What are we learning?
The activity is intended to help us observe whether a child can apply a simple pause-and-breathe practice at a naturally occurring moment, and what parents notice during the experience.
What to notice
- Was your child able to try it?
- How much prompting was needed?
- What did you notice about your child's response?
- What did you notice about your own response?
- What felt easy, difficult, unusual, or unexpected?
