#mindfulmonday THREAD & we're all about gratitude! It starts with us as parents, carers, caregivers, grown ups. Show up for your little one's by helping them appreciate the small things in life. The things that make the 🌎 beautiful, sparkle, shine.
We know it's been a tough year. We've been #homeschooling, #parentinginapandemic and working. It's been rough, full stop. But remember the clapping, the rainbows, the neighbourly kindnesses. That's the human in us all shining through.
This week, try to focus on #gratitude. 🙏

Here's some ideas! 👇👇 What works for you?

Socialization while #socialdistancing. A thread. I know this is hard. I’m going to share here how we celebrated my daughters 6th birthday to give some examples on how you can still celebrate the important moments that continue to happen as life goes on during this #pandemic.
First we asked my daughter to pick a few friends and we asked each to sign up for a 20 min slot. We asked that anyone who came wear a mask, and asked if anyone was having symptoms to pls decline the invite. We decorated our garage and put tape on the ground #6FtApartAndMasked
When ppl arrived they would first hand sanitize then write in a birthday book (we had mult pens). We had a backdrop for ppl to take pictures. Next stop the piñata where prior to touching the stick u would hand sanitize, then take 3 whacks. Next was socially distanced #hopscotch.

1/ When schools first closed I realised my 5yo would need to wear an #eyepatch at home on weekdays for 2 hours each day. I was already bored and quickly scribbled something resembling @CaptainAmerica shield on the 1st one. Thus began the Daily Superhero Eyepatch Challenge! Image
2/ The next day I got a request for @DCBatman. I put in a bit more effort to get it right this time, and discovered that gel pens are great for drawing on the #eyepatch surface. #superhero #parenting #eyepatching Image
3/ The next request I got was for @DCComics Flash. Flash by name, flash by nature! #superhero #eyepatching #parenting #lockdown Image
