and brain and why are we drawn to them even though they pose large amounts of
danger?

Thesis Statement: 

Developing a passion for action sports and being introduced especially at a
young age can increase confidence, positive interactions with the people and world
around you, and general quality of life by giving purpose through a widely shared
common interest and global community that aims to support and inspire others.

Action Project Description: 

​For my action project I took a group of preschoolers aged 4-5 with different personalities and experience riding bikes. I set up an obstacle course for them where they are mainly on bikes with other obstacles for them to navigate. I let them all do the course and navigate it as they go. At the end of all of them going I asked them questions about the course as well as questions about their fears and how they deal with them.
