No Comments on Best Father’s Day gifts: 40 unique and surprising gift ideas

If you’re shopping for a Father’s Day gift for the paternal figure in your life, but don’t want to stick to anything traditional or safe, keep reading.

Peaceful Parenting Things I Mess Up (and things I’m good at too!)

The Parenting Junkie talks about peaceful parenting and her peaceful parenting fails. Do you ever feel like you are messing up at peaceful parenting? You should know you’re not alone. There are peaceful parenting things I mess up and peaceful parenting things I’m good at. We are all on a journey with peaceful parenting so take each peaceful parenting fail with grace and realize that your peaceful parenting mess up is only there to help guide you on your journey. Don’t worry if you feel you are failing at peaceful parenting or that you’re a peaceful parenting failure. Everyone is human, peaceful parenting should be a way to help guide you on a more positive journey with your child. The only way to be a true failure at peaceful parenting is to not try.

0:51 – I still haven’t tamed my temper
2:51 – I’m too controlling over their food
3:47 – I can be too controlling
Now for the Peaceful Parenting Things I’m Good At
4:16 – I avoid punishing (most of the time)
4:54 – I’m getting better at listening
5:04 – I’m getting better at helping them resolve conflicts
5:28 – I’m trying hard to model for my children
5:38 – …. But sometimes I suck at that too

Kitchen experiments with the kids – just the thing for half-term

No Comments on Kitchen experiments with the kids – just the thing for half-term

Edible slime, jelly worms, ‘unicorn noodles’: what better way to entertain children than by making a mess in the name of science?

The last time I did science in the home with an 11-year-old, something happened that I can’t tell you about until the person whose chair it was has died. That is my abiding conclusion about the natural sciences: they stain, and don’t let anybody ever tell you they won’t.

Nevertheless, I have just undertaken science in the kitchen – nudged by a new book, The Kitchen Science Cookbook by Michelle Dickinson – because I have exhausted all the other ways of getting them to join me there. “This dish reminds me of evenings spent making bechamel with my mother, her apron brushing against my cheek as we spake of fat and its magical alchemy,” said every cookbook ever, but my parenting is much more in the Johnny Ball style: “Kids, you can’t teach them anything, but they learn everything from you.” I’m still in phase one: they will not touch my wisdom with a bargepole. C, 11, will enter the kitchen for anything that ends in a cake, but then we just end up with a load of cake. H, nine, will promise me the moon on a stick, then get distracted by a bee. T, 11, thinks it is emasculating to crack an egg. It wasn’t for the science that I tried a new tack; it was just for the company. Plus it was half-term, and you have to keep them occupied somehow.
