189: “Quiet Time” Tips for Families // Solo Episode

Instituting a daily Quiet Time is one of the BEST things I’ve done for my kids (and for me!). But I know it’s not always easy to do it, especially with strong-willed kiddos. I hope my three tips will help you to start this routine in your family!

– 3 Takeaways for Quiet Time –

  1. Remember how good quiet time is for your kids. It will help them learn how to do deep, creative, independent play.
  2. Set them up for success by making sure they have interesting and novel toys that inspire creative play and a way to track the time.
  3. Expect that you will have to train and teach your kids to do Quiet Time. Start with a very short timeframe, and work up from there.
