Giveaway: Fed Up with Frenzy

I am excited to giveaway Fed Up with Frenzy: Slow Parenting in a Fast-Moving World to one of my lucky readers!

In her new book, Fed Up with Frenzy: Slow Parenting in a Fast-Moving World, Susan Sachs Lipman shares ideas to help families join the Slow Movement and maintain a relaxed and joyful life throughout the year. Slow Parenting helps families disconnect from the busy world and enjoy life’s simple pleasures.

Fed up with Frenzy includes advice to help families maintain a frenzy-free lifestyle even during the busy fall back-to-school season:

Create Successful Children– The most valuable and useful character traits that prepare children for success do not arise from extracurricular or academic commitments but from a firm grounding in love, role modeling, and guidance from family.
Improve Physical and Psychological Family Health- Slowing down for as little as six minutes, can reduce stress for people of all ages. Activities like walking, crafts, and reading significantly lower our heart rate and other stress indicators.
Create Lasting Family Memories and Traditions – Whether playing a board game or baking cookies, the warmest family memories come from moments that seem small at the time. Gestures that come from shared activity and downtime have a way of becoming family rituals.

Fun Fall Activities for Slow Parenting:

Make Fall-leaf Placemats – Capture the beauty of fall leaves by creating table placemats that can be enjoyed throughout the year.
Roast Pumpkin Seeds – After carving pumpkins, roast leftover seeds and warm the house with smells of fall.
Stuff a Scarecrow – These classic fall decorations are great fun for families to make and decorate.
Build a Family Gratitude Tree for Thanksgiving – Slowing down to give thanks creates calm and solace. The habit of gratitude is a wonderful gift to give to children.
