Publisher's Synopsis
Practical and creative activities, ideas and techniques to help younger children to enhance and build healthy relationships with families and peers. Children who have experienced developmental and relational trauma will often experience social, emotional and behavioural difficulties including emotional dysregulation, social isolation, antisocial behaviours and thus poor interpersonal relationships and low school achievement. Drawing on the latest developments in attachment theory and neuroscience, the author explores how Neuro-Dramatic-Play and Embodiment-Projection-Role can use multisensory, rhythmic and dramatic play to enable children to build relationships and regulate their emotions. Includes creative activities and worksheets, attachment theory and the neuroscience of emotions.
