Sometimes it feels like our tweens and teens are living on a different planet. How are we supposed to know exactly what they need from us?

That's exactly what Emily asks play expert and Hand in Hand instructor Kirsten Nottleson this week. 

Listen in to hear how to decode tween and teen behavior, keep relationships warm, and connection strong. Because although they may act like they don't need or value your caring, tweens and teens still need you close. 

Tune In To Hear:

  • How to give the downtime your child needs without them feeling isolated. 
  • Decoding tween and teen calls for attention, and responding well when your child has stopped begging you to play or "look at me."
  • Ways to add sparkle, smiles and warmth to everyday interactions.
  • Retuning Special Time with older kids, so you still enjoy doses of delight in each other. 
  • Why your persistence in connecting matters & adopting an "experimentor" mindset.
