Getting along with others is one of life's essential skills. Children develop these skills through living and interacting with their family and community.
Babies first begin to develop relationships inside the home – they learn to trust and communicate with their family. As they grow, and venture out of the home, they encounter many different people, contexts and places.
Authors Lyn Bower and Will Jones offer practical advice to guide you as you help children to develop an understanding of diversity, difference, belonging, and taking responsibility.
Topics covered include:
- Respect for others
- Learning about feelings
- Examples of positive statements
- Advice for when things go wrong
Everyday learning about getting along with others provides advice and ideas on how you can help children develop qualities that will enable them to understand and empathise with other people, and build strong, mutual relationships.
