Howdy ladies,

I am just about to go to bed albeit late, but Minti is painstakenly SLOW to load tonight, is it just me and my connection or are you finding Minti slow to do just about everything?

Thanks MUCH

Rach

I have just been reading about Social Skills article on Minti, "Social Skills for Kids" as I have been witness to just how complex and difficult it can be for a four year old to socialise, especially when 4 year old kids are at various stages of development and communication. Anything that can help us parents make the experience empowering rather than disempowering, helps our little four year olds try to socialise as much as they can. I think by working with the teacher and the school it can help children voice their concerns and worries about making friends and handling difficult situations like being left out.

I do rather like the idea of the "Bully Box" in the article by jeantracey ... I wonder if that idea would work here in Oz (Australia)...I guess I will only find out if I suggest it.

Our little man Joshy will be 12 months soon...my how times flies.

We will most likely have a little family gathering to celebrate and send some mini cupcakes for his little mates in daycare...

Yippee!!! One year coming up...
