Les pièges qui se tendent aux adultes quand des enfants se disputent (et pourquoi nous intervenons trop ou mal)

Non seulement nous empêchons les enfants d’apprendre des compétences sociales à travers leurs conflits mais nous risquons de passer à côté des enjeux profonds et des émotions cachées à l’origine des conflits en nous contentant d’une résolution superficielle (ex : confisquer un jouet, punir dans la chambre). Nous faisons cela parce que nous confondons conflit et méchanceté, colère et violence. L’évitement du conflit ne construit pas une paix durable ! Sans conflit, on n’est plus vraiment gentil mais soumis. – Isabelle Filliozat Les pièges qui se tendent aux adultes face aux conflits des enfants Prendre parti (plutôt qu’enseigner des compétences émotionnelles et relationnelles)Chercher un coupable (plutôt qu’une solution)Devenir agresseur soi-même en criant, punissant, excluant (plutôt que devenir médiateur)Penser en termes de victime et d’agresseur (plutôt qu’en termes d’émotions et de besoins) Tu te sens…

At any given time you’ll find four or more parenting books on my Amazon wish list, a few by my nightstand, and an email box chock full of insightful parenting theories and approaches.

Granted, child development is my career, but I speak with plenty of parents in my practice who find themselves in similar circumstances. With information around every corner and our culture projecting constant messages (many times contradictory) regarding how we should raise our kids, feeling like a confident and intentional parent can seem out of reach many days. In my 12 years as a family therapist, I’ve seen many well-intentioned parents mistakenly employing strategies that aren’t meeting the emotional or developmental needs of their children or families. The Kids toys you should keep for the next generation.

The illustrations can provide a sample of the artist’s work or illustrate his or her unique way of seeing the world, while the story can describe how the artist came to be an artist, what they were like when they were kids, or even what it was like to have a famous artist as an uncle. Here are six vibrantly illustrated picture books about artists that will make story time feel as invigorating as a trip to the art museum.

Garden Project for Kids: Seed Starts. My grandfather used to plant a huge vegetable garden every year, no matter that he lived right in the heart of Los Angeles. I remember growing up with fresh corn and zucchini from his harvest and seeing his huge stock of carefully caterogized and labeled seeds. Now that my kids are getting a little older, I decided it was time for us to start planting a small vegetable garden and we are having fun observing our proverbial “garden grow.” This is a favorite garden project for kids: Seed Starts using Egg Cartons. We might have actually overdone it this year as I have more seedlings than space! Salvaging your child’s creativity — the new literacy. We know them — the kids who read before they are potty trained, play classical piano before entering elementary school, or compute high school math in first grade.

By Adam Voiland Design by Jesse Allen & Paul Przyborski December 15, 2015 A few years ago, while working on a story about wildfires, a V appeared to me in a satellite image of a smoke plume over Canada.

That image made me wonder: could I track down all 26 letters of the English alphabet using only NASA satellite imagery and astronaut photography? With the help of readers and colleagues, I started to collect images of ephemeral features like clouds, phytoplankton blooms, and dust clouds that formed shapes reminiscent of letters. Some letters, like O and C, were easy to find. Others—A, B, and R—were maddeningly difficult. World café in a school with 11-years-old kids - The World Cafe Community.

Here's Why Steve Jobs Didn't Let His Kids Use iPads And Why You Shouldn't Either. If you fall within the Gen-Y era like us, chances are you've given a bunch of thought as to how you would raise your own children in this day and age (assuming you don't have children already).

Thanks to Instagram and similar filter-heavy photo apps, artful photography has become so user-friendly that everybody seems at least proficient at it—even, apparently, a little Lego person. U.K. -based photographer Andrew Whyte shows us the world through the lens of just such a small artist in a new photo series called "The Legographer.

" These expertly composed photos, which Whyte took on his iPhone every day for a year, feature a Lego Man, rocking a Lego knit cap instead of the famous bowl cut, lugging around a Lego camera and taking pictures that we will never see. Despite his diminutive size, this little guy seems to have had some big adventures. He scales buildings, he’s chased by a hermit crab, and slips on a giant (to him) banana peel.
