🧡 Topy Tip of the Week: The Tap Out Plan 🧡

(For parents and caregivers)

Even the most patient parent needs a moment to recharge.
Remember: You can’t co-regulate when you’re running on empty.

When a meltdown happens and you feel yourself becoming dysregulated tap out and let your partner (or another adult) step in.
It’s not giving up; it’s protecting your connection.

✨ Try this Tap Out Plan:
1️⃣ Use nonverbal signals – Decide on a subtle cue (a hand gesture, eye contact, or a word) that means “I need a break.”
2️⃣ Ground yourself – Step away, take a deep breath, and reset.
3️⃣ Create a calming script – Try saying:

“You’re safe. I’m here. We’ll get through this together.”

💛 Calm is contagious.
Protect your peace. Protect your connection.

🌟 3 Quick Ways to Support Your Child’s Social & Emotional Growth at Home 🌟

1️⃣ Name the Feeling – When your child is upset, help them put words to emotions (“You’re feeling frustrated because…”). Naming feelings reduces stress.

2️⃣ Practice the Pause – Teach your child to stop, breathe, and count to three before reacting. This builds self-control and problem-solving skills.

3️⃣ Model Calm – Kids mirror what they see. Taking a calm breath yourself shows them how to manage tough emotions.

💡 Small shifts like these build resilience, but many kids need extra support to thrive.

🌟 Family Resilience Toolkit: SEL Tips for Everyday Life 🌟

Building resilience doesn’t happen overnight, it’s a daily practice for parents and kids. Here are three simple SEL-inspired tools you can start using today:

🔹 Calm Corner – Create a small space at home with calming items (pillows, books, stress balls). Encourage kids to use it when they need to pause and reset.

🔹 Feelings Check-In – At dinner or bedtime, go around the table and share “one word” for how you’re feeling. This builds emotional awareness and empathy.

🔹 Power Phrases – Practice positive self-talk as a family. Try phrases like: “I can handle this,” “I’ll try again,” or “We’re stronger together.”

💡 Parent Tip: Model resilience by sharing how you manage challenges. When kids see you naming feelings and bouncing back, they learn to do the same.

✨ Together, your family can grow stronger, calmer, and more connected, one SEL tool at a time! ✨

🧡 TOPY PARENT TIP: How to Help Your Child Solve Problems (Before Behavior Escalates)

Bad behavior often isn’t about defiance — it’s about problem-solving struggles.
When kids act out, they may actually be saying:

“I don’t know how to handle this!”

Here’s how you can help your child learn problem-solving skills instead of reacting with tantrums or defiance:

🔶 5 Simple Steps to Build Problem-Solving Muscles

1. Pause Before Reacting
🚦 Behavior is communication. Try asking, “What’s really going on here?”
2. Name the Problem Together
🧠 “You’re upset because your brother took your toy. That makes sense.”
3. Ask, “What Could We Try?”
🤔 Encourage brainstorming (even silly ideas at first!). Let them feel empowered.
4. Pick One and Try It
🛠 Help them test a calm, respectful solution — like taking turns or asking for help.
5. Praise the Effort, Not Just Outcome
🌟 “I noticed how you paused and used your words. That’s amazing problem-solving!”

💬 Affirmation for You & Your Child

“I can figure things out when it feels hard.”

Say it together. Say it often. Believe it.

🎓 Struggling to Motivate Your Child in School? Try These 5 Evidence-Based Shifts

💬 “Why won’t my child care about school?”
If you’ve ever asked yourself this, you’re not alone. Motivation isn’t something we can force—it’s something we help children build from the inside out.

Here are 5 practical mindset shifts inspired by child behavior experts:

1. From “Do it now!” ➡️ to “Here’s the plan.”
🧠 Kids are more likely to follow through when instructions are calm, clear, and consistent. Avoid reactive commands; instead, give directions with respect and follow through without overexplaining or negotiating.

2. From “No rewards—learning is the reward!” ➡️ to “Effort deserves recognition.”
🏆 It’s okay to use short-term rewards to build longer-term habits. Rewards aren’t bribes—they’re reinforcements that show children their efforts matter.

3. From “I’ll fix this for you” ➡️ to “Let’s think it through together.”
💡 Help your child develop problem-solving skills by asking, “What’s your next step?” or “What could you try differently tomorrow?”

4. From “You’re being lazy” ➡️ to “You seem stuck—what’s getting in the way?”
😓 Motivation struggles often mask anxiety, fear of failure, or executive functioning difficulties. Ask questions with curiosity, not judgment.

5. From “Because I said so” ➡️ to “These are the expectations—and the consequences.”
⚖️ Natural and logical consequences teach accountability far better than yelling or punishment. Be consistent and firm—but always respectful.

🧩 The Big Picture:
Motivation is built through connection, clarity, and consequences that teach, not shame. It’s not about pushing harder—it’s about shifting how we lead.

Save this post for when the homework battles feel too big. You’ve got this—and your child can grow.

Back-to-School SEL Boost: 5 Practices for Parents to Help Kids Thrive This Year 📚💬

A new school year brings excitement, change, and sometimes a few jitters—for kids and parents. Now’s the perfect time to strengthen Social & Emotional Learning (SEL) at home, so your child starts the year feeling confident, connected, and ready to learn.

1️⃣ Morning “Feelings Check-Ins”
Make emotional awareness part of your routine. Over breakfast or on the way to school, ask:
• “What’s your mood today?”
• “What’s one thing you’re looking forward to?”

2️⃣ Practice “What-If” Scenarios
Before the first day, talk through common school situations:
• “What if someone is sitting where you want to sit?”
• “What if you feel nervous before a presentation?”
This builds problem-solving and emotional regulation skills.

3️⃣ End the Day with “Rose, Thorn, Bud”
At dinner or bedtime, share:
• Rose 🌹: Best moment of the day
• Thorn 🌵: Most challenging moment
• Bud 🌱: Something you’re excited about tomorrow
It helps kids reflect, process, and find the positive.

4️⃣ Create a Calm-Down Plan
Talk about strategies your child can use at school if they feel upset—deep breathing, counting to 10, or asking for a break. Practice them at home so they feel natural.

5️⃣ Model the Mindset You Want to See
Show curiosity about learning, manage stress out loud (“I’m taking a deep breath before I answer this email”), and celebrate effort over perfection.

💡 Why It Matters:
Strong SEL skills help kids navigate friendships, handle stress, and stay engaged in learning—setting them up for success all year long.

Here’s to a year of growth, confidence, and kindness. 🌟
