Mom Talk Support Advice and Groups

Moms Need Good Friends

Are you a new mom, a seasoned veteran, or somewhere in between? Look for groups catering to your specific needs, like "Newborn Mamas" or "Toddler Tamers” or do you prefer outdoor activities, playdates, or discussions about raising children? Groups often focus on specific interests, so find one that aligns with yours. Do you want social interaction, parenting advice, or to build a support network? Choosing a group with similar goals will ensure a fulfilling experience. Look for groups that meet online or in person, depending on your preference. Do you prefer small, intimate gatherings or larger, more dynamic groups? Choose a size that feels comfortable and allows for meaningful connections. Some groups focus on discussions, while others organize regular playdates or workshops. Ultimately, choose a group that feels comfortable and welcoming to you. Don't hesitate to ask for help and support – that's what mom groups are for!

Leaning Tools for Littles

Teaching toddlers can be challenging, as they are at a stage where they are curious and energetic, but still have limited attention spans and may not have developed strong language skills. Here are a few tips for teaching 2 year olds:

  1. Keep lessons short: Toddlers have short attention spans, so it is important to keep lessons and activities short and engaging.

  2. Use hands-on activities: Toddlers learn best through play and exploration, so it is important to incorporate hands-on activities that allow them to use their senses and manipulate objects.

  3. Use simple language: Toddlers are still developing their language skills, so it is important to use simple, clear language when communicating with them.

  4. Use repetition: Repetition helps Toddlers learn and retain new information. It is also helpful to review previously learned concepts.

  5. Be patient: Toddlers are still learning how to communicate and express themselves, and they may get frustrated when they are unable to do so. It is important to be patient and understanding when teaching 2 year olds.

  6. Have fun: Make learning fun and enjoyable for toddlers by using songs, games, and other playful activities.
