Thanks for reinforcing the importance of play. Chores will keep, but childhood doesn't! (And, btw, my husband never judges. The guilt is self-imposed.)Amberhttp://becausebabiesgrowup.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2824034147018793979.post-61329878923145059342009-04-04T17:15:00.000-04:002009-04-04T17:15:00.000-04:00'That’s is one of the big challenges that parents of growing children face; how to help your child stay “cool” while encouraging them to stay “young” too.'<BR/><BR/>AMEN! I was watching my 4-year-old play with an 8-year-old recently, and I could see that already the 8-year-old was adopting some social conventions that led her to be more reserved in her play. Which isn't necessarily bad, but it did give me pause. How do you help your child balance it all?<BR/><BR/>Anyways, you've given me some more ideas and food for thought, and I appreciate that. :)Amberhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15553232842051185693noreply@blogger.com
