Want to avoid holiday meltdowns? What if I told you that managing these outbursts can be as easy as remembering the acronym "HALT?" As a counselor and parent myself, I've been there. I've navigated the tantrums and the tears, and I'm here to share my insights with you. Tune in as we reframe these intense emotional moments not as acts of defiance, but as kids expressing their emotions in the only way they know how. Also, we'll discuss how to use "HALT" to check in on their emotional well-being and maintain harmony in the hustle and bustle of the festivities.
In addition to managing meltdowns, we'll be diving into how essential it is to recognize and address your child's basic needs. Every child is unique, and understanding their temperament can make all the difference in how we cater to their needs. But that's not all; we introduce a fantastic tool for your family, "Best Me I Can Be," a journal that helps kids understand their strengths and how to handle different situations. Imagine the peace and joy you'll feel seeing your child empowered and self-aware! So parents, tune in, share the love, and remember, you've got this!
