Book Release: 101 Ways to Help Your Highly Sensitive Child Empty Their Bucket: Calming Tools During Times of Overwhelm
It has been a labour of love and a long time in the making, but “101 Ways to Help Your Highly Sensitive Child Empty Their Bucket: Calming Tools During Times of Overwhelm” is now a fact.
A highly sensitive child processes sensory stimuli deeply and extensively and is therefore easily overwhelmed by busy activities, a day at school or just too much sensory input in general.
Everything a HSC experiences go into their imaginary bucket. The younger a child is, the more goes into their bucket as they are unable to determine what needs to be filtered out.
Too much stimulation and their bucket overflows. We can learn to recognise the signs of an overflowing bucket: 6 Signs Your Highly Sensitive Child is Overwhelmed (aka Their Bucket is Full).
And we can learn to help our HSCs manage their buckets better.
Purposely setting aside regular bucket time gives your HSC the time and space they need to empty out their full bucket. Better still, with careful planning, you can avoid your HSC’s bucket filling in the first place.
The key is learning what empties your child’s bucket.
In short, I created “101 Ideas to Help Your Highly Sensitive Child Empty Their Bucket: Calming Tools During Times of Overwhelm” in response to parents like you who asked for bucket emptying ideas.
