FloridaFamilyFunTravel.com I remember walking down the seemingly endless aisles of parental advice books when I was pregnant with my first child. My head swimming, I purchased a huge stack of books in hope that at least one of them would give me the answers I knew I would need after my baby arrived. When my baby was born a few months later, I had plenty of advice for all the newborn stuff – and thanks to the help of my family, friends and countless hours of reading, I did a pretty good job as a first-time mom... And then in the blink of an eye, my tiny little baby grew into a kid. So what happens after the baby phase is over? What happens when your little one is in that “middle stage” where they are beginning to explore their own independence yet still require so much of your time and attention? When they start to spread their little wings and begin kindergarten, when they become a big brother/big sister, when they have endless questions and big, scary feelings that they need help sorting through? Early Childhood educator & preschool owner Christine Kyriakakos Martin has spent over 40 years helping parents with the every-day challenges they face raising their young children. As a mother herself, she understands how amazing yet hard parenting can be - which is why she decided to write a book giving parents everywhere her practical tips & advice so they can help their children feel calm, secure and confident no matter what challenges arise each day! In You've Got This! Keys to Effective Parenting for the Early Years, Christine Kyriakakos Martin gives advice on some of the most pressing issues and questions brought up by parents during her 40+ years in early childhood education. In each topic of the book, parents are given practical tips, ways to apply the information within their own home, and encouraging quotes from individuals from a multitude of backgrounds such as teachers, education specialists, parents, grandparents and successful professionals. As Christine Kyriakakos Martin says in the book, "I know you can do this! Use the tools in this book to take a ride through the beautiful journey parenting can be. It's a ride that you take with the best possible passengers...your children." In exchange for our review, we were given a copy of Christine Kyriakakos Martin’s book You’ve Got This! Keys to Effective Parenting for the Early Years. Scroll down to read what we loved about this book and where you can purchase a copy! What we loved about You’ve Got This!
