Takeaways:
- Risky play, such as climbing trees or engaging in physical activities, helps children develop proprioception and core strength, which can calm and organize their bodies.
- Excessive screen time can affect depth perception and self-regulation, leading to overactive nervous systems and decreased safety awareness.
- Encouraging child-led play and allowing children to take risks can foster resilience and self-confidence.
- Parents should trust their instincts and seek support from a team of professionals and resources to meet their child's needs.
- Building a team of support and prioritizing play can enhance homeschooling and promote overall child development.
