Attention Games by Barbara Sher is a great book for parents, caregivers and therapists. This book provides creative activities that help you gain and maintain a child’s attention from infants to teenagers. Many of the activities are simple and don’t require any extra materials other than yourself. Barbara provides you with a fun way to interact with your child at different stages of life while explaining “What’s Being Learned”. She also gives alternative example and ideas. This book is a must have for any parent and I will use this as a fellow therapist in my practice as well. Hats off to Barbara for providing us with a sensational resource!
