Big Kid
Your gradeschooler may look and even act like a big kid, but they'll always be your baby. Even so, their needs and wants are going to change whether you're ready or not. Help foster their independence, confidence and sense of self as they venture off to school, more out-of-the-house activities or play dates with friends.
Green Child Magazine knows that a growing child requires a parent to grow along with them. So we are here to help you support your child through every stage of development. Whether that means creating a healthy sleeping environment for your school age child or deciding if your child ready for a pet. You'll also find tons of free online resources for keeping kids busy while they're at home and healthy school lunch ideas.
All of these changes may not only be a lot for you to process, but for your big kid as well. Help your child cope with stress through guided meditation and learn how to stop negative self talk.
