But Enough About Me
June 30, 2008
As much as it's endlessly interesting to gaze at one's own navel (especially when that navel is an adorable preschooler's navel), well, after a while, enough is enough! So as this month draws to a close, with summer in full force, we think that even our preschoolers might agree that it's time to move on, and look upward and outward at this big wide world of ours for a change.
Before we turn to the adventures of July, did you catch...
- our views on the developmental aspects of preschooler navel-gazing
- our notions on how to keep the joy and wonder of birthdays going all year long
- our answer to the question of what's in a name?
- our picks for best books and toys to teach little ones about their bodies and boo-boos
- our ideas for activities, from self-portrait and handprint projects to journals for young children and parents, to ways of celebrating family and teaching the "411" info children need to learn to stay safe
- our list of books about friendship
- our thoughts on different kinds of learning styles in young children
- our questions about what gender differences means to preschoolers
- our take on measuring just how big our kids have suddenly become, and how little they still remain
- our local guide to great date night spots for parents
- our tips on choosing after-preschool activities
- our interview with Gretchen Rubin of The Happiness Project
- our musings and reading list on the topic of our children's favorite things
- our advice on helping kids get to know their neighborhood
- our ideas for supporting young children's budding independence and self-help skills
There's much more to say about all of these topics, of course. And as none of the little ones we know ever tire of talking about themselves for long, we'll continue to return to these foundational preschool and parenting themes no matter where else we may take you.
