Spring is Here!

Spring is Here!

All around is GREEN! New life is bursting forth every day. The birds are busy building nests. Signs of Spring abound. Rainy days give the earth the drink plants and trees needs to refresh and grow and make muddy puddles that are so fun to splash in!

Out my kitchen window this morning, I can see a couple of robins hopping around on the ground. Every so often they stop and tilt their heads towards the ground. They remain still. Then quick as a flash they bob their heads down to the ground and come up with an insect or worm in their beak! I have been looking around my yard to see where they will build their nest this year. When you are outside today, pay attention to what the birds are up to.

Getting Started: A Daily Rhythm

Getting Started: A Daily Rhythm

RHYTHM - it is what guides us through the day and holds the children in a sense of security. When children know what to expect, they experience less stress and are able to be more present in the moment. In the absence of a routine, children may exhibit more challenging behaviours. You have probably noticed this at some point along your parenting journey (maybe very recently)!
