Our 4.5yo daughter is pretty much a mountain goat. If it\'s climbable, she will. So the falling down is inevitable.
We started asking, \"Are you okay?\" and then waiting for the answer. If she cries, we scoop her up and coo over her boo-boo. Most of the time, though, she gets up before we can open our mouths and says, \"I\'m okay.\"
She\'s learned that falling down is normal and NBD. I\'m just hoping that this carries over into the summer when we finally take the training wheels off the bike.
