#136: Unwrapping Holiday Strategies for Kids with ADHD

Travel. Turkey. Traditions. Toys. Treats. All are great things that the holidays bring. But let’s be real, those treasures come with disrupted sleep, inconsistent schedules, unfair expectations from relatives and MELTDOWNS (from kids and parents, honestly.) Turns out two things can be true at the same time. The holidays can bring a ton of sweetness AND stress. It is all part of the experience. Our goal is to help you have more of the sweet moments and less of the stressful ones! Today on the podcast, we are sharing our top tips to not just survive, but help your child with ADHD thrive during this holiday season.

MEET THE TEAM

We are Lori, Mallory, and Katie. Lori and Mallory are child psychologists, and Katie is a speech language pathologist. We’ve spent decades supporting thousands of families navigating ADHD. And we’re also moms: some of us raising kids with ADHD and some of us navigating it ourselves… which means we understand both the science and the real-life moments that don’t make it into textbooks.
