Winter break with highly sensitive kids can feel endless, especially when snow days extend time at home or school breaks stretch on. With my kids in year-round school, we’ve been navigating a five-week break, and I wanted to share how we’re making it through. From cozy moments to screen time challenges, it’s been all about staying grounded and finding balance.

I’ll share the strategies that have been keeping me (and my kids!) sane, from embracing a flexible routine to finding moments of connection that don’t involve elaborate activities. Plus, I’ll dive into how I handle screen time without the guilt, and what I’ve learned about making the most of those unexpected extra days off.

If you’re looking for practical tips and a dose of solidarity during this long winter break, this episode is for you. Let’s survive these extra days together while still finding joy in the season!
