Not every challenging behavior is a choice.

When a child is experiencing sensory overload, their nervous system may be overwhelmed by sounds, lights, movement, touch, or other sensory input. What looks like defiance on the outside may actually be a child struggling to cope on the inside.

Understanding the difference between sensory overload and behavioral defiance can help us respond with empathy, support, and strategies that meet the child's needs.

Behavior is communication. The key is learning what the child is trying to tell us. What questions do you have?

Finish this sentence 👇

My child regulates best when ______.

Maybe it’s:
• swinging or jumping
• being outside
• quiet time with a book
• deep pressure (hugs, squeezes)
• listening to music
• having a consistent routine

Every child is different—and sometimes the best ideas come from other parents who just get it and have 'been there, done that.' 🤍

Your answer might help another family find something that works for them too.

We know summer can feel crazy and busy—camps, trips, activities, all the things.

But if you’re having a more chill, stay-at-home/in-town kind of summer and looking for a simple routine… this is for you 🤍

Try this easy rhythm:

☀️ Morning = movement
Get the wiggles out early (outside play, jumping, swinging, obstacle courses)

🧘 Midday = calm
Build in quiet time (books, coloring, sensory bins, rest time)

🌅 Evening = more movement
Let them get those last wiggles out (backyard play while you grill, bikes, water play, running around)

🌙 After dinner = wind-down
Help the body slow down (bath time, dim lights, snuggles, calming play)

This kind of flow supports your child’s nervous system and can make a big difference in regulation throughout the day 💫

Save this to try this summer!

We love water play!! 💦

It provides sensory input that can help your child:
• regulate their emotions
• improve focus and attention
• explore new textures in a low-pressure way

It’s also a great way to support sensory development while keeping things simple and playful.

Water play doesn't have to just be pools, lakes, and beaches this summer. Think: water tables, buckets, pouring, splashing, even bath time 🛁

Sometimes the best “therapy” looks like play 💫

Save this for an easy go-to activity this summer!

Let’s celebrate the little wins!!

What’s one win your child had this weekend? 👏
Big or small—we want to hear it!

Maybe it was:
• trying a new food
• getting through a tough transition
• using words instead of a meltdown
• staying regulated a little longer
• using the potty

Those moments matter more than you think, and we'd love to cheer you on!

Drop your win in the comments and let’s encourage each other! 🥳

Floor time > containers (most of the time) 👶🤍

Baby containers (swings, bouncers, seats, etc.) can be helpful in small amounts—but too much time in them can actually limit development.

Why?

Because babies learn best through movement and exploration.

Floor time supports:
• strength and muscle development
• rolling, crawling, and coordination
• sensory exploration
• body awareness (proprioception + vestibular input)

When babies are on the floor, they’re able to move freely, problem-solve, and build the foundation for future skills.

Containers = support for you
Floor time = growth for them

Aim for more time on the floor than in containers throughout the day when you can. 🫶 💫

Save this as a reminder and share with a new mama who might need it!
