    #19: Parenting Series: The Power Of An Ordinary Day
    Oct 11 2023
    What is a good day? A bad day? A productive day? As adults, some of our best days are when we feel like we got a lot done, but those can be some of our kids' worst days. They can feel like they didn't get anything done. We have outings and errands to stay busy, when, often, kids just need less, not more. For kids, play is their work. In today's episode, we talk about the power of an ordinary day for kids - a "home day": an ordinary day where kids can just play, time is irrelevant, and the gateway to learning, imagination, and development really opens!
