How to make siblings best friends?

Boas en Fera discovered a new game: playing restaurant. This started after we went to a pancake restaurant. So another good reason to go out for dinner more often :-)



And this is something we looooove to see as well! (They also do this in church. Isn't it cute?)

 And here follows another picture of something they can do together very pleasantly.


And if we're lucky, they even teach good things to each other ...


Conclusion:
We are very happy with this brother and sister. We love to see them develop their close relationship. But this doesn't happen without a struggle! And that can be hard. For us as their parents, but also for them as siblings. Another homeschooling mom recommended the book: Siblings without rivalry by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish. This book is a sequel to How to talk so kids will listen and listen so kids will talk, so I ordered these books and hope they will help me to cope with my kids' feelings and those of myself. Hopefully we can guide them into a best-friends-relationship! (Oh, and that's why I also ordered Making brothers and sisters best friends; how to fight the good fight at home! ;-) Let's say, for the christian perspective ...)

(By the way, if you prefer to buy new books, the links connect you with www.bookdepository.co.uk , which is an attractive choice because they don't charge you delivery costs. If you don't mind second hand books, you could easily buy them at www.abebooks.co.uk, where some books are that cheap that you basically pay only the delivery costs.)
