What it is
Families hear a lot during a home visit or a session, and most of it is gone by dinner. These 16 one-page tip sheets give them something calm and plain to keep on the fridge. Each one has a "My notes for you" box where you write one thing you saw going well and one small thing to try this week, in your own handwriting.

Printing tips
Print in color or use the low-ink file. Regular paper is fine; cardstock lasts longer on a fridge. This is a digital file, so nothing will be shipped.
Terms of use
For personal, classroom, and counseling-room use. Please don't share or resell the file.
