8 Tips for Building Positive Relationships With Children in Your Care
Positive relationships are critical for children. They nurture confidence, resilience, and determination, all of which are essential for children to thrive.
The good news is positive relationships can develop anywhere! From parents and caregivers to teachers and even extended family and friends.
Everyone has a role to ensure children are safe, loved and given the opportunity to thrive.
MINDFUL MASSAGE – SUN
Mindful massage is the combination of mindfulness and massage. Two great winding down, relaxing techniques all in one!
Giving your little one a mindful massage will help relax them and benefit your little one’s overall development. Mindfulness is about noticing what you see, hear, smell, touch, taste, and how your body feels. Exercising mindfulness provides tools to build self-esteem, self-regulate, manage stress, and skillfully approach challenges.
NATURE DRUMMING
Spending time outdoors can be incredibly beneficial for both you and your little ones. Being outside can naturally boost your energy and mood, which is excellent for your mental health.
So why not use the outdoors and make music with your little one? Engage with nature and the natural objects around you, promoting sensory stimulation and encouraging curiosity about the world. This, in turn, can enrich their exploratory impulses..
How to Support a Shy or Anxious Child
Shyness is common among young children, marked by feelings of discomfort, self-consciousness, nervousness, and bashfulness when facing social situations and new experiences.
Understanding and supporting your little one’s shyness can help them develop confidence and social skills, helping them to navigate the world with greater ease and resilience.
NATURE’S PAINT BRUSHES
This activity aims to develop little one’s curiosity and interest in exploring familiar experiences in nature. These include grass, plants and animal life.
Go on a nature hunt and collect the resources needed for this activity. It doesn’t matter if it’s windy, raining or sunny! Your little ones will love being outdoors and being exposed to a lot of sensory experiences from the wind blowing in their hair, to the texture of the leaves that they pick up.
As they paint with these nature brushes, little ones will begin to learn about the marks that they make which requires cognitive skills related to creative and critical thinking
The Difference Between Meltdowns and Tantrums & How to Help

Sometimes, it’s hard to distinguish between a tantrum and a meltdown, but understanding the differences can help you know your child better, respond effectively, and be supportive.
