Here’s What We Learned So Far
The practical fostering info you came here for in the first place. And some advice from a novice parent that I’ll probably feel embarrassed about giving out when I have learned as much as you all probably already know: a calendar wasn’t too advanced for a 24-month old. It was helpful and alleviated stress for him. H e didn’t take 64 things to bed and need to take them out of bed with him when he knew what people were going to be part of his day. We used just a paper with 7 boxes and printed pictures to represent his normal activities and then taped them to the day in the order that they were going to happen. "Here's tomorrow, Wednesday, and you'll go to school and then see Ms. B and then see Mommy and Daddy. And after that, Mama is going to come get you and we will come back here." clothing reimbursements (how our county does clothing) are very slow and they are VERY picky about receipts being for exactly things that are obviously only for the child in car...
