WHY IT WORKS ⤵️ Transitions are some of the hardest time for toddlers. Where they have the most resistance and are prone to tantrums. And if you have multiple little kids, you know it can be like trying to herd cats. 3 REASONS THIS WORKS 👉🏼 ✨ Melodic intonation: aka singing ☑️ The rhythm and sound helps little kids process instructions more easily aka leading to more listening. Plus it’s fun for them! Connection = cooperation. ✨ Calm energy from me ☑️ When you are rushed & frantic, toddlers pick up on that. When you’re calm & regulated, the also absorb that. My energy makes the biggest difference during transitions. ✨ Physical Connection ☑️ Little kids are self - focused and often need physical guidance to switch tasks. It’s just the way their brain is wired. Close eye contact and a gentle hand helps them refocus on the new task & out of playing! 🤎🤎 This is one of my favorite strategies and I truly make up songs for everything. If you’ve been around, you know the car seat jingle 😂 I share a LOT of simple ways to parent toddlers, & actually enjoy these years, so make sure you follow @cassiemomcoach for more 🫶🏻
