Issac Newton once said “What goes up must come down”, but what on Earth are we supposed to do when children climb up too high and call out for help?

Recently, we’ve witnessed several occurrences where tiny climbers reach great heights only to get stuck when it comes to getting back down to the ground.

In today’s podcast episode, we are deep diving into the physiology behind this and what adults can do to coach children down from great heights.

In this episode, we discuss:

✔️ Fear Of Heights vs. Height Vertigo

✔️The physiology behind “Height Vertigo” and its impact on the senses

✔️Our 4 top tips to respectfully coach children down from heights
