What do I mean when I say all feelings are welcome, not all behaviours are welcome? One key skill for building emotional resilience is learning to get comfort...able with emotions. ALL of them. But being comfortable with negative emotions doesn’t mean foregoing emotion regulation. Not all behaviour is appropriate, and sometimes, we need to sit in an emotion without fixing or taking it away. A part of allowing a negative emotion means not needing to change a boundary in order to contain it. But we can still have behavioural expectations. On the weekend, we had a birthday party for my son (turning six). He was given a stack of coloured cups to hand out. At first, he sat and tried to work out which person would like which colour. Then he stopped, shuffled them, and walked around the table handing them out in their random order. He got to his brother and paused. He KNOWS that this brother’s favourite colour is blue. He looked at the pile of cups, and the top one was orange. He took it, passed it to his brother and said You get what you get and you don’t get upset. If you scream and you shout then you’ll just miss out. Curious, I asked where he had learned that rhyme. He told me they say it as school when handing out items, in order to stop whining over favoured colours, and prevent the chaos of haggling and swapping. That’s interesting, I said, but sometimes, if I don’t get what I want, I AM disappointed. I DO get upset. Don’t you? Yes, but you’re not MEANT to! my son replied. Hmmmm actually, I think when something is upsetting, you’re allowed to be upset. Being disappointed when you miss out on something isn’t the WRONG feeling. Is it? I had all of their attention now. The eldest chipped in, Yeah, but if you whine about it, you’ll get in trouble and just miss out. But you’re not in trouble for being disappointed you’re in trouble for the whining, aren’t you? I guess. We talked about calm down strategies we can use when we are feeling upset, like deep breaths, and reminding ourselves about small problems vs big problems. Then my three boys set about writing a better rhyme. It’s longer than the original, but I think they did a great job. (Note: they use brave as a simplification of dialectical thinking the idea they can be both upset AND okay.) You get what you get And you might get upset. If you don’t get your fave You can practice being brave. Breathe in and breathe out You don’t need to shout. If you don’t get your way You can still be okay.

Play dough is all made for the littles this week. Play dough is great for strengthening hands and helping with dexterity which are precursors to writing skills. It allows for creative endeavours and exploration. Fine motors skills are so important. And best of all almost everyone loves playing with dough.

Hand washing and cleaning have always been an important part of our day so we only have to adjust a bit for the new protocols. It is going to be a fantastic autumn!

It is fantastic news the NB is doing so well that daycares are reopening. After the announcement owners were not given any clarity on what that actually looks like but promised more information next week. We are all working together to make the reopening a success. There are several questions and very few answers to share at the moment but I will continue to keep you informed as information is passed onto me.

Perfect day for some indoor Jedi Training! May the Fourth be you

Today is Earth Day. For Zoom yesterday we read, 'How to Help the Earth By The Lorax.' Then we did an oil and water experiment to show how they do not mix and we tried different ways to clean up the oil. Cheese cloth worked the best for us when compared to paper, soap, paper towel and cheese cloth. It is an easy experiment if you want to try it at home with your little ones. Happy Earth Day, stay safe.
