Is it okay for kids to watch the news and hear about the negative stuff going on out there? 

In times of tragedy, like bombings, shootings, terrorism, murders or accidents, it is challenging to stay positive. We can be easily be inundated by intense fear, deep sadness and confusion. It can easily end up taking a negative spiral that effects everyone. Adults, children, families and communities all over the world may be left with an overwhelming feeling of helplessness and hopelessness. I take comfort each and every time in these difficult situations when I think of the words of the graceful and humble Mr. Rogers…..I always look for the ‘helpers’.
​
It’s important to discuss these negative situations with children in age-appropriate ways so that they can build the skills at an early age on how to learn to cope with stressful and difficult situations. Focus on what kids can do or can't do, what's okay and not okay. Most children are naturally good at ‘helping’ others and using Mr. Rogers’ example is one that kids can really resonate with.

You know it's about to happen and the temptation to run for the hills or hide under the bed is very high however, this is the #1 way to connect with your kids and turn the tantrum spiral into one of the greatest learning opportunities out there! You will need to be equipped with the understanding of the tantrum process and the techniques to navigate through correctly. Here are 3 tips to remember:

REMAIN NEUTRAL
Reacting emotionally will make things worse, remain the 'leader' in the situation and let your kids know that their reactions and behaviour do not effect you.

BE CONFIDENT 
Tantrums are challenging however they are a natural part of development. It's okay to happen, avoid trying to 'stop' them but rather manage them.

TIMING 
Allow the tantrum to run it's course, it will look different for every child and every situation. Expression of emotion is okay but hitting/lashing out is not okay. Correct the negative behaviour inside the tantrum when things have cooled down....it's okay to wait for this part to take place when connection has re-established.

Seems like every kid knows exactly what to ASK FOR this holiday already! I'm trying something different and encouraging Parents to help create a 'Christmas List' of GIVING this holiday season with their children. Sit down one evening and start a discussion with the kids about ways that everyone can GIVE BACK this year. Now this doesn't have to be extreme, especially if it's the first time but there are some simple things we can all do with in our own families and communities that may be small but have a HUGE IMPACT!

IDEAS FOR GIVING BACK TO OTHERS
-reading someone a book,
-sharing a toy,
-donating clothes or food,
-helping a neighbor
-drying the dishes
-saying 'thank you'
-holding hands
-sharing a smile or hug!

Taking time for YOU can seem more like a chore than a luxury as the crazy-filled schedules don't seem to allow for wiggle room. However, it is well known that investing on YOU helps everyone around you. Try to schedule time for yourself in the week. Start with as much time as you can and then build up.

​Here are some quick ways to develop the relationship you have with yourself in a quick little increments through out the day to start....

1.) DEEP BREATHS - sounds easy but can be easily forgotten. Even 3-5 breaths can help soothe yourself
2.) SHOW AFFECTION - give yourself a hug, pat on the back or thumbs up through out the day
3.) REQUEST TIME - ask your family members for just a few minutes when deciding something. It's not a yes. It's not a no. Just ask for a few minutes to think about it.
4.) SELF TALK - looking into the mirror and saying to yourself how great you are for just being you is very difficult, scary and uncomfortable for many people. However, this is the #1 way to build your own self esteem and self worth.
