Young children often require so much attention it can be easy to forget the importance of one-on-one time with your older, more independent kid. With a little planning, it can be fun and easy to help your older child feel included. Katrina Ball, child care resource and referral manager from The Family Conservancy says, “Spending time one-on-one with the older child (not just the oldest) is crucial because it reaffirms the special bond that you have with your child.”
Kansas City moms also chime in to share the unique and fun ways they have found to make time for their oldest.

We’ve all been there: Trying to get out the door in the morning while the kids are still in their pajamas, wolfing down the last bites of the cereal you first told them to eat 30 minutes ago. Or trying to rush everyone to bed, but one is still finishing homework, one refuses to pick up the toys and the other has been “brushing his teeth” for 20 minutes. It’s maddening and makes even the calmest and most collected parents resort to yelling and threatening, which rarely get results. So how can we stop the stalling? Here are a few tips from local moms that may work for you!
