with Lenora Edwards
Ever thought about how the way we talk to our kids goes beyond just words?
The tone we use, the pauses we make, and the inflection in our voice all weave together to create a nuanced backdrop for the messages we convey. Striking a balance between what feels natural and what’s effective is key to being a good parent. By being mindful of our tone, we can create a positive environment for our children and strengthen our connection with them.
Join us in this episode as we explore the world of communication through voice inflection, pausing, and tone. How can parents fine-tune their tone for better communication with their kids? We’ll unravel the natural and the not-so-natural, offering insights into how voice modulation impacts young minds. Plus, learn about children’s reactions to different tones and why nurturing a positive auditory environment is crucial.
Topics Discussed:
- Decoding the language of tone
- Parental tone adjustment toolkit
- The ripple effect on children
- Creating a harmonious auditory environment
