Behaviour

Climbing

Climbing is one of the first ways a young child tests what their body can do: up a ladder, over a rock, onto a tree branch, or across the climbing frame at the playground. It mixes physical daring with careful judgment, and children practise both long before they can explain either. A calm series about climbing shows the whole arc, the wobble, the pause, the choice to go on or come down, so a child sees that hesitation is part of it, not a failure.
