New Video Examples of Effective Screening Strategies!
- Distract a child during probe insertion by stimulating other senses.
- Keep little hands busy during screening.

- Frame the screening process as fun activity
or game.
- Use the positive power of
a cooperative child to reassure a reluctant or fearful one.
- Employ novel toys to keep
a child's attention.
We'd like to share these, and a few
other tips and cautions, with you. We're keeping this newsletter short in hopes that you'll find time to watch these video examples on KidsHearing.org and that you'll find them to be worth more than 1000 words!
