Book description
The ultimate guide for parents who dream of having a little less
chaos and a lot more time for the good things in life
Written by mother of five, Nicole Avery, this book shows harried
parents how, with just a bit of planning, family life can become
easier to manage, less stressful, and decidedly more fun. "Dream
on," you say? "I might as well try to herd cats as to get my
kids to follow a lot of arbitrary rules!" And Nicole would agree,
which is why Planning with Kids isn't like any other parenting
guide out there. It was inspired by Nicole's blog of the same name,
which, over the past three years, has garnered a huge audience of
likeminded parents who have achieved nothing short of miraculous
results following her advice. While other prescriptive guides
offer mums and dads cook-cutter solutions to the challenges of raising
kids, this handbook focuses on one simple, straightforward idea: by
implementing a few simple strategies for how you do things,
you'll make more time for you to be you and your kids to be kids.
You'll find strategies for streamlining and enhancing everything from
the routines of daily life, to family relationships, to budgeting and
finances, playtime and much more!
- Contains a full section on menus and cooking, including recipes,
supported online by a planning-with-family meal planner
- Divided into sections so that readers can dip-in and dip-out for
information as they need it as their family expands and grows
up!
Nicole Avery is the master organiser behind
