Counselor’s Corner
Want happier and calmer children? It’s simple! Simplify their world.
Too much of anything can be stressful and overwhelming no matter your age. For younger children, stress often presents as irritability, disruptive behavior, and even health issues. Here are three ways to help your child have a simpler life.
1. Reduce Clutter
Keep only the toys and activities that your child consistently enjoys for long periods of time. You may be surprised at how creative your child can get with just a few simple toys.
Loosen Up The Schedule
Take one or two things off the calendar and allow for more creative play and exploration.
3. Quality Time, Quality Memories
While a well-planned and expensive family vacation is fun, the things that will most likely stand out to your child as memorable will be the simple family dinners, the bedtime stories, and the picnics in the park.
