The Best tips to ease your parenting struggles.
I thought about the way my grandmother treasured the memories of her days as a mother to young children and I didn’t want to get to her age and regret these years. I began my journey out of survival mode when I wrote 100 Ways to be Kind to Your Child, and it helped me remember the simple things that matter most.

“I recently was an early childhood teacher in a very large public school system. I dedicated 12 years of my life to teaching other people’s children from preschool to first grade. I strived to create an environment where each and every child felt nurtured, independent and responsible for their own learning. I would like to think my classroom and teaching consisted of hands-on centers, guided reading, inquiry-based projects and out-of-the-box thinking. As a public school teacher, I always sought to provide an environment that was nurturing, engaging, and inspiring to children.” lemonlimeadventures.com/10-resources-to-hlep-kids-handle-negative-emotions/
