ROUGH & TUMBLE

One of the more controversial of Hugh’s play types, but funnily enough the most common play type found around the globe is rough and tumble play. This talk is designed to take a deeper look at the benefits of this play type and how it leads to the development of empathy and resilience in children. We want to challenge the preconceived assumption that rough play leads to aggressive behaviours and show the extreme importance of allowing and facilitating this play type.
