Hey Friends, 

Have you ever wondered how much is too much, especially when it comes to screen time and devices?  

Today, Bill Brady from Troomi helps us understand some of the procedures he uses. It is not that there is "an answer."  But rather he has ideas.   And from those ideas, we can pick what makes sense for us and for our children.  

So set your phone to "Do not disturb" for this helpful episode!  

Always cheering you on, 

Dinalynn

Hey Friends, 

Today we will talk about our words, and how our kids understand and misunderstand, all the while, we expect they got it! English is full of words that have multiple meanings! 

Come along for this conversation of how words change their meaning in different contexts and what your kids may be thinking.  Today, you will get a little homework of NOTICING!  I hope you will have a clear understanding of what you should notice about yourself and your child as you communicate.  

I'm always cheering you on!

76 What Are They Thinking!!? Here’s One Way to Find Out!

Hey Friends,

When we tell our kids to do things, we know what we expect they do. It is natural for us to think they understand the whole picture when they have demonstrated in the past, they can do it.  However, their behavior tells you what your child does not yet FULLY understand.  Their behavior - or lack thereof - is a window into what you still need to TEACH. 

So, today's topic is the difference between TEACHING and TELLING!  And a story of what happens when we TELL and wrongly think that we already taught!  

I'm always cheering you on!

I know that Back to School means that you are now doing morning routines!  How do you get those morning routines to become automatic for your kids?  Today's Episode will give you one really effective strategy!  Of course it means YOU need to do it at the start, but if you do it right, the routines will be done - the way you want them done - and if you set it up well, those routines can move into auto-pilot! 

Grab your pen and paper, and let's make a plan!  

If this example doesn't meet the needs you have in your family, and you are ready for help, contact me to discuss how we can work together!  

Best wishes for a fun and happy back to school season.  I'm always cheering you on!
