Nanny to Mommy

There’s no denying that kids enjoy the taste of food high in sugar, fat, and salt. But while these ingredients might encourage them to eat three square meals a day, they’re probably not doing their bodies any good.

Interestingly, though, you don’t have to throw your hands up in the air and give up. There are ways to make burgers, ice cream, and pizza more nutritionally sound.

As you might suspect, it all comes down to what ingredients you put in them. When you buy shop-bought items, you don’t have much control over what goes into them. You have to accept what the manufacturer uses, and that’s it.

When you make your own treats, though, you have way more control.

Physical activities help children have strong muscles and bones, tone their body, and reduce the risk of ailments such as diabetes, obesity, and other conditions. However, there is more to exercise than the physical benefits to the body. Exercise is essential for enhancing mental health in children particularly those that experience psychological difficulties. Physical activities can help ease and cure the negative symptoms of mental disorders like depression, sadness, stress, and ADHD in children. Through exercise, children can enhance their academic performance, self-esteem, concentration, and memory. Here are some positive ways exercise benefits kids.

As your children grow up, you need to make sure they’re getting the vitamins and minerals they need to develop healthy and strong bodies and minds. Indeed, there’s a wealth of information dedicated to the subject of children’s nutrition. Knowing where and when to get the necessary vitamins for children who need extra minerals is something parents should learn, in order to give their kids the best chance in life as they can.

We recently had the opportunity to review a new title from ISeeMe called "I Wish You More". It is personalized with a child’s name on the cover and throughout the story. The book can even be customized with a photo on the dedication page. As an added personal touch, "I Wish You More" includes a printed dedication from the sender, making it an extra-special gift for a child’s graduation, birthday or “just because”. My daughter recently "graduated" from 3K and I thought this book would be perfect for her.



My daughter loves seeing her name on every page in the "I Wish You More" book. I love that it is from New York Times bestselling book creators and published by Chronicle Books. The quality of this book is perfect and it makes the perfect gifts for any occasion.

I received complimentary products from Fiona's Prince in order to provide this review. All opinions are my own and may differ from yours.

I don't know about you, but my little girl LOVES shoes. She loves to play dress up and all things "girly", of course she likes to crush stereotypes too. So when I was offered the opportunity to review a pair of shoes from Fiona's Prince, I have to say at first I was a little taken aback because it made me nervous working with a foreign company (based in Shanghai, China) that I had never heard of. But I decided to give them a try because they specialize in quality kids footwear with sizes from 2 months to 8 years old.

 

Fiona's Prince has some very cute shoes to choose from, but I decided to get the Ballet Dancer boots.
