  • YAY! The kids are home for 6 WEEKS STRAIGHT for the summer school holidays! (For us in the southern hemisphere at least) 😩
    If you've heard "I’m bored!" 5000 times already, you're in the right place. But this is still very much relevant if you're not on vacation but maybe you're heading on a road trip, or just home with the kids but you need to get some work done!
    Today I'm talking about the challenge of managing kids’ boredom head-on. You’ll learn practical strategies to help your kids embrace downtime, spark creativity, and build independence, all while strengthening your connection as a family.
    I explore:Why boredom isn’t the enemy, it’s an opportunity.Fun and creative ideas to keep kids engaged without breaking the bank.How to involve kids in planning their days and encouraging independence.The importance of balancing activity with rest (aka emptiness) for both you and your kids.How emotional intelligence plays a role in tolerating and managing their whines and complaints (without losing your cool!).
    Plus, I share how you can dive even deeper into building your parenting toolkit with my online courses. This week, three of my most popular courses—From Reactive to Responsive Parenting, Decoding and Defusing Challenging Behaviour, and Supporting Anxious and Sensitive Kids—are on sale for 50–61% off!
