Help Kids Prepare for the Holidays
Talking points to create a collaborative game plan
Parties, events, and traditions around the holidays often alter our daily routines. This can be especially disruptive to kids who struggle with mental flexibility. With anticipated disruptions in mind, try our holiday preparedness conversation starters to promote social skills, confidence, problem-solving, and emotional regulation by helping kids feel heard, understood, and excited about the possibilities that lie ahead.
Preparedness in kids (and adults!) contributes to overall well-being and can significantly reduce dysregulated feelings and behaviors.
