๐ Hi Reader, โ ๐ Being a grown up can condition us to โdoingโ things all the time, and as parents this often translates to feeling we need to help our children be โdoingโ something. For children though simply spending time in our company is enough. ๐ Mindfulness helps us to focus on the present moment, and so we have some ideas on how you can focus on the present - while indoors. Spending time indoors can often bring up feelings of frustration, and sometimes lead to family conflict, so weโve focussed on ideas that help to bring calm and connection. ๐ Read all the ideas on our social media platforms. If you're a Wee Seeds member, we've put all can find all our tips in your Mini-Minds Toolbox for easy access! If you're not a member, find our more hereโ
