Practice active listening: Encourage kids to pay attention to what is being said, ask clarifying questions, and provide feedback to show that they are listening. Active listening doesn’t mean all you’re doing is staring at each other and talking. Let your child finish their soliloquy on how garbage trucks work before you jump in with a response. Make eye contact, nod your head in agreement and try other non-verbal gestures (like pointing) and expressions (raising your eyebrows) to show them you’re interested in what they’re saying.
