It’s that time of year when many of us, children especially, are overwhelmed with the excitement of the season and too much stuff. There are times when we have little control over generous family members and family traditions, so the key to a happy holiday season with young children, is to build in some down time and to manage expectations.
When my coteacher and I have parent conferences, she always ends by asking parents, "What's your favorite thing about your child at this age?" It's a great question. Sometimes we are so bogged down with day to day parenting issues and worries, we don't take time to reflect on what we love about being a parent.
Games make great gifts for the whole family. I wish everyone a happy holiday season with plenty of time for family, games, and puzzles. These are a wonderful way to build joyful memories. Here are a couple fun board games for preschoolers.
Oh the Holidays! It really is a wonderful time of year, made even brighter if you have young children in the house. The keys to a joyful holiday are to enjoy the little moments and be as careful as you can be about over stimulation. It’s those little moments, playing a game with family, laughing at family stories, and enjoying a special yummy treat, which your child will remember.
