Summary
Review Excerpts
"Brilliant, wise, informative, innovative, entertaining, and urgently needed . . . a doable plan for providing the kind of childhood kids desperately need today!" ---Edward M. Hallowell, M.D., author of The Childhood Roots of Adult Happines
"Though simplicity parenting may seem a stretch for some, others will find that Payne’s program for restoring creative play, order and balance is long overdue." ---Publishers Weekly
"This book is a wake-call for all of us who have misjudged what children need and can handle." ---Steve Biddulph, author of The Secret of Happy Children
Today's busier, faster society is waging an undeclared war on childhood.
With too much stuff, too many choices, and too little time, children
can become anxious, have trouble with friends and school, or even be
diagnosed with behavioral problems. Now internationally renowned family
consultant Kim John Payne helps parents reclaim for their children the
space and freedom that all kids need for their attention to deepen and their individuality to flourish. Simplicity Parenting offers inspiration, ideas, and a blueprint for change:
•
Streamline your home environment. Reduce the amount of toys, books, and
clutter—as well as the lights, sounds, and general sensory overload.
•
Establish rhythms and rituals. Discover ways to ease daily tensions,
create battle-free mealtimes and bedtimes, and tell if your child is
overwhelmed.
• Schedule a break in the schedule. Establish intervals of calm and connection in your child's daily torrent of constant doing.
• Scale back on media and parental involvement. Manage your children's "screen time" to limit the endless deluge of information and stimulation.
A manifesto for protecting the grace of childhood, Simplicity Parenting is an eloquent guide to bringing new rhythms to bear on the lifelong art of raising children.
