Description

Struggle with your child's constant complaints of boredom or felt the pressure to constantly entertain them? Feeling guilty about screen time and want to strike a better balance?In today's episode, I discuss how to approach boredom with intention and provide suggestions to help your children learn to manage this feeling on their own.I also tackle the challenge of helping children navigate boredom in our fast-paced, on-demand world and share insights on reframing boredom as independent play, creative thinking, or other forms of self-guided exploration. By doing so, you can take a step back and give your child the space they need to handle their own feelings of frustration, without constantly intervening. ___Submit your comments and questions about Tara's Takes HERETo learn more about how you can work with me submit a contact form HERE or email me at info@taragratto.ca------This podcast is created for educational purposes only.
