last night I was watching Dragons Den on TV and a would-be entrepreneur was showing her baby clothes range worn by mothers and carers to stimulate and interact with the baby.
We seem to have moved a long way from the idea of putting the baby out in the garden in the pram and leaving it alone for a long time to a beleif that constant stimualtion is needed for young children to develop.
Toys are getting bigger, brighter and noisier but is this what babies need all the time. I beleive strongly that babies need some down time (just like the rest of us) just to be quiet and to be. This is crucial to their development too. Our modern world is full of stimultion - let's moderate its impact on the very young.
Coincidentally yesterday I was adding all the combination Indigo essences to our online Health shop. They can safely be used with young babies as well as older children to help them be happier, calmer and more at peace with themselves and their world. isn't that what we ant for them and for ourselves?
