We Can All Be Heroes

“Role-modelling is one of the most powerful tools that parents can use to transfer good manners and the proper values to our children. A good role model helps influence and shape children’s behaviour and decisions in relating to others as their world extends beyond the home, teachers and other persons in the community, including celebrities and characters on media.” - Dr Georgina Gozo-Oliver Child Psychiatrist

Superhero me

Because superheroes make great role models, here’s an activity to take role-modelling to a fun, new level! Get your child to perform 6 tasks, each of them delivering a value that the superhero version of themselves should possess. Once all the tasks are completed, your child will achieve superhero status, and you can reward him with a DIY cape and headband, or any reward of your choice.

We can all be heroes-play
Print out this activity poster, stick it on the wall, and guide your child along the tasks to superhero-dom!

Why Children Are Best Kept Outdoors

“If you’re the parent of a young child, you probably already know many of the benefits of outdoor play. Not only does it help strengthen motor skills, prevent obesity, and support creativity, but playing outside even promotes mental health and well-being.” – Dr Debbie Glasser, Preschoolers Need More Outdoor Play With Parents
