Cheers to a new year filled with hope. In 2026, let’s keep showing up for the families who need us most.

What’s one word you want to carry into the new year?

12/24/2025

Day 12 🎉 Celebrate small wins. You made it through the season with love, effort, and resilience. That’s enough. Happy Holidays! SFI

12/23/2025

Day 11 🧠 Self-care isn’t selfish. Whether it’s a warm bath, a walk, or a phone call—fill your cup too. Your kids are watching.

12/22/2025

Day 10 💞 Words matter. Take a moment today to tell your child what you love about them—unrelated to achievement.

12/21/2025

Day 9 🗓 Feeling overscheduled? You don’t have to do it all. Prioritize what feels meaningful to *you*. Put your feet up and let the rest go.

12/20/2025

Day 8 🤗 Not everyone celebrates the same. Invite curiosity and compassion into holiday conversations. Teach kids about different traditions.

12/19/2025

Day 7 📱 Too much screen time? Set realistic limits. Try screen-free 'power hours', cozy tech-free mornings, or family outings instead.

12/18/2025

Day 6 🎄 Sensory overload is real. Bright lights, loud noises, crowded spaces—plan quiet breaks for kids (and yourself). Learn more about our Empowering Neurodiverse Kids program here: https://strongestfamilies.com/behaviour-parents-empowering-neurodiverse-kids/

12/17/2025

Day 5 ❤️ Practice gratitude together. Try a dinner roundtable: “One thing I’m thankful for today is…”

12/16/2025

Day 4 💡 Big feelings are normal. Help your kids label emotions: “It sounds like you’re frustrated.” Validation goes a long way.

12/15/2025

Day 3 💬 Set boundaries with love. If holiday gatherings feel overwhelming, it’s okay to say no or leave early. You matter too.

12/14/2025

Day 2 ✨ Kids don’t need *more stuff*. They need presence, not presents. Make a new tradition: a family walk, baking day, or game night.
