How do I know if my child is ready for kindergarten? How can children learn through play? Does nutrition, sleep, and activity really matter when kids are so young? I think my child might be neurodivergent. What should I do about it? What are magnet, charter, and private schools? And how do I choose what’s best?
In this series, we include interviews with experts in early childhood education, psychology, and pediatrics to discuss topics including the importance of play, managing toddler behavior, language and motor development, Kindergarten readiness, how to set up routines, and parent mental wellness.
Hosted by Dr. Emily King.

Using Routines and Visuals for Your Child with Kristen Balhoff, Conscious Discipline Instructor
As a parent of young children, do you find yourself thinking:
"Why can’t we ever find all the shoes?!?"
"Why can’t my child go potty, brush teeth, and put on PJs without being asked?”
"How do we always forget the backpack?!”
Sound familiar? Well today we're talking all about routines and how young children - especially children who aren't old enough to read yet - can use visuals to improve those daily functions that can sometimes cause parents to pull out their hair.
Kristen Balhoff is a Conscious Discipline Certified Instructor, working with young families in the Triangle, especially those with autistic or neuro divergent children like hers.
