    OOL_0082 Building Executive Functioning Skills
    2025/04/15
    Nikolai Pizarro of Raising Readers joins host Annie Friday to discuss the relationship between adult caregiver/parent and child and the various ways we can support each other and growing or maintaining our executive functioning skills. Nikolai shares her vision of de-centering school and remembering the way all things are learned is relational. By focusing on relationship, we can support our young people learning with or without school. Building executive functioning isn't just about reducing screentime and creating tasks to keep kids busy. It's also about finding true meaning in our choice of activities and showing up as our authentic selves in our unschooling and schooling experiences. Thanks for listening!

    In PHQP_0015 Hazard Mitigation, Jeff explores the importance of supporting risk-taking in children's play by effectively mitigating hazards. He outlines three hazard categories and shares five practical mitigation strategies.

Thanks for pushing play. I'm Jeff Johnson on with the show. So I'm out for a walk the other day, as I want to do, and I walked by the local playground where I've seen kids doing things I've told stories about on this show before. And they're, the playground is, excuse me, full of cardboard. And I've got no idea where it came from. But they, the kids had a bunch of cardboard boxes, maybe somebody moved in the neighborhood or anything. And they had some of them, the ends open, and they were, they were put together to form a maybe 12 foot long tunnel. And a couple kids were building a suit of armor or robot or Iron Man suit or something out of them, covering themselves. And a couple kids were using hunks of cardboard to try to surf down the slide. And some kids were rolling around, hiding in the cardboard, and on and on it went. And continued my walk, came back an hour and a half later, walking by going the other direction. And just a couple kids headed for the, heading for the nearby dumpster with the last bits of cardboard. So somehow the cardboard showed up and was a wonderful play material for a couple hours. And then they tidied up and went on about their day. So that was, that was kind of great. I liked, liked seeing it. It reminded me of my, my well-spent childhood. So let's get into this episode. Topic one, hazard mitigation. And so we talked earlier about risk and how risk is important. How there are, are basically four types of risk. There's physical risk, which is what we consider the one we spend most of our time on. There's emotional risk, there's social risk, and there's cognitive risk. And one of the things that we want to do, if we want to support risk-taking, which we should, is to get better at mitigating hazards. So let's go through a little review of the terminology first. So danger is something that may cause harm. Again, my favorite example, a kitten. A kitten may cause harm. Hazard equals a danger not easily seen or predicted. So the, the teeth and the claws of that little kitten are the most dangerous parts. And so those are the hazards. Those are what makes the kitten dangerous. And a risk is something you can observe, evaluate, and choose. So if you're four and you've never held a baby kitten before. A baby kitten before? Isn't that kitten as a baby cat? Maybe baby kitten is redundant. Anyway, if you've never held a kitten before, you can evaluate that situation and decide whether you want to hold the kitten or not. Where hazard mitigation comes in is you, as an adult, informing that child about those potential dangers that they might not see or anticipate. You can say, okay, you can hold the kitten, but you need to be, need to be aware they've got, they got sharp little teeth in their little mouths and they got razor blades on the end of their fingertips, and you've got to hold them carefully. And if the kitten gets scared, or if you grab them too hard, or you antagonize him, he might try to claw or bite you. And so that is an example of hazard mitigation. Hazard mitigation might also be wearing long sleeves when you're holding kittens for the first time, because long sleeves kind of protect your arms a little bit from, from kitten teeth and claws. And so those, making kids aware of those things is really what hazard mitigation is about.

    In PHQP 0014 Heavy Work, Jeff dives into the wonders of kids pushing, pulling, and hauling their way to growth. This episode unpacks how heavy work boosts strength and coordination, brings calm, and more.

I'm Jeff Johnson. Thank you for pushing play. On with the show. So, uh, oh look my slides are off. How untidy. Um, so I found a found a new dolphin bone at the beach the the other day to add to my loose parts collection. It's kind of broken down and battered but I kind of like it. I've got I've got five others two two other vertebrae and and a couple of a couple of ribs. So my plan is to eventually build build my own dolphin which I really look forward to. I find another bone every every eight months or so along the beach. It's been delightful. I'm pretty sure they're dolphins. 98% sure they're dolphins. They're not human and the we've got a lot more dolphins in the area than we do whales and they are mammal bones. So I'm assuming dolphins. If I find out otherwise I will let you know. So I'm excited for that growing collection of loose parts. Topic one for this episode is pretty much gonna be the theme of the whole show is heavy work. So heavy work is activity that pushes or pulls against the body or involves carrying and this is something that is really beneficial to kids. We'll get into that in a minute but this activity is just pushing pulling and carrying is is something kids are kind of wired and interested in and we should figure out how to how to work more of that into into their days. So heavy work involves creating force and defying gravity and so think about all the interesting ways kids apply gravity. Running is pushing really they're pushing their feet against the ground to propel themselves when they run. Jumping is pushing. Jumping is heavy work. Climbing is heavy work. Arms are pulling. Legs are pushing. So think about all those kind of activities. Hauling heavy buckets of sand. Pulling a wagon. Pushing somebody on a sled or pushing somebody who's sitting on a skateboard or riding a bike or riding rollerblades or climbing a tree. All of these kind of things. Digging is a form of heavy work and so it's all applying force and defying gravity. Pushing is applying force away from the body. Pulling, applying force toward the body. And carrying, moving while supporting something. And so these three things are a really big part of sensory integration and physical development. I mentioned heavy work in previous episodes but really for sensory integration there's a lot going on here because they're understanding their proprioceptive system, the awareness of their body in space. They're building their vestibular system, their sense of balance. They're learning to understand their interoceptive system, all of the feelings that they have going on inside of them. Plus they're building muscle strength and control, hand-eye coordination and not just hand-eye, hand-foot coordination, visual tracking skills, listening skills are often involved in heavy work and on and on it goes. And so there's a lot of good learning here going on. And the problem of course is heavy work requires kids to be up and moving and active and a lot of early learning programs are adverse to kids actively engaging their bodies. I mean, look, they might have scheduled physical activity time. Maybe it's free play out in the playground. Maybe it's adult-led calisthenics.
