Many parents feel pressured to “train” babies and young children to sleep, but kids don’t need to be trained to sleep, they’re built to sleep. Sleep issues arise when parents (with the best of intentions) over-help or “helicopter parent” at night—overshadowing their baby’s innate biological ability to sleep well. In The Happy Sleeper, child sleep experts Heather Turgeon and Julie Wright show parents how to be sensitive and nurturing, but also clear and structured so that babies and young children develop the self-soothing skills they need to: • Fall asleep independently • Sleep through the night • Take healthy naps • Grow into natural, optimal sleep patterns for day and night The Happy Sleeper is a research-based guide to helping children do what comes naturally—sleep through the night. The Happy Sleeper features a foreword by neuropsychiatrist and popular parenting expert Dr. Daniel Siegel, author of Parenting from the Inside Out and the New York Times bestseller Brainstorm.

There are two major camps on getting children to sleep through the night. These methods are hotly debated and their oppositional forces can look like a battle scene from Game of Thrones. Arrows fly across internet camps and it all feels a bit life threatening. 1.Cry it out! - Deal breaker for many parents. 2.Do Whatever It Takes, All Day and All Night Long: To get your child the F to sleep. - Deal breaker for those of us who actually need real sleep to function in the real world. There are other more “gentle” approaches. These offer the much coveted “NO Cry” result.No cry - sorry to report - is Fantasy Island. The no cry unicorn baby is, for most of us, a mythological creature. Will there be crying? Probably. Can you respond and offer support? Absolutely. Is it a prescriptive timed, clock approach? No. You are the expert on your child. I teach a method that helps to hone your intuition on what cries need attending to and what cries are the sound of self soothing. You do not have to leave your child alone to “cry-it-out” in order to learn the skills of autonomous sleep. The Compassionate Sleep Solution is a gentle, honest and realistic approach. Because in reality our children rarely have a gentle reaction to our ideas of what is best for them.Eileen Henry is one of the original sleep consultants in the U.S. After working with thousands of families for almost two decades she has developed the best method for dealing with a baby’s very natural process of crying as well as the unnatural process of a parent having to listen to it. The Compassionate Sleep Solution will guide you through the process and show you the way to the following reality.Sleep is a developmental skill that all babies and toddlers can learn. Since crying can be a part of that reality, my method will teach you how to calm the cry.

The Satter Division of Responsibility in Feeding

When you follow the Satter Division of Responsibility in Feeding (sDOR), your child will become Eating Competent. sDOR encourages you to take leadership with the what, when, and where of feedingand let your child determine how much and whether to eatof what you provide. sDOR applies at every stage in your child's growing-up years, from infancy through the early years through adolescence. sDOR says to feed your baby on demand, letting him determine the timing and tempo of feeding. As he develops and becomes more regular in his eating patterns, you gradually take on responsibility for when and where to feed. Most children are ready to join in with the meals-plus-snacks routine of family meals by the end of the first year or the beginning of the second year. After that, your job is to maintain the structure of family meals and sit-down snacks throughout your child's growing-up years. When you do your jobs with feeding, your child will do his with eating.

Your jobs with feeding are to . . .

Choose and prepare the food.

Provide regular meals and snacks.

Make eating times pleasant.

Step-by-step, show your child by example how to behave at family mealtime.

Be considerate of your child's lack of food experience without catering to likes and dislikes.

Not let your child have food or beverages (except for water) between meal and snack times.

Let your child grow into the body that is right for him.

Part of your feeding job is to trust your child to . . .

Eat.

Eat the amount he needs.

Learn to eat the food you enjoy.

Grow predictably in the way that is right for him.

Learn to behave well at mealtime.

Satter Division of Responsibility in Feeding Infants

When you feed your infant, you are responsible for what they are offered to eat: Whether they will be breast- or formula fed. They are responsible for everything else: how much, how fast, how frequently.

Your responsibilities

Choose breast or formula feeding.

Help your infant be calm and organized.

Pay attention to and respect their sleeping, waking, and feeding cues.

Feed smoothly, paying attention to their cues about timing, tempo, frequency, and amounts.

Satter Division of Responsibility in Feeding: solids introduction to family food

The Satter Division of Responsibility for introducing your older baby to solid foods is based on what they can do, not how old they are. That is, go by their developmental maturity, not their age. Based on developmental, guide your baby's transition from nipple feeding through semi-solids, then thick-and-lumpy food, and finally to finger food at your family meals.

You are still responsible for what, and you are becoming responsible for when and where yourchild is fed.

Your child is still and always responsible for how much and whether they eat the foods you offer.

Satter Division of Responsibility in feeding toddlers through adolescents

You are responsible for what, when, and where.

Your child is responsible for how much and whether.

Be faithful with enjoyable family meals and snacks

Structured meals and sit-down snacks are the backbone of the Satter Division of Responsibility in Feeding from the time your child first joins you at family meals until they leave home. To keep up all the work, you have to enjoy your food. Be considerate without catering with meal planning, but, for the most part, prepare what you enjoy. Even if you worry that your food isn't very "healthy," keep in mind that the least healthy meal is tons better than no meal at all! Studies show that family meals are tremendously important. Adults who have regular meals eat better and healthier, no matter their weight. Children and teens who have family meals eat better, feel better about themselves, get along better with other people, and do better in school. They are less likely to gain more weight than is right for them, abuse drugs, smoke, and have sex. In fact, family meals have more to do with raising healthy, happy children than family income, whether the child has one or two parents living in the home, after-school activities, tutors, or church. As children move through the teen years, families are more likely to eat on the run than have meals together. But hang in there! Family meals are important! Expect your teenager to show up for family meals on time and hungry.

Trust your child to eat

Your child wants to eat and they want to grow up to eat the food you eat. Beyond doing your part with structured, sit-down family meals and snacks, you don't have to do anything to get it to happen. Just be there and enjoy your own food. Keep in mind that grownup food is all new to your child, and they have a lot to learn. For them, it is like any other skill such as reading or bike riding - they learn it bit by bit, at their own pace, because they want to, not because you make them. They will eat like a child: some days a lot, other days not so much, only one or two foods and not everything at a meal. What they eat one day they ignore the other. Don't try to pressure your child in any way to eat certain amounts or types of food. Don't try to get them to eat new food. Sooner or later (maybe even months or years later) they will eat almost everything you eat.

Prevent and solve feeding problems

To prevent feeding problems, follow the Satter Division of Responsibility in Feeding from birth. To solve feeding problems, establish the Satter Division of Responsibility in Feeding that is appropriate for your child's stage in development. Whether your child is picky, eats too much or too little, or is too fat or too thin, the solution is the same: do your jobs with feeding and let your child do their jobs with eating. Children who are allowed to eat on the run eat poorly, are picky, and have trouble growing consistently. They may become fatter or thinner than is right for them. Children who aren't sure when they will get to eat and whether they will get enough worry about food and eat a lot when they can. Children who are pressured to eat certain amounts and types of food get turned off to those foods and avoid them when they can.

Help without harming with your child's weight

As long as your child's growth is consistent, it is normal for her, even if it is above the 85th or 95th percentile cutoff points defined by policy makers as constituting child "overweight" or "obesity." There is a problem if they are growing faster than is right for them: If they suddenly go up on their growth curve. But even then, dieting is not the answer. Instead, think through the Satter Division of Responsibility in Feeding: Are you doing your jobs with feeding and letting your child do theirs with eating? Are you restricting your child, or trying to get them to eat more of "slimming" foods? Can you stop interfering with what and how much they eat and, instead, provide them with regular meals and snacks and, at those times, let them eat what and as much as they want from what you provide? At first they will likely eat more than usual, but then their eating will settle down and they will eat like other children: a lot sometimes, not so much another. Only time will tell whether their weight remains on the same growth curve or drifts downward to follow a lower curve. This is normal weight for them, and you must accept it, feel good about the body they have, and let them do the same. If you try to slim them down, or if they try to slim, themselves, down, the risk is very high that they will get fatter, not thinner, and they will feel miserable about their weight. For guidance, read Your Child's Weight: Helping without Harming.

Baby Table Manners (the RIE® approach to eating) — (Article)

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
I am continually amazed by how capable babies are. Sometimes words, however descriptive (even mine!), can't do them justice. So, I've attached a video from one of my classes to this post to visually demonstrate. Please have a look ( no actors were hired).

I was stunned to learn years ago that once a baby is able to sit securely on her own (usually 8 to 12 months old), she can actually sit down to eat at her own little table. High chairs are certainly functional and have been around for hundreds of years, but believe it or not, it is easier to feed a baby at a small table. And babies love the independence - their feet touch the floor, they can sit while hungry, and leave the table as soon as they are done.

Ditching the highchair may sound like an overwhelming prospect, and I am not suggesting parents dump it entirely. But I do recommend giving the small table a try, first only for snack time. Then, if the baby does not play by the rules, you can revert to the high chair and know he has not missed a whole meal. Eventually, you may see the benefit of using a baby-size table for all his meals.

Here are the suggested rules for using a small table:

1) The baby must sit while eating. This is a wonderful first limit for babies, and they will enjoy testing it...and testing it...and testing it. (Please see video.) But they do get the concept almost immediately.

2) If the baby leaves the table, he is signaling that he is finished, and we put the food away. This may take a few tries to sink in, and we give the babies several chances at this when we introduce snacks in the RIE parenting classes. But parents should adhere to this rule right away at home to make it as clear as possible. It is helpful to give a warning, "Next time you leave the table I will put the food away," and then follow through. This is not cruel or abusive! Children quickly learn they have a choice, and when they are truly hungry they stay.

3) Food is simply offered. A baby is never forced or coaxed to eat ("here comes the airplane...") Babies do not have to even come to the table if they are not hungry, or if the food is not ready yet.

Compare this to the highchair experience, where a baby is strapped in while waiting for his food, and then often signals he is finished by dropping food on the floor or throwing it. When babies eat at small tables they seldom, if ever, throw food.

Children benefit in many ways with this approach to eating. They are invited to be active participants in mealtime, instead of a captive audience. They are allowed to decide how much they will eat, and how long they will spend at the table, which gives them the small sense of control that burgeoning toddlers crave. Mealtime is more pleasure and less chore for parents too.

Participation in a predictable ritual brings a sense of security. The baby anticipates and relishes in each step: wiping his hands with a wet washcloth, choosing a bib, practicing with a spoon, and wiping off the table afterwards.

Parents are teaching good manners, safety, and focus. A toddler who sits to eat is less likely to choke than one who is followed around with snacks while he plays at the park. And he is learning to do one thing at a time. He focuses on the food and the company he's with until he is finished eating.

In the parent/infant classes we begin with bananas, and the babies help peel them. When the children are a few months older we offer small glasses (yes, glasses), although plastic works fine, too, and water. The key is to put just a sip's worth of water in the glass, so it doesn't matter if they spill it while they are learning. Sippy Cups can be skipped altogether.

Eventually, the children pour the water themselves using small pitchers or measuring cups. Needless to say, they really get into the pouring part. Most of us would not think an 18 month-old capable of pouring water into his glass. But with practice, a toddler learns this skill quickly and takes great pride in his accomplishments.

Every parent would adopt this approach to feeding a baby if they knew how much easier, safer and more enjoyable mealtime could become. Do try this at home.

(Many of you have asked how to find a baby-sized table. Breakfast-in-bed trays like THESE work wonderfully.)

A Creative Alternative to Baby TV Time — (Article)

The last thing you're going to catch me doing is provoking parental guilt. So, I'm going to assume you've heard all about the hazards of TV for infants and toddlers. It doesn't surprise me that parents ignore the research (and the ) and turn on the TV for children under 2 anyway. How can we blame a mom or dad for wanting to read a whole sentence in the newspaper, cook dinner, talk on the phone uninterrupted, have a few minutes of privacy in the bathroom, or just get a few well-deserved moments of peace? American Academy of Pediatrics advisory

It baffles me that the experts give warnings and criticisms, but nobody offers parents viable alternatives to using TV as a babysitter. Thank you very much American Academy of Pediatrics, ASHA (American Speech-Language-Hearing-Association) and many others, but telling us it's wiser to spend time talking to our babies, reading, singing and playing peek-a-boo isn't addressing our issue. Most of us are well aware that we need to spend lots of time and energy interacting with our babies physically and socially. We also need a BREAK once in awhile. It's a little insulting to me when experts say, "no, no, NO!" and then give advice that ignores the reason most parents use TV in the first place.

The good news is that there is another option, and it addresses the needs of both parent and child. Babies thrive, parents can take breaks, and when we are with our child we get to "do less and enjoy more." It is simple enough that I was able to do it with three children (and I'm no martyr or genius), and I will never understand (apart from the fact there's no money to be made) why it is such a well guarded secret.

The answer: instilling in our babies the joyful habit of self-directed play, adopting the lifestyle recommended by pediatrician Emmi Pikler and infant specialist Magda Gerber.

The trap parents fall into is the vicious cycle of using screen time to occupy a baby. That creates the very same problem we are using TV to solve - a child who does not entertain himself. Babies who spend time 'watching' unlearn what they are born ready and eager to do - what parents need them to do - daydream, explore, experiment, create play independently.

Although initiating thoughts and activities comes naturally to infants, extended periods of independent playtime don't happen unless we cultivate them. This means establishing one or two safe, enclosed play areas for babies ( outdoors is wonderful if possible), and then encouraging them to routinely spend their "alert time" (between sleep, feedings and diaper changes) in these soon familiar environments. We can watch and enjoy our babies, "floor sit" and eventually leave them to work or relax nearby, while they spend time learning from the safe objects and toys they choose. In my experience, these rooms (or sections of rooms) are treasured by children way beyond the age they need them for safety. A child's play space becomes the comfortable, therapeutic, and imaginative place where dreams are born.

Eventually, most of us will introduce our children to movies and TV. My advice: wait as long as you can, and then use it sparingly. Personally, one reason I avoided the option of TV time was the added pressure of trying to control it (to the already long list of toddler power struggles). It worked better for me to avoid it entirely until after the age of 3.

Exhaust the use of crayons, blocks, dolls and dollhouses, puzzles, shape sorters, play-doh, balls, books, wheel toys, sidewalk chalk (one of the best inventions ever), Legos, etc., before resorting to movies and TV. When children who are adept at occupying themselves seem bored, they are often on the verge of an idea for a new activity. Sometimes they need more of our attention, or a nap.

If you need entertainment for an afternoon lull and music isn't engaging enough, try audio books or children's podcasts before considering TV or videos. There is usually a good selection of audio CDs at the library. They don't interfere with a child's listening and learning skills the way TV does. They stimulate imagination rather than zoning a child out, and they aren't as disturbing or scary as movies. The ones that come with books are great, too, and you can show your child how to turn the page when they hear the "ding".

If we can postpone the use of TV (or break the habit in the early years), our child has opportunities to develop the neural pathways needed to be a good listener and learner, gross and fine motor skills, problem solving abilities, creativity and a strong sense of self.

We are all bound to make many parenting mistakes, but the love of inner-directed play, creative thought and solitude will be lifelong gifts that neither you nor your child will ever regret.

Please enjoy this inspirational video of 15 month old Joey demonstrating self-reliance, persistance, focus, ingenuity, inner-directedness and much more - SELF-DIRECTED, INDEPENDENT PLAY AT ITS BEST.

I share much more about fostering creative, independent play in Elevating Child Care: A Guide to Respectful Parenting and I share my gift ideas for encouraging self-directed play HERE.

Dr. Jane Healy's books Endangered Minds and Your Child's Growing Mind: Brain Development and Learning From Birth to Adolescence examine in detail the effects of TV and video use on brain development.

Please feel free to share your frustrations and successes with the TV issue!

"Human beings were never born to read," writes Tufts University cognitive neuroscientist and child development expert Maryanne Wolf. Reading is a human invention that reflects how the brain rearranges itself to learn something new. In this ambitious, provocative book, Wolf chronicles the remarkable journey of the reading brain not only over the past five thousand years, since writing began, but also over the course of a single child's life, showing in the process why children with dyslexia have reading difficulties and singular gifts.

Lively, erudite, and rich with examples, Proust and the Squid asserts that the brain that examined the tiny clay tablets of the Sumerians was a very different brain from the one that is immersed in today's technology-driven literacy. The potential transformations in this changed reading brain, Wolf argues, have profound implications for every child and for the intellectual development of our species.
