How to Stay Calm in the Chaos
Update: 2021-02-23
Description
When school is virtual, many families are struggling to provide the type of support their children received in school while also managing a work/life balance.
It's enough to make child and parent want to pull their hair out.
In this PreK Teach and Play podcast episode, autism expert Barb Avila and I explore how we can help children stay regulated and engaged during this pandemic.
During our conversation, we examine...
- How to "calm a storm" by getting children safe, being visually non-threatening, observing children's body language, and making a bid for connection
- Factors that cause the body to become dysregulated
- Why it's important to shift the mindset from behavior compliance to co-regulation
- How boundaries make children feel more secure
