If you have an overbearing need to over-supervise your children, know children who are over-supervised, or where raised by the over-supervised method, then you should purchase “Fifty Dangerous Things (You Should Let Your Children Do)” by Gever Tulley. The idea behind the 130 page book is to allow children to learn about danger through experience.

50 experiments that can potentially cause minor harm to someone—like putting a 9V battery to one’s tongue—that help to teach people lessons about danger in a controlled environment. Perfect for that over-supervised kid that still needs to learn a few of life’s lessons. This book going somewhat along the same lines as the “Dangerous Book for Boys” and the “Daring Book for Girls“.

Seems like a really nifty book idea and worth the $24. Available at Amazon.
