Our Playtime is a five-minute video developed by the Sutherland Child and Family Interagency to demonstrate a particular structured play routine that requires parents to follow their child’s lead in play. This technique has proven to improve parent and child relationships, self- esteem and behaviour. It doesn’t cost money, it doesn’t require special skills and it only takes five minutes a day.
