❤️ these ideas for helping your child learn and engage with social interactions using everyday opportunities that arise naturally.

Promover la inclusión y la interacción social de tu hijo es un proceso lleno de pequeños pasos que pueden generar grandes cambios 💛. Aquí te compartimos algunas estrategias:

👧👦 1. Actividades con intereses comunes
Busca juegos o temas que le encanten para que conecte con otros niños de manera natural.

🗣️ 2. Modela habilidades sociales
Practiquen juntos cómo saludar, pedir turnos o invitar a otros a jugar. ¡El juego de roles funciona muy bien!

💬 3. Usa apoyos visuales y sociales
Historias sociales y pictogramas pueden ayudarle a entender qué esperar en cada interacción.

🧩 4. Crea oportunidades estructuradas
Playdates cortas, grupos pequeños o actividades con guía favorecen la interacción positiva.

👏 5. Celebra sus logros
Cada intento cuenta. Refuerza con cariño cada avance en su comunicación con otros.

En TIIBA acompañamos a las familias para que cada niño se sienta parte, respetado y valorado. ✨

📩 ¿Necesitas apoyo personalizado? ¡Estamos aquí para ayudarte!

Yup, tantrums do happen and so do big feelings! Check out this blog post from Partners in Child Development

Toddlers pushing boundaries is a very typical developmental activity. Getting through them with steady and measured reactions will help the child cope with their strong feelings.
