🔆Nature Play🔆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀

🔆Nature Play🔆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Look at this little treasure, wet, sandy, playing with natures treasures outdoors and happy as 😍🤗🤩⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓What is nature play?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Nature play is any activity that gets children active or thinking actively outside building life skills and an ability to play, eventually, without the need for parental control.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓Why is nature play important?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It is essential for cognitive development, nature play stimulates creativity, problem solving skills, language development, impulse control, logical reasoning and has been shown to increase concentration and other cognitive skills 🤩⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓ Nature play and ADHD⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A number of studies have shown that time spent in the outdoors has been shown to mitigate symptoms of ADHD and increase concentration. In fact, the greener their everyday experiences, the more manageable their symptoms.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓ The beauty of nature play⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As well as the cognitive and developmental benefits it's free, accessible, endless in opportunity and can provide hours of entertainment.

💥Giving in is not giving up💥⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If things haven't gone the way you hoped today, there's always tomorrow to try again.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sometimes your little ones don't nap like you'd hoped and so you finish the nap on the boob or in the carrier.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sometimes they wake super early and can't be resettled and so you bring them into bed with you.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sometimes they refuse the bath. It doesn't mean they'll never bath again.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sometimes it helps just to do what's needed in the moment and try again tomorrow. If you feel like you're 'giving in' just remember you don't have to 'give up'.

💕Teamwork makes the dream work💕⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Teamwork in parenting is SO important and the way parents interact with each other has such a big influence on the development of children.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Teamwork is about agreeing on an approach to parenting which might include things like when, how and what to discipline, bedtimes, nutrition, school choices, earning pocket money, household chores etc.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Children who see their parents working as a team are more likely to feel safe, secure and positive about themselves. Team work in parenting is also an opportunity for children to learn about respectful communication and building healthy relationships 🥰🥰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Taking time out with your partner away from the house, work, chores, children and the demands of family life is so important to re-connect which may lead to you feeling more supported in your team.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓What are some of the conversations you wish you had before becoming parents? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓What aspects of parenting do you agree or disagree most on?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❗ I honestly feel like I've won the teamwork lotto with my husband, he's a bloody good 🍳. My biggest tip is to assume nothing and communicate everything. Weekends are tricky, especially when we both have things we want to achieve and so we've got into the habit of asking on a Friday "what do you want to get done this weekend?" Then we prioritise and try to make sure each of us has time to ourselves to achieve that goal. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's been a game changer! 💑

👊Your way is always the right way👊⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My approach to making changes to your sleep situation is always based on the premise that your way is the right way ➕ you know what's best for your family ➕ we only change the bits that are no longer for you.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I truly believe that all parents should be empowered to believe that they know their family best and I will always honor this.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I'd love to hear some of the things you've been told you're doing 'wrong' or 'shouldn't do' and how you responded, let me know in the comments below 👇👇👇

🥰Therapeutic Power of Play 🥰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There's almost nothing that playing with your little ones can't achieve.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Mental health professionals have observed that play is as important to human happiness and well-being as love and work. Play is a child's natural language and any of their present struggles can usually be read in their play.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓Too much energy? Play.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓Feeling flat? Play.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓Needing 1:1 time? Play.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓Missing connection? Play.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓Struggling to learn a new concept? Play.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓Fearful of something? Play.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❓Feeling stressed? Play.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Time spent playing is never time spent wasted. ❌⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Children will never say "I've had a hard day", but they will take your hand and say "will you play with me?"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Do you love to play or struggle to play with your little ones? What's your favourite thing to play?

❓Have you ever told yourself that you aren't goo

❓Have you ever told yourself that you aren't good enough❓⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ That you're not old enough to do that, not experienced enough, don't have enough qualifications, aren't as good as someone else etc etc.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I think we've all been there in our personal, professional and parenting lives. Just remember that your little ones are listening to your inner dialogue and will believe what you say.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you believe that they can go on to achieve great things, so too can you! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What have you always wanted to do but struggled with due to self doubt?
