In our home I have a curious child.

One who likes to take things apart and see how things work.

She needs to understand the Why and loves order around her.

I also have a cautious child. One who loves the familiar, and who is happiest when at home .

New experiences are just a no, no and everything must be introduced gently and over time he might join in , or simply decide it is not for him.

One thing that both children have in common, is a great big fear of washing their hair.

Something about the water on their face has been a challenge from their tiniest moments.

What I do admire about my children is their courage to try and try again.

I notice how positive reinforcement and championing them, gives them that little bit of strength to stay still even when they would rather run .

Lalo the Brave Lion tells the story of one of those tiny moments that build self esteem.

This book is also a celebration of afro hair and includes the step by step process for wash day!
