This workshop provides caregivers with strategies to strengthen connection and engagement with their child through positive interactions. Participants will explore the concept of pairing, which involves building trust by associating caregivers with enjoyable activities and experiences. Families will learn how to follow their child’s lead in play, identify preferred activities, and create fun, motivating interactions that encourage participation and cooperation. Through discussion and guided examples, caregivers will explore ways to increase shared attention, reduce power struggles, and build positive routines. This workshop focuses on creating meaningful, enjoyable moments that strengthen relationships and make learning easier. By the end of the program, families will have practical strategies for increasing engagement, encouraging interaction, and building a positive foundation for communication and skill development.
