Five Star Review!
I’m doing mindfulness as my alternative evaluation. I read this book on one of my Mindful Monday’s and I also downloaded the poster. As a RSP teacher, I refer to it often and the kids like it too!! – Jennifer V.

AI-generated from the text of customer reviews
Are you constantly asking yourself “What were you thinking?” when it comes to your child’s impulsive behavior? You’re not alone. Children ages 6-9 are still developing their executive function skills, which includes the ability to control impulses.
Here are some tips to help your child learn to control their impulses:
1. Set clear expectations: Make sure your child knows what is expected of them in different situations. Clearly communicate rules and consequences for not following them.
2. Teach problem-solving skills: Help your child learn to think before acting by teaching them how to problem-solve and make decisions. Encourage them to consider the consequences of their actions.
3. Practice self-regulation: Help your child learn to regulate their emotions and behavior by teaching them strategies such as deep breathing or counting to 10 before reacting impulsively.
4. Provide structure and routine: Establishing a consistent daily routine can help your child learn to anticipate and prepare for different situations, reducing the likelihood of impulsive behavior.
5. Encourage positive reinforcement: Praise and reward your child when they demonstrate self-control and make good decisions. Positive reinforcement can help reinforce desired behavior.
Remember, developing executive function skills takes time and practice. Be patient with your child as they learn to control their impulses and make better choices. With your guidance and support, they will develop the skills they need to succeed.
