Homework
Your homework challenge for the next few weeks is to learn to put your coast on by yourselves. Grown ups, please support your children in learning how to put their coast on by themselves, including how to pull the sleeves from inside out. This is a life skill and will be super helpful for their independence and confidence!
Once you've mastered this, please support your child in learning to do their zips up independently!
