Group Leaders aren’t expected to spend any additional time in the community, and are not held to a set schedule. Group Leaders communicate with staff moderators and escalate potential violations for review, but they don’t moderate discussions. I implemented a number of the suggestions in the back of the book to make the process more magical for him and easier for us.

Booby Moon , inspired by both Indigenous storytelling and Western mythology like the Tooth Fairy, uses a simple rhyming format to prepare toddlers – and parents – for this monumental milestone. Following the storybook is an extensive guidebook with plenty of advice, tips and tricks for both the Booby Moon method and the weaning process in general. With over 6 million of the world’s best eBooks to choose from, Kobo offers you a whole world of reading. We didn’t do the balloon ceremony thing, but I would remind her that mama’s booby milk went to the moon whenever she would ask to nurse.It features a magical element that appeals to the child, so that they look forward to their weaning day and are more emotionally prepared to say goodbye to nursing. Note: Book features an illustration of a mother cuddling her toddler to sleep instead of nursing them at night (bed-sharing). This is a used book - there is no escaping the fact it has been read by someone else and it will show signs of wear and previous use.

The story also brings comfort post weaning, offering reassurance that the relationship continues; you can still wave up to Booby Moon and Mumma will still be here to offer love, cuddles and comfort.The ritual aspect of the Booby Moon process helps mother and toddler find an easeful acceptance for Booby Milk going away – with the child seeing the magic leave with their own eyes. As in Reid’s real life, the mum and toddler in the book mark the occasion, on the night of the toddler’s birthday, by having one last feed before releasing a glow-in-the-dark helium balloon, thanking the milk and waving goodbye as it floats away.
