Episode 34 - Preparing older siblings for the arrival of a new baby

<p><strong>Thank you for joining me!</strong></p> <p><strong>In this session we cover:</strong></p> <p>In this Top Tip Tuesday for InstaLive we looked at how to prepare older siblings for the arrival of a new baby.</p> <p>Some approaches suggest buying gifts to 'keep the older sibling busy', and others suggest to emphasise to the older sibling that they are "big now" so as to invoke a sense of responsibility.</p> <p>During the Live we talked about how we can approach this topic with sensitivity and respect, prepare older siblings in a way that invites discussion, and what expectations we can have around the older siblings behaviour /reaction to the new baby.</p> <p><strong>Visit enrichingenvironments.com SHOP for my transformative online Parent Enrichment Courses and Workshops. &nbsp;I’ll see you there!</strong></p> <p><strong>*All podcast sessions originally recorded on Instagram Live, see my IGTV @enrichingenvironments or YouTube Enriching Environments for the video.</strong></p> <p><strong>#enrichingenvironments</strong></p> <p><strong>#consciousparenting</strong></p> <p><strong>#montessoriathome</strong></p> <p><strong>#siblinglove</strong></p> <p><strong>#montessoriparenting</strong></p>
