Sharing a snapshot of our Signature Positive Paren Sharing a snapshot of our Signature Positive Parenting Academy curriculum.

Weโ€™ve made this academy as accessible as possible to as many parents and educators by:

1. Making it fully online with pre-recorded videos so you can watch the academy videos anytime anywhere at your own pace.

2. Providing very detailed and comprehensive handbook and workbook for you, as well as a set of tool cards that summarize the key concepts and strategies which you will learn throughout the academy.

3. Creating affordability behind the pricing. Most positive parenting workshops are priced at $200 or so for content that is only 10-20% of what we cover in our academy.

4. Providing flexibility so you can cancel anytime you want without any penalties or fees, if you feel that this academy is not for you.

This is a scenario. You might not be the parent i This is a scenario.

You might not be the parent in this scenario on some days, or you might be the parent in this scenario on other days.

But this does not make us a bad parent.

We just need to be intentional in being more consistent when we parent so our little ones donโ€™t get confused by these mixed signals.

Now what if there are some tasks theyโ€™re capable of doing and some tasks they are not? How should we respond to them then?

We have faith in their capabilities, we find solutions or modifications for them to carry out the task, or if it really canโ€™t be done by them we explain why.

Here are some examples:

Milk โžก๏ธ we ensure the glass has a handle for them to hold on firmly, and we have faith that they can do it without spilling (maybe it takes practice too!)

Shoes โžก๏ธ we allow the child more time to prep for school so we donโ€™t end up rushing them through these tasks. Then, let them learn to wear their shoes themselves no matter how long it might take.

Painting โžก๏ธ itโ€™s true they will create a mess. You can choose to tell them โ€œoh let me put a mat here and you can paint on itโ€, that way you contain the mess.

Many parents mistakenly think that independent pla Many parents mistakenly think that independent play is all about buying the right toys, and buying more toys.

Yes, buying the right toys is one of the factors contributing to independent play. But it is not the only factor and definitely not the most important factor!

And spoiler alert: you do not always need to buy more toys to encourage independent play.

The most important factor to consider for encouraging independent play is:

ENVIRONMENT

You have to ensure you set up the environment in a way that empowers your child to carry out independent play.

What does that mean? Refer to the reel for tips!

Itโ€™s a common question I get from parents. โ€œW Itโ€™s a common question I get from parents.

โ€œWe have so many toys at home. But my child doesnโ€™t play with them.โ€

Some basic questions to ask first:

1) Are the toys age-appropriate?

2) Are the toys easily accessible to the child, i.e. the child can reach for them easily without help?

If the answers to the above questions are YES, then you should start to look at how youโ€™re displaying the toys.

Yes, how you display the toys will affect how often the child reaches for them.

Simply put, display the toys in a way that shows the child โ€œLook here, thereโ€™s something to be done here!โ€

Try this simple change, and you will notice a difference!
