This episode is another example of a 20-minute Floortime session. In the video link below, you will see a child enjoying water balloon play with his Dad. Using examples from the book by Dr. Davis and colleagues, Dad’s goal is to work through the core capacities up to and including FEDC 4 where he can get sustained interactions and shared problem-solving with his son.

You may have noticed that not only were there comments in the video example, but also yellow asterisks * at various parts in the video. In the next few episodes, we will review the blog post Self-Reflection in Floortime. It will review this video for what went well and why, what Dad can do to facilitate more robust interactions in future Floortime sessions, and other thoughts and noted reflections. Do stay tuned!

Next time, we’ll wrap up our Stumbling blocks… video blog series with functional emotional developmental capacity (FEDC) 6: Logical Thinking and Building Bridges between Ideas.
Until next time, here’s to choosing play and experiencing joy every day!
