CALM AND CONNECTED - EPISODE 180
Exploring different coping strategies helps us expand our child’s toolkit of strategies that work. But sometimes, it’s a challenge to get kids to try new skills. In this summer series, Janine tries to make it easier by walking you through six different strategies which she invites you to try with your child. Practice each one a few times to see if it’s a strategy that your child likes, and if they want to add it into their coping skills toolkit.
In today’s episode Janine introduces us to a distraction technique called ‘Would you Rather?’. This involves asking each other a series of questions like ‘Would you rather live on Mars or live on the Moon?’. These types of fun questions can really help you give your brain a break.
Take a moment to listen along and try a new coping skill.
