Hi & welcome to the site.
Agree with tutu, any game or activity where a sole winner is the outcome will have opportunities for you to support risk & resilience.
If you operate any sticker system, have you ever been in a position that's required you discuss with a child when they ask why they can't also have a sticker / receive a well done certificate or reward like xx / be first in the line / have played a whole game of lotto to lose because they did not finish filling in their board first / communicate that they want the sitNride car that xx often has / didn't win/come first in a running race / wasn't chosen to represent the setting in an event ..
Supporting risk & resilience could also be encouraging a foothold onto the next step of the climbing frame, sliding down or climbing down unaided, finishing or completing a jigsaw with & without support, put their transitional toy somewhere away/out of sight from them, take a coat off in an unfamiliar place, go to the toilet unaided ..
Where messy activities can be a challenge use ones that bridge the gap between clean hands and ok dirty hands .. Layer sawdust over gloop and use forks/spoons to discover the bottom ... wrap a safe amount of cling film over a shallow tray of paint for pushing & moving the paint around cleanly .. ask later if they want to break the film or if you can ... have a piece of paper close by to take prints from any painty fingers.
Use a pc/laptop/camera confidently where access may be less available outside of the setting.
Food tasting & new experiences - have familiar alongside unfamiliar and where the risk of trying something horrible is involved support resilience by explaining possible similarities in taste, texture, presentation ..
Hth, enjoy Silkysteps xx
