We had a lesson today on taking risks and being okay with making mistakes. Our YDC taught the lesson and at the end of the lesson she has brought in two (boiled) eggs...although she didn't tell them they were boiled. She called out a name and tossed it to some kids. The first two caught them (and let out a BIG sigh of relief because they didn't know they were boiled). The last one dropped the egg and was embarrassed and we talked about how it was okay. It was a boiled egg and no harm done. Her relief was huge. We then talked about the things she could say to herself when she makes mistakes. It all seemed very real after feeling a little embarrassed and worried about the interaction.
