TOOLS & STRATEGIES
Managing Difficult Behaviours
  • Kids with additional needs are so often misunderstood and incorrectly labelled as 'naughty', and then palmed off as someone else's problem as they appear unteachable.
  • What if you had training, tools, strategies and resources to better understand and interact with these kids?
  • Are you ready to challenge those misconceptions and traditional thought patterns around behaviour?
  • Are you ready to learn more about what these kids experience day in day out, as well as gain strategies to reduce sensory overwhelm, provide more movement breaks and set up routines to create calm and certainty in your life and theirs?

great for discussing emotions with my students

Great for discussing emotions with my students. I like the emoji and the cartoon character showing what each emotion looks like. They have helped my students explain their feelings better.

About

Meet Tash

Hi I'm Tash, Director of Little Wooden Toybox, designer of the Letter Basics resources (our own brand), single mum of two teens with ASD (Autism), ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and we've recently added PDA (Extreme Demand Avoidance) to the list - fun times!

My background is in teaching (B.Ed K-7) as well as special/additional needs, and this combined with over 10 years of early intervention has given me a unique insight into - Understanding difficult behaviours and why they occur

- Understanding how emotional regulation and sensory input impacts both us as parents and our little ones (diagnosed or not)

- Developing, implementing and managing resources & coping strategies to make home life calmer & more organised

All of these concepts and resources can be applied in the classroom, home and/or therapy; equipping parents, teachers, early childhood educators and therapists with tools and strategies to confidently manage difficult behaviours.

It's also important to note that these strategies also work for neurotypical children and children struggling with anxiety, helping to keep you and them calm and happy, and ready to learn and play!

“I have lived this day in & day out for the last 14 years – I am in a unique position to not only create amazing resources with input from therapists, but to test them in real life situations at home (where all the crazy comes out!)” – Tash K
