Check out this little video about being present, here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Every child needs a trusting relationship with at least one dependable adult in their lives, so they can grow and develop in a healthy way as family and community members, friends, thinkers, and discover their connections to the natural environment. You don\u2019t have to be a childcare expert \u2013 just being present to provide love, safety, security, joy, and paying attention to them is enough.<\/p>\n I highly recommend following feelingsfirst.ca<\/b> on social media \u2013 choose what\u2019s best for you!<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/span>Instagram<\/b>: @feelingsfirst.ca<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/span>Facebook<\/b>: @feelingsfirst.ca<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/span>Twitter<\/b>: @feelingsfirst.ca<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/span>YouTube<\/b>: Feelings First\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n LinkedIn<\/b>: Feelings First\u00a0\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n It\u2019s really feeling like summer these days!
