Water helps regulate body temperature, supports concentration and learning, aids digestion, and keeps little bodies active throughout the day. The amount of water a child needs varies depending on their age, weight, activity level, and the weather. A simple guide is to take half of your child's weight (up to 100 pounds)—that's approximately the number of ounces of water they should drink each day.

Often, this belief comes from thinking that creativity is only about art or craft and that a child's creation must have a recognisable purpose. In reality, creativity begins from birth. With the right environment and carefully chosen materials, even the youngest children can explore, experiment and express themselves in meaningful ways. By documenting children's experiences and observing the...]]></description><link>https://www.gubigabun.com/post/providing-creative-spaces-for-babies-and-toddlers</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a729921277d47c355d1bc07</guid><pubDate>Wed, 05 Aug 2026 02:01:24 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/8d0268008182458dba228f74fa1dace7.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>The Gubi Team</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Screen Time and Young Children]]></title><description><![CDATA[In today's digital world, screens have become part of everyday life. Whether it's a television, tablet or phone, many parents use screens to keep young children entertained while they juggle the demands of family life. While screens can provide a welcome break for busy parents, research shows that too much screen time during the early years may impact a child's development.

While sharing doesn't always come naturally, it is a skill that develops over time through guidance, patience and plenty of practice. As children learn to share, they also learn empathy, cooperation, communication and problem-solving—skills that will support them throughout their lives.

While these are wonderful ways for children to express themselves, creativity goes far beyond art. Creative play is about imagination, exploration, problem-solving and self-expression. It gives children the freedom to think in different ways, make their own choices and discover new possibilities.
