Tip of the day

Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

I could apply the advice staight away and really feel like this was a break throughfor me and the kids in the way we interact with each other. I feel like I set boundaries and respect them at the same time. I loved the sense of humour that this book suggests you have with the children - it gets us through the worst moments!
