Supporting breaks and sharing needs helps children feel safe to be themselves and better able to enjoy learning and family time in the new year. 🌈

🎉 New Year fun fact for families
Children often need more breaks than adults, especially during busy or exciting times. Their bodies and emotions work hard to keep up.

Taking breaks is not giving up. It is how children recharge and feel safe. 💛

At Melville OT, we help families understand what their child is communicating and how to support them with kindness and confidence as the new year begins. 🌈
