familydrawing.gifIt’s four days into the New Year, but it’s never too late for a new start. If you haven’t decided on a New Year’s resolution, here are some suggestions from SureBaby.com. (These are specifically directed toward parents, but work equally well for parents-to-be!)

  1. TV & Computer Limitations - Set limitations for T.V. and the computer to no more than 2 hours per day.
  2. Get your Finances in Order - Having your finances in disarray funnels out negatively onto your children.
  3. Limit Junk Food - Limiting junk food and soda from your child’s diet can help him/her think more clearly.
  4. Volunteer - Getting your family involved in the community helps focus on others & not just self.
  5. Quality Time - Plan family fun activities together such as weekend outings and family game nights.
  6. Get Fit- Incorporate regular exercise into your children’s daily routines, such as red light green light, or a family stroll around the neighborhood.
  7. Relax! - Take regular breaks yourself. A little time-off will do you and everyone in the family some good.
  8. Quit Smoking - Second-hand smoke can cause serious health problems in all members of your household including your children.
  9. Be Consistent - Setting limits and boundaries minimize behavorial problems in children which creates stability and a more peaceful home life.
  10. Encourage - Be encouraging to your children and focus on their successes and even if they fail at something, be there to support their efforts.
