How Can Parents and Caregivers Encourage Deep Breathing Exercises?
Model the Behavior: Children learn by example, so parents and caregivers should practice deep breathing exercises themselves. Make it Fun: Use games or visual aids like bubbles or pinwheels to make deep breathing exercises more engaging for children. Be Consistent: Consistency is key. Incorporate deep breathing exercises into daily routines to help children develop this skill. Create a Calm Environment: Find a quiet, comfortable space where the child can focus on their breathing without distractions.
