Episode 18 | Creating Spaces for Kids

Creating spaces for our children to thrive in can be key in keeping chaos at bay and encouraging them to feel relaxed, seen, and heard by the way you fill their space. Your choices can support their growing curiosities and enhance their opportunity to learn about themselves and the world. Eliminating mental and physical clutter seems to be the biggest challenge for parents because how many “goodie bags” and cheap items have you brought home from countless birthday parties?  Let’s talk about dealing with all of it.

If you didn’t start listening at Episode 1, I invite you to start from the beginning.  There are too many jewels to miss.
