No one can really say they’ve mastered the art of parenting. We learn different things about raising our children every day. Understanding your child’s emotions behind their behaviour can be quite tricky. Children don’t always have the language skills like adults to communicate how they are feeling and therefore tend to act out their emotions instead. As a result, it’s easy for us as parents to misinterpret or completely miss our children’s verbal and nonverbal cues.
On this week’s edition of #TheSitDownParenting, we explore play therapy with Educational Psychologist, Yasmin Omar as she provides insight on why this expressive technique is a valuable tool in helping us as parents to respond to our children’s emotions and behaviour in a way that will build their character.
