The Patience Game — Wait for It!

A series of fun waiting challenges that build self-regulation and impulse control. Includes waiting for a signal before acting, freeze dance, and resisting temptation. The agent guides the parent through observing the child's ability to delay gratification, follow stop/go rules, and manage impulses in a playful context.

Free to do together whenever you like.

What you'll need

Parent should place a small treat on the table visible to the child. Also clear a small space for freeze dance. Parent will need to be able to play/stop music or clap rhythmically for the freeze portion.

How it works

The 3-step guide, with what to look for at each step, is for signed-in parents.
