When I was a child, children played outside from early morning until early evening. We made up games, played tag, hide and seek, ball, jump rope, and anything we could create. Today, children are on the internet, playstation, watching TV, and are not getting the exercise they need. Turn off the computer and TV and get out every day for 45-60 minutes of activity. It will make all the difference in your childens' overall health. Get out there and join them. You will feel better too!
Why not decide to take steps for a healthier lifestyle? Stop eating fast foods and save money at the same time. Sit down and make up everyones favorite menus and shop from that list. You may find a real chef in the making. Make sure you include fruits, vegetables, meat or protein, dairy, and grains every day. Everyone in the family will feel better and have more energy. When you eat healthier, the doctor's visits should decrease and physical activity should increase. So, make that list of menus today and start enjoying life!
Why not spend some quality time with your child. You can schedule it the same time every week! Start going for walks together, or to the park, library, or local museums. It does not have to cost you a cent, just some time. Start a collection that interest you and the child.. You may decide to collect coins, stamps, dolls, shells, rocks, angels, model cars, etc.. Read about your collection and become experts. Go to yard sales and try to find little gems to add to the collection. You will find that the times you spend together will be remembered for the rest of your lives. Just enjoy some quality time together and see what happens! Your child will be happier and so will you.
Why not sit down and have a family meeting and talk to your child? Tell your child/children what is going on in your life and listen to your child's/childrens' experiences. You may find out you can help one another and bring your family closer together. It is extremely important to know what and how your child/children are thinking. That way you can correct and help them through difficult decisions. Make sure you listen carefully and live by example. So, just schedule a little time to talk with you child/children today.
Do you want to know how to keep your child interested in learning during the summer break? Read to your child or have them read 15-30 minutes every day. You will see an improvement in their overall academic performance during the school year and reading will widen their interest in other topics. Let them read topics that interest your child and discuss the book together. Read with your child and have a WONDERFUL summer break.
The most important gift you can give your child is unconditional love. You must have high expectations for your child's behavior and accomplishments, but realistic and achievable expectations. Above all things let your child know you love them unconditionally!
