  • Preparing Kids (And Ourselves!) For Summer Independence [Classic Replay]

    Preparing Kids (And Ourselves!) For Summer Independence [Classic Replay]
    Apr 19 2024

    Summer lets kids expand their experiences, gain new skills, and experience independence – but those opportunities can be scary, too! In this classic replay from 2022, Meagan and Sarah share stories about the times our kids seemed vulnerable when faced with more independence, how those nerves showed up in our children (and ourselves!), how we handled our nervous energy, and planned for major milestones with kids who were nervous to spread their wings. Enjoy!

    HELPFUL LINKS:

    • This playlist has over 30 episodes of The Mom Hour about planning for summer
    • Sarah has found the books The Gift of Failure by Jessica Lahey and How to Raise an Adult by Julie Lythcott-Haims very motivating to encourage kids to get outside their comfort zones.
    • Sarah heard Martha Beck talking about brain science on Glennon Doyle’s podcast We Can Do Hard Things
    • Read our Contributor Joanne’s blog post, “This Is Too Hard!”: How I’m Showing My Kids The Importance Of Doing Hard Things
