AnonyMouse_4869 Posted September 16, 2013 Posted September 16, 2013 Hi everyone, I'm struggling a bit with my boys. This year I have more boys than ever really interested in weapon play, catching games, batman, spiderman but also playing rockets and ANYTHING physical outside. We do not have a big space outside and (I know this is probably frowned upon, but in order for us to have free flow and limited accidents) I don't let them run full pelt - we do have times in the day when we go onto the large playground to let off steam! I've decided that my normal mantra of 'we don't shoot each other here' is inappropriate because they get so involved in their play and I really want to extend and support it - now that I've grown as a practitioner!! Any ideas of what to do to channel this into something meaningful?? Lucie
