We spend so much time preparing for the birth of our baby, but how much time do we spend thinking, planning and preparing for becoming a parent? According to Google, the average birth time is 6-12 hours, (mine was a lot longer, but still only a couple of days). We parent for a lifetime, with little or no preparation. Prepared parenting changes that. What's prepared parenting? - It's simple really, it's taking the time to think, plan and talk about how you want to parent BEFORE you have a baby (though it’s actually never too late to spend time thinking about and discussing your parenting). Having those simple conversations early, will make all the difference to your confidence as a parent later. When did you start talking about what your parenting might look like with your partner? ##preggo #pregnant #preggers #pregnacy #pregnancy #pregnancyannouncement #12weekspregnant #12weekstogo #12weekspostpartum #20weeksold #20weekscan #20weekstogo #20weekspregnant #20weekspregnant❤️ #20weeksultrasound #20weekspostpartum

Play is the most amazing teacher! It's how we all learn best. No matter what age we are. When toddlers of this age play, they tend to chatter and narrate what they are doing. It might just be babble, but that babble is the foundation of building language and a rich vocabulary for life. So PLEASE, can we lose the dummies? Let the children play without them so that we can let their language grow and develop as it should. Let's prevent issues rather than having to fix them.
Toddler activity - Rainbow ooblek and kitchen utensils. Mix together corn flour and water and a drop of food colouring in a biggish bowl that's easy for your little one to reach into. It will give your child a chance to explore how the ooblek changes as they play. Let them discover how it goes from solid to liquid, give them the words to use to describe it. Such a rich language, science, problem solving activity that also develops their inquiry and investigation! Did you have a little play too?! Do you want more simple ideas like this one?
