🎭 Turn Fear into Fun with Playful Parenting!

Imagine your child’s fears melting away in a fit of giggles—sounds magical, right? ✨ Dr. Larry Cohen shares a simple, powerful technique: power reversal play! In this playful approach, YOU become the bumbling, goofy monster, and your child becomes the fearless hero. 💪
This type of role-reversal lets your child step into a position of power, building their confidence and helping them tackle anxiety in a safe, fun way. Whether they’re scared of monsters, bugs, or even the big slide at the park, play can help them feel in control of their fears.
👹 Example: Pretend you’re the clumsiest, silliest monster ever—tripping over stairs or freezing when they yell “STOP!” Your child will laugh as they outsmart you, gaining the courage to face challenges in real life.
Play is more than just fun—it’s healing. 💕 Let’s use it to help our kids feel brave, empowered, and connected. 🌟
