Description

The words Structure and Routine can sometimes strike fear into the hearts of parents who reject being tied down to a strict schedule where every minute of the day is planned. But that’s not what Structure and Routine is all about. Instead, it is a plan that reduces the amount of correction needed and gives: order to the day, predictability, and best of all FREEDOM! Rich and Julie share the benefits of structure and routine and practical suggestions to implement in your child’s day. Then Gary and Anne Marie Ezzo join Rich and Julie to discuss the neuroscience behind structure and routine and the hidden influence it exerts.
