With things getting blowy around the state you might be dealing with some worried or anxious kids. Here's a couple of ways to help them through - and remember, the Ngala Parenting Line will be open from 8am to 8pm every day, so you can always call us for more tips 📱
- Acknowledge their feelings and empathise with them
- Don't avoid it - talk to them in a reassuring way and let them know what to expect
- Remain calm yourself, kids will often mirror your behaviour
There is also a great resource in the comments, providing guidance on how to prepare your child for a cyclone and reassure themđź’ś
For everyone being affected please keep an eye on the Department of Fire and Emergency Services WA page or the Emergency WA app for updates on alerts.
Take care and stay safe everyone.
