Cooking Tips
When it comes to certain topics such as life, it is not easy to comprehend for adults. Even more so when you want to have a conversation with your child on a difficult topic like the passing of a loved one. Jenny takes a step by step approach in letting her kids be introduced to the nature of her job as the Managing Director of Direct Funeral Services.
It is not easy to juggle between her work life balance, with her three kids. Watch as Yen Lim and Jenny Tay talk about managing their roles at home and at work.
Jenny's Tips
Balanced Diet and Timer
Make sure that your kids have an ample amount of carbs, protein, fibre in one meal! Like the Mee Hoon Kuey Jenny cooked!
Another idea would be to set a timer to teach kids to finish their meals on time. Give them a time limit and make them follow it consistently.
1 2 3 Step by Step Approach
Jenny carefully explains the concept of death to her kids. One example is explaining that everyone passes on, such as their dog which recently passed, so we have to cherish loved ones around us when they are still around!
Good Support System
Seek help if you need to, and gather a support system you can rely on. The people in your support group can be the ones closest to you where you can count on to lend a helping hand when you need it.
A Date Night
For couples, a date just between you and your other half is what you need. Jenny says that only when the couple is happy then will the family be happy!
