Chapter 6b: Joint Planning Experience It

Home Visitor: Let's think of something we can do next week. Since, today, we sort of looked more at what he's doing with sort of grasping and releasing. Is there something else that you want to work on around the border part? Or we can do something completely different, too. 

Mom: I think, because he is pulling up and wanting to walk, I think it would be good to find something safe for him to work on his lower strength and just helping him pull himself up. So, I think that we should work on that next week.

Home Visitor: Okay, okay, so, we can do that, then. We can sort of see what toys you have. And then, things like this are great, because they're not going to move when he's pulling up. So, you can just practice, practice pulling up, all you want to, yeah.

Mom: Say "Bye-bye! Bye-bye!

Home Visitor: Bye, Mason. Bye, Mason.

Mom: Bye-bye.

Home Visitor: Good job! Look at you!

Mom: That's the first -- I'm sorry. That's the first time I've ever seen him do that.
