Connection Tips: Parents, here are 4 Playful Ways to Think Through Emotions at Bedtime: 1) What are all the ways you can show "happy" in your face and body? 2) What are all the ways you can show "frustrated" in your face and body? 3) Relax your face and body when you and your child let go of the emotion, 4) Get close and breathe with your little one so they can experience what deep breathing feels and sounds like when following the breathing cues.
