Merry Christmas from our family to yours 💚🎄

Motherhood ❤️ Can’t wait to see how these photos from come out 🥰

Our hearts (and hands!) are full 💙 Welcome to the world, Zeke & Zayn 🥰 Our beautiful twin boys made an early entrance and spent just over 3 weeks in the NICU but we’re finally home and completely in love 🤍

Children don’t need to be readers yet to enjoy chapter books. You can start from any age! 💁🏽‍♀️

They are a great way to get children excited about reading from an early age 🤩

You can read to them at first and each day they can look forward to hearing the next part of the story. In time (when they have developed their reading) they can take over or share the reading with you 📖

Enjoying reading is a great motivation for children to want to practice the skill ✅

It also makes for some nice quality time spent where they are developing their reading ability without it feeling like a chore 🙏🏽

Did you know even listening to stories helps develop children’s reading?! 🤯

What are your children’s favourite chapter books? Let me know 💛⬇️

Want to work with me or get my home learning phonics plan? Send me a DM 🤩

“But what if it’s a family member?” I hear some people say. Yes even then children should be given the choice 💯

Children just like adults should be allowed to say no when it comes to their own bodies. It keeps them safe to have control of this boundary and giving them the choice shows them respect 🙏🏽

I’m back in the UK at the moment for my sister’s wedding and so I’ve been able to model this a few times. I’m seeing friends and family’s children that I haven’t seen in a while and I always make sure I ask before assuming a child wants to hug me 🤗

Often they say yes but if they say no I don’t take offence. I sometimes offer a high five as an alternative (again optional) 🙌🏽

There are many reasons a child may not want to hug a trusted family member such as current mood, feeling overwhelmed, uncertainty or wanting to feel in control. We should be encouraging children to listen to their own wants and needs. Not forcing them to ignore their feelings ❌

This is respectful and will build and develop relationships. Not only with your child and others but also with themselves 💛

I would love to hear your thoughts whether you agree or not? ⬇️

Try some of these positive discipline techniques to prevent interruptions and handle them in the moment. Remember to communicate what you will do in these situations with your child in advance 🤗

Telling children what to do often creates resistance😤 Instead try asking them a question that will help them to make good choices themselves 💡

This helps children to feel like they have ownership of what they do and saves a lot of frustration on both sides 🤗

What are your thoughts about this subtle difference? ⬇️

This is just one of the tools that I share in the ‘Positive Discipline Course’. The next class starts in just a few weeks. Click the link in my bio to sign up now 💛

Number recognition and formation 🔢

Help your child recognise numbers and form them correctly by making the number in different ways. They can use household objects, toys, pencils, chalk, cutlery 🍴

Making the number in different ways will help your child to remember it 🧠

Stick with one or two numbers at a time and then move on when they are ready ✅
