Play Time

Practice making new friends by asking to join in and inviting others to play.

Say: We are going to play New Friends. Select a toy or small household item to play with. I’m going to play with this toy. You’re going to watch and then ask in a friendly voice to join in.

Have your child say, “Can I play with you?” Choose one of the Fair Ways to Play, and play with the toy. Switch and have your child play with the toy while you watch. Now you’re going to invite me to play.

Have your child say, “Would you like to play with me?” Then have your child choose one of the Fair Ways to Play, and play with the toy.
