Say goodbye to emotional deregulation and negotiations with our brilliant timetable designed to ease transitions and promote smooth sailing throughout the day!
Children often struggle with switching between activities because they haven't been informed about what's happening next. Our timetable provides a clear roadmap of the day's events, allowing your child to understand the bigger picture and prepare for upcoming activities.
Not only does the timetable serve as a visual aid for your child, but it also aids communication and discussion about the day's schedule. By referring to the timetable throughout the day, you can engage your child in conversations about what's happening and why transitions are necessary. Because there is a visual cue, your child can manage their emotions better because they don’t have to listen to a verbal instruction (much harder for young children to do).
The key to smooth transitions is in making your child familiar with what is happening today and referring to a visual for each activity regularly. By running through the day at breakfast time, children can get a feel for the day and be prepared for transitions because they know what’s coming next. Children find this hugely reassuring.
You get a back board which you can laminate or stick to some card, and 20 activity cards and 4 blank cards to customise. You can stick these on with blue tack or sticky velcro. With print friendly versions with less ink consumption, and spaces for you to stick photos or drawings of relatives and friends you might visit, the timetable has everything you need to be adaptable, versatile and informative to your child.
You can end stressful negotiations and welcome peaceful transitions with our trusty timetable by your side - print out a version half sized and stick it in your handbag or in the car so you can remind your child - It's the key to avoiding meltdowns and maintaining harmony in your daily routine!
Ages 2 - 10
Does your child want to put things in purses, bags or handbags all the time? Or maybe they love to throw things? Or climb on anything and everything? If so, they are probably exploring what educators call a schema. They are a child’s way of investigating something in all it’s possible formats!
You can unlock the wonderful world of schemas with our comprehensive guide designed to empower parents and caregivers! If you've ever noticed your child fixating on repetitive behaviors like swinging, hiding, or wrapping things up, you're witnessing the fascinating world of schemas in action. Our easy-to-read guide demystifies this fundamental stage of early years development, shedding light on what schemas are and why they're crucial for your child's growth and understanding of the world, and importantly, how you can support this development without it driving you barmy!
Inside this package, you'll find:
- The Blossom Guide to Schemas: Your ultimate resource for understanding the importance of schemas and how they shape your child's learning journey.
- Orientation Schema: Dive deep into this common schema and discover practical ways to encourage exploration and understanding.
- Trajectory Schema: Explore how your child's fascination with movement can foster creativity and spatial awareness.
- Transporting Schema: Learn how to harness your child's love for transporting objects to promote problem-solving and fine motor skills.
- Positioning Schema: Uncover the significance of your child's interest in arranging objects and how it contributes to cognitive development.
Each guide is packed with insights, tips, and fun activities to help you support your child's schema exploration with ease. Embrace the power of schemas and watch as your child's thinking skills and creativity soar to new heights!
Now I can hear parents all over saying 'What??? Fill egg shells with paint and then throw them?? Where's the learning in that?
Well… let us explain. There are lots of things to be got from throwing things in a controlled environment. Lots of children are fixated by throwing and this is called a throwing schema (say skeemer) - you can read more about them in Supporting Schemas - A Blossom Guide. This is a developmental process of discovery - like a science experiment, so is testing all sorts of theories out, so it's essential for those children to get throwing opportunities.
BUT even if your child isn't exploring a schema, throwing is fabulous exercise. It exercises the shoulder muscles and hand eye co-ordination, aim, trying again, processing failure and having another go, delayed gratification and planning (in waiting for enough egg shells to make a game!), plus it's exciting so requires emotional regulation practise. Most of all though, it's fun!!
This activity is something you can repeat again and again, so the fun can be repeated, and don't worry, we tell you everything you need to make sure it doesn't get too messy!
