Talk and Rock

This is a good after school activity between parent and child.  Both of you are sitting on the floor, facing each other, with your legs like a "v".  You're holding hands.  gently, rock back and forth, front to back while the parent asks questions about the child's day.  Maintain a slow rythmn and quiet, calm tone and see what happens.  This is also a nurturing and structuring activity as well.
