Play guide
- 1Wait until everyone is calm again, not in the heat of the moment, before starting.
- 2Sit with your child and ask them to tell you what happened in their own words, without you correcting the story.
- 3Gently ask how they think the other person felt, and offer a feeling word if they are stuck.
- 4Ask what is one small thing that might help make it better, and let the idea be theirs.
- 5Support them in doing that one thing if they choose to, and close the conversation warmly whatever they decide.
