Children

Active play eludes kids in summer:
Summer vacation may offer a break from the books but only one-third of Northern California children will likely spend their free time being physically active, a new report suggests.

500 parents of children aged six to 12 in the Bay Area we surveyed, they found most choose summer programs by cost and availability, not physical activity.

"This is not a question of parents being irresponsible," "They found that most of these programs were more expensive."

Remember. Sticks and stones will break by bones but words... Well remember to choose your words wisely... Especially with children.
On a daily basis kids here 7 no's or corrections to every yes or positive comment.
I say we balance the scale and give them a few "atta babe" even for something as simple as getting their shoes on without your help
Confident kids excel in life!

Children are great imitators, so give them something great to imitate. 

Be careful what you say it can and will be used against you...
