Play Interaction

Children learn best when they are having fun!  Encouraging your child to take part in a range of different play activities will help them learn skills in social interaction, understanding of language, listening and problem solving.  Children can then use these skills to help them understand and interact with the world around them. 

Play Interaction helps to teach positive social skills including:

• Sharing a space (accepting and tolerating contact with others
• Turn taking
• Being able to wait
• Co-operating
• Anticipating actions
• Giving eye contact
• Listening
• Attending to task
• Following and understanding rules for games.
• Developing language skills.
