It’s no trick that Heather as well as I (and our husbands) are huge fans of Dr. Harvey Karp. His 5 S-technique of soothing a newborn infant seemed like brilliant tricks we never might have come up with on our own. We suggest enjoying his DVD, The Happiest infant on the block during the last two weeks of pregnancy as well as once again in the very first few weeks of the baby’s life.

Then, in toddlerhood, he provided us much more useful advice: talk like a caveman! While speaking like a caveman feels idiotic, having that technique in my back pocket assisted me out during some major young child tantrums. (Scarlett wants much more bath! however mom stated “No”! Scarlett is mad! Scarlett wants more! bath! right! now!) I still utilize a customized version of his technique with Scarlett, repeating back what she wants to ensure that she understands she’s being heard. For all the details, you gotta checked out the book.

On June 21 at 7.30 pm, numerous film theaters across the country are going to hold a parents night Out during which Harvey Karp will discuss his slick parenting moves to the audience.
