Wednesday, January 19: “Use your words”-What your child’s behavior is telling you.
“Use your words” has become a part of everyday conversation for parents of young children when it comes to helping children learn to communicate. As your child begins to master language, they may resort to other ways of telling you their wants, needs and feelings. This workshop will go over the ABC’s of behavior so that you can “read” what your child is trying to tell you and help give them the words they need to express themselves. This workshop will help you to reduce your child’s frustration and decrease tantrums.
