Social Distancing Resources

I know many of you are struggling to find some sense of control during this chaotic time. I can’t stress how important a schedule or at least a routine is for your children, especially now. Consistency = safety to a child. When they know what to expect, they feel secure. When they feel safe and secure, their behavior will stay steady. A schedule or routine also helps you stay in charge and consistent in your parenting, which will help you feel calm and patient. This will also help your child feel safe and secure. I know it can be daunting and overwhelming, especially if you aren’t used to so much time at home or if you have a hard time with structure, so I’m here to help! I created a schedule and a list of activities that we are doing at my house. Please copy these or use them as motivation. If you need help, please reach out!

This is a very loose schedule. I’ll make updates as we go and figure out what works or what doesn’t. I think our days are going to look different depending on the weather, our mood, what kind of work my husband needs to do, etc.
