CALM AND CONNECTED - EPISODE 154
Building a strong connection with our children is really important and taking the time to invest in our relationships with them at each stage of childhood and into the teenage years. Today Janine considers the opportunities we create for them to share what they like and what you enjoy also in day to day life. How can we connect with our kids well so that when they face challenges or difficulties they feel like they can come speak with you, the parent?
In this episode we discuss strategies for connecting well, including:
Word Games you can play together like ‘Would You Rather?’
Playing board games together
Playing video games together
Cooking and baking together
Arts and crafts
An activity jar
Geocaching
Connecting through reading the same books your child reads/shows they watch
Asking for youtube creator recommendations
Sharing music together
Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Google Play | Stitcher | YouTube
And remember, do not forget about yourself, take a few minutes for you and have a little fun!
