    Two Hands-On Activities to Help Kids Practice Problem Solving

    CALM AND CONNECTED - EPISODE 102

    Throughout your life growing up, have you ever come up against a problem you just couldn’t solve? We learn very valuable skills at school but we don’t learn every single skill needed for everyday life so in this episode, I teach you some hands-on ways to practice problem solving with your child.

    The topics I cover in this episode are:

    • The 5 steps to problem solving

    • The benefits of learning and playing simultaneously

    • A newspaper and tape challenge - what is it? 

    • The interesting side to different children groups doing the same exercise

    • My second strategy with play dough and toothpicks

    • Practicing smaller problems help with bigger problems in real life
