn and through play. From my experience the riskier the play the better the learning.
Safeguarding children by encouraging them to take risks may seem counterintuitive, but you may be more convinced after watching this wonderful episode of the Nature of Things called The Power of Play it sheds light on the hidden benefits of doing one of the most fun, and often undervalued, activities: just playing around.
Watch episode The Power of Play
With all we learn about the importance of play, it’s no wonder that there’s a growing number of experts, who are pushing for more play for children — specifically, more “risky play” letting our kids engage in freer, play is one of the best things we can do to keep them safe.
More parents need to understand this concept so please share this with fellow parents, neighbors and friends alike.
See you at FC,
