๐Ÿ’š Do you know Conscious Kidsโ€™ Rule #1?

Rita from Conscious Kids New Zealand

Many of you that have sent your children to Conscious Kids over these last 7 years know our most important and unshakeable rule - HAVE FUN! If children break any of the other 4 Conscious Kids rules (as our poster), they will consequently break rule # 1.
Our Conscious Kids rules are not only applied in our Programmes, but they are also intrinsic to how we work as a team and relate as human beings.

A few days ago I watched this great Ted Talk from Catherine Price about the importance of adding FUN moments to our days and prioritising FUN in our lives.

She is one of ours!

As the week starts, we invite you to watch this TedTalk and rethink your concept of having FUN. www.ted.com......

Catherine says, (and we experience and share):

๐Ÿ‘‰ True Fun = Playfulness + Connection + Flow
๐Ÿ‘‰ Fun is a feeling, and it's not an activity
๐Ÿ‘‰ It's not just for kids
๐Ÿ‘‰ Fun is the secret to feeling alive
๐Ÿ‘‰ True fun produces this visceral sense of lightness and joy
๐Ÿ‘‰ Fun unites us.
๐Ÿ‘‰ Fun also makes us healthier.

At our programmes children are given the opportunity to FLOW (time + space + freedom), to be PLAYFUL (unstructured and child-led play) and to CONNECT (with themselves, others, and the natural environment) = REAL FUN!

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesnโ€™t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
