The videos and illustrated parent guides contain clear language and are suitable for caregivers from many cultures. The professional guides provide theoretical information on which each title in the series is based as well as practical strategies an tips for administering the videos to parents.

The Simple Gift videos have been widely used by parenting groups, home visitors and others to present well-researched information on attachment and emotion regulation to parents in practical easy to understand format. Each video presents clear examples of different caregiver responses that could be either helpful or potentially harmful, and encourages positive ways to interact with young children to foster healthy relationships and emotional development.
