Agree on one priority.

Describe the selected target in language the family understands. Check what feels relevant and manageable to them.

Show what it looks like.

Demonstrate the activity and invite questions. Agree on the support or cues that fit the plan, rather than assuming a written instruction is enough.

Choose the return path.

Agree what the family should notice and how to share it. Use your organization’s approved system for any recordings or client information.

Close the loop next session.

Review what the family experienced, acknowledge what worked, and adapt the next assignment together.
