20.01.2022 NO HUGS: Respect your child's decision if they don't want to hug an adult/friend/family member. Teaching them that they have autonomy over their body may protect them in the future if someone is trying to force them to do something they don't want to do. Saying no is ok - you can offer an alternative 'if you don't feel like giving nana a hug why don't you wave goodbye instead?'



19.01.2022 HOW TO TALK ABOUT THE NEWS: In light of the awful events happening right now here is some helpful advice on how to talk to children about the news and world events.

07.01.2022 WAIT: It often takes our children time to respond to us. Don't assume they're being 'disobedient' because they haven't responded immediately. Wait 12-15 seconds for their little brains to process what you've asked of them.

05.01.2022 ACKNOWLEDGE: Acknowledging your child's emotion and where they're coming from can stop a tantrum in its tracks! I read this today and it's a great example of how acknowledging feelings can be so helpful. Acknowledging doesn't mean giving in... It means setting your boundaries as a parent but acknowledging that there may be sad feelings for your child too. 'So this morning my three year old had a little melt down at breakfast. I shared my eggs with my 1 year old because he had... finished all his eggs. My three year old started whining "I want some of your eggs mama." And I told him he could have some of mine when he finished his own. He then said "I'm not going to eat anything and threw himself on the floor, crying." I looked at him and said "you're upset because I wouldn't give you my eggs and you think I'm treating you differently than your brother." No joke....He instantly looked up at me and nodded his head in agreement, walked back to the table and started eating his breakfast again. I could have just given him my eggs to avoid the meltdown but then I would have missed an incredible moment with my son. At the table we talked about how I loved them both the same no matter what and he soaked it all in.'
