“How to manage my child’s frustration during tasks?”
Show Notes

I love discussing frustration because it is a normal human emotion just like sadness, fear, joy, or happiness. As parents, our role is to teach children what these feelings mean and help them cope. Enter frustration tolerance. Tune in as I discuss managing our child’s frustration when they can’t figure out a task like a new toy and how we can use those opportunities for learning. We discuss: 

  • What frustration tolerance is 
  • Why moments of frustration can be huge for a child’s cognitive development
  • Important steps to managing the moments of frustration
