Daycare teacher
Okay, I've asked two people and they both answered differently. As a parent, family member, etc would you rather get handprint art from your 2-3 year old child? Or would you rather something else they made, like scribbles or like messy paint they created on their own with help from a teacher for "finishing touches"

I'm a daycare teacher too and would like to know what parents prefer
Handprint from my 2-3 yo...
Both but the handprints are nice for special occasions/holidays
Idk anything I get from my kid I would treasure. š„°
At our nursery they also do printing with different objects and collages. They do hand prints for special occasions which I find cute, but I wouldnāt like one every week because I donāt think heās getting a lot out of it. I donāt see the point of getting my sonās scribbles though as I have too many of them at home (unless itās something special). I honestly admire their creativity at nursery, they do so many different things! I like that heās experimenting with different ways to paint and be creative and I treasure what he brings home.
Both
I like both as well
Why not do a handprint and then let them paint it or color it (scribbles and messy paint)
Iāve been both, parent and teacherā¦.
I love hand prints and I love scribbles. And itās awesome when you start seeing them draw different stages of drawings.
The only thing I donāt like is when the teacher colors or draws on their page for them.
I would show the kids on my own piece of paper what to doā¦

Home school
Would the recent hoax bomb threats to schools make you consider home schooling?
There has been a massive jump in home schooling over the past several years anyway, but I feel like this gives families considering it a further push?
Personally, I would like to homeschool, especially my son but my partner is against it and his elder kids are all in school.

What to do
I donāt know if this is the right group to ask. So I been with my husband for about 2 years now. (Known him for about 12 years) We have a 2 week old son. But within the past year, my husband just has got really rude. Has attitude with me all the time. Never helped me really during pregnancy and I waited to see how he would be when the baby got here. But being 2 weeks pp he really hurts my feelings. I told him to think about our marriage, etc and expressed how I felt. He said he wasnāt going to do that and that he loves me but I donāt feel the āloveā. I always wanted a family and to be happy (I know marriage isnāt always perfect). But I donāt know what to do. I question if he really does love me. Etc. And Iām really debating if I should just see where it goes and maybe heās stressed, etc? Or if I should just end it cuz nothing might ever change.

Keeping baby entertained
Any suggestions for keeping a 6 month old entertained whilst out and about? I go out and meet family or friends in cafes quite a bit but the last few weeks my little boy has been getting quite agitated and probably bored. I always take him lots of toys but possibly could do with something new, possibly something more interactive. Any suggestions? He used to be fine just watching what was going on around him but that doesn't seem to be the case any more š¬
