Having conversations is crucial to healthy growth and development

As a mother and advocate, the resources from this website have been helpful to our family during times when we've experienced a need for additional mental wellness support. Their website has lots to mental health information to comb through, but today I'm sharing these conversation starters that are handy to have around to connect more with our kids at home. The following is from On Our Sleeves. 

"Kids are constantly going through a variety of emotions. How do you continue to know what they are going through? How do you build relationships so that they come to you?
By starting conversations – and keeping them going. Having conversations is crucial to healthy growth and development. And the more you practice, the more you can build your confidence to tackle life’s tough subjects with your kids, such as mental health concerns, racism and tragedy. Our resources can guide you in getting started and giving advice, along with how to talk about difficult topics."
