Parent Pause

Good enough holidays


Listen Later

Summary of Kim’s audio:I’ve been thinking about my childhood holidays, and the memories I truly cherish aren’t the big trips or constant activities. They’re the small, silly moments like toast in bed, walking in the dark, getting caught in the rain, playing on the floor with a parent who wasn’t rushing off.

Our kids don’t need wall-to-wall entertainment. They need us - the relaxed, spacious version - not the burnt-out one. Let’s give ourselves permission for slow days, even boredom. That’s often where the magic happens.

Good enough holidays are more than enough.
