WORKING FROM DAY 1!

Time-Outs DO NOT enhance moral behavior or teach children conflict-resolution skills (Hoffman).

Use Time-Ins to Transform Challenging Behaviors

While time-outs are punitive experiences that isolate a child, Time-Ins acknowledge an unmet need, helping the child calm their body and mind through co-regulation.

Time-Ins help children learn to calm their bodies and process their emotions so that they can problem-solve, learn, and grow.

Teach Kids Social & Emotional Skills Like You Do Their ABC's!

Children as young as 2 or 3 can learn social and emotional skills the same way they learn to read and write... through the four mood groups, positive reinforcement and modeling!

But most adults need guidance and tangible tools to teach these skills.

GENM tools help parents bring the science of positive discipline playfully into daily life!

  ✓ Increase self-awareness and resilience

  ✓ Prevents tantrums before they begin

  ✓ Tangible tools for simple, daily routines

Every ToolKit comes with our comprehensive Digital Time-In Manual, teaching you not only HOW to use Time-Ins and positive discipline, but the science of WHY IT WORKS!

Tame Tantrums & Teach Kids Emotional Regulation with The Time-In ToolKit!

Tangible tools you can start using day one to:

Tame tantrums through co-regulation

Grow your child's empathy

Build social & emotional intelligence

Empower kids to "Name It, Feel It, Heal It"

The Time-In Toolkit creates a safe space (or Calming Corner) for children and their caregivers to play, learn, and grow their social-emotional skills with playful, evidence-based games and activites.

WHat's a time-in?

Time-Ins are dedicated times to process and regulate unpleasant feelings and big emotions.

While time-outs are punitive experiences that isolate a child from an environment for a set amount of time as a punishment for their behaviors, Time-Ins are an acknowledgment of an unmet need, helping the child calm their body and mind through co-regulation.

Though punishment-based discipline, like time-outs, may lead to short-term compliance, they do not enhance moral behavior or teach children useful conflict-resolution skills (Hoffman).

Alternatively, Time-Ins help children learn to calm their bodies and process their emotions so that they can problem-solve, learn, and grow. They empower children to check in with their bodies when they are feeling strong emotions so that they can practice responding to situations rather than reacting.

Connection is the Key to Co-Regulation.

The behaviors we are looking for from children are easier for them to do when they are feeling safe and connected to another human being. (We explain the brain science behind this in our Digital Time-In Manual!)

Connection builds compliance which is why our tools help adults and children "connect before they correct."

When you begin to use your Calming Corner on a regular basis, there will no longer be a need to put children in forced time-outs. Children (and adults!) having challenging behaviors and/or feelings will take a Time-In instead.
