Here are 4 simple ways to strengthen that bond:

1. Be present — even 10 minutes of your full attention each day shows them they matter.

2. Join their interests — play, draw, or explore what they love together.

4. Talk about feelings — listen first, validate their emotions, and help them feel understood.

Small, consistent moments of connection add up to lifelong trust.
