Between the ages of 5-10 or so, kids are really figuring out who they are. They are still little and are with adults a lot. But they’re definitely their own people with their own feelings and desires.
In today’s episode of Best of Both Worlds, I interview Alyssa Blask Campbell, author of Big Kids, Bigger Feelings. The book talks about “navigating defiance, meltdowns, and anxiety to raise confident, connected kids,” (from the subtitle). We talk strategies for helping kids manage emotions and thrive during the elementary school years.
In the Q&A, we take a question from a beginning runner who’s looking for advice. Please give the episode a listen, and as always, we welcome ratings and reviews.
As a mom of two teens I almost skipped this one, but it was an excellent conversation and relevant topics for any age. Would recommend to anyone. Thank you!
