Playdates: Benefits for Child and Parent
Playdates are one of the most important parts of early childhood development. Not just for children, but for parents too!
Playdates and social gatherings for young children help them interact with peers their own age, teaching them valuable communication, cooperation, and social skills that cannot be taught in a classroom. Beyond that, it allows parents to connect with other parents.
Managing Stress in Relationships During Times of Transition
Stress is common in relationships. This is true whether that relationship is professional, friendly, romantic, or even familial. Relationships come with responsibilities and duties that sometimes conflict. When these conflicts of wants and needs arise, they can create stress that can impact our life. This is especially true with family relationships during times of transition.
