Do you find your child responding “good”, “I don’t remember” or “I don’t know” when you ask them about their school day? Here are a few statements you can say to your child to initiate conversation. 🗣️ “What was the highlight of your day?”  🎙️ “What was the lowlight of your day?” 💭 “What are you grateful for today?” 🎤 “What is something that made you feel lots of happy emotions today?” 👥 “What are you looking forward to tomorrow?” 💬 “Was there anything that didn’t make you feel good today?” 🎙️ “If there was something you could change about your day, what would it be?” 🎤 “What would you rate your day from 1-10, 1 being not a great day and 10 being a really good day?” These open ended questions will support you and your child engage in two way conversation and will support build upon the parent-child relationship. ⚠️ Instagram ≠ Therapy #childpsychologist #psychologist #psych #mentalhealth #wellbeing #therapy #psychoeducation #children #childdevelopment #parentchild #parentchildrelationship #parentalsupport #aspirewellnessgroup
