Earlier this week I rewrote the Elf on the Shelf to remind you that Christmas season is a time of joy- not threats of losing your gifts or getting coal in your stocking.

So why stop there? How about Santa? In the spirit of focusing on what your child needs, meeting them where they are at, and making the holiday season a time of joy and love, I present to you, Santa Claus is Coming to Town by Leanne Page of Parenting with ABA.

No need to watch out
It’s okay to cry
Let’s figure out why you pout
I’m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town

He’s making a list,
He’s checking it twice,
He’s gonna bring gifts to all that are nice
Santa Claus is coming to town

Sweet dreams when you are sleeping
Kind words when you’re awake
He knows that you love Christmas time
So have fun for goodness sake

No need to watch out
It’s okay to cry
Let’s figure out why you pout
I’m telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town

If you’re counting on Santa to keep your kids in line this season, I strongly encourage you to try some positive tools instead to figure out what your kids need and teach them to communicate their wants and needs in more appropriate ways.

If you’re counting on Santa to get your kids to behave, I implore you to learn some quick behavior tools and focus on building up your kids instead.

If you’re counting on Santa to save your sanity this month, I beg you to try something else. Not sure where to start? Just message me. I’m ready to help!
