Care & Feeding: Toddlers Can Know Moving Is Sh*tty

Slate Conversations

On this episode: helping a little guy with some big changes. A member of our Slate Parenting Facebook Group is getting ready to move with a three-year-old (and another kid on the way) — and between the disruption, the feelings, and the impending newness, this parent wants to know how to help smooth things out for her kid. Luckily, Elizabeth and Zak are seasoned experts.

We also check in on what’s happening in the hosts’ lives right now. And then, if you’re joining us for the Plus Playground — out now in your podcast feed — we’re weighing whether it’s okay to toss out kids’ art.

If you’re not part of the Slate Plus community, we hope you’ll consider joining! Keep reading to learn how.

Elizabeth’s check-in: say yes!

Zak’s check-in: shoot your shots!
