Seonaid Lyons started the topic Independant Play in the forum General forum for peaceful parenting related questions and discussions 4 years, 3 months ago
I have been working at finding my way back to my own centre and establishing boundaries, and noticing my needs and making little spaces for them when possible within the family juggle.
School holidays have been mostly getting some connecting and home time. The kids have mostly been playing really well with adult connection top-ups as needed.…[Read more]

Seonaid Lyons started the topic Fairness – Family Culture in the forum General forum for peaceful parenting related questions and discussions 4 years, 4 months ago
I am wondering about navigating fairness in the household in terms of family culture.
I noticed that Archer would always want things that Freya gets. If he sees we have had sushi for lunch when he was at school, he would complain and say how come I don’t get some, and often it would be an opportunity to offload big feelings. I would empathise…[Read more]

Seonaid Lyons started the topic Starting Kindy? in the forum General forum for peaceful parenting related questions and discussions 4 years, 7 months ago
Do 3-year-olds really need to gain confidence and social skills at 3? Is Kindy really necessary? Or has it just become the support for families for lack of family and community?

Seonaid Lyons started the topic School Ready in the forum General forum for peaceful parenting related questions and discussions 5 years, 2 months ago
I am wondering if there is a way to really sense if a child is school ready or not.
I believe my boy would love the stimulation, but struggle with the relationship/stimulation side of things. He is a lovely kid and gets on well with others, but seems to struggle with other kids if they are too assertive as he is a soft wee thing.
We are…[Read more]

Thanks Genevieve. Yes interestingly that was the article I was first drawn to and read when scrolling through the article links, and is something we have found ourselves instinctively doing when our 12 month old Hugo is wakeful and needing sleep, which has been a common thread for him from birth. He was alert and engaged from very early on and…[Read more]

Hi Genevieve.
We have a very spirited and strong willed 12 month old who is recently struggling with not having his desires met immediately. He can get very upset or frustrated and express that strongly if he is unable to do what he wants to, to have an object he wants, often something out of reach and sometimes unsafe, to have a particular food…[Read more]
