Halloween gives us a rare opportunity to explore emotions through play.
In this short and meaningful Leadership Parenting episode, we look at how the thrill of being scared — the racing hearts, the laughter, the pretend monsters — becomes powerful practice for resilience. We’ll talk about why kids love spooky fun, how dressing up helps them experiment with courage and identity, and simple ways to turn Halloween night into a playful exercise in emotional regulation for the whole family. It’s a joyful reminder that sometimes, the best lessons in bravery come wrapped in costumes and candy wrappers.
