That is why we put together this basic list of techniques to handle challenging behavior. We can use these in order to gently support children in developing self-regulation and self-control. Some of the 'tools' we discuss are redirection, offering choices, emotion coaching (The FLIP-it method), appropriate consequences, and making things fun! We end with talking about the most important and powerful part of guidance: the relationship. Children need to know that we are there for them...
