Is your child going through any big changes?
i.e. separation/divorce, death in the family, new sibling, starting daycare/school
These changes can cause big upsets in our littles world and will come out in bursts of unwanted behaviors. How do we best combat this?
Well, if we look at the whole picture amma will give us some preventative measures to assist with the de-escalation of some behaviors.
1. Regression is normal
2. Stick to your normal routines-provides safety & security
3. Read books about similar big changes in their world and sing them songs
4. Speak to them about the changes and acknowledge their feelings
5. Move their bodies- dance parties, get outside
Playfulness is a kid's language, so when trying to connect FIND WAYS TO LAUGH TOGETHER!
