Family Life

 

Family Activity Calendar

Use colored removable dots to indicate family activities.  Designate a specific color, such as red for family time at regular intervals each week.  As the year goes by watch carefully how many hours a week your child commits to other color activities such as sports, entertainment, and academics.  With a little cooperation, children will learn to budget time each week for activities which are most important. 

Family Fitness

 

Rope Challenge

Help your kids get warmed up for vigorous play or exercise by stretching with a jump rope.  Try these quick and easy exercises.

Reed Stretch: Alternate standing on the rope with one foot as you pull the rope high towards the ceiling with both hands. 

Seated Pull: with legs outstretched and together in front of you, center the rope across the bottom of your arches and lean back with your weight pulling back up with your arms pulling on the jump rope. 

Back Vertical Pull: With one hand grasping one end of a jump rope behind your neck and your dominant hand grasping the dangling rope at approximately your lower back, pull the rope skyward as your dominant hand pulls floor-ward. 

 

Family Food

 

Ricotta-Cheese Dip

Here's a sweet dip that takes just a few minutes to make. Mix a small container (15 1/2 ounces) of low-fat ricotta cheese with 4 tablespoons of peanut, almond, or soy-nut butter and 2 tablespoons of honey. Serve with crackers, pretzels, or raw vegetables.
