Podcasts about preschoolers

Welcome to Hacking your ADHD. I'm your host, William Curb, and I have ADHD. On this podcast, I dig into the tools, tactics, and best practices to help you work with your ADHD brain. Today I'm joined by Skye Waterson for our Research Recap series. In this series, we take a look at a single research paper, dive into what the paper says, how it was conducted, and try to find any key practical takeaways—stuff that you can actually use. In this episode, we're going to be discussing a paper called Do Executive Dysfunction, Delay Aversion and Time Perception Deficits Predict ADHD Symptoms and Early Academic Performance in Preschoolers. And yeah, there's a lot in there, but don't worry, we'll be getting into all of it. Before we get started, I want to mention that this is still a new series, so we're going to be figuring out what works and what doesn't, and I'd love to hear what you all think of it. So if you have thoughts, head on over to hackingyouradhd.com/contact and let me know. I appreciate all the feedback I've already gotten, and we're definitely going to be working on organizing the episodes a little bit more to help you get the most out of every one. New episodes of Research Recap will be coming out every other Friday. And with that, let's get into it.

What if the arrangement everyone claims is "best for children" after separation is actually harming them? This provocative question forms the foundation of our deep dive into the dangerous myth of 50-50 equal shared parenting time.Drawing on Australian government-commissioned research and international studies, we expose how equal shared care arrangements can negatively impact children's emotional regulation and attachment security - particularly for young children under four years of age. The science is clear: children don't benefit from mathematical equality in care arrangements - they need parenting plans tailored to their developmental stages and individual needs.We unpack the stunning hypocrisy in how primary caregiving work (most often performed by mothers) is valued before separation versus after. Society demands mothers sacrifice everything as primary caregivers, then suddenly treats that caregiving as worthless when parents separate. This isn't about gender equality - it's about using the language of "fairness" to mask a profound devaluation of nurturing work.The developmental reality is that children's needs vary dramatically with age. Babies and toddlers forming primary attachments need consistent, predictable access to their primary caregiver. Preschoolers developing emotion regulation still need a secure base. School-aged children benefit from stability during the school term. Teenagers need input into their own arrangements. One size simply doesn't fit all, and arrangements that might harm a two-year-old could be appropriate for a twelve-year-old.Trust your instincts if you're being pressured into arrangements that don't feel right. The consequences of inappropriate arrangements can be severe -attachment disruption, chronic stress, emotion regulation difficulties, and academic problems that are often dismissed as "normal adjustment" when they're actually warning signs. Your job isn't keeping other adults happy - it's advocating for arrangements that support your children's healthy development, even when that means challenging popular assumptions.

Hi friends, welcome back to the Autism Little Learners Podcast. I'm Tara, a speech-language pathologist who has spent over 25 years working with young autistic children and their families. Today, we're going to talk about a topic that brings up a lot of feelings for educators, therapists, and parents: the Picture Exchange Communication System, or PECS. Specifically, why PECS isn't enough for preschoolers. Now, before I dive in, I want to be clear—PECS is not evil. It's not “bad.” For many kids, it has opened the door to communication, and that's something to celebrate. But PECS, on its own, isn't enough. Our preschoolers need more than compliance-based exchanges to build rich, lifelong communication. Takeaways PECS was created in the 1990s to teach kids to request items using pictures. Traditional PECS training often emphasized compliance over authentic communication. Rigid use of PECS protocols sometimes caused frustration and meltdowns in children. PECS has major limitations, including prompt dependency and a narrow focus on requests. Research shows PECS helps with requesting, but not broader communication or social connection. Evidence-based practice must balance research, clinical experience, and client perspectives. Autistic adults report that PECS can restrict autonomy, dignity, and language development. PECS can be a stepping stone, but should not be the final communication system. Robust AAC systems provide greater vocabulary, flexibility, and authentic language use. Communication should always prioritize connection, not compliance.

Chad shares data from a new study showing how often medication is prescribed for preschoolers diagnosed with ADHD before the recommended therapy. Do the numbers surprise or concern you as it does Chad?

Anyone wishing ill health on President Trump needs to rethink their values. Chad opens the hour with that opinion before hearing the best wrong answers about what was in a bag tossed from a window at the White House over the weekend. Plus, does the rate of prescription medications given to preschoolers before any therapy takes place shock or concern you?

The availability of child care for children ages 3 to 5 in Oregon is steadily increasing, according to a new report from Oregon State University. In 2018, three-quarters of the state’s counties were considered preschool child care deserts, but as of last year, that number dropped to just nine. However, all but two counties are still considered child care deserts for children ages 0 to 2.   Megan Pratt is an associate professor of practice at OSU and the report’s lead author. Alyssa Chatterjee is the director of the Oregon Department of Early Learning and Care. They both join us with more details on what the state’s child care landscape looks like today.

  Fostering positive relationships with autistic preschoolers is incredibly important. In this episode, I talk about emotional safety, understanding sensory needs, and the role of co-regulation in supporting self-regulation. The discussion highlights the need to step out of traditional teacher roles, validate autistic play, and harness deep interests to create meaningful connections. Core values such as compassion over compliance and honoring neurodiversity are explored, along with strategies for creating joyful, neuroaffirming classrooms. The conversation concludes with a focus on the long-term impact of connection and the importance of empowering educators and caregivers. Takeaways: Positive relationships create emotional safety for children. Understanding sensory needs is crucial for connection. Co-regulation supports self-regulation in children. Stepping out of teacher mode fosters authentic connections. Autistic play is valid and meaningful, reflecting unique interactions. Deep interests can be a doorway to connection. Compassion over compliance is essential in education. Creating joyful, neuroaffirming classrooms enhances learning. Presuming competence in communication builds trust. Connection lays the foundation for long-term success.

In this episode, I respond to a question from Mara in North Carolina—and a handful of other listeners—about working with very young children in Child-Centered Play Therapy, specifically those under the age of five. I share what you can expect when seeing toddlers and preschoolers in the playroom, including how their play differs, what sessions often look like, and how the process tends to unfold at a much faster pace. I also talk through common concerns like session length, speech challenges, attachment to caregivers, and the tendency toward repetitive play. While the CCPT model stays the same, younger clients show us the power of the process in a condensed and accelerated form. This episode is a great resource for anyone working with—or considering taking on—younger kids in the playroom. PlayTherapyNow.com is my HUB for everything I do! playtherapynow.com.

In parenting today - we've all seen a full pre-schooler in full meltdown mode. Sometimes that's because they're tired or hungry - or even hangry. But it can also be because they've misunderstood what adults are saying.
