Transitions, Travel, and Tantrums, Oh MY!
Help for you. Peace for your child.
3:00pm – 3:45pm

Traveling and transitioning from one activity to another is a very common trigger for challenging behavior, especially for children with emotional or developmental challenges. Behaviors can take the form of resistance, avoidance, distraction, negotiation or a full-blown meltdown. In this session, you will discover ways to navigate the tantrums and bring on the calm.
