It’s been a year since the pandemic started and our lives have changed. I think we’ve started to be more grateful for all the things we used to have that aren’t, the little freedoms like the joy of having a coffee on a terrace, going out downtown without a mask, or staying with friends later than 10pm. I at least appreciate it more. And being healthy with family. What are you thankful for?
I work with an after-school where I work a lot with children on emotions, some of them cry very easily and get very angry and others start their puberty early, around the age of 9 and feel the need to talk about what’s going on with their bodies and learn information. So for them and you I decided to organise these online meetings. I enjoy being close to the kids and helping them.
Many parents ask me if what they are doing is good or good enough for their children. And you wonder? I want to assure you that the moment you wonder and ask, you are a good parent, doing the best you can. In fact all parents do the best they can. Be sure of that and give yourself a little trust and understanding and congratulate yourself with a break from whatever you like.
We are proposing two series of online activities for next week for 7-9 and 8-10 year olds.
