How to Use I Love You Rituals in the Media Center

Dr. Bailey designed I Love You Rituals as a playful means to promote optimal brain development, increase attention span, reduce hyperactivity, build self-esteem, amplify cooperation and facilitate language development. An I Love You Rituals Poster Set posted on the Media Center wall provides adults and children with a playful reminder to connect.

Essentially, I Love You Rituals are structured connecting activities that include eye contact, touch, presence and playfulness. Your Media Center will benefit from using I Love You Rituals during transitions and with children who call for help through difficult behaviors like aggression, tantrums or withdrawal. TheI Love You Rituals Poster Set and I Love You Rituals on a String help in implementing a regular I Love You Rituals program. The I Love You Rituals book provides 75+ rituals for you to choose from. Music that supports these rituals includes Songs for I Love You Rituals Volume 1 and Volume 2, and “Rhyme the Rhyme” on Kindness Counts.
