Parenting Moment: Reflecting with Elmo and Louie | Parenting
Watch this video on your own or with your child. In it, Elmo’s dad Louie, demonstrates the strategy of reflecting. Reflecting is “saying what they say”—echoing and expanding on what your child is saying. This lets them know you hear them and you “get them”! And it all starts with following children’s lead.
