Parenta Magazine February 2020
Last month, we took a look at the different ways children as young as toddlers can benefit from having quiet, reflective time and even yoga and meditation. The mental wellbeing of these young children in our care is of paramount importance and has been the subject of much news coverage in recent years. This month, Children’s Mental Health Week, running from 3-9 February highlights the increasing concern about children’s mental health which, according to statistics, has deteriorated over recent years. All the news stories, advice, and craft activities in your free Parenta magazine have been written to help you with the efficient running of your setting and to promote the health, happiness and wellbeing of the children in your care. Please feel free to share with friends, parents and colleagues.
