Programme to becoming a calm and confident parent. This book aims

Teach your child the real secrets to success in life. There is so
much your child will learn at school. But there are other, vital
things that are all too frequently absent from a busy school's
syllabus, yet which are increasingly recognised as just asessential
to your child's future. These secrets of success include qualities
such as curiosity, independent thinking, perseverance,
determination, individuality and a willingness to weigh up risks
and solve problems. In The Bright Stuff, leading child education
expert C J Simister takes one secret of success at a time and
offers a treasure trove of imaginative, playful and above all fun
activities, games and exercises that you can use to preserve,
nurture and enhance your child's extraordinary potential, making
sure it does not remain untapped. All are designed to fit in with
everyday family life, involving little or no preparation. Appealing
to a wide range of ages, they are ideal for keeping children amused
in spare moments - over a meal, in the car, even when stuck in the
queue at the supermarket. And while they are enjoying themselves,
your children will be developing crucial qualities such as
initiative, alertness and an investigative spirit. They will also
be learning to form innovative ideas, to discern sense from
nonsense and to use failure as a useful springboard for progress.
With this ground-breaking book, you can make sure your children
have the skills they need to thrive in the real world, while
helping them to become happy, successful and well-rounded
individuals.
A Resources for Infant Educarers (RIE) teacher and student of
pioneering child specialist Magda Gerber, Janet Lansbury helps parents
look at the world through the eyes of their infants and relate to them
as whole people who have natural abilities to learn without being
taught. Once we are able to view our children in this light, even the
most common daily parenting experiences become stimulating
opportunities to learn, discover, and connect with our child.
A collection of the most-read articles from Janet's popular and
long-running blog, Elevating Child Care focuses on common infant
issues, including:
- Nourishing our babies' healthy eating habits
- Calming your clingy, fearful child
- How to build your child's focus and attention span
- Developing routines that promote restful sleep
Eschewing the quick-fix tips and tricks of popular parenting culture,
Lansbury's gentle, insightful guidance lays the foundation for a
closer, more fulfilling parent-child relationship, and children who
grow up to be authentic, confident, successful adults.
