How to Instill a Love of Reading in Your Kids + "Raising Strong-Willed Kids" Q&A with Emily Learing
Hey there,
Summer’s almost here—which means more sunshine, more free time... and probably more screen time, too.
I remember when my daughter was younger. Looking back, it feels like such a different time, a time when screens weren't such a big part of our lives. She and I used to go to the library so often and come home with a towering stack of books. Half the fun was just picking them out!
This week’s article by Michèle Gamzo brought me right back to those old days. With warmth, humor, and 10 super practical tips, she shows us how to gently shift our kids away from screens and reignite a love of books—without battles, bribes, or big time commitments.
"Raising Strong-Willed Kids" Mini-Workshop + Q&A with Emily Learing
We are hosting a mini-workshop on "Raising Strong-Willed Kids" with Emily Learing this Thursday (May 8th) at 1pm ET / 12pm CT / 10am PT.
In this focused mini-workshop, Emily will walk us step-by-step through the "Narrator Technique" that she uses very effectively with the strong-willed kids in her practice, and answer all your questions and help you role play so you too can use it effectively with your own strong-willed kiddos at home!
Emily is a mom, children’s counselor and play therapist in private practice in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. In a world filled with seemingly constant criticism of moms, Emily tries to be a voice of support and respect for moms who feel blamed for their child's behaviors. Emily blogs at DisciplinedChildren.Com where she helps moms of strong-willed children to release the blame they place on themselves and offers tips to help them survive the challenging role of raising a strong-willed child.
Bring to this call any questions/concerns/worries you have about raising strong-willed kiddos, and Emily will help you get unstuck.
Alright, that's it for today. Until next time, go be the best parent, and the best person you can be!
Talk soon, Sumitha
