A child's brain matures when connections are made between the cells as the result of interactions. Each interaction forms a groove - a pathway .

If kids are never given tools to help them self-regulate – if they are only "told" to stop crying, stop yelling, stop begging, stop complaining, stop hitting, stop sulking - but aren't exposed to regular examples of positive coping skills or any adults with whom they can co-regulate or who can model the process of emotional regulation, then the pathways to impulse control won't develop automatically.

They will form maladaptive strategies to meet their needs and express their emotions. Kids don’t just grow out of temper tantrums – in order for them to find new ways to express and process their feelings - you must provide the map, the tools, and the space.

You can see why your ability to remain calm and in control of your emotional responses is so key. What do you do to model compassion and self-regulation for your child?

Yoga is back tomorrow! First class of 2022 and that means it is time to set our intentions for the year on our annual vision boards. We will dedicate half of our class time the next 3 Saturdays in January working on our boards. All materials will be provided.

WHAT IS A VISION BOARD?
A vision board is a powerful tool used to attract the things your child most desires into their life; it serves as a visual representation of your child's attainable goals, aspirations and dreams. Your child will create their very own vision board to take home and display as a daily reminder on what they are working towards.

How to talk to your children about shootings and senseless violence:

Here is a summary:

-For younger kids, wait until about age 8 to get into any detail, unless the incident directly affects your family.

-Tell a clear one-sentence story so that young children can understand at an age appropriate level. For example: “A bad man hurt people with a gun” can explain what happened at the level a young child will understand.

-Reassure your child that they are safe. Let them know that you and other adults are doing everything they can to keep them safe.

-Limit media exposure of children 8 and under, especially visual images. These images can be scary and confusing because a child might think the incident is happening again or repeatedly.

-Find the helpers. Point out the first responders and civilians who helped in the emergency.

-Start the discussion with school aged kids. Ask how they are feeling, what questions they have, wjat you can do to help and clear up any misconceptions.

-Older children and teenagers may want to brainstorm solutions or ways to help.
