Parenting can be an isolating experience, especially in the early days. Baby groups or Peep groups are a great way to build connections & relationships through joint experience, and establish support networks.

Word of the day is a reminder of ‘mubble-fubbles’: a fit of gloom and despondency combined with a sense of impending doom.

Essentially the mubble-fubbles are the 16th-century equivalent of the Sunday evening blues.

Sharing books and stories with babies has so many benefits, not least that it's a great opportunity to snuggle up. It is never too early, or too late, to start enjoying books with children.

[Peeple @PeepleCentre]

Repetition of the same book helps children become familiar with the words and pictures; they feel confident about using books and encouraged to ‘read’ stories for themselves #earlyliteracy #peeptips #iamareader

❓Why do we talk about “sharing books” with babies & children more than “reading”?

📖Because sharing books is about so much more than reading! You don’t even need to read any words to share a book - just chat about the pictures, make up a story or use favourite phrases.

Parents, teachers and other people who have an important role in a child's life all have their part to play in helping them to grow and learn.

Mental health is a universal human right & starts from the moment we are born: the way that babies feel about themselves is influenced by their relationships with the important people in their life, built through positive, loving & caring interactions. #WorldMentalHealthDay2023
