About the Guest:
Carol Stock Kranowitz, M.A., is a pioneer in sensory integration education and author of the bestselling The Out-of-Sync Child. Her newest book, Good Times with Out-of-Sync Grandkids (coming March 2025), continues her mission to help families make sense of sensory challenges through play.

3 Key Takeaways:

• Behavior is communication — learn to spot what your child avoids, seeks, and finds calming.
  
  
• “Just right” challenges build skills and self-esteem (think pushing a laundry basket, not scrolling a tablet).
  
  
• Everyday items like rope, paint, and pebbles can become powerful sensory tools.
