So Curly Headed Boy started in reception last September. I expected it to be a bit tricky, but by the end of the first term he was no happier and it was really affecting him at home. So I’ve been posting about the 7 steps (See the category ‘starting reception‘) that I took to try and resolve it, but I thought I would summarise them here.
How did I know that it was something that needed to be looked into, rather than something that would just sort itself out? Well, I suppose that is all relative, but when there were . . . → Read More: 7 Tips For Helping Your Child Enjoy School More

Why do people have to disagree with us or have a go at us? Do you ever wonder? Wouldn’t it be easier or nicer if it was different? Or if everybody was nice all the time would it actually not work for us?
I know that in this world there will always be as many people who like me as who dislike me. Plus there will be people who agree with me and disagree with me, and just because they disagree with me, doesn’t mean they don’t like me (there’s a tongue twister for you!). Sometimes I might not notice it because . . . → Read More: Turning my noisy head off
By MummyWhisperer, on March 15th, 2011% So I mentioned a while back that Curly Headed boy wasn’t happy at school and had lost confidence. I’m going to summarise all the steps I took to help him out next week. But first I want to talk about the final option in a bit more detail.
Now I’m not a ‘pushy’ mum, as I don’t panic about not starting Curly Headed Boy in piano immediately because he is 5, or that he must be able to speak Japanese by the time he is 6. But maybe I was a bit wrong to not give him something extra outside of school. My thinking was . . . → Read More: Giving your children confidence by focussing outside of school
By MummyWhisperer, on February 9th, 2011% I’ve been sharing my tips for helping your kids when they aren’t happy at school, as Curly headed boy was struggling (he has just started reception). Here is another one of my tips, which has worked surprisingly well, and might be useful if you have kiddies not keen on returning to school after the half term.
First you do need to know your child quite well. My boy loves to have special times that have been thought through and organised for him, the whole ‘quality time’ thing. It can be anything as simple as a picnic in the garden, playing a puzzle game together, . . . → Read More: The Power of a couple of monkeys in giving security
By MummyWhisperer, on February 4th, 2011% I’ve done a few posts about Curly Headed Boy’s struggles at reception, and the good news is that things definitely seem to be improving. This morning we had a chat, and it appears that his improved confidence is really affecting his confidence in the class room as well, and he is mixing a lot more with the other children.
There are still several things that I’ve been purposely doing that I need to blog about, and one of them is this really easy tip for improving your child’s confidence, especially when they are a first child and another appears.
The problem is, that . . . → Read More: When the second child is praised for it’s poo, the first child can struggle!
By MummyWhisperer, on January 28th, 2011% So I have mentioned in a post a few weeks back that Curly Headed Boy wasn’t very happy in reception (first year of school). Last week I explained how I had tackled one of the problems, which is that he often feels overly criticised by the children in his class. So, I thought I would give you an update on how he is doing.
He certainly seems to have gained some confidence, especially because he now understands that his lovely teacher has put him on the table with clever kids on purpose, and not because they had made a mistake. So he is . . . → Read More: How Play Dates help with school and bullying
By MummyWhisperer, on January 21st, 2011% I’ve mentioned in a previous post that Curly Headed Boy is struggling with his first year at school a little, but we have a plan in place to work on it, and I promised to mention the different things I try, so here is one of them:
He happens to be on a table with some very clever, but quite critical children (don’t get me wrong, he can be pretty critical himself, so it’s not like he doesn’t know how to do it too). Some have been criticising his work, telling him he’s doing things wrong, and generally having a little pick. Recently they . . . → Read More: When your child thinks that ‘everyone’ is against him
By MummyWhisperer, on January 17th, 2011% We are a bit like plants, and our children are too. Some environments help us to blossom, and some are more of a struggle.
Put us in the right soil, with exactly the right amount of cold, heat, and water, and we’ll take off like a tree and blossom amazingly.
Put us in a place that feels too cold for us, and we’ll shrivel up (become introverted and insecure). Put us in a place that over stimulates us and we’ll become a man-eating triffid (become precocious and over confident).
