Why playfulness matters in parenting, expert says
While speaking to Briefly News, lay counsellor and emotional support expert Astrid Daries said the following:
"Walt Disney once said, "Laughter is timeless. Imagination has no age. And dreams are forever." As the visionary behind some of the most beloved characters in the world, Disney brought joy and laughter to children, teenagers, and adults alike. His creations continue to inspire generations, reminding us of the power of playfulness and imagination."
Playfulness and a sense of humour not only make people happy but also promote empathy and understanding, according to the emotional support expert.
"In difficult times, parents can demonstrate to their children that resilience is a key part of the human spirit—that even in the face of challenges, we can find reasons to smile, Astrid added.
She went on to add that playfulness and humour also enhance creative thinking, encouraging children to explore the world with curiosity. This helps young minds connect with others in meaningful ways and bring positivity into situations where setbacks and obstacles may arise.
"By embracing laughter and imagination, we cultivate a mindset that sees possibilities rather than limitations, fostering both emotional well-being and personal growth."
