- Remove your child from the stimulant. It is difficult to calm a child when there is loud noise around, or lots of toys or fast-moving distractions, so try to take your child to a quiet or dim corner before speaking to them. Or if there is loud TV or music blaring, turn these off first before speaking to your child.
- When speaking to your toddler, crouch down to their level (it is less threatening for a child), and address them using a slow, low and calm voice. Try and use actions to accompany your words, e.g., the AUSLAN sign language for ‘STOP’ is one palm open flat in front of you, and with the other open palm strike downwards onto the middle of the flat palm.
- If they persist on charging around the room animatedly, re-direct this energy by joining them in some ‘heavy-duty’ activities, such as stomping around the room like elephants with big heavy steps, or pulling a heavy ‘delivery van’ (a bag full of books) around the room, so you can drop off and ‘make deliveries’ at different spots.
- Any activity that allows the left and right hemisphere of the brain to connect will ‘balance’ out both sides of the brain and bring about calmness after a few minutes. Crawling on the ground is a perfect example of increased left/right hemisphere connections.
- MUSIC ! – just as much as we want to hear loud thumping music at a dance party, playing calm music sets a calmer quieter mood in the room. Children are a lot more sensitive to music than adults are. Soft, calm music will, invariably, help regulate their mood and emotion.
