How You Play with Young Children Shapes How They Interact with Others

A recent study at the University of Illinois found that the way mothers and toddlers interacted during play predicted how the children later interacted with other children. Researchers observed interactions between more than 120 mothers and their toddler-aged children to see how they interacted while playing. The same researchers followed the children through their preschool days and were able to connect the children’s responsiveness and assertiveness to interactions that had been observed.
