| 180 Child Stuck On Past Tense Mistakes? How To Help In 4 Steps! | 19 Sep 2024 | 00:19:38 | |
Hey Friends~ Is your child using past tense mistakes like “I maked it,” instead of “I made it” ? Do they use present tense instead of past: “I cook,” when it was actually this morning when they helped with breakfast? Past tense errors are a common indicator showing a child needs some help with language development. A common mistake parents make is thinking the child will simply figure it out. While that can be true sometimes, waiting also allows them to create habits that later need to be undone and re-learned. If you’d like to know how to help your child with using better language NOW, listen in for 4 simple steps to make the correction easy. Why not help your child early, along the way, as they are developing! Always cheering you on! Dinalynn CONTACT the Host, Dinalynn: hello@thelanguageofplay.com

| 80 Teaching or Telling. Know The Difference For Better Listening and Compliance! | 15 Sep 2023 | 00:12:43 | |
Hey Friends, When we tell our kids to do things, we know what we expect they do. It is natural for us to think they understand the whole picture when they have demonstrated in the past, they can do it. However, their behavior tells you what your child does not yet FULLY understand. Their behavior - or lack thereof - is a window into what you still need to TEACH. So, today's topic is the difference between TEACHING and TELLING! And a story of what happens when we TELL and wrongly think that we already taught! I'm always cheering you on! Dinalynn

Hey Friends, Do you ever wish that you could Re-Parent yourself? Well, you can it’s true. Many people come to adulthood and have some baggage from their upbringing. In fact, most everybody has some kind of experience that they brought with them to adulthood. Those traumatic or even "normal" experiences are not helping them be the best parent they want to be, nor it is helping them be the best human they want to be. Something lingers... even after you try to forget, forgive, and know it is done. I want you to know that: You can speak to that part of you that is still small, still young, and still growing. You can be the parent to yourself so you get what the little you needed. Always Cheering you on!!

Well, it is not so cute when the habit has formed and your child is grown! Today, I will show you how to teach your young child, ages 3-6, how to say that sound in a way that is easy and effective, while y our child is still in that early stage of sound learning.

Hello Parents! The R sound is one of the most common reasons a child comes to speech therapy in the schools. Speech Pathologists have lots of ways to help, and still some kids continue to struggle. However, there are somethings you can do at home to increase the likelihood your kiddo won’t struggle with R. So - if you have every wondered what you can do to help your child at home with R this episode is for you! Today, I give you strategies that help for older kids with sound errors as well as the toddler that hasn’t been expected to say the R sound yet. So come along for some well-rounded advice in sound development. The strategies in this episode are classified as "Auditory Bombardment," which means, these are ways to bombard your child's brain and ears with the correct pronunciation of R. These strategies work at the speed of home-life and can be integrated easily into what you are already doing! All the best to you!!

| 50 How You Create Confusion asking, ”Why Did You Do That!?” - but it Wasn’t a Question! | 01 Jun 2023 | 00:20:11 | |
Hello Friends, Today we celebrate 50 Episodes! And, we continue the conversation from last time. Your child - No Doubt - does things that make NO SENSE to you!~ We are left scratching our heads in wonder or leaving you in a state of frustration! We ask "Why did you do that!?" half meaning "stop it!" and half authentically inquiring. Last time, we considered the power of the authentic, curious inquiry. Today, we discuss the detrimental power of using that question as a statement of correction, blame, sarcasm, or shame. Most of us experienced some of this as we grew up. We will discuss the outcomes and how you can identify and make empowering choices for yourself and your family. Are we creating confusion when “Why did you do that?” is not actually a question?

Hello Friends, I am glad you are here! Happy Memorial Day 2023 to my American listeners! Your child - No Doubt - does things that make NO SENSE to you!~ We are left scratching our heads in wonder or leaving you in a state of frustration! We ask "Why did you do that!?" half meaning "stop it!" and half authentically inquiring. Today, we will discuss that authentic inquiry. Come learn how to ask "Why?" in a way that gets you to understand what is actually going on inside your child's brain, by listening to a story! Does your child get confused when you ask “Why?” questions? Do they struggle to answer in a way that makes sense? There are a few possibilities for this. The first part of this is. Are You causing the confusion? We usually think we speak clearly. However, as adults, our tone and body language has lots of meaning embedded that causes what we say to not actually mean what we say. The younger our kids are, the more literal thinkers they are. Are we creating confusion when “Why did you do that?” is not actually a question? Cheering you on!

Hey Friends! Does it feel weird to tell your kids, "We are celebrating Mother's Day!" if you are only talking about yourself? We moms often feel like we can celebrate another mom, but ourselves, "well, we don't need to do that." This isn't healthy thinking, but it is REAL! This episode will explain how Celebrating YOU is really good for your kids. And, I hope you feel loved and cared for along the way, even as we need to teach our children how to do it.

It just takes a little adjustment. Today, we discuss 4 strategies to help you help your kiddos adjust! Let's look at how we can read our littlest ones for clues to understand them better.
