282 Why Are Transitions So Hard for Young Kids? And How To Create A Visual Schedule That Works!

Hey Friends~  Why does your child fall apart over transitions they know how to do - or do every day? Getting out the door, leaving the playground, turning off the tablet, or getting ready for bed can be a battle.   In this episode, you’ll discover why transitions can be so difficult, seven reasons your checklist or visual schedule may not be helping yet, and simple shifts that can make routines easier to understand and follow. Because a visual schedule isn’t just about showing your child what to do. It helps their brain understand what’s happening now and what’s coming next. And knowing what’s coming next can make transitions feel much safer. Always cheering you on!  Dinalynn CONTACT the Host, Dinalynn:  [email protected] Have a QUESTION or COMMENT?
