New article: Supporting parents to understand the benefits of ‘risky’ play

We have just published an article by Dr Lala Manners which takes the idea of risk and challenge play into a new sphere - that which engages parents. We can work as hard and as well as we can to support and motivate children to take risks but getting their parents and carers on board might be more problematic! In this insightful article Lala gives us some useful background which might explain why parents feel anxious and gives us hints and tips on how to help them see the benefit of such challenging play.
