The Television Rx For Helping Kids Learn!

                           More T.V. For Better Grades!

Are you the type that wants your kids to watch less T.V.?
Or are you the type that says your grades will suffer as a result
of watching T.V.?

Well, The suits who run Hollywood don't really care one way or the
other, they just want you and your kids watching more of it
and if you're the type who is worried about their grades suffering,
you can do this.
What is it?
Turn on the Close- Captioning.

Yes, you're reading it right, reading to kids was and will always be
a staple in a lot of homes, but new research says that turning on
the close-- captioning is equal to pureeing vegetables and sneaking
them into your kids' diet.
This is a great way to get kids to learn while watching T.V. and one more
thing...Kids don't even have to read along to benefit. Seeing the written words
on the screen subconsciously foster's a more positive attitude toward reading.
So, next time The Wiggles come on, turn off the sound and let your
kids read and sing along.

Good Luck!

Lady Gaga's Rxs For Healthier Kids!

                                  Play The Piano Like Gaga! 

There's no denying the star power of Lady Gaga, from
sell-out concerts to the millions of fans who follow her every word
on Twitter, she'll most likely be around for decades like Cher and Madonna.

If you have a child and want them to be better listeners, have more focus,
be able to communicate more effectively and go to college, then you must have
them follow in Lady Gaga's  footsteps.
We don't mean the wild and elaborate costumes, but the early education
in music.

Whether it's learning and playing the piano (like Gaga or Alicia Keys)
or the drums, or the bass guitar, learning an instrument (even for a yr.)
will help develop a well-rounded, intelligent child.
So, if you were undecided on music or karate lessons, perhaps the
benefits listed above will help change your mind.

Good Luck!

Beyonce's Rx For Raising Down To Earth Kids!

                              Raising Good Kids! 

It's rumored that Jay Z and (maybe Beyonce) are spoiling
baby "Blue Ivy" rotten and she's not even a year yet.
And what's wrong with that, you ask?

As she gets older and Jay Z and Beyonce want to help her do well
on an exam, which approach works best?
a) Telling her she'll get $500 if she aces it. Or...
b) A meal out with a few friends at the local diner.
If you chose B, give yourself a hand.
Why B?
Kids perform better when the reward is much smaller and surprisingly,
do worse if the reward is bigger.

That's right- when kids receive big rewards they lose focus and spend
too much time worrying about the "big" reward-and that causes their
brains to freeze up.

So, if you're Beyonce or a mom from Wichita Kansas,
look into small rewards and hopefully, the kids you raise,
will be hard working, kinder, more concerned about others and smarter.

Good Luck!
