benefits of a quiet time

Parenting is a journey filled with surprises and challenges. For many parents, the nap-battles can feel like a huge struggle. But what if there was an alternative approach that not only brought peace to your home but also nurtured valuable skills in your children?


Enter 'quiet time' – a concept that has been a game-changer in countless households, including ours. Instead of wrestling with nap-resistant children, we've embraced the idea of incorporating a period of quiet time into our daily routine. And let me tell you, the benefits have been nothing short of remarkable!

benefits of a quiet time for children

1. Mindfulness

At the heart of 'quiet time' lies the opportunity for children to cultivate mindfulness – the practice of being present and aware of one's thoughts, feelings and surroundings. In our household, this helps our children tune in to their inner selves, free from the distractions of screens and noise.

You can practice mindfulness through gentle breathing exercises, quiet contemplation or simply lying down with the eyes closed.


2. Independence

One of the unexpected joys of implementing 'quiet time' has been witnessing the blossoming independence of our children. While the younger ones may initially require some guidance on how to occupy themselves, the older ones grab the opportunity to take charge of their own activities.

From constructing Lego creations to immersing themselves in the pages of a favourite book, our children have discovered the joy of self-directed play during 'quiet time'. This newfound independence not only fosters a sense of autonomy, but also instils valuable skills in time management and decision-making.

3. Unlocking Learning Potential

As parents, we're constantly seeking ways to support our children's academic growth and development. By engaging in focused activities for extended periods, our children are developing their ability to concentrate.

Ways to promote learning through 'quiet time' can be through puzzle-building or practising their handwriting.


4. Nurturing Creativity

In a world saturated with screens and constant stimulation, nurturing creativity in our children has never been more important.

During 'quiet time', our children are encouraged to explore their imaginations and pursue activities that ignite their passions. Whether it's drawing,  story-writing or arts and crafts session, the possibilities for creative expression are endless.

arts and crafts

In a world that seems to value constant activity and stimulation, the concept of 'quiet time' may initially seem counterintuitive. However, as parents, we've discovered first-hand the transformative power of carving out moments of stillness and reflection in our children's daily lives.

Wish we had found these a long time ago

We have been. using bed pads for years, but these are far better quality. We now have 2 and took the advice from the website, of popping them on top of the normal bed sheet and not underneath - saves extra washing of bed sheets on many a day.

Thank you for your fantastic review of PeapodMats, Julie! We really appreciate it.
