25.01.2022 #tiptuesday Competition can be good for children. When children compete against each other, they are motivated to do their best to win the game. However, competition can also be a double-edged sword. Some competitors may be overly competitive, and some may find the competition intimidating. Competition works best when everyone understands and agrees to follow clear and fair rules before the game starts. Here are some benefits of healthy competition for kids:... - Children feel good about their achievements, improves their self-esteem - Prepares kids for future real-life situations - Develops important life skills, like empathy, tenacity and self-efficacy - Helps kids understand the value of working hard, that it is not only the brightest kids who always win, but also those who work the hardest and persist through the obstacles (promotes a growth-mindset) - Teaches teamwork skills - Expands comfort zone - Learns to win and lose gracefully - Helps learn from failure #bigschoolkids #healthycompetition

24.01.2022 Teaching your kids to read the time? If so, we have two amazing games from Orchard Toys to teach kids on to read the time. 'Tell the Time' is a lotto game where you try to make a match on your playing board.... 'What's the time, Mr. Wolf' is a board game where you race your character around the board, match the time to the central clock and avoid the hungry wolf.

24.01.2022 #tipuesday As parents, naturally we all want our kids to be successful. It pains us to see our kids fail, feel afraid and disappointed. However, failure is beneficial. Failure is actually a pre-requisite to success! It is only through trial and error that our kids can grow up to become resilient adults. ... We need to teach our kids to not fear making mistakes. Reframe failure. Tell them that failing is an opportunity for learning in disguise. Failure helps develop their growth mindset - that they can become successful if they keep on trying rather than giving up. Turn the negative connotation associated with the word "FAIL" into something positive: First Attempt In Learning #growthmindset #failureispartofsuccess

23.01.2022 Swinging into the weekend... Happy Friday everyone! #happyfriday #weekend #beenalongweek

23.01.2022 #tiptuesday When asked the question of what parents want the most for their kids, usually the most common reply is happiness. Giving your kids a happy and healthy childhood sets them up for success in life. So how do we go about raising happy kids? Here are some tips:... 1) Become a happy person yourself: research has found that unhappy people are less effective parents, and happy parents are more likely to have happy kids 2) Talk and listen to your kids: giving your kids undivided attention when they are talking to you helps them to feel validated and that you are showing an interest in their lives 3) Effort is better than perfection: research shows that parents who over-emphasize achievement are more likely to have kids with high levels of depression and anxiety. Praise them for their effort rather than natural ability 4) Teach your children to think positively: optimistic children tend to be happier children as shown by research, as both are closely linked 5) Allow for failure: failure allows your child to learn from their mistakes and helps improve your child's ability to succeed in the future. Provide a safe, loving and supporting environment without too much pressure so your child won't feel afraid of failure and disappointment 6) More playtime: kids feel happy when they play, and which kid wouldn't like to play more? #happykids #raisinghappykids

18.01.2022 #tiptuesday It is important to nurture childrens' communication skills so they are able to express themselves clearly and confidently in all aspects of their life. Children who are good at communicating verbally will find it easier to produce written communications and interpret what they read more accurately, helping them perform better at school.... Communication skills are essential for developing and maintaining friendships and to building a strong social support network. Here are some tips to help improve your child's communication skills: - Talk regularly with your child, ask lots of open-ended questions - Focus on your child's conversation with you by turning off electronics (tv, phone, etc) - Help your child to understand what different facial expressions and body language mean - Allow your child to finish their sentence rather than interrupting and finishing it off for them - Be a good role model. Your child learns how to communicate by watching you #communicationskills

09.01.2022 Happy Friday! Leaving you with this inspirational quote for the upcoming weekend, by Miss 8's current favourite poet, Shel Silverstein. My kids have often been taught that nothing is impossible in this world, to try their best.. funnily, it's actually backfired a little. With their active imaginations running wild, they have been telling me crazy and bizarre situations where one day, they believe would be possible! One recent scenario brought up was one day humans could be bo...rn from turtle eggs! (Random, I know). I said that was crazy and not possible. The reply was "nothing is impossible!" Have a great weekend everyone! #inspirationalquotes #shelsilverstein #anythingispossible #nothingisimpossible #kidssaythedarnestthings
