Did you know that the Danish are considered the happiest people on earth? I recently read a book called The Danish Way of Parenting written by an American mom and a Danish family therapist.  It was really interesting to see the difference in parenting styles and technique from an American perspective.  They use the acronym PARENT to discuss the parenting techniques of the Danish people and today we're discussing each of those techniques shared in the book.

This week’s Product That Makes Parenting Stink Less is a childhood favorite book: The Jolly Postman or Other People's Letters.  This super cute book is really fun because some of the pages are made into envelopes with letters you can pull out of the page.  It's a fun and unique way to read a story to your kids. And it takes place in a Fairy Tale land where your children will recognize characters like Goldilocks, the gingerbread man, and Jack and the beanstalk.
