from 2019-06-25T07:00
In Episode 15 of the Life Skills 4 Kids Podcast, I will be talking about a concept that I have been trying to incorporate into my family, mummy, and occupational therapist life since I came across it a couple of months ago called parenting with open hands and how it can help with anxiety in kids.
In this episode we cover:
•The meaning of parenting with open hands.
•I share my personal experience on my children struggling and feeling overwhelmed.
•Preparing ourselves, as parents, to help our children through these emotions.
•Things parents can do to support and guide their children.
•Listening and taking notice of children's cues for expressing their emotions.
•Challenging children and help them through it to prepare them for problem-solving.
