So, get ready to dive into the wonderful world of meaningful connections and discover the magic that happens when you truly connect with your kiddos!
How can I connect better with my child?
I feel you. Figuring out how to connect with our kids can be tough! Sometimes they may want to share…or not. Or we may try and try (and try again), yet they don’t seem to want to listen to anything we have to say. And trying to get an idea of what they’re thinking about? It can be like pulling teeth! (Especially at the end of the day when we’re all tired.)
I have some ideas to help you start connecting better with your kids
In the video, I share some of the best kid-tested tips I’ve learned including:
- The specific (though easy!) question to ask your kid, starting today.
- How asking the same question each day can help you start to find out what they’re thinking about.
- Why being silly = credibility with kids.
- How sharing your own day (and being a model) can help build trust and connection.
Now I’d love to hear from you! What tip are you going to try, or what other tip have you found that helps connect with your kid? Please leave a comment below and let me know.
