Tip of the Month - September 2019
This month: introduce your child to the engine zones (Zones of Regulation). This is a great way to get your child to better understand and identify their energy and emotional levels and teaches them different tools to help better regulate themselves. The best thing to do is to just start incorporating the terminology into your everday language i.e. "Johnny it's time for bed so let's read a book to get into the blue zone", "Susie you look like you're in the yellow zone, lets go on the swing out back for a few minutes to get in the green zone to be able to do homework"
