Press Event #mammyimbacktoschool

The beginning of the new school year was the main topic of discussion at the pressevent organized by Power Health, in collaboration with the online pharmacy www.ofarmakopoiosmou.gr, and presented by Dr. Yuli Balikou.

The issues discussed mainly concerned the ways in which parents can help their children in the adaptation process, in view of the new school year. Also discussed was the catalytic role played by the ideal environment, the one that will enhance their resilience and encourage them to share and express their thoughts and feelings.

Extensive reference was made to the time needed for children to adapt to school life. This is why parents need to understand and respect the uniqueness and specificity of each child. It is therefore a given that the time and the way of adaptation differ, for some children it is easy, while for others it proves to be more difficult, so more effort is required.

Big changes, such as the beginning of the school year, can be intertwined with feelings of stress, anxiety, anger and frustration, as expressed through children's drawings.

The child needs reassurance from parents that they will always be emotionally present and available, with open ears and hearts, to listen to his/her anxieties, to share his/her experiences, to solve his/her questions and to reassure him/her that "everything" will be "fine".

Parents' deep conviction that life is a beautiful journey full of adventures and experiences, worth experiencing and enjoying, will help at all stages of a child's development and self-determination.

The journalists and mama bloggers who participated in the event were given a beautiful box with Haki the Turtle, the protagonist of the beautiful fairy tale and his first day at school, with children's products from Power Health, as well as toys offered by the online pharmacy www.ofarmakopoiosmou.gr
