When Should I Practice Coping Skills with Kids?


Listen Later

Have you ever wondered when is a good time to practice coping skills with your child? This is a really good question to consider and how this may look in your week. The first step is for the adult and child to be emotionally ready and calm and from this point, new skills can be learned.  


In this episode Janine speaks about:

The window of tolerance 

The rainbow illustration explained by Lindsay Braman

When learning can’t happen and the emotions to look for

Being a thermostat rather than the thermometer 

Looking for calm moments and transition points in the day

It’s okay to do learning seasonally and not regularly

Building a coping skills toolkit with the Coping Skills Hub

And remember, do not forget about yourself, take a few minutes for you and have a little fun!
