This time of year can be very difficult if your family has experienced a recent (or not so recent!) loss. Grief can be a difficult thing to deal explain to kids. It’s okay to take breaks if you need them!

The holidays can be a wonderful time spent with loved ones! But they can also be a time where the normal routines your kids follow are thrown into chaos. Here are a few tips for building structure and keeping routines in place even over the holidays.

Never forget: you know your child best! The holidays can bring out some seriously unwanted advice from family members and friends. Critiques and opinions on your parenting style can be harsh during an already stressful time. Stay calm and collected, but firm in responding. You’re the one raising your child, not these others with strong opinions! You can stand your ground, but remain polite and civil. That way, everyone can just focus on the holidays and spending time together.

Happy Holidays from all of us at The Baker Center! We wish you a safe and joyful season.

The season of giving is the perfect time to inspire kindness and altruism in your kids! Before Christmas, try going through some of your kid’s old toys and let them pick out a few to donate. This is a great opportunity to teach lessons about sharing and giving to those in need and comes with the bonus perk of clearing out some clutter before new toys arrive on Christmas Day 🎁

Do you have an older kiddo asking you tough questions after all the tragedies this week? You don’t have to have the answers, none of us really do, but it’s important to hold space for these conversations with our children.

Parents, during this difficult week, try to find moments to care for yourself. Get fresh air, see people who bring you joy, and try not to doom-scroll.

It’s been a heavy news week. If you’re feeling it in your mood and parenting, you’re not alone. Remember that it’s healthy to limit your news consumption, especially around your little ones.
