Bonjour, we are back with another fun fact this Friday.

"By acknowledging our children’s emotions, we are helping them learn skills for soothing themselves, skills that will serve them well for a lifetime." – John Gottman, Ph.D.

Our kids want us to give them a safe space to process their hard feelings more than they want us to fix all their problems.
– Shelly Robinson

"When a child is upset, logic often won’t work until we have responded to the right brain’s emotional needs." – Dr. Dan Siegel

“Play is the work of the child.” – Maria Montessori

‘"When we focus on the problem, we lose sight of the child" – Landreth
