Does your kid make constant out-of-place noises?
Have you noticed them doing them even after you've asked them to stop?
These noises are not arbitrary!
We could be talking about any kind of noises, loud or soft, chatter, clicking sounds, hand-clapping, you name it.
This is not them making nonsense sounds, as kids normally do. This is called "filtering".
These noises are actually helping them stay regulated if they´re experiencing some sort of dysregulation (such as sensory overload or sensory understimulation), it's quite impressive!
It can, however, get overwhelming for you if it happens constantly.
Which is why it's important to find a way to address it while still meeting everybody's needs.
So in this episode we'll cover:
- Why kids make so much noise.
- What filtering is.
- How we can help our children filter so that it's less disruptive.
