⏰🌷 Daylight Saving Time begins Sunday, March 8!

When we “spring forward,” kids may feel that lost hour of sleep 😴. Try moving bedtime earlier by 10–15 minutes and keep bedtime routines consistent to help them adjust 🛏️✨

Why do school-age kids suddenly talk less?

They’re growing.

As kids get older, they start processing more internally.
They’re building independence.
They’re figuring out who they are.

Silence doesn’t mean distance.
It often means development.

Keep showing up. Keep listening.
They’re still talking, just in new ways.
💛💛💛💛💛💛
¿Por qué los niños en edad escolar de repente hablan menos?

Están creciendo.

A medida que crecen, comienzan a procesar más cosas internamente.
Están desarrollando independencia.
Están descubriendo quiénes son.

El silencio no significa distancia.
Muchas veces significa desarrollo.

Siga presente. Siga escuchando.
Todavía están hablando, solo que de nuevas maneras. 💛

Body image struggles are increasingly common among teens — but supportive conversations at home can make a big difference. 💙

This helpful article from Children’s National shares practical tips for parents.

Questions or concerns? Spring Pediatrics is here to help.

The media’s push towards a specific “ideal image” can become a dangerous and sometimes life-threatening one.

Tip: calming phrases that help children

Try saying:
• “I can see this is frustrating.”
• “Do you want help, or do you want to talk it out?”
• “That makes sense.”
• “Let’s take a breath together.”

You don’t have to solve everything right away.
Feeling understood helps kids calm down and think more clearly. 💛

🏅 What Can the Winter Olympics Teach Our Kids?

The Winter Olympics aren’t just exciting to watch, they’re a great way to talk with kids about perseverance, teamwork, resilience, and sportsmanship. Athletes show us that success comes from hard work, support, and bouncing back after setbacks.
