Let's talk about room wrecking in therapy... this is not willful misbehaviour, it's actually a form of communication. Room wrecking looks like damaging toys, throwing items, overturning furniture, or pulling everything off of shelves.

When calm, we normalize their feelings without promoting the behaviour. When calm, we name the emotions and triggers. When calm, we make a plan together for what they can do next time, knowing we will hear them. We identify triggers for early interventions before total escalation.

Children may need something concrete to cue certain behaviours, tasks, or responses. In our Friendly Hearts social skills group, kids created beautiful kindness rocks to place in areas of their house that will remind them to be kind to others each and every day. When doing this as a group, kids got the chance to practice their kindness through using manners, giving compliments, sharing, turn taking, and including others. πŸ’– thanks to Melissa for showing off how her kindness rock was made!

We had an amazing time at the this past Sunday at Bingemans in Kitchener! This was a great opportunity to connect with expecting moms and local parents of babies and toddlers about our post-partum therapy services, attachment based therapies, playful child-friendly approaches, and our upcoming baby and me group! We had a wonderful sensory wall and sandtrays with miniatures for children to interact with. We also had free co-regulation kits for parents to take home! We look forward to more community engagement in the future and had such a lovely time meeting everyone.
