How do I help my child overcome their fear of heights?
assistant
One way to help your child overcome their fear of heights is to slowly build their confidence and familiarity with heights. For example, start at a low level such as standing on a step stool, then gradually increase the height one step at a time, each time allowing the child to become comfortable with the new height. You can also include positive reinforcement such as verbal praise and rewards to acknowledge your child's progress. Additionally, it can be helpful to offer visual supports or distractions, such as a cartoon character or a story, to help distract them from their fear.
