Calm and Compassionate Children: A Handbook Paperback – 30 April 2007

Read this all the way through and implemented some of the recommendations immediately. I love the 'Blessings' poster we now have onto which we stick cut out leaves and flowers with some of the good things that have happened during the day - both mum and kid are learning to notice the good stuff in our lives! Also get into bed with my 4 year old to read the bedtime story and my daughter seems a lot more less prone to attention-grabing now I'm changing the quality of the attention I'm giving. Worth a study - lots of good gems here learnt from many years of experience with kids.
