Mama w Bojówkach: listopada 2012
http://mamawbojowkach.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Blog o macierzyństwie i nie tylko, z lekką dozą humoru ;). Sobota, 24 listopada 2012. Pewne dla wielu jest to, że mama zawsze ma czas. Zwłaszcza mama - kurka domowa. Bo przecież "siedzi z dzieckiem w domu" całe dnie, więc "nic nie robi", w związku z tym można odwiedzać, dzwonić czy w inny sposób naruszać jej i malucha przestrzeń, bez zapowiedzi, bo tak, bo przecież "jest w domu" a przyda jej się "kontakt z ludźmi", więc w czym ona widzi problem?

Mama w Bojówkach: września 2012
http://mamawbojowkach.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Blog o macierzyństwie i nie tylko, z lekką dozą humoru ;). Czwartek, 27 września 2012. Pęd do samodzielności, epizod trzeci - rzecz o naśladownictwie. Dzieci, jak wiadomo, najszybciej uczą się naśladując dorosłych. Podpatrują i powtarzają po rodzicach ubieranie się, jedzenie, picie i co tam jeszcze uznają za stosowne sobie przyswoić. Czasem wywołują nowym repertuarem umiejętności rodzicielską dumę, niekiedy lekkie oszołomienie, a nieraz mieszankę jednego i drugiego. Udostępnij w usłudze Twitter. Synek w ...

February 26, 2015. June 19, 2015. Over the past couple of years, as parents of older kids discussed preschool, my eyes would glaze over. We have time, and we won’t be living in the United States then anyway,. I thought to myself. I desperately hoped we wouldn’t still be here to have to make the preschool decision. Do we send our three and a half year old to a private international preschool that would dramatically boost his language and social skills, yet set us back a mere $14k per year? Much like stayi...

“They’re gonna hate you for it” | Third Culture Mama
http://www.thirdculturemama.com/theyre-gonna-hate-you-for-it
They’re gonna hate you for it. July 16, 2015. July 17, 2015. I have been grateful for so many encouraging comments and emails about traveling with small kids, multilingualism, and cross-cultural living on social media. Then, almost out of nowhere, this one popped up on my Instagram feed. Still, I had to check my motives against what this person was telling me. Are my children really confident in who they are? Do they need to feel a sense of belonging to a country or culture? Letting them sing with the Ch...

Beautiful multicultural books for children. March 3, 2015. June 19, 2015. Take a quick tour of the children’s classics in Anglo-Saxon literature and you will see a glaring predominance of Caucasian protagonists. I don’t feel it is wrong to feature white children in books. But I do think that the glaring absence of engaging stories featuring other ethnicities reflects quite a bit of our deep cultural prejudice. Think about award-winning classics like The Little Engine That Could. When speaking to my libra...

July 2, 2015. July 2, 2015. We also made a bucket list of last things we wanted to do in the country.
