On Becoming Preschoolwise by Gary Ezzo,Robert Bucknam Pdf

Who can understand the mind of a preschooler? You can! Know that above all else, a preschooler is a learner. His amazing powers of reasoning and discrimination are awakened through a world of play and imagination. Through home relationships, he learns about love, trust, comfort, and security; through friends he learns to measure himself against a world of peers; and through unconditional love, a child establishes his own unique selfhood. The growth period between ages three and five years is all about learning, and On Becoming Preschoolwise is all about helping parents create the right opportunities and best environment to optimize their child's learning potential.Now influencing over two million homes worldwide, trusted parenting authors Gary Ezzo and Dr. Robert Bucknam once again bring their collective wisdom, experience, and insight to bear on this critical phase of preschool training. From teaching about the importance of play to learning how to prepare a preschooler for the first day of school, from organizing your child's week to understanding childhood fears and calming parental anxiety, sound advice and practical application await the reader. You will find this resource as practical as it is informative, curative as much as it is encouraging.

On Becoming Baby Wise by Gary Ezzo,Robert Bucknam Pdf

The infant management concepts presented in this book have found favor with over two million parents and twice as many contented babies. On Becoming Babywise brings hope to the tired and bewildered parents looking for an alternative to sleepless nights and fussy babies. The Babywise Parent Directed Feeding concept has enough structure to bring security and order to your baby's world, yet enough flexibility to give mom freedom to respond to any need at any time. It teaches parents how to lovingly guide their baby's day rather than be guided or enslaved to the infant's unknown needs. The information contained within On Becoming Babywise is loaded with success. Comprehensive breast-feeding follow-up surveys spanning three countries, of mothers using the PDF method verify that as a result of the PDF concepts, 88% breast-feed, compared to the national average of only 54% (from the National Center for Health Statistics). Of these breast-feeding mothers, 80% of them breast-feed exclusively without a formula complement. And while 70% of our mothers are still breast-feeding after six months, the national average encourage to follow demand feeding without any guidelines is only 20%. The mean average time of breast-feeding for PDF moms is 33 1/2 weeks, well above the national average. Over 50% of PDF mothers extend their breast-feeding toward and well into the first year. Added to these statistics is another critical factor. The average breast-fed PDF baby sleeps continuously through night seven to eight hours between weeks seven and nine. Healthy sleep in infants is analogous to healthy growth and development. Find out for yourself why a world of parents and pediatricians utilize the concepts found in On Becoming Babywise.

It's reality-check time! You are at least five months into your tour of parenting duty by now. The complexity of child-training has begun to come into focus. You have learned that as your baby matures both constant and variable factors continually influence his or her development. What behaviors can and should you expect from your pretoddler? Feeding time for your pretoddler, for example, is now more than a response controlled by a sucking reflex.

Right and wrong conduct will be encouraged, discouraged, and guided when necessary. In fact, right and wrong patterns of behavior will now be part of your baby's entire day. That's why feeding time, waketime and sleeptime provide wonderful opportunities for training and Babywise Book II will guide you all the way, from the high chair to playpen, from the living room to the back yard.

More Fun Activities for Playful Learning by Helena Joubert Pdf

This book is a companion to my first book, Fun Activities for Playful Learning – The First 3 Years. It is structured in a similar fashion but intended for the little older pre-school child. The aim is to stimulate youngsters through age-appropriate fun activities. I chose to use the feminine form when referring to children for the sake of uniformity throughout the book (and my son is outnumbered in this matter). Some of the information from my first book is included in this book as I do not want new readers to miss out on it. Moms, roll up your sleeves and join in the fun! Since children feel secure when following a routine, it is wise to establish some sort of structure for your daily activities. The daily program supplied merely serves as an example - tailor it to your specific needs or circumstances. A good guideline for a stay-at-home mom is to start out using the schedule for 2 or 3 days a week, and work it up to 5 days a week.

Compost Makes the Strawberries Grow by Lolita L. Jardeleza Pdf

Countless “how-to” parenting books are on the market. Why yet another? Author Lolita L. Jardeleza relates that after many years of parenting, it suddenly dawned on her that a mother’s primary function is to help her children discover just how wonderful they are. She also took on the task of sharing her story at the behest of her eleven children, who are now parents themselves and want to cherish their children just as they were cherished. Compost Makes the Strawberries Grow is not all saccharine and sweetness; it gets down to the brass tacks of everyday family living. The author tackles a wide range of real-life issues with all the honesty, heart, and humor of Erma Bombeck. The issues she deals with include sibling power, fighting the good fight, honesty, being kind to others, obedience, values, and cultural literacy. This is a book that treats parenting with gratitude and grace.

The Better Mom by Ruth Schwenk Pdf

Mothering is messy. Our joy and hope in raising children doesn’t change the reality that being a mom can be frustrating, stressful, and tiring. But just as God is using us to shape our children, God is using our children and motherhood to shape us. In The Better Mom, author Ruth Schwenk, herself a mother of four children, encourages us with the good news that there is more to being a mom than the extremes of striving for perfection or simply embracing the mess. We don’t need to settle for surviving our kids’ childhood. We can grow through it. With refreshing and heartfelt honesty Ruth emboldens moms to: Find freedom and walk confidently in purpose Create a God-honoring home environment Overcome unhealthy and destructive emotions such as anger, anxiety, and more Avoid glorifying the mess of mom-ing or idolizing perfection Cultivate life-giving friendships At the heart of The Better Mom is the message that Jesus calls us to live not a weary life, but a worthy life. We don’t have to settle for either being apathetic or struggling to be perfect. Both visions of motherhood go too far. Ruth offers a better option. She says, “It’s okay to come as we are, but what we’re called to do and be is far too important to stay there! The way to becoming a better mom starts not with what we are doing, but with who God is inviting us to become."
