How to Help Kids Manage Boredom - 151

CONNIE ALBERS
About this episode

How do you manage boredom? Boredom plagues us all at one time or another. No one is immune to it. Boredom is often a sign that you're tired of the same things over and over, even if you like routine. But, boredom is actually a good thing. It means that you have time and margin in your day to stop and think. Boredom means you have the space for creativity, innovation, and adventure rather than a robotic existence.

 

In this episode, I share three steps to managing boredom plus a list of practical ways to redirect your kids (and you!) when they say they are bored. Read the full show notes with links here: https://conniealbers.com/manage-boredom
