I personally love Christmas and everything that goes with it!
As it can be for an amazing time of year full of magic, wonderful surprises, new (or no) routines, visiting lots of people on family adventures, enjoying new or different foods…. Amazing right?
Not for everyone, for some people it can also be a really overwhelming, busy, loud, overstimulating, confusing, unregulated, and challenging time.
Adults find it hard to communicate what they are really feeling a lot of the time, so imagine being a small person in a challenging environment…
Before we make a decision about a behaviour and or situation, as hard as it can be sometimes, we should try to check in with our little people to make sure they are really ok… are they having fun or overstimulated and a little out of control…? There’s a fine line ♥️
Sending Christmas hugs to all those who need them x
