“High five” is a great example of how we shape a new gesture. People naturally make the offer and then wait. Always give your child a chance to make a response on their own. If they don’t respond, then give them a little help to show them what to do.

Today’s activity: Use “high five” as a greeting and to celebrate when something fun or good happens. You can throw balls into a hoop or basket and celebrate when it goes in. Encourage others to use the gesture as a greeting with your child.
