Holiday Survival Guide
Breaks from school can actually feel quite stressful for children, as their regular schedules and routines are disrupted. As we head into a the festive holiday, here are some tips on how to minimise the tears and maximise the joy at home.
How can parents help?
As always with parenting, it is most important to look after yourself first. Make sure your own cup is full so you can stay calm. You can also let them know in advance what they will be doing over the holiday and remind them again every morning the plans for that day. Many children will also do better if you keep to some routine and schedule every day, to offer them some predictability. If you can, always include some outdoor or physical activity every day as it helps them to stay regulated. Finally, remember to do less and connect more!
Sometimes we could all do with someone to talk to. If you would like to meet Helen for a confidential and non-judgemental chat about you, your child, or any other worries, she is available on Wednesdays and Thursdays 9-10am. You can call/text Helen on 07429 654584 or email her at helen@schoolscounsellingpartnership.co.uk
