Welcoming a New Baby: A Sibling’s Perspective
Welcoming a New Baby: Helping Siblings Adjust
Bringing a new baby home is exciting but can be a big change for older siblings. While they may feel proud to be a big brother or sister, they might also experience moments of jealousy or confusion.
Including them in daily activities like helping with diaper changes, reading to the baby, or choosing baby outfits can foster a sense of importance and pride. Reading books about becoming a sibling, like A New Baby for Our Family, can also help them prepare emotionally and feel reassured.
Companion resources, such as an activity book, coloring book, and the Little Legends Journal, provide creative outlets to help children adjust and feel included. With love and support, siblings can embrace their new role and build a lifelong bond with the baby.
