The week before Christmas is the wobbly one โ especially for kids.
School routines change, excitement is sky-high, everyoneโs tired, and emotions run a bit closer to the surface.
Hereโs a gentle reminder for this stretch between the 18th and the 22nd:
๐ Kids get overwhelmed easily this week
Theyโre tired. Theyโre overstimulated. Theyโre trying to manage big feelings with small bodies.
๐ Take the pressure down at home
Keep things simple: easy dinners, slower evenings, lowered expectations.
Your calm helps their calm.
๐ Keep things soft and steady
A cosy film, a quiet chat, a short walk, a cuddle on the couch โ grounding moments matter more than ever.
๐ Connection first โ everything else can wait
Not every job needs doing.
Not every plan needs keeping.
What your child needs most this week is you: patient, present, and steady.
If youโre finding it all a bit much yourself โ thatโs normal too.
One slow evening can reset everyone. ๐
