Why not listen to some of Oliver Jeffers stories. It’s been a trip down memory lane for my boys and me. Remembering our star birthday party based on “How to catch a Star”. “Stuck” always made my boys laugh… they always wanted to try the experiment out! And who wouldn’t want to get smarter by eating books. I certainly need to eat a few books before Monday’s home schooling begins!

As we all try to adjust to our new “normal” do remember the most important thing we can do is share time with our children. It’s a scary time for ALL of us.

This picture was inspired by STUCK and was drawn during our first at home art lesson. It is a reminder to all my families with children who use symbols, communication books or devices don’t leave them STUCK on a shelf or in a tree! Remember communication happens all day everyday so make sure your child has access to their “voice” throughout the day.

We will continue to listen each night to Oliver as he shares his books even if it does make me feel a little home sick and sad that we won’t be back home in Belfast for Easter 🐣.

Take Care
