Try whispering!
Some people may have seen/tried this already but I saw a video yesterday about whispering instructions to your child. Tried it and he pays so much more attention because he has to stop and actually focus on what we’re saying. Doesn’t have to be an actual whisper just quieter than normal. So if you’re struggling to get your little one’s attention maybe give it a go?
It does seem to work… but it’s rare that my child isn’t screaming so it’s hard to find a time to use this as she can’t hear me whispering over her chaos 🤷🏼♀️
