Play supports moving out of the stress response portion of the brain. One of the hardest things as parents - is not pickup up the other end of the rope for the “tug of war” power struggle. Using play can deescalate the situation quickly, supporting not only our child’s response, but ours as well.

Get curious about a play perspective when needing a specific behavior from a child, and keep staying curious as you see how they respond. Hint: frog jumps, crab walks, or hopping like a bunny can help littles get from point A to point B quicker sometimes 😉🐥🦖
