Making time for exercise can be fun for the whole family. If you think you don't have time to exercise because your kid's need your attention or work seems to be consuming you all of the time, then maybe it is time to reassess your priorities. Exercising regularly sets a good example for your children. It shows them that you care about your health and that exercise should be an enjoyable part of everyday life.  It also helps to relive stress and improves mood therefore, making you more productive at work.

Healthy homemade snacks are treats your little ones (and big ones) will love to find in their lunch.  These tasty Crispy Treats and Zucchini Cookies are sure to put a smile on your loved ones face.

1.                  Remember Routines.  Staying up late and sleeping-in is a summer tradition.  Help ensure a good first week back by slowly shifting your child's schedule so their sleep does not get cut short.

2.                  Dust-off the family calendar.  After the lazy days of summer, it is time to start thinking about how to organize school days, including after school lessons, homework, sports and social time with friends.  Sit down as a family to coordinate your times, travel and logistics.

3.                  Research extracurricular activates. Check with your school or local recreation center to see what activities are offered at your child's grade level.  Then have a conversation with your child to determine their interest level.
