September 2018

Welcome Fall!
We got our September Sibshop started by creating some calming glitter jars. 
All it takes is a mason jar, some distilled water and glitter glue.
 A little shake and voila!  You've got yourself this beauty.
We then took some time to practice some self soothing strategies using our glitter jars. We practiced some deep breathing while the glitter settled in our jars. Life isn't easy and we often need to take a minute to step away and collect ourselves.  A minute or two with a glitter jar can help one reset and face what's ahead.
 Our Sibshoppers loved navigating the laser maze we created for them in the hallway.  

 There was a lot of slipping & sliding, crouching & clambering and all sorts of contortionism as our kids carefully made their way through the maze.










 This fun game has been making its rounds on social media. I couldn't resist giving it a try and I am sure glad we did.  "Hula Hoop Showdown" was a hit!
 The Sibshoppers had a great time racing one another in this fast paced game of "Rock, Paper, Scissors."
 The "Wheel of Feelings" discussion provided an opportunity to share experiences, stories and feelings related to the sibling experience. Our Sibshoppers were able to connect with one another in their shared experience as siblings.
