What You’ll Learn in This Episode
- Understanding ADHD types and hyperactivity’s role in child behavior
- Practical strategies to help children with ADHD channel excess energy constructively
- Techniques rooted in neurodevelopment to support focus, mood regulation, and self-calming
Key Takeaways
- Physical Activity for Energy Release: Structured movement like jumping jacks or balance cushion exercises can calm children with ADHD, helping them expend excess energy and refocus.
- Deep Pressure & Proprioception: Activities like wall pushes, weighted blankets, or carrying a backpack help ground the nervous system and promote calm.
- Sensory Calming Kits: Creating a kit with sensory tools (fidget toys, lavender, headphones) allows kids to self-regulate during stressful moments.
- Calming Routines: Consistent routines, especially around transitions like starting homework or heading to bed, help create predictability, reducing anxiety and improving focus.
Practical Tips for Parents
- Create Movement Breaks: Set a timer for periodic breaks where your child can engage in active tasks to reset focus.
- Incorporate Deep Pressure: Before study time or other tasks, have your child engage in deep pressure activities like wall pushes or carrying a heavy object.
- Build a Sensory Kit Together: Let your child choose calming items to create a personalized kit they can use whenever they feel restless.
- Establish Calming Routines: Integrate mindfulness exercises, breathing, or gentle stretches at key transition points in the day.
