4. Break Tasks into Smaller Steps: Break down tasks into manageable
chunks to prevent overwhelm. Celebrate small achievements along the
way.
7. Use Positive Reinforcement: Praise your child for good behavior and
accomplishments. Positive reinforcement encourages repetition of
desired actions.
8. Implement Consequences Consistently: Set clear consequences for
inappropriate behavior and enforce them consistently. Be firm but loving
in your approach
10. Encourage Healthy Eating Habits: Limit sugary snacks and fizzy
drinks, as they can exacerbate hyperactivity. Opt for nutritious snacks like
fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
Managing Tantrums:
Tantrums are a natural part of childhood, especially for energetic little
ones. Here are some tips for managing tantrums effectively:
Stay calm and composed. Your child looks to you for guidance on
how to handle emotions.
Validate your child's feelings. Let them know it's okay to feel upset,
but not okay to behave inappropriately.
Distract and redirect attention to a different activity or topic.
Set clear boundaries and stick to them. Consistency is key in
preventing future tantrums.
Avoid giving in to demands just to stop the tantrum. This reinforces
negative behavior.
After the tantrum subsides, offer comfort and reassurance.
By implementing these strategies consistently, you can help your
hyperactive child thrive while promoting positive behavior and healthy
habits.
Remember, every child is unique, so feel free to adapt these methods to
suit your family's needs. You've got this!
