The author opens a door for parents and explains what’s really going on with your child, beneath the surface. —Daniel S. Samadi, M.D. Otolaryngologist with extensive expertise in treating ear, nose, throat disorders in children of all ages.

“What’s really going on when your child is shut-down, angry, overly sensitive, or unable to sit still? In the Parent-Child Dance, occupational therapist Miriam Manela gives you the keys you need to understand your child’s behavior—and gives you the tools you need to help him thrive. The simple and fun activities in this book will help a child who is “dysregulated” and has sensory-system challenges, but almost any child will benefit from the wisdom between these pages. Best of all, you can use this guide in conjunction with other therapies and treatments. —Rabbi Sam Frankel, LCSW

Running to professionals is both a costly and time consuming luxury that I can't really afford. But in this book the author is sharing many OT "secrets"…—Toby T., Mom

In this highly readable and practical book Manela and Zwolinski share hands-on approaches and easy to understand explanations of some of the underlying causes of dysregulated child behavior. The easily understandable recommendations coupled with the wonderful illustrations that clearly describe how to implement the exercises combine to make this a volume that parents will find to be a tool that can help them meet the challenge of raising a child with behavioral difficulties.
—Dr. David Pelcovitz, Straus Professor of Psychology and Education at the Azrieli Graduate School in Yeshiva University

As a parent and occupational therapist, I was impressed by Miriam Manela’s unique approach to looking at the “total child”. She has a gift for presenting powerful techniques in a practical and easy to implement manner. I highly recommend this book for parents, therapists, and educators. —Chaya Hyman, MS

The Parent-Child Dance offers many creative activities parents can do with their children at home to help them with some common behavioral issues. An additional benefit of these activities is the strengthening of the parent-child relationship.
—Howard Glasser, Executive Director of Children’s Success Foundation & Creator of the Nurtured Heart Approach®

The Parent-Child Dance gives a variety of ways to unlock a child's potential…It is this flexibility which helps parents custom-tailor the approach that works for their child…It's a book to be read, reread and put into practice.—Rachel C. Sarna, PhD, MSW, Child, Adolescent, Adult and Family Clinical Psychotherapy

The best thing is that the treatments are really like games, so by "playing" with a child you can help them gain better control of their behaviors—Anne Wallman

This must-have book is full of activities that can be easily integrated into play and everyday routines.
—Dr. Georgia DeGangi Clinical Psychologist, Occupational Therapist, Pediatric Regulatory Disorders Expert and Author

Here is a book for families with children who have sensory and behavioral challenges as well as for any family with children whose parents want them to thrive.
