Suid-Afrika het minder as 40 geregistreerde psigiaters wat in kinders en tieners spesialiseer – dit sluit die private sowel as openbare sektor in. Die meeste spesialiste is in Gauteng en die Wes-Kaap, wat beteken dat sommige provinsies glad nie oor voldoende hulp beskik nie.

Here is three fun activities to do with children struggling with self-regulation and self-control
❤️🧡💚

🌟 Fun Ways to Boost Your Child’s Self-Control! 🌟

Looking for playful ways to help your kids practice self-control (a skill that supports success at home, school, and beyond)? These simple variations of a childhood favorite game make it fun while building important life skills! 💪👧🧒

🎲 1️⃣ Red Light, Green Light
A classic! Kids move on “green light,” slow on “yellow,” and freeze on “red.” You can add obstacles or creative movement options (skip, gallop, hop) to make it even more engaging and challenge their focus and impulse control. 🚦

🖍 2️⃣ Art “Stop & Go” Game
Let kids draw or paint during “green,” then pause completely on “red” or slow down on “yellow.” Great for creativity and self-regulation skills like controlling speed and attention! 🖌️

👫 3️⃣ Partner Movement Challenges
Pair up and have kids move together—linked arms, holding hands—through different movement prompts. This adds teamwork and extra listening/self-control practice! 🤝

⭐ These games aren’t just fun—they help kids learn to stop, think, and regulate their movements and behaviors in playful ways! 💡

Have you tried these with your kids? Want the handout and printable stop, go, slow signs? Drop a 🛑 below and we will send you the link to grab it!
