Episode 68: Fun and Easy to reduce challenges in ADHD
What if the key to supporting your ADHD child isn’t just about addressing their challenges, but about embracing what they love? As a psychologist and a parent, I’ve realised that we often focus so much on fixing problems that we forget to celebrate the things our children enjoy. In this episode, I’ll be exploring how balancing structured growth with fun activities can help improve your child’s self-esteem, resilience, and overall happiness.
Have you ever considered how identifying your child’s strengths could make a real difference? Whether it’s a talent for drawing, a passion for sports, or an incredible memory, recognising these strengths is crucial for building confidence. I’ll explain why highlighting these qualities and encouraging activities that nurture them can help reduce behavioural struggles and bring more positivity into your child’s life.
So, can we make learning enjoyable instead of a constant battle? I’ll be sharing some creative strategies that involve your child’s passions in everyday learning. From turning problem-solving into a fun art project to using favourite characters for relaxation techniques, these methods not only engage ADHD kids but also help create a more enjoyable learning experience for them.
Are you ready to bring more fun and ease into your parenting routine? Tune in as I discuss how prioritising enjoyable moments and focusing on strengths can empower your ADHD child to thrive.
