Summary

Bringing up a family in the 21st century is nothing short of heroic! Life is unpredictable, complicated, and at times, hard. But that doesn't mean we can't have a red-hot go at creating the kind of family we want and supporting our children to be their best. As author and educator Lili-Ann Kriegler explains, the family can be viewed as a mettle foundry - a dynamic creative workshop, where we can use all the tools at our disposal to forge a resilient, cohesive and high functioning family unit. From the moment of birth, through the different growth stages to adulthood, education and communication are the anvil for life success. In this practical and inspiring book, you will learn the key areas of development for each age group - infants, toddlers, preschoolers, primary years' children, and the tweens and teens. You will discover how to best support communication, arrange the environment and choose the activities that will enhance the potential of your children. Roots and Wings is a philosophical vision of what parents and primary caregivers can do to create a family identity and culture to take on challenges and sustain a spirit of connection and joy
