Publisher's Synopsis
Sometimes we can be so busy that there barely seems the time to sit down, let alone communicate all our feelings and wishes verbally with each other. Children can feel we are at times too busy to listen to them and keep totally plugged in and thus incorrectly believe with their young minds that we don't care as much as we do. When really, we do care so deeply just pushed constantly from pillar to post with deadlines and heavy work schedules. As loving caregivers, we like to believe that we have done our best to ensure we have taught them everything they need for the real world. It can be a challenging and daunting balancing act. We can have our doubts such as have we done our parenting well. Are our children deficient in anything; we ensure that have their vitamins and if not, we supplement their diet, we ensure they have their sunscreen so on; at least that is what most of us try to do. But despite it all we are not superhuman and can't do it all perfectly all of the time. Sometimes we need a little help. Our children's emotional needs also need to be supplemented at times, we live such hectic lives rushing to work, after school activities, homework and bath and bedtime. However, here in this CHILDREN'S COMMUNICATION/LEARNING JOURNAL we can help give you the helping hand you need along with daily verbal communication. Using all our sensory skills are important for adequate communication. We all learn differently some of us; through auditory senses and others through visual senses, being able to write what our feelings and needs are is also therapeutic and allows better thinking skills. Sometimes we can be guilty of speaking without really thinking; writing gives us a chance to reflect first and plan what we are trying to relay to the other person. It enables our child/children to communicate their needs and wants in a free non-threatening manner. A plan is what is needed. In CHILDREN'S COMMUNICATION/LEARNING JOURNAL there are prompters to encourage free flowing communication between child and parent/s or caregivers. It is an opportunity for personal and private communication along with learning tools to help supplement. CHILDREN'S COMMUNICATION/LEARNING JOURNAL is also full of thought provoking information, calming relaxation skills to teach children how to self soothe and relax when they feel stressed, along with goal planners; and more to help teach your child to be all they can be in this fast-paced world that waits for no one.Knowing they are equipped in this world is a great insurance and peace of mind for all loving caregivers. The "CHILDREN'S COMMUNICATION/LEARNING JOURNAL "can be left in a prominent yet private spot to be used daily. It also comes in bright colours with attractive pictures appealing to children. You might want one for each of your children or just for the child you feel may need a little extra help. CHILDREN'S COMMUNICATION/LEARNING JOURNAL is also great way to keep your fingers on the pulse, a fun sharing quality time activity to also see the milestones in your child/children's lives and a wonderful keepsake to pour over in later years.
