Parenting.
Every parent want to know if they are doing it right. But, every parent and
every child is different. The Christian Mama’s Guide to Parenting a
Toddler is not just another parenting book. It is a book that recognizes
and understands there are no fix-all solutions for parenting, but through love,
prayer and humor, even the terrible twos can be an enjoyable experience.
As the
parent of a two year old, I enjoyed this book for many reasons. It made me
laugh and assured me that my child is not abnormal and I am not the only parent
who struggles with these issues. The chapters are short and sweet. Instead of
providing a “do this and then this result will follow” type of book, the author
give several lists of suggestions about things that might help in a given
situation. The topics covered ranged from food battles to potty training,
tantrums to taking care of yourself. There is even a chapter for dads and
advice on getting ready for siblings to enter the picture.
Overall,
this was a fun and realistic look at parenting. And being written by a
Christian woman who is a mom of three, you know the stories she tells and
advice she gives come from first experience. I certainly came away with a few
different things to try with my two year old.
I was
given a copy for review by Book Sneeze. All opinions are my own. I was not
required to wrie a positive review.
