Happy reading!

A webinar highlight that the Happy Families team have shared this week comes from a past webinar called ‘Riding the Rollercoaster and can be found on this link: Riding the Rollercoaster | Happy Families Schools

Juggling the task of raising a family with the rest of life often feels impossible. It’s stressful… it’s taxing.

There’s already enough to do with work, the house, the kids’ routine, extra-curricular activities, personal interests, and a crowded calendar. But once we throw in the stress that comes from tired or grumpy children, a stressed or absent partner, and the day-to-day emotions of a roller coaster life, it can feel overwhelming.

In this webinar, Dr Justin Coulson will step out simple parenting, family, and life hacks (and science that supports them) to help you reduce, simplify, stay sane, be consistent, and raise a flourishing family. You’ll hear ten practical, “real”, do-able strategies designed to make family life simpler, smoother, and happier.
