messy play isn’t just a giggle… reason # 43

*** Growing Confidence ***
Because we say ‘yes’ to children while they are playing at Messy Monkeys and praise the choices they make their confidence grows and grows as they trust in their own decision making. How odd it must be to be a child having to confirm to adult expectations all day long… how lovely it must be to have people praise you for the choices you make as a child for a change… even if that means painting your feet green or seeing what happens when their tip glitter into shaving foam!
