Sharing Christmas

Bobby’s First Day recounts the events of the day Bobby was born, through the eyes of newborn Bobby, who is seeing and experiencing the world for the first time. This charming, rhyming story shows us the confusing and funny way the world must seem to a baby and is engaging for both parents telling the story and the children listening.

Moms and kids disagree on a lot of issues. After one particular morning full of disagreements over just about everything, this book was written by a stressed-out mom and deals with the debates over bedtime, chores, bicycling rules, and movie choices.  While trying to understand why so many rules exist, the child in the book realizes the rules are in place for his safety and health, and because he is loved.

Parents everywhere can relate to disagreements over family rules.  Hopefully, as parents read Mom and I Disagree with their children they can reassure their children that the rules of their home are made out of concern and love.

Do you want to improve your child’s behavior? An undiscovered window to guiding your children is open while they sleep! During this time your child’s developing ego-mind is quiet and cannot disagree or talk back. This is an open door for a caring parent to suggest alternative thoughts, feelings, and actions. A belief that your child holds like “Kids pick on me,” becomes “Other children treat you with kindness,” or “Other kids like you,” or simply, “You are loved.” As a parent, you can generate affirmations of love, kindness, and happiness in the minds of your children. This is a sacred trust. Your children are watching, listening, and imitating you and other role models throughout each day. Sleep is a time to suggest the best to your children to enhance their self-esteem and their regard for others.
