What if my kid wants me to pretend to be like a football star, or I have to like sing into the microphone, or I have to be like a dozen different characters?
And what if they keep telling me that I'm getting it wrong?
And so it's not that much fun for parents to get involved in their kids' play.
But there is so much that's happening developmentally for kids.
At the same time that we don't want to leave parents out of the process.
We want parents to know they can be just as much a part of the process and they can start to see and understand their kids play in a different way.
And we make it really, really easy to do that with, as you mentioned, these seven strategies and pictures to go with it.
So it's all laid out in really easy step-by-step for parents to follow, but it's also not a cookie cut.
Cutter approach.
It's not like, okay, if you're playing Legos with your kid, first you have to do this, and second you have to do this, third, you have to do this.
You know, don't make this mistake.
It's not rigid.
It's let's go with the flow of what your kid is playing and then here's some easy ways to engage with them, maybe in ways that you didn't even know were
interesting to your kid or lighting up certain parts of the brain or teaching them skills that might even end up helping you as a parent.
It might make an afternoon go more smoothly after school, might help you reconnect after they've had a really stressful day.
It might gain their cooperation to be able to move into things that they don't really want to do after you put in a couple of minutes of play.
Like it doesn't just have an impact on how you play with your kid, but how you are in relationship with your kid.
So all those things we bring to you in the pages of the book.
Yeah, I think that our kids are no matter what kid you're raising, they're all really
wired in a way that makes them want to get more mirroring.
