Editors' Letter
Christmas is a magical time when you have young children. From how they get excited about snow, Christmas trees and presents, to the wonder that is Father Christmas (not forgetting those helpful "phone calls" to Father Christmas about bad behaviour!), there are endless ways to make it a special time.
It is also one of the busiest times of year, and can be a little overwhelming, so in this issue, we’ve ideas on how to make Christmas fun, and how to survive it with your sanity intact. We’ve some wonderful traditions local NCT members have shared with us, as well as tips on how to manage your little one’s sleep and what it’s like being pregnant at Christmas. Along with our usual first aid tips, birth stories, and dates for the diary, this edition is bursting at the seams.
We hope you have a wonderful Christmas, and a Happy New Year.
