Description

Course ID 58779
Children need to take risks in order to grow. Without “risk”, children can either become too timid to try out new things or take inappropriate risks. Taking a risk can be climbing to the top of the climber or asking to join a group of children in play. It is having the courage to try something new – physically, emotionally, and cognitively. Learn how set up learning spaces and design activities give children opportunities to take risks. We will explore how to inspire imagination and creative thinking.
