Time With Your Kids

Your Child(ren) may spend a lot of time in Child Care, yet you(their parents) are still the most influential on their development. Parent involvement is fundamental for children's mental health and well-being. Even the most ordinary events can turn into opportunities for bonding, communicating, and learning!

Some opportunities for bonding, communicating and learning can be as easy as :

-Instead of turning on the TV to entertain them while you get supper ready, have them make supper with you

-Have them help you clear the table and do the dishes

-Do homework and chores together, discuss what you are doing and communicate about the day.

-Have supper together at the table instead of infront of the TV

-Don't just send them to their space to play, go and play with them

-Read with them before bed, this will give you great bonding time, as well as instill a love for reading in your children, and can also help with the bed time routine.
