What the? Is daily playtime also a form of behavioral therapy?
The answer is yes!
Through playtime, parents and children will have a lot of interaction, and parent-child relationships will increase.
The child's sense of security increases, which is a good stimulus to the child's brain pathways.
At the same time, parents will be more likely to notice their children's good or bad behavior during playtime.
We can use positive reinforcement to encourage good behavior in children.
Child's playtime
We need to pay attention to the following
1. Take 20 minutes a day to spend this time alone with your child. The first week can be carried out every day, followed by 3-4 times a week of parent-child play time.
2, this special game, other children can not participate.
3, when the time comes, just say to the child "The time for us to play together is up, what do you want to play?" "Don't suggest, let the child decide for himself." But it can't be watching TV or playing video games together.
4, relax, first observe the child for a few minutes, see clearly what he is doing, focus on playing with him, rather than coping while looking at the phone.
This has a very bad effect on Awa's concentration.
5, if you have a good time with your child, you will find that your child likes your company very much, and he will even ask you to stay and play for a while.
At this time, you can appropriately extend the time under the premise of setting a good time.
6. Discover his good behavior and give him very positive praise. (For details, refer to > Behavioral Therapy - Positive Reinforcement Methods)
7) If your child starts to mess around, just turn your back on your face and look elsewhere for a while.
If he continues to behave badly, tell the child that the special play time is over and then leave the room.
Tell your child that when he can perform well, you will play with him.
It's not easy to stick to the daily playtime, remember to do this assignment. This is a very important lesson for the American Community PTBM (Parents Training Behavior Management) project.
It is also an important part of the 504plan and IEP programs in the school's personalized education support.
His parents only commented on his activities but did not teach him or direct him, and did not ask unnecessary questions.
You'll find it relatively easy to give compliments and positive feedback on what your child does well and the good interactions you have.
