Seize The Moment

Good morning!

On an average day, you are probably waking your kids up for school, helping them find their clothes, feeding them, making their lunches, and taking them to school. All at the same time, you're getting yourself ready for work and presentable to the public:) Parents are amazing!!

Some parents think teaching only happens in the classroom or during special moments at the kitchen table during a fabulous family dinner. However, some of the best teaching happens in the midst of everyday situations. Those little conversations we have in the car, the moments at the store, or those times spent together doing house chores are all perfect opportunities to teach your child. Everything we model, everything they see and hear, are all mini learning lessons for them. So, seize the moment to stop and explain something, point out a detail or let your child learn through picking something up and analyzing it. It only takes a few extra minutes to create a memory, and memories create learning experiences!

Peace and blessings,
Lesa
