Are you ready to Rumble! I hope so because today I want to talk about roughhousing, wrestling, and rough and tumble play. Roughhousing is essentially any activity such as wrestling, pillow fighting, sliding down the stairs, jumping off the bed and many other such activities. Many people are somewhat hesitant about roughhousing but without it you are missing out on a valuable and important way of connecting with your children.
When children are still babies we can connect with them by holding them, gazing into each other’s eyes, soothing and cuddling them. As they get older though there may still be peaceful moments of connection by reading a book together or cuddling, but children are not always in the mood to sit down quietly. The great thing about wrestling is that it is an active interaction that can promote connection and confidence within your children. The message of roughhousing is; “Your power is welcome here. This is a place for you to be strong and connected, without hurting anyone.”
