What can a child do when grandparents go home and suddenly Mama's rules feel different?
Hildy loves special visits with Mimi when she enjoys more games, extra bedtime stories, and different routines. When Mimi goes home, Hildy must return to Mama's everyday routines and finds herself wanting the special treatment to continue. Mimi teaches her that different people set different rules, and Hildy learns to stop, remember the rules that belong to Mama's house, and respond with gratitude instead of whining. Mimi's Strategy: Stop and remember that different people have different rules. What children will learn:- Understand that different homes, schools, and adults can have different rules.
- Handle transitions from special occasions back to everyday routines.
- Recognize the connection between rules and the setting where they apply.
- Practice gratitude and self-control when a special privilege ends.
Perfect for:
- Homeschool and public-school families with frequent visits from grandparents or other relatives.
- Homeschool and public-school educators discussing rules, routines, and transitions.
- Parents navigating post-visit disappointment and bedtime resistance.
- Grandparents who want to reinforce a loving relationship without undermining parents' rules. Part of the growing Mimi's Strategy series, an expanding collection of illustrated books by Linda Goudsmit that turn everyday childhood problems into opportunities to stop, think, and choose a successful strategy to solve each problem. Designed for ages 3-8, the series gives families and educators a warm, repeatable way to talk about responsibility, independence, competence, self-control, critical thinking, and family life. Learning to think strategically rather than react emotionally is a valuable skill that will empower any child throughout his or her life. Plus, I have yet to meet the child who would prefer a reprimand to a kiss. - Linda Goudsmit
