Great tips about safe ways to play with your children/grandchildren from Parent’s Magazine.
1. Don’t toss your baby in the air. Instead hold him/her close against your chest and jump up and down. It’s still exciting but there’s no risk of hurting baby.
2. Never tickle torture your child/grandchild, it is very painful.
3. Wrestle with your child/grandchild but make sure you are in a safe space.
Good reminders. I saw a teenage relative throwing a one year old really high in the air and catching him at the park the other day. The babies mother was right there and didn’t say a word. It was making me crazy. So dangerous.
It would have made me crazy too. I think they just don’t understand the dangers.
