Say This, Not That — Fridge Card
Instead of: If you don't clean your room right now, Santa isn't bringing you presents! Try: I've noticed it's been tough to clean up your room lately. What's making that hard? Instead of: You need to share that truck right now or I'm taking it away! Try: You're playing with that truck right now. When you're finished with your turn, can you let your sister know? Instead of: Look at me when I'm speaking to you and calm down! Try: (Lowering eye contact, stepping back, soft voice) "I am right here with you. Take all the time you need." Instead of: Stop crying right now or I'll give you a real reason to cry! Try: It is safe to let those big tears out. I am sitting right here to keep you safe. Instead of: It's not a big deal, you're fine! Wipe your tears. Try: You're feeling really disappointed that we have to leave the park. It's tough when fun ends. Instead of: You shouldn't be angry at your sister, she loves you! Try: You feel furious that she took your toy. It is okay to feel angry, but it is not okay to push. Instead of: Go clean up your entire playroom right now! Try: There are a lot of items out. Let's start by picking up just the red blocks together. Instead of: You are so smart for getting an A on that test! Try: You spent a lot of time reviewing those tricky problems! How does it feel to see your effort pay off? Instead of: Remember your coat, your lunchbox, your backpack, your shoes, and hurry! Try: First shoes, then backpack. What's the very first step? Instead of: Don't worry, the shot won't hurt at all! Try: The medicine feels like a quick pinch for three seconds. You can squeeze my hand tightly while we count to three.

- ☐ First shoes, then backpack
