Halloween costumes are a great opportunity for children to get creative and express themselves — but the decision-making isn’t always the easiest. If your child has a hard time sticking to a costume choice, try these tips.
🎃 Don’t plan too far ahead
Leave plenty of time for a decision, but not so much time that they’re bound to change their mind.
🎃 Choose a decision day
Give yourself time to find or make your child’s costume and put a sticker on your calendar to mark when a costume decision will be finalized. Once that day has passed, you’re going with what you’ve got!
🎃 Be flexible and leave room for creativity
It’s fun to dress children up in what you want to see them in, but it’s also important to give them the independence to decide for themselves. Support their creativity, even when it’s a little wacky!
🎃 Use our decision guide
If your child is still struggling to choose, use the decision guide on our Pinterest to give them a hand.
And most importantly, have a fun, creative and safe spooky season! https://bit.ly/3UVKRk3

Need a new book suggestion? Just ask Og®! Right now, he’s reading “What Is Light?” by Markette Sheppard and learning how we all have a light within us. Pair your reading with these discussion questions to encourage a conversation with your child about the importance of respecting our own light, and everyone else’s.
🌟 What is something you have in common with your friends?
🌟 How are you different from your friends?
🌟 What’s something that makes someone you love different and special?
🌟 How can you encourage others to be themselves?
Learn more about author Markette Sheppard on our blog, where we interviewed her about representation in children’s books, and her own journey as a working mom. https://bit.ly/3AyCx02

Books are a great way to help children feel a sense of belongingness, so we’re sharing some of our favorite classroom reading.
Young children are still developing their sense of self, which is why it’s important for them to see people who look like them in books, images and toys. It’s also important to see a variety of other people so children can learn to appreciate those who are different. https://bit.ly/3Dx8zNo

Children are constantly watching and learning from what we do all day, even while we’re working. And sometimes they have very unique perspectives on what “working” means! What does your child think your job is? Comment below to share, and Happy Working Parents Day!
