From Chaos to Calm - Helping Kids Regulate (Part 5)

Lauren is back with 5 more regulation strategies that you can try with the kiddos in your life! For the rest of May and all of June, Lauren is going to share 5 regulation strategies per week. In each episode, Lauren will explain how each strategy works to regulate and then give you specific examples of how you can start using these strategies with young kids (but these can be used with people of any age too!). In this episode, Lauren goes through a quick review of the regulation techniques shared in the first 4 parts of this series. She also shares even more regulation tools. Some of these tools are preventative and other are reactive; with a lot of tools in your toolbox, you always have what you need to help kids avoid or deal with difficult feelings. CleaningSorting or organizingStorytelling or story writingImaginary playHumming or singingScreamingLauren answers this week’s listener question during the episode: These are all helpful, but how can I remember to do these things in the moment?Try-at-home tip:  Take a walk.Update: There will be no podcast episodes in July.
