What is Risky Play?

Risky Play is an experience that involves thrill and excitement, that allows children to test themselves and find out what happens next. It can look different for children depending on their comfort levels and abilities. Risky play provides children with an opportunity to figure out their own limits, boundaries, and comfort abilities through playing.

What are loose parts?

Loose parts are the natural or upcycled materials used to encourage creativity, curiosity, joy, and fine-motor skills through child-led play. Children take the direction and can manipulate the materials however they imagine.
