My daughter was literally climbing before she could walk and I encouraged it, biting my nails as I watch her unsteadily climbing bar ladders but never stopped, grabbing or helping her.
They have been, as I call it, 'dumbing down' the parks in my neighborhood. Have been since I was a child. Everything is so...safe now. What happened to real slides, swings that swing (but that's an easy WD-40 fix), those carosel things that you hold onto while running around then jump on and spin? We have one park that I've been going to my whole life, there is not one toy there from my childhood, at some point all the toys I played on as a kid were deemed dangerous and replaced by something 'safer'.
