The Language of Play - Kids that Listen, Speech Therapy, Language Development, Early Intervention

Hey Friends, Today, we are talking about the dreaded Tantrums and Meltdowns. Did you know they are NOT the same thing? When you identify what is actually going on for your kiddo, you respond differently. No matter your child’s age, when we really understand what is happening, we can be more helpful. Join today to learn the difference between tantrums and meltdowns, how to know, and ways you can more effectively help your child communicate. Of course, there is always more conversation on topics like these. And, if your child is struggling to communicate, you likely have extra outbursts. If you are struggling with tantrums or meltdowns and you want to discuss ways to improve those behaviors in your home, email me and we will schedule a conversation.

Hello Parents! We all have words we tell ourselves about ourselves. Those words in our minds are sometimes kind, but often those words and messages are unkind! Instead of helping us meet our goals, those voices sabotage us. Our kids are the same way. The persistent message that derails what you really want is your "Saboteur." We ALL have them and the patterns were established early in life. There are 9 main voices. By learning what your saboteurs are, you will be able to help yourself and your children have better self-talk. This leads to better behavior, better communication, and better connection. I'm glad you are here! Dinalynn Curious about Parent Coaching? Email me: [email protected] ABOUT THE GUEST: Denise Belisle is the founder of Denise Belisle In-Motion Coaching.

Saboteurs are the voices in your head that generate negative emotions in the way you handle life’s everyday challenges. They represent automated patterns in your mind for how to think, feel, and respond. They cause your stress, anxiety, self-doubt, frustration, restlessness, and unhappiness. They sabotage your performance, well-being, and relationships. Sign up to test which are your TOP saboteurs. Contact: [email protected]

Hello Parents! If you have ever wanted to find a flexible schedule to work your job from home? If so, have you stopped because you don't know how to do it with elementary-age children at home? Listen in to hear what worked for Wendy Cocke. Wendy Cocke, Author of the #1 bestselling book, “Making Flex Work: Defining Success on Your Own Terms” is the founder of Engineering Leadership solutions and a working mother of two. Prior to starting her business, Wendy spent over 20 years as an engineer in Fortune 500 companies leading global teams. When her oldest child, who is now in middle school, was just an infant, Wendy struggled to find balance. She felt like she was failing at home and at work, so she took matters into her own hands. After 11 months, she was able to convince her company to let her go part time, something that had never been done at the leadership level before. Wendy was told that her career would “stall,” that she was “walking away from everything she had built,” and that “she would never get promoted again,” but she didn’t believe them! She knew there had to be a way to find the balance she and her family desperately needed. Today, through lived experience and intentional language, Wendy’s children understand that work is something people do to provide for the lifestyle they enjoy, and they work together as a family to seamlessly transition between work and play. I know you will LOVE this episode! Enjoy and be INSPIRED!

Hey Parents~ Have you ever wondered how language is learned? Have you wondered how we actually teach language and how the brain works? In today’s episode we are going to talk about language learning through the lens of a book and a One-year-old. It’s still pertinent to you if you are older, because the language learning process happens basically the same. Just at a more complex level. Sit back and relax. Imagine with me as you enjoy today’s learning. With gratitude and hope, Dinalynn Contact Dinalynn, the Host: [email protected] Resources from The Language Of Play: Join the FREE Interactive Webinar!
