Hi Janet,
I am just wondering if you have any advice on how I can get my 8 month old baby to play independently.  I have been following the Dr. Sears Attachment Parenting philosophy pretty rigidly since [...] <a href="http://www.janetlansbury.com/2010/07/problems-with-attachment-parenting-note-from-a-mum/">Read More</a>]]></description>

This is my kind of silliness. These family games are creative, simple, and spontaneous. They need almost no preparation and only minimal equipment, just household stuff. They are unplugged, screen-free, non-board games that un-bore children, and they are all about playing rather than producing something, or winning and losing. Best of all, they don’t cause [...] <a href="http://www.janetlansbury.com/2010/06/games-my-kids-beg-me-to-play/">Read More</a>]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A recent post, Is Your Baby A Bully? Genius? Shy? Why We Should Lose Labels, stirred up unexpected controversy.
