Imagine coming home to a child who is not only happy but eager to help out around the house. A child who can count, put a little stool on the ground, jump on it, count veggies for a meal, cut them up, and sing along with you. This is the reality for many parents involved in the CoRE program. One of the most powerful aspects of CoRE is how it reduces the load on mothers, who are often under immense pressure. We’ve seen parents coming back to us just a month or two after the program starts, amazed at the changes in their children. They ask us: "Why is my child doing these things? Why is my child coming home wanting to help? Why is my child tidying up? Why is my child wanting to cut the vegetables?" These are tangible changes that make a real difference in daily life. Speaking with parents whose children are part of CoRE has been profoundly inspiring. I am so proud of what we've accomplished together—the dedicated teachers, the resilient mothers, and most importantly, the thriving children. Someone once said, "Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world.” The work we are doing with CoRE is the very essence of compounding. Imagine that child, eager to help out around the house, who can count, who gets involved. Compound this over the years, child by child, mother by mother, family by family, neighbourhood by neighbourhood, province by province, country by country. This is the stuff that really moves the societal needle, and it has to start somewhere. This is where it starts!

Empowering Lives and Nurturing Parenting Journeys | Certified Life and Parent Coach | Transforming Family Dynamics and Personal Growth
What Children Can Learn Only from Grandparents As parents, we strive to provide our children with the best education, experiences, and guidance. However, there is a unique source of wisdom that children can only gain from their grandparents. First and foremost, grandparents provide a connection to the past. Through their stories, children learn about their family history, cultural heritage, and traditions that shape their identity. These firsthand accounts instill a sense of pride and belonging, fostering a deeper understanding of their roots. Moreover, grandparents offer a different perspective on life. Their experiences have taught them invaluable lessons about resilience, patience, and adaptability. They possess a wealth of practical skills and old-fashioned wisdom that is often overlooked in today's fast-paced world. Furthermore, grandparents are a living example of unconditional love and support. They provide a safe space for children to express their feelings, ask questions, and receive unbiased advice. Grandparents offer a sense of stability and security, nurturing the emotional well-being of their grandchildren. The role of grandparents in a child's life is irreplaceable. Their unique wisdom, connection to the past, practical skills, and unwavering support contribute to a well-rounded upbringing. As parents, let us encourage and cherish the bond between our children and their grandparents, for it is through this special relationship that our children will gain insights and life lessons that will shape their future. #ChildrenAndGrandparents #GrandparentGuidance #LegacyLessons #FamilyRoots #CherishTheBond #BondsAcrossGenerations #GrandparentConnection ----------------------------------------------------------- The video is sourced from YouTube and the credits go to its creator.

Executive Financial Consultant at IG Wealth Management serving ambitious women and their families in PEI and NB.
Parenthood is unpredictable, but the financial aspect doesn't have to be daunting. In each stage, there are key strategies to fortify your family's financial foundation. Before your baby arrives, arm yourself with knowledge about government benefits and employer offerings during parental leave. Establish a will and review your financial plan with an advisor. During infancy, explore government benefits like the Canada Child Benefit and consider an RESP for education savings. In middle childhood, introduce basic money concepts and encourage saving. Navigate the Mirror-Window Effect with teenagers, teaching wise money management and exploring post-secondary education funding. As your child becomes a young adult, pass on financial wisdom through personalized planning. Parenthood is a series of pivots, but strategic financial planning can add stability to the journey.

I Found a Need and I Took Action... What do you do when you see a problem that negatively impacts children? While complaining and venting can be a quick tension reducer, it does nothing to help kids. When I was in the classroom teaching, it was apparent that books and media are not designed to reach the diverse needs of our students. Actionforchildren.org states that a lack of representation in children’s books leads to children growing up feeling less valuable than others, which leads to anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. With these issues already being a concern, all on the rise since the pandemic, with over 10 million kids suffering, we have to do what we can to ensure children feel they matter! I am Victoria Karnatski, a retired New York City educator, with over 23 years of experience. I saw first-hand children in the classroom who searched to feel seen and represented in the media. So, rather than wait for somebody else to step up to the plate, I decided to write 26 books addressing my concerns. I have 3 published already: Magical Margherita, Rescuing Reeva, and Excited Evian! I have 5 more books on the way over the next year! I took a leap of faith to fill this need and although I suffered through many personal tragedies and I have my own anxieties, I am confident that each story will greatly impact all who read it. Most importantly, we have to turn around these daunting statistics. Here are just a few ways adults and teachers can let children know how valuable they are: Listen with all of Your Senses: when a child knows we are listening to them, really listening, they feel better about themselves! Confidence skyrockets and anxiety decreases! Ask Questions: Listening is great, curiosity is next level. When we engage with a child and ask questions, that child will open up in an extraordinary way! Create a Diverse Library: Fill your bookshelves with intention! Find books that speak to different backgrounds and stories!! Keep these books in your home and classroom and read them to the kids in your life regularly! Start a discussion around these books. These are just a few ways we can encourage children and allow them to know how much they matter. I am on a mission to do something about these statistics and about representation so that books, media, and schools are inclusive for all. By representing diverse characters and situations, I hope to create greater compassion and empathy amongst children and their peers. My stories help spark deeper discussions into lifestyles and are created not to just talk about the surface story. Each book contains discussion questions to help guide the reader delve into the story on a deeper level. Caring Kids A-Z books will help bolster confidence in the youth of today. When children’s confidence is at an all time high, they dream bigger, take more action, show more responsibility and are more likely to reach their full potential.
