The Art of Roughhousing

 It's summer.  Let's face it - those of us with kids at home know that at some point you're going to want to pull your hair out and yell "knock it off" or "stop that".  So instead of losing your cool, arm yourself with a back-up plan.  You'll surprise your kids when you join in the roughhousing and I can almost guarantee all of you will end up laughing.

Highly recommended book (above). Did you know there are many developmental benefits to roughhousing? Kids with sensory needs, problem solving, communication, communication and more.  All of these are benefits to good old fashioned roughhousing. 

 The book is complete with illustrations of some of the roughhousing activities, too!  (heck, there are a few I'd like to try myself!)

Check it out at your local library or bookstore!
