Description
In this episode, we talk about attachment play, which is a term coined by Aletha Solter, Ph.D. to describe the 9 types of play that can be used to help children cooperate, feel connected, heal from painful past experiences, release fear and powerlessness, and express feelings that otherwise lead to hitting, not sleeping and repressing feelings.
We explain how attachment play works, why it’s the opposite of behaviourism, how we can use it to help children cooperate, and we give examples of how it can be used in really specific ways.
Most of all, it brings more connection, joy and fun into family life!
