Roughhousing and Superhero Play: Why Children Love It and How We Can Support
The Alliance for Early Childhood Presents: Roughhousing and Superhero Play: Why Children Love It and How We Can Support. Children are naturally drawn to various forms of Power Play, such as Rough and Tumble and Superhero play. While these activities come instinctively to children, they often raise concerns for parents. How can we ensure safety without stifling their exploration? In this workshop, we will first reflect on our own experiences and biases regarding this type of play. Then, we’ll explore the learning opportunities children engage in through these games. Finally, we will discuss strategies to support our children in staying safe, having fun, and learning to play collaboratively.
