Great Holiday Book Suggestions For Your Children

I am very passionate about literacy for children. We have a tradition in our house come December 1st once a week both girls receive a Christmas book leading up until Christmas we add to our ever expanding library of great books. I love a good book and found PBS Kids is thinking like me. Here's some book suggestions for Hanukkah and Christmas. Enjoy, have fun and READ with your kiddos!

Welcome Parents

I'm a mom with two young children and one with special needs. I get it! I know what kinds of information you're seeking as I look for this too. So, I go on adventures with my kids and relay my findings, I see interesting articles about topics I think are helpful from sensory challenges, to potty training, managing homework Executive Functioning, how to manage developmental milestones and what they look like, what is Apraxia and MORE. My two blogs are always a work in progress and I listen to YOU out there for ideas. Thanks for the interest, share with your friends and hopefully I'm helping find your way navigating through parenthood.

Favorite Quotes

"Children learn best when they can take initiative and use some of their own ideas. Structured activities, while OK for part of the time, don't provide the opportunity for initiative, creative thinking or even high levels of abstract reasoning." Dr. Stanley Greenspan
"We have got to work on keeping these children engaged with the world." Dr. Temple Grandin
"Research is starting to show that a child should be engaged at least 20 hours a week. I do not think it matters which program you choose as long as it keeps the child actively engaged with the therapist, teacher, or parent for at least 20 hours a week." Dr. Temple Grandin
When children's curiosity leads them into places we don't feel they're ready for, we need to trust our intuition about that. Curiosity can still flourish if we give children a sense that they'll understand more about such things as they grow. -- Mister Rogers
