My definition of play includes motivating, stimulating, and supporting a child's health and development; often overlapping in the various realms-physical, intellectual, emotional, social, spiritual, vocational, etc. 💙⁠
⁠
This is just one silly activity that my boys love and is so meaningful to me. ✈️⁠
⁠
It includes a social and emotional connection as I hold his hands and look him in the eyes, triggering a sense of love and security in the brain knowing he has my full attention and trusting I won't let him fall; the physical strength, balance and postural adjustments (through activating his vestibular system) that will support his motor skills; and his intellectual system can be triggered with curiosity to test and see if he can fly without the support of holding hands or asking for more as I sway my legs side to side. ⬆️⁠
⁠
I encourage you to try something today that triggers some of these responses that motive, stimulate, and support your child's health and development. 🧠⁠

If that sounds frustrating to you, imagine the child! They work so long and hard in a single setting to finally accomplish something that's been difficult for a while, then the environment changes, causing them to become distracted, flustered, and unable to replicate their previous success.⁠
⁠
For example, my little guy had been practicing kicking and trapping a soccer ball with dad last week. After several successful passes, he started feeling proud and confident with his new skills. Fast forward to the play yard at school this week where it was noisy, there were 20+ kids around shouting to kick them the ball, and they were playing on asphalt instead of grass. The conditions were completely different, he wasn't able to perform and he was beyond bummed.⁠
⁠
It is often like this for kids for a variety of skills they may be working on. Just because they've managed to potty train at school or write within the lines in therapy or tie their shoes at home doesn't guarantee they will be able to do it in another setting without practice and repetition with the new conditions of that environment.⁠
⁠
Believe me, I preach independence often and early but as parents and educators, there’s a balance that needs to be found between having expectations and providing encouragement.⁠
⁠
Let's be more aware of how all the little changes can actually have big impact on our kids.⁠
⁠
Tag a parent or teacher who needs to hear this!⁠
