As parents we all know that when hunger strikes, a tantrum can follow quickly!

Teach kids to get in tune with their body and learn cues from what their body is telling them.

Erika explains, “There are lots of cues from your heart beat to temperature to hunger and thirst. It is important we listen to our bodies to give it what it needs. This is true for both adults and kids.”

Erika found this great website by Gabi Garcia where she talks about her book, Listening To My Body.

Try talking about these cues with your kids and use this chart in the link below. Throughout the day you can reference your body and how it is feeling.

You will see how wonderful the worksheets are that Gabi Garcia has put together. I have an image of one of the worksheets below:

Hope you find these sheets as helpful as we did!

I’m Anne

I love to write about all things Long Island and family. I was born and raised here and as a local, I want to share all the great things I have loved about living here since I was a child. Our community is filled with great people, amazing local businesses, beautiful nature sites, scenic beaches, craveable restaurants and so much more. My husband and I knew when we had our first child that I would become a stay-at-home mom. Thanks to my love for sharing all the things I love about Long Island, my blog was created in 2013.

We are dedicated to linking families and businesses together for the benefit of all.
I hope you enjoy all that Momee Friends offers whether it is a smile, craft, recipe, friendly advice, or an event for your family to attend together in a safe and creative environment.

I hope you enjoy my blog and find it informative! Please feel free to comment and share your experiences with all your fellow Momee Friends! I want this blog to be for all of us and I want it to be an enjoyable site that you absolutely love to visit!
