Does your child groan at the thought of writing? Do you struggle to help them put their thoughts onto paper without frustration? In this episode of Raising Kind Humans, I sit down with Julie Bogart, author of Help! My Kids Hate Writing, to explore how parents can become their child’s writing coach rather than their referee.
Julie shares practical strategies for nurturing a love of writing, encouraging self-expression, and creating a supportive environment where kids feel confident putting their ideas into words. We discuss:
📝 Why so many kids resist writing—and how to shift their mindset
🎭 The power of playful, low-pressure writing exercises
💡 Ways to help kids find their unique writing voice
📚 How reading, storytelling, and conversation fuel strong writing skills
🤝 The role of parents as cheerleaders and guides—not grammar police
If you've ever felt stuck when trying to help your child with writing, this episode is packed with insights and encouragement to make the process more joyful for both of you!
