I heard someone say: “parents are the biggest obstacles in their childrens’ lives”. I have to say, I was a bit taken aback at this statement, but after thinking about it, I realised that this is very true. Don’t we all, in our daily routine, say to our children: “don’t climb on that, it’s too high, you will fall, don’t run, you might fall!” We need to get BACK TO THE BASICS! On page 7 - Let them play, children are free spirits. The book you need to read; Page 14 – A practical, sensible guide to raising happy, well-adjusted and independent children. Research indicates that children learn best in an environment which allows them to explore, discover, and play. Play is an important part of a developmentally appropriate childcare program. Play is also closely tied to the development of cognitive, socio-emotional, and physical behaviours. Enjoy your children.
Until next time, God bless,
Jeanne

“Whatever they grow up to be, they are still our children, and the one most
important of all the things we can give to them is unconditional love.
Not a love that depends on anything at all except that they are our children.”

A must read for any parentParents and caregivers who struggle to cope with the demands of modern day living and need practical, sensible advice to raise happy, well-adjusted and independent children will find this title invaluable.
The manual that never came with your child covers: an appropriate environment for the child to do his or her homework; the setting up of routines; how to organize weekly and monthly planners; study methods; an effective homework diary; games and activities to improve visual and auditory perceptual skills, as well as fine and
gross motor skills; food that will optimize brain power; discipline.
Written in laymen’s terms, the text is accompanied by full-color cartoons throughout, which lightens the approach to issues that are often regarded as nightmares by despairing parents. Regular Handy Hints boxes summaries the preceding concepts in a nutshell.
