Last year for World Autism Awareness Week, Singapo

Last year for World Autism Awareness Week, Singapore-based British mama Pippa Gresham wrote an open letter to her eldest daughter with autism. In 2020 she turns her attention to her other three children, who experience life through a very different lens as siblings to a child with autism:⁠ ⁠ "The relationship you have with your brother or sister with autism is likely the longest relationship you will have, and who knows what responsibility and part you may have to play in the second act? Do not underestimate the impact of your smiles, strokes, laughter, and giggles you share because you are the hero of their story! You are their teacher, their playmate, their touch-point in a world which will likely be scary and sometimes strange."⁠ Link in bio to read more.⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #sassymamasg #autismawareness #autismfamily #autismparents #autismawarenessday #autismawarenessweek #worldautismawarenessday #celebratedifferences

Wash those hands! ✋🏼✋🏾🌶️⁠👀 Your best line of defence against the coronavirus and germs in general is to wash your hands with soap and water, rubbing for 20 seconds (that’s two renditions of Happy Birthday for kids to remember). ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #sassymamasg #sosassy #momlife #momquotes #motherhood #mommylife #parenthood #momsofinstagram #momlifeisbestlife #mommyhood #coronavirus #covid19 #washyourhands⁠ ⁠ ⁠

WE’RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. We are in unpreceden

WE’RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. We are in unprecedented times with this #coronavirus stuff; from school closures, to grocery panic-buying, to travel lockdowns, it’s sometimes (often?) felt like we’re living in a movie (next selection in the queue, please!). As parents in particular, we are navigating unfamiliar territory – How do you balance working from home with distance learning? How do you explain social distancing and handwashing to a toddler? How would your family cope with quarantine? At Sassy Mama we don’t pretend to have all the answers, but we want to do WHATEVER WE CAN to make you feel positive, entertained, and supported while you spend time at home with your family. From doctor FAQs, to fun at-home craft activities and science experiments, to free online learning resources, to the best @netflixsg shows for a comfort binge, we’ve got you, mama (link in bio). But do let us know if there’s something else you’d like to see, and we’ll do our best to make it happen! Team Sassy Mama hails from all over the world, and while many of us have watched in horror as this pandemic spreads to our native countries, we’ve felt all the more grateful, and #blessed, and proud to call Singapore our home. A massive thank you to @gov.sg and ALL the frontline workers across industries who are fighting so hard to keep us safe. #SGUnited #TogetherWeCanOvercome⁠ ⁠ - @katemacmac, Senior Editor
