In this podcast conversation, Anya and Jules talked with Sonia Mainstone-Cotton about everyday transitions, how educators and families can help very young children build resources to manage change, and why adults need to consider their own wellbeing and experiences and the impact they can have on children. They also discuss how much information to share with children at times of greater change, such as bereavement or changes in family life. Sonia begins the podcast by sharing her 'About Me' box as a way to introduce herself - which is what she does when she is meeting with children for the first time, and sharing things about herself with them.
