As little as they are, young children carry heavy feelings that overload their systems and cause things like tantrums. As parents of kids this age, one of the best opportunities you can offer is off-ramps – safe places for them to slow down and come to a safe stop.
In the month of April, families were given kits with a NATURE theme, including a daily event calendar, nature curriculum with activity instructions and supplies, printed puzzles and storyboard characters, a bag of snacks, and a book.
Sensory activities engage multiple senses at once – hearing, sight, smell, taste, and touch! For young children, sensory exploration can help engage their focus and help them grow.
Our team has put together family activity kits with a month’s supply of NATURE activities! We hope this will make it easier for you to have a single place to go for fun, creative, ideas to do with your child.
A recent book I read, Tiny Habits by BJ Fogg, offered up another helpful strategy to reduce stress — create tiny habits. Fogg’s research of habit-setting has shown that successes in starting tiny habits can lead to lasting, long-term change.
