Free-Spirit Rover

A Free-Spirit Rover is often socially easy, quick to explore, and happiest when allowed to test an idea in their own way. Their enthusiasm can move faster than instructions.

What you may notice

• Greets and then moves on to investigate
• Experiments with toys without waiting for help
• Switches activities when a new option appears

Play and enrichment

Use safe exploration courses, food-toy stations, and games with more than one valid solution.

Settling

Reduce options gradually near the end of play and leave one calm activity available instead of stopping everything at once.

Working together

Keep cues brief, reward voluntary returns, and avoid interrupting every independent attempt.
