Your Beautiful Child with Shane B. Kulman MS SpEd

A child at play is a child at work.  An awareness of the rules in a social interaction is necessary for acceptance in any social situation.  While it may look like mere child's play, there's a lot of work; problem solving, skill building, overcoming physical and mental challenges, going on behind the scenes.   As toddlers, children play side by side without obvious communication. During the preschool years, they start to interact with each other by creating interesting stories with each other. As they do this, they learn to negotiate, cooperate, and share.  When children disagree about who gets to be the Mommy or who will wear the fireperson hat, they're actually developing important social skills needed to guide them into a successful adult.
