One thing that can be very helpful for highly sensitive children is allowing them time to observe, and creating a safe space for them to do so. This gives them the time and space to honour their nervous system and process what is happening around them, but I've found that this isn't always easy to do...especially in social settings and we get FOMO on behalf of our child! This weekend I was chuffed when Ori told me "my tummy doesn't feel ready" to try something new and showed me a glimpse of what it can look like when children honour their nervous system and are supported in doing so.
