Raising Deaf Kids- Hard of hearing, Hearing Loss, Sign Language, ASL, Listening and Spoken Language, Hearing Impaired

We talk about language skills a lot on this podcast, but how much are you considering HOW you talk to your child and WHAT You are saying to your child?

Lacy Wood of Alabama Hands and Voices and founder of Little People Big Feelings is on the podcast today to teach us about how to talk to your child in a way that supports them socially and emotionally.

In this episode Lacey gives parents some really great strategies for how to talk to your kids, and also ways that we can become more self- aware of what language and stories that we’re bringing into our parenting from our own childhood.

This is a really great one filled with so many great nuggets of info all laced with grace and compassion for parents who are trying their hardest each day.
