OverviewAdventures in Risky Play: What is Your Yes? goes to the heart of children's risky play. As educators working with young children, we all have boundaries and feelings around what risky play is allowed. Rusty Keeler encourages you to realize that much of what feels risky to a child is not necessarily truly dangerous. When we as educators and caretakers examine our relationship with risk, observe carefully and allow children to play and confront risk on their own terms, we see them develop, hold their locus of control and make choices on how to navigate the bumpy terrain of a situation. What better teaching tool for life is there?
