What’s new!

Keep a look out on my page for help and tips all about understanding your child and their behaviour. I will be sharing advice and techniques from the book “My Hidden Chimp.”

Sometimes it is hard to understand how/why our children act the way they do. Keep a look out to find out more.

This is so true! 🎈🎈

A teacher gave a balloon to every student, who had to inflate it, write their name on it and throw it in the hallway. The teacher then mixed all the balloons. The students were then given 5 minutes to find their own balloon. Despite a hectic search, no one found their balloon.

At that point, the teacher told the students to take the first balloon that they found and hand it to the person whose name was written on it. Within 5 minutes, everyone had their own balloon.

The teacher said to the students: "These balloons are like happiness. We will never find it if everyone is looking for their own. But if we care about other people's happiness, we'll find ours too."

May your day be filled with happiness. ❤️

Making sure your child is successful means more than just supporting them educationally. All children need to be nurtured and loved to succeed.

Research shows that when you nurture your child, your child is more likely to be healthy, successful in school, able to get along with other children, and better able to handle stress. As important as it is, nurturing isn't always easy.

Healthy early development, supported by nurturing care and good relationships, makes it more likely that children will have happy, healthy futures and achieve their potential. Getting things right in the first 1001 days is vital, not just for individuals but for society as a whole.

✖️ TIMES TABLES ✖️

Let’s talk times tables - Memorising times tables makes it far quicker and easier for children to work out maths problems in their heads. Moving beyond using their fingers to work out answers, they'll be able to use their knowledge to quickly solve any multiplication questions!

Quick fire questions during the day will help and engage children beyond the classroom.

It has astonishing benefits for children: comfort and reassurance, confidence and security, relaxation, happiness and fun. Giving a child time and full attention when reading them a story tells them they matter. It builds self-esteem, vocabulary, feeds imagination and even improves their sleeping patterns.
