With a few simple, joyful routines at home, you can give your child the foundation for early writing and reading in a way that feels natural and stress-free.

Potty Training Without the Power Struggle: A Guide for Home and School

Toilet learning is one of childhood’s biggest steps toward independence—and one of parenting’s biggest stress points. The good news? It does not have to be a daily battle. At Guidepost, we call it toilet learning because it is about more than just training a child to use the toilet. It is about helping them build confidence, autonomy, and trust in their own body. With clear routines, calm support, and consistency between home and school, the process becomes less overwhelming and far more empowering for your child.

Morning Routines for Kids: How to End the Daily Battles

Does your morning look something like this? You’re trying to get out the door, but your child refuses to get dressed. They’re melting down about which shoes to wear. They want to bring their giant stuffed animal to school. Meanwhile, the clock is ticking, and you’re already late for work. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Mornings with toddlers and preschoolers can feel like the toughest part of the day. But there’s good news: resistance in the morning is not a sign that your child is “difficult” or that you’re doing something wrong. It’s a natural part of development—and with the right structures, mornings really can become calmer and smoother.
