Half-term comes around in a heartbeat. I see it as a brushdown between Christmas and Easter.
Whether it lasts one day or two, taking a break can make a world of difference. A long walk, a good classic film, and a shared ‘snackie’ tea—these simple moments don’t need to be extravagant, but they leave a lasting impression when you reflect on your childhood.
As I explore various co-parenting plans with clients and engage in regular conversations with children, I spend much of the school holidays brainstorming creative ways to spend time together.
While the foundation of co-parenting remains consistent, every situation is unique. Creative thinking within a parenting plan can determine its success or failure.
Successful co-parenting requires effort. The most significant rewards often come from the hard work involved because, after all, you only get one chance at being a parent.
