Quiet Praise Ideas - for kids who struggle with praise
Channel: Pooky Knightsmith Mental Health
Date: 2022-10-20

In today's video, I explore some simple ideas for expressing pride and praise when working with or caring for a child who doesn't respond well to praise. 

I'd love to hear what's working for you - please post your ideas in the comments. 

You can jump straight to the bit you'd like using the video chapters of these timestamps:

00:00 - Introduction 
00:44 - defer it
01:25 - smile
01:58 - note it
03:46 - praise the process
