Sometimes you really need to pause and think about the world our kids are currently growing up in… going through a pandemic, and constant fears of something like that happening again. World constantly being on the brink of world war three… On top of other natural disasters. 

When I was younger, I remember sitting in a rocking chair… during the 89 San Francisco earthquake. And I spent years holding on to that fear, that it was going to happen again… and I did not speak to anyone about those fears. And I worry my kids are doing the same thing, cramming all those fears deep down. 



This book is like talking to a friend. Someone who understands you. I love all the parent activities, crafts and pauses. It seems trivial, but it is so important to take a minute. There are so many amazing suggestions in this book for parenting, but also self care for yourself. Because you have to take care of yourself too. There’s also guides for family bonding, which is so important in this day and age!

It truly is a great book full of excellent ideas and resources. Highly recommend.
