5 Healthy Habits Every Mother Should Teach Her Kids

Published

on

A child will always look up to their parents in their life, in most cases. A mother takes in a huge role in a child’s life. She will always point the direction for their children, a person who would guide them when they get themselves into some trouble, and also teach them healthy habits that will make them grow as a person. Passing on the mother’s wisdom and healthy habits on to their children. Hence, it is very important for a child to understand between healthy and unhealthy habits, and choose the healthy ones. These are the 5 Healthy Habits every mother should teach her kids. 

Brushing one’s teeth everyday

One of the most common skills any child should learn is how to brush teeth. The children should be made clear why it is necessary to do so. The effects of brushing inadequate can take years to show, hence kids do not always grasp why they need to clean their teeth every day and night.

In order encourage your child with this healthy habit, the mother should create somewhat of a game, or a fun experience while making them brush their teeth, imagination is at your grasp, do something exciting to make them have more fun in doing it.

Respecting others equally

Respecting people of other gender, races, ethnics should be taught to a child at a young age. They can learn respect by learning to care for each other’s physical space, interests, needs and thoughts. and also teaching your child the do’s and don’ts on having a conversation. 

By showing your children love openly and wholeheartedly every day, you are teaching them how to love themselves and others. Making the kids to accept themselves for who they are and enabling them to the same with others. They must also be willing to forgive family and friends in order to love everyone unconditionally.

Encourage learning rather than performance

We live in a high-tech world where kids have a strong influence for technology being implemented on to their personality development. Sometimes, this extreme exposure may affect their capability and courage to learn or try something new. They may be stuck on tablets or phones and had a negative effect on their mental and physical status. 

Build a constant habitual desire to make your children learn new things and a get a great personality trait, which is a must for an overall personality development. They should learn to gain the courage to try out new things; it may be a piano, football or writing. But on a side note, your focus should be on making your child learn, rather than show performance. Nowadays, parents engage their children in various classes to acquire new skills at a young age, that’s an amazing sign, but having a really high expectation to create a winner (or becoming one) would not be good at all. I believe that you as a mother should always try to teach new skill to kids but also try to focus on making them learn rather than performance. 

Self-discipline and timing

Kids are the innocent learner, they’re impulsive naturally. I feel “Self-discipline” has a tremendous positive impact on any person’s life. it is all about having the ability to control yourself. someone armed with sensible self-discipline undoubtedly has a better perspective on his life and may solve his life challenges more simply. Obviously, children have a shorter attention span and lack of self-control. however, a bit of effort can make them more efficient. Self-regulation skills additionally play a significant role in tutorial action. they have to follow directions, concentrate on studies and behaviour throughout their school year. Studies prompt that youngsters’ people who have higher self-discipline at the first age develop higher tutorial skills over time.

So, this can be the first unique character that each mother ought to teach her youngsters. And it is done at home by doing little simple steps like setting a fixed time for all routine chores, take their help in minor everyday jobs and continually encourage them for acquiring good healthy habits.

Being ambitious in life but with a sense of happiness in life

Definitely, it is nice to be bold in your life. You must have a powerful want to realize your goal. Toil with passion and ambition always help in success in all fields of life. You would want to make your children ambitious with a robust desire to attain their goals, but at the same time learn to be content and proud of their action is additionally necessary for happiness. We tend to live in a highly competitive world, everybody desires to achieve everything and generally, this over-ambition could cause unhappiness and frustration. So, develop a way of self- satisfaction and happiness area unit vital from childhood. this is the third personality attribute that will facilitate in their healthy personality development.

Provide your child with these following healthy habits, and it will go a long way in developing a healthy habit and shaping personality. Teach him how following these healthy habits at school or anywhere else will make him become a better person. Over at Childmode, you can find the best nail clippers for your kids

So, these were my favorite healthy habits and character traits that may help in creating a healthy balance in our parenting style. it’ll build their academic and life journey a bit smoother. I feel each mother should try and teach these healthy habits to her children. What are your thoughts? Please share with us. till then happy parenting!

Watching The Gift Of Giving Is A Blessing In Many Ways

Published

on

My biggest guilty pleasure is watching East Idaho’s Secret Santa video’s on YouTube. Watching these men and women who are so deserving be seen and heard fills my heart with such joy. Sometimes the thanks is just around the corner.

The Secret Santa is a native Idahoan who lives in eastern Idaho. The money comes directly from him – not some program, organization, charity or trust fund. The recipient’s must live in eastern Idaho and have a true need. If you wonder what a “true need” is or are unsure if your nominee will qualify for a gift, submit your nomination.

The Secret Santa looks for responsible and deserving citizens who have done everything in their power to care for themselves but ill fortune or unfortunate situations have put them at a significant disadvantage. In the past, Secret Santa has provided cars, washers and dryers, furniture, special computers, dental care, diapers, gas and grocery cards and other items.

Recipients of gifts are not taxed by the IRS. However, on some large gifts over $16,000, the giver must pay a gift tax to the IRS. Secret Santa pays all necessary gift and sales taxes. Many wonder if Secret Santa gets a tax break on the gifts he gives away. Since these are gifts, and not business expenses, Secret Santa cannot claim these as tax deductions. He receives no tax benefit whatsoever.

Secret Santa and EastIdahoNews.com have been surprising people in need since 2015. That year, Secret Santa gave away $100,000. The amount has increased every year since then.

Secret Santa tells us about one Christmas when he was a young man living temporarily in a foreign country. Since he was away from home, he was not expecting any gifts but on Christmas morning, when he sat down for breakfast, there was a present on his table. It was not an expensive gift and it was anonymous. It was the only Christmas gift he received that year and it had a big impact on him. He did not know who it was from, but he knew someone loved and cared about him. That lifted him up beyond what anyone could imagine. To this day, he has no idea who gave him that small gift. But it still brings a flood of good feelings to him every time he relives that moment.

Today, there are countless people around him who love him, and he wants others to know that there are people who love them and care about them. He believes that giving anonymously with no expectation of receiving anything in return is the ultimate expression of love and caring. He wants others to have the experience that he did as a young man over 50 years ago.

Secret Santa appreciates anyone who wants to help, but he is not asking for donations. He encourages you to find someone in your own community who needs help and bless them – then pay attention to how that brightens your day. His message to the world: Everyone can be a Secret Santa!

Headed To Walter Reade With Camp4Heroes To Bring Christmas To Our Vets: First Stop Annapolis

Published

on

My friends and I were headed to Bethesda, Maryland to Walter Reade with Camp4Heroes to bring Christmas To Our Vets.

Our driver decided to take us to the historic charm of Annapolis since two of us had never been there. Along the shores of the Chesapeake Bay is nestled just 32 miles from Washington, DC and 26 miles from Baltimore.

This bustling port town formed in the 18th century, is a National Historic Landmark, America’s Sailing Capital and one of the top waterfront destinations in the United States.

The US Naval Academy has been training officers for the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps since 1845.

If you love the water there are several water taxi’s available.

Margarita and the tree

I loved the music notes that adorned the spruce

The town was adorably set up for Christmas.

Margarita and the loaded Bloody Mary

 

Shrimp Po-Boy with Cheese Grits

Crab Eggs Benedict With delicious Cheese Grits

Crab Dip and Chips

Famous for its fresh-from-the-bay seafood. The food is sublime. We went to the Iron Rooster and will definitely be coming back.

Called a Museum Without Walls, Annapolis has more 18th-century brick buildings than any other city of comparable size in the nation including the homes of Maryland’s four signers of the Declaration of Independence.

The Maryland State House is the oldest in continuous legislative use. The Banneker-Douglass Museum documents Maryland’s African American history from the 1600s to the present day. Housed in an old oyster packing plant, the newly redesigned Annapolis Maritime Museum & Park chronicles life on the Chesapeake Bay then and now.


The Smithsonian Environmental Research Center invites visitors to explore its 2,650-acre campus that spans forests, wetlands, marshes and 15 miles of protected shoreline.

I can’t wait to come back and attend the second largest Renaissance Festival.
