Watch this quick explanation of the discoveries of parenting science.

Build the skills for a good life.

Every year, serious psychological distress among young adults has been rising. 70% of teens say that "anxiety and depression is a major problem" among their peers.

But, the most effective protection for kids is a connected relationship with a parent or caregiver. The Postcards show you how to create this kind of relationship. Help your child build:

  • Emotional intelligence
  • Social skills
  • Resilience
  • Executive functioning
  • Positive mindset

The practice of reflecting back (with self-compassion) on how events went, how you felt about them, and what you hope for going forward, is essential to self-esteem and helps make better choices.

When kids are young, our culture tends to think of children as receivers of gifts. But kids also get enormous benefits from giving gifts, and holidays are a wonderful time to practice generosity and giving.

For many parents, school vacations feel like a time to "get through." But it is possible to truly appreciate the long stretches of time with your children, in the moment as they're happening.

Positive body image is important for teens' self-esteem and confidence, but this can be a very fraught in our culture. How you speak and behave at home can help protect them.

No one will say traveling with young kids is easy. Toddlers thrive on routine, and both vacations and travel stray from these familiar rhythms. However, connection can help!

The toddler years are when many sensory sensitivities come to light. In a world filled with new sensations, it can quickly get overwhelming.

While consumerism often takes center stage at this time, it diminishes joy for children. Focus instead on savoring and connection.

While consumerism often takes center stage at this time, it diminishes joy for children - and all of us. Focus instead on savoring and connection.

While consumerism often takes center stage at this time, it diminishes joy for adolescents - and all of us. Focus instead on savoring and connection.
