Cindy Utzinger Why is My Kid Doing That?

Does your child exhibit any of the following behaviors?

  • Trouble focusing or sitting still
  • Gets frustrated easily
  • Acts impulsively
  • Touches everything
  • Meltdowns
  • Poor self-awareness or self-regulation
  • Trouble with motor skills - handwriting, catching a ball, tying their shoes
  • Mealtime struggles
  • Trouble making friends
  • Seems fearful or has no fear
  • Struggles with transitions

My mission is for everyone to realize ...

.... kids need to learn to move and move to learn.

It’s time for plastic surgery!

The great news is, there’s hope and you can help! Our brains have something called neuroplasticity meaning our brains can grow and change based on life experiences.

I want to help you become your child’s plastic surgeon whether they have a diagnosis or just some quirky behaviors. I want to give you a bag of tricks to help in the heat of the moment along with tools to use to help build your child’s foundation by promoting a sensory lifestyle.  I want to help you to become an expert in knowing what they need and when.  And the best part about it? The tricks and tools are cheap and easy!

The brain must take in sensory information from the world around us, sort through and organize it, and then act on it appropriately. When there is a kink in this system, we may see behaviors that make us ask ourselves “Why?”
