Can parents help their kids climb?
Children excel in roped tree climbing because they generally have low body weight, are fearless, and have an abundance of energy. Most kids can do it quite easily after we’ve taught them how. It’s a wonderful way to build childrens’ self-confidence — they feel so proud when they can show off their achievement to parents and siblings! In most cases, we request that parents stay out from under the tree and allow their children to go tree climbing on their own. If someone needs help, TCI instructors are trained and eager to do whatever it takes to help a climber be successful.
