As
a parent we spend every ounce of our children's lives protecting them and
guiding them, so they can make good, safe choices. Whether
we are teaching them to not talk to strangers, about our private parts, or
looking both ways before crossing the street, we want to make sure we are giving
our children the tools to be successful in life. We are now living in a new
generation of safety and awareness, via the internet and technology, but as
parents in this new generation, we don't know what we don't
know.
Peekaboo
Beans mission is to provide ingredients for a playful life. We believe that play
is the backbone to learning and development. Playing teaches us about
boundaries, it evolves our imagination, it connects us socially, it builds our
bodies and expands our thinking. Peekaboo Beans is a stand for unstructured free
play so children can learn and grow into happy healthy human-beans. But as
technology becomes a driving force in our daily lives, it is sometimes difficult
to manage.
When
I heard Jesse speak, I hung onto every word, because as a parent in this new
world, I want the tools to help my beans grow and flourish. His talk was
enlightening and frightening all at the same time, but I felt like this provided
me with the education and understanding that I needed to help me make good
decisions for my family. Anything from how old should you be before you use a
cell phone to how you manage social media in your tweens life - it all creates
conversation.
I
am so happy that Jesse is going to come and speak to our group of mindful
parents and help provide ingredients for a playful life! Please DO NOT MISS this
opportunity to learn and grow as a parent!
In love and
play,
