The Best Cure For Children’s Anxiety? Free Play!


Listen Later

One of the main causes of the increasing levels of anxiety in children today is the lack of free play. If they cannot have unstructured and unsupervised play, they might not know how to handle pain, shape a resilient mindset, or take courageous leaps. Dr. Tim Jordan describes the benefits of letting girls have free play, taking risks, and being responsible for their own safety.
