Filled with more than 50 games designed to improve family relationships and social interactions, this book will help parents teach their children 12 basic skills--including listening, making appropriate requests, following directions, problem solving, and respecting boundaries--that will reduce sibling rivalries, eliminate whining and tantrums, stop interruptions, and decrease arguing, backtalk, and insults. The games are presented in an easy-to-follow recipe format, using only common household toys and materials.
