First Day of P4 😍🌱 Good luck to everyone starting school or going back to school today. 🎒 Don’t worry if your child doesn’t come home this week telling you stories about projects he’s been doing, it takes Oscar all evening to assimilate his experiences and he gets upset if I ask too soon. 〰️ @graceandblazeyoga shared a positive parenting tip recently. It said not to ask a million questions after school but to tell your child you missed them. This year I’m gonna give him the time he needs. ‘I missed you today and it’s so lovely to see you again.’ 😘

That’s it! The summer holiday has finished, the beach is empty and it’s time to pack the bag for school tomorrow. 🎒 This summer has been a rollercoaster but I’m very grateful to have had the last few weeks with this pair of beauties 😍😍 〰️ September always feels like a new chapter for me, even years after school terms affected my calendar. It feels like time to change or start a fresh project. I still love a new notepad too 😂 #stationaryaddict 〰️ My new chapter is going to be about routine, being present ❣️but most of all being super efficient and productive! 😊 What does your new chapter look like?

Oscar’s last casal this summer was the incredible @escoladelvent. Two weeks paddleboarding, kayaking and sailing plus swimming and beach play all run by Capitán the friendly pirate 🏴‍☠️ Thanks so much! We’ll be back next year! ☀️🏊‍♂️

Adaptation 🏫 〰️ Good luck to everyone starting school or nursery soon 😍 😘 This is Oscar before his first ever adaptation to nursery, he was 14 months old. I stayed with him an hour until it was time to leave. I said goodbye, he didn’t seem fussed but I was torn up inside. He’d just been with me until that day. I can still remember the feeling. He was starting the wonderful @brightbeginningsbcn which was all outside in Parc Ciutadella so I didn’t actually leave! I spied from distance! 〰️ I’m not going to tell you it was easy because it wasn’t. I cried a whole hour from behind the bush 😥🌴🌳 〰️ The tears were sad, proud, heartbroken, free, worried, relieved. On top of being desperate for a break I suddenly desperately missed him and had forgotten how to be alone. I was feeling ALL the feelings! 😊🙈❣️💔 〰️ My tips for nursery adaptation: 1. dont show any nerves or fears to your kids before and during adaptation. Try to be relaxed and excited. 2. Stay at school as long as you need until your kid starts to play and be interested. Don’t hang around to watch as they sense your nerves and run back to you! 3. When you leave, say goodbye quickly and calmly and chose one person to hand your kid to that will be there every day. 〰️ My tip for P3 adaptation, get in there and play with the toys. Don’t stand back and watch the nervous kids. It’ll relax your kid and the others to see parents playing. 〰️ Do you have any other tips for the first weeks of school or nursery?

Summer routine 🌅 〰️ Late mornings, late long lunches and very late evenings! We have never been closer to a traditional spanish routine! 〰️ How could this possibly work with early school mornings? 🙈

Gracia Festival 🎈🎊☂️ It’s the last day of the festival tomorrow! Make sure you see it! It was so good today, we arrived early to beat the crowds the boys ran through the streets excited and amazed! Our favourite street was definitely Hogwarts. Have you been? Which was your favourite?
