50 Risks to Take with Your Kids is an easy-to-use framework of challenges for children aged up to 10. You’ll find risks that build physical skills, social confidence and character development, plus some all-important parenting risks that will encourage you to think a little differently about raising children.

It’s about teaching kids to recognise and assess risk before they enter those ‘risky’ teenage years and about readying them to take on life and all that it brings.
