Become a Floortimer with The Floortime Manual

The Floortime Manual Online is interactive and online 24/7. Short video segments of Floortime sessions identify the main steps. You can check your understanding through Practice evaluations of the video sessions. Audio clips by Dr. Greenspan further explain the techniques and offer insights for doing Floortime with children who are avoidant, aimless, revved up, rigid, aggressive, passive, self-stimulatory, repetitive, or inattentive. Clear directions help you organize a Floortime session. It takes about 2 hours to go through one type of play. You also can go through the two other types of play, find out what to do for difficult behaviors, and check out the resources. Your knowledge will let you decide how best to provide what a child needs.

The Floortime Manual Print shows you that Greenspan Floortime is not one-size fits all. A child's developmental profile shapes the sessions. Each one is as unique as the child. So you need to know if a child is sensitive, sensory seeking, or under-reactive/passive. You need to know what type of play the child engages with--sensory, object, symbolic or some of each. The Floortime Manual Print explains what all this means for your child.
