09.01.2022 With the changes Covid-19 has brought to our lives, it's important that more than ever we support children's mental health and wellbeing .My children's book "Seeing Through Different Lenses" is one great way to do this. The book allows parents to help children "see" challenging situations in a better light through basic cognitive steps, portrayed through the main character "Jack".It's also a great conversation starter to see what's really going on in their minds and how these times are affecting them.If you would like a copy, all you have to do is message me. The book is for ages 8-12 years and is only $19.95 plus postage and handling .

07.01.2022 Never tell them to "stop crying"

07.01.2022 We believe that when our children don't do as they're told that they're just not disciplined enough. Not obedient enough. Not good enough. We forget that our ch...ildren, just like us, have emotions and desires and needs just like we do. The truth is, we can't discipline our children in any way we would not discipline ourselves.

05.01.2022 You may find that your parenting #instincts have been guiding you to do some certain things to #nurture your child’s growing #brain. Listen to that inner vo...ice! Here are some science-founded tips to keep on hand for when you need inspiration or the reminder to do just that. Children are burdened and blessed with brain activity that’s wildly alien to adult intelligence. A 5-year-old brain has 100 billion neurons with 77 percent located in the furiously-networking cerebral cortex the zone that constructs language, mathematics, memory, attention, and complex problem-solving. The neurons are constantly sprouting dendrites, long tendrils that slither out to receive data from up to 15,000 other cells, and axons that transmit information to other cells. Links between neurons or synapses build cognitive pathways that create every individual’s specialised brain architecture that allows them to comprehend, accumulate, and retain knowledge. Harvard’s Center for the Developing Child notes, early experiences in brain architecture make the early years of life [ages 0 to 6 years] a period of both great opportunity and great vulnerability for brain development. In other words, these are crucial years for building the foundation of brain architecture a time when, as a #parent, #caregiver or #teacher, you can have a significant impact on your child’s development. If you do some of these things every day already, give yourself a big pat on the back. Growing brains together can be fun and fulfilling for everyone. #TALK, SING AND READ Talk, sing, and read books frequently. Steady exposure to verbiage enables your child’s cerebral cortex to develop strong neural circuitry for swift acquisition of language. Be an active listener, asking open-ended questions that initiate thinking, such as, ‘If you could have any superpower in the world, what would it be?’ or, ‘What do you like most about going to the beach?’ Explain how things work, use natural wording, and include your young ones in some adult conversations. Talk about your feelings good and bad to help them develop an emotional vocabulary. BE THE #SAFEST PLACE Children need to feel safe and confident to learn. A 2007 Stanford University study indicates that traumatic stress and fear can release toxic levels of the hormone cortisol; this can destroy neurons in the hippocampus, a region that supports factual and episodic memory. Give your child positive, loving, and encouraging feedback. Minimise reprimands, avoid unnecessary power struggles, and don’t try to use fright in discipline. Express sympathy if your child is afraid of nightmares, or the dark, and be patient about bed-wetting, which can be common past age 7. ENCOURAGE #EXPLORING Young brains thrive on playing, inventing, experimenting, constructing, and tinkering with three-dimensional materials. Children’s brains grow in response to novelty and challenge because curiosity secretes dopamine, a chemical that stimulates the dendrite expansion that wires the brain. Exercise also builds brain cells in the dentate gyrus, elevating chemicals that create the brain’s infrastructure. All children need movement. If a child keeps fidgeting, it’s often a signal that they need to move more. #EAT A SMART DIET For optimal brain growth, avoid serving sugary, salty foods and those with food colourings and preservatives, which lower the ability to concentrate. Have easily accessible a variety of fruit, vegetables, whole grains and meat. Egg yolk, fatty meat, and soybeans contain choline, the building block for the neurotransmitter acetylocholine, which is crucial in memory function. Antioxidants, like those found in blueberries, are associated with increased memory and cognitive function. Oatmeal has also been shown to improve results on short-term memory and auditory attention tests. BRING #MUSIC TO LIFE Expose your children to music, and when they show an interest, let them play an instrument. Music is considered a window into higher brain function, and children who learn to sing and play music have demonstrated dramatic improvement in spatial reasoning. Study of music has also been shown to correlate with children’s advanced performance in mathematics. Sing songs together, and turn on some melodic, structured music for them to listen to while they work, play or relax for some effortless brain-building. #FOCUS ON FOCUSING Engage children in activities that require focus, like meditation and board games, to bolster their ability to concentrate. Teaching self-control and delayed gratification helps children academically: the correlation between self-control and academic marks is twice as high as that for IQ and marks. Limit screens when sensible, as too much exposure can overstimulate neurological systems causing shortened attention span and hyperactivity. However more importantly right now, you can boost a child’s patience by modeling the calm behaviour that comes with self care. DEVELOP #SENSATION Sensory experiences can have a huge impact on a child’s absorbent brain. Help them practice using all 8 of their senses within their own personal limits: touch; sight; taste; smell; sound; proprioception (which shows them where their body parts are via internal senses that come from joints, muscles and connective tissue); vestibular processing (which helps detect changes in gravity and whether they are sitting, standing, lying down, upside down, spinning, or still); and interoception (which senses their internal physiological condition, including hunger, thirst, need for the toilet, and heart rate). https://news.stanford.edu///march7/med-carrion-030707.html https://www.greatschools.org///four-brain-foods-kids-love/ https://www.greatschools.org//kindergartner-brain-develop/ https://www.growinghandsonkids.com/what-are-the-8-senses.ht https://www.newscientist.com//mg15320732-900-science-can-/ https://www.researchgate.net//232440875_Keeping_Mozart_in_ #neurochild #brainscience #learning #familygoals
