Dripping

This exercise can be done either in the water or on land. Dip your hand into the water and gently drip it onto the toddler’s head. Observe the child’s reaction and try to encourage positive feelings through praise and reassurance. If the child reacts negatively, you can try the exercise again later. However, avoid reinforcing negative feelings by expressing pity. You can also try distracting the toddler with a toy or other object while lightly dripping water. If the child responds positively to this exercise, you can proceed with the Watering Can Readiness Test.
