I have been surprised by how much I've learned from Hellobee, and how much we've changed the way we parent our kids as a result!
I guess without this site, I wouldn't really be actively researching and reading about parenting... but because of it, I'm always reading about parenting. Bee and I are always talking about parenting too, which helps a lot.
Here are some of the ways it's changed the way we parent our kids:
* We learned about the importance of sensory play from Mrs. Hide & Seek, and Charlie now paints and does activities almost every day!
* I make a big effort to read a few books a day to Charlie. I didn't realize how early you could start reading to the kids!
* I am much more proactive about using discipline and positive parenting, after reading a number of books about it. I feel like we've turned a corner with Charlie and he's becoming less spoiled, and that definitely would not have happened without Hellobee.
* I am taking better care of Charlie's teeth, after being inspired by so many of you.
I'm sure there are even more things we've learned. Thank you to everyone on Hellobee for helping us raise our kids!!
Is Hellobee changing the way you parent your kids at all? If so, I'd love to hear more so I can steal those ideas for our kids too haha!
But it also is good to see how other parenting styles work in action. The BLW posts recently have made me try and give more finger foods. She gets some anyways but it's a bit frustrating that most of it gets tossed out of her seat or fed to the dogs when she feeds herself but after reading the blog and posts on here we decided self-feeding is probably a good skill for regular practice if I still do heart my purees.
