If I could go back and change one parenting thing I would read to my kids every night.

I don’t care how advanced AI gets or how popular electronic devices are; never stop buying books and reading to children.

Risky play is great for kids!

What do I mean by risky play?
Risky play includes activities that challenge children and help them understand their limits. It might seem a little scary, but it builds confidence, problem-solving skills, and resilience.

Here are some benefits of risky play:
✨Builds confidence
✨Inspires creativity
✨Teaches safety and risk management
✨Strengthens problem-solving skills
✨Encourages physical activity

Risky play helps kids grow in so many ways! Just make sure the environment is safe and supervised, and watch them thrive.

Some of these ideas might not be suitable for daycare, but I wanted to share this knowledge anyway, so please be kind in the comments.😫😅
