  • #142: Top 12 Books to Help Your Toddler or Teen Cope with Worry and Anxiety

    #142: Top 12 Books to Help Your Toddler or Teen Cope with Worry and Anxiety
    May 28 2024

    Did you know that about 11.6% of kids had anxiety in 2012, up 20% from 2007? But during the pandemic, those numbers nearly doubled, such that 20.5% of youth worldwide now struggle with anxiety symptoms, as reported by the American Psychological Association. So if your child is in that number, they are not alone. I often get asked what causes my child’s anxiety? It could be a number of factors such as any unexpected change or instability, loss, serious illness, death of a loved one, violence, or abuse. Of course these are just a few situations that can lead some kids to become anxious. Sometimes it could simply be learned behavior. Growing up in a family where others are fearful or anxious also can "teach" a child to be afraid too. But interventions can help them overcome, especially in the form of stories. That’s why , I share my top 12 children’s books that help children manage worry and anxiety. (This is not an exhaustive list but a great resource to get you started.) So, tune in until the end to hear more about what these books have to offer.

    #141: What is Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Therapy?
    May 21 2024

    In this episode, we talk about what applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy is and if it’s right for your or a child you know. With all the therapy options out there for children who struggle with behavior regulation, ABA is one of the most commonly used ones and it has proven results. One great resource to use is AutismSpeaks.org to learn more about Autism Spectrum Disorders and treatment. If you suspect your child or a child you know is on the Autism spectrum, this is a great resource. Listen closely as I breakdown what you need to know and how you can access this type of therapy for your child or the child in your life.

  • #140: Don't Slip Down the Learning Loss Slide This Summer!

    #140: Don't Slip Down the Learning Loss Slide This Summer!
    May 14 2024

    In this episode, we talk about the summer slip n slide. No, not the fun swim-like activity that gives you a high water bill, but the one that will have your child forgetting so much of what was learned throughout the year. You may have heard it under other names like learning regression, learning loss, or the summer slide. Basically, it refers to the phenomenon where students, particularly school-aged children, experience a loss of academic skills and knowledge over the summer break when they are not actively engaged in learning. But guess what! You can help your child maintain their skills or better yet, get ahead of their peers. I cover what you can do to mitigate learning loss with fun activities and easy strategies.
