The idea came to me in a dream — no but really, I was just wide awake at 3 in the morning trying to figure out how to make my emails more beneficial. And it hit me. Links to things I find useful, an xoplaytime activity from the week and an Xo Parenting recap from this podcast. BAM! I hope this benefits at least one of you.
I am actually not an affiliate for ANY of these companies. So this is just sharing some authentic, good finds! ENJOY!

I've decided recently that I actively want to work on creating a culture of consent in my home and family. If my kids don't like something they can say "I don't like it" and if the child doesn't respond then they can walk away and they don't have to feel any guilt about what that other child's feeling because it's okay to you know to create this space and have a break.
What consent is really understanding the concept of body autonomy.
Body Autonomy: My body belongs to me I get to do what I want with it and no one can tell me what to do with it

The main purpose of having open-ended toys is learning. So more toys than not should be able to serve multiple uses and engage them in different ways. But there is a place for the others too. BALANCE.

How can we realize if we're parenting from a place of intention and purpose or if we're being influenced and parenting from a place of habit?
Teresa: Okay, one way is just to ask yourself a question, have I ever considered my parenting? Like, did I truly think about my core values, the core values that I want to give my children have I truly thought about and like remember when I said there's a parallel between like in corporate and parenting, how I thought about my family mission statement most times you know we want to have a baby we want to have a family we just have one and we go. So ask yourself have I really gone through the thought process because yes we want the best for our children but have we thought about what's my mission statement for my family, what's my purpose statement? And when you just think about it like well, I really haven't dug deep to ask questions about this journey of parenting where I want to go its habit, it's just oh I’m going to be a parent let's do this.
