Are your children anxious about the Coronavirus?

Could you use help in lightening the atmosphere at home during school closures and quarantine?

Play is one of the best ways to relieve a child's emotional distress and to foster connection with our kids

• Could you use ideas for games to play when kids are home on break or from school closures?

• Are most of the interactions you have with your children about getting them to do something, or to stop doing something?

• Do you find it awkward to be silly with your kids, even when you know it might lighten things up?

• Are interactions with your children characterized by tension, stress, and conflict?

• Do you struggle to find activities that your kids will agree to do with you--instead of being on their digital devices?

• Have you forgotten how to play?

"Play is where children show us the inner feelings and experiences that they can't or won't talk about. We need to hear what they have to say, and they need to share it. That's why we have to join children where they live, on their terms. Children don't say, 'I had a hard day at school today; can I talk to you about it?' They say, 'Will you play with me?' If we say yes, they play out what happened in the best way they know how."
-Dr. Lawrence Cohen
