Book Reviews of Playful Parenting
Book Review: Best Parenting Book Ever
Summary: 5 Stars
I've read lots of books on parenting, and if I had to recommend just one book to anybody it would be this one. I have it on paper and on my kindle, so I can access it anytime.
I have a 2.5 years old son and since I read this book our relationship has improved so much that is unbelievable. We are way closer now and he is a much happier joyful kid, and so am I!!
Book Review: Best Parenting Book I've Read
Summary: 5 Stars
I've read so many parenting books - looking for something that my heart agrees with and something that provides practical parenting advice - this does both. I love it and highly recommend it!Book Review: Best parenting book I have, and I have about 20
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is wonderful! This is the first parenting book I've read that actually increased the joy in the house. I've been having more fun than I thought possible with my one very easy and one tempermental child.
The book contains really specific suggestions, like what to do in uncomfortable play situations such as when your child points his pretend gun at you. (tell him it's a love gun and it makes you fall in love with him).
Also, the book empathizes with the difficulty for a serious minded adult when it comes to being silly, and provides needed encouragement for being silly.
I have bought probably 20 books on parenting thru amazon, but I've never been tempted to review one before. usually they just aren't worth talking about. Not bad books, just not helpful for our difficult situation.
Now that mommy is silly, the six year old is soo much happier. And it seems to be working. We are more connected, and as a result the tempermental one is calmer.
Book Review: Can't Stop Reading
Summary: 5 Stars
I've read many parenting books. I've haven't finish this one yet because I'm reading every chapter at least 2 times. It's giving me another ideas (Very good ideas) to connect and know my children. I follow some of its sugestions and worked for me. I really recommend it.Book Review: Children need us to play!
Summary: 5 Stars
So many of us have become too caught up in our busy lives to remember that children need to play. This book includes great recommendations and strategies for re-connecting with our children through play. So far, it is helping us with our 4 and 1 year olds--we are finding that using a playful approach is helping us feel better about our relationships with our children.
