EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW
INSIDE THE PROGRAM
MODULE 1
WHAT DOES PLAY MEAN FOR YOUR INDIVIDUAL CHILD? HOW TO BETTER UNDERSTAND YOUR CHILD IN ORDER TO SET HER UP FOR SUCCESS.
In module one we are going to break down what play is, how it might look for YOUR child, and why that’s so important. You might think your child cannot play productively, but is it possible that you might not be understanding exactly what productive play looks like for him? In this first module I am going to teach you how to understand your INDIVIDUAL child’s play and interests better, so that you can set a stage for independent play that will be irresistible to them. You will walk away from module one with the skills you need to gather data and learn all about your specific child's play-needs.
MODULE 2
THE RULES/ LOGISTICS/ LANGUAGE
During module two, we will dive into the specifics of exactly how to get quiet time started on the right foot for your family. It’s more than just spending a little time together and sending them off to play solo. It’s all about the language you use and how you tailor this to your specific family’s needs. (Hint: this makes ALL the difference.) We will work through language prompts appropriate for your specific child, how to manage and get ready if you have multiple children.
MODULE 3
WHERE AND HOW LONG/ HOW TO MAKE QUIET TIME WORK IN YOUR FAMILY.
Module three is all about the where and how. (PSST: You absolutely DO NOT need a playroom to make this happen.) We will go over different types of home environments and figure out exactly where the best place is for quiet time in your environment.
How long to expect quiet time will be and how to know when it is over. Week three is about setting expectations and limits for making this work for everyone. What to do when your child keeps coming to you during quiet time. What to do if you live in a tiny apartment? What to do if your kids want to play together? We are going to go over exactly how to teach your child how to play independently, what children will do during quiet time and why.
MODULE 4
TROUBLE SHOOTING AND HACKS TO MAKE QUIET TIME HAPPEN ANYWHERE
By module four you will be well on your way and ready for some trouble shooting! I am going to tell you exactly what to do when-
What if you nailed it and then life was erratic and you need to get back on track
