Tips from a Play Therapist: Limit Setting

One of the joys of working with children is seeing how they lead with curiosity. Children have the wonderful position of finding most people/places/things new and exciting. However, that curiosity can sometimes turn into a headache for parents when that energy goes towards a behavior that is not appropriate. In my experience as a play therapist, I understand that children need room to explore things but limits are needed in that exploration.
