The show is also archived and downloadable at your convenience.

Small changes can make a big difference in how your familoy members interact. Ask your children how they would like to rearrange the familoy room for example. This gets them to invest in the arrangement and to feel they have some say. Also, let them arrange their bedrooms, within your comfortable limits.

Take Home Tips from World Ambassador for Family Randy Rolfe: Keep fresh air in each room and comfortable chairs for each member of the famiy. Use bright and light relaxing colors so that indoors the family is surrounded with as much full spectrum light as possible.

It's only in the last hundred years we have structured education for everyone the same - in a classroom with one adult presiding and all the kids the same age. Throughout history, kids have learned one on one, at a parent's or mentor's elbow, or by exploration adn experimentation. Many kids thrive with a tutor and gain the confidence and understanding they need to learn more easily and effectively than they can in the classroom. Listen in to hear the insights of Neil Haley, the Total Tutor. For details,

Take Home Tip From Randy Rolfe: Give your child encouragement whenever he or she is trying to figure something out, read something, or use numbers. Correct him or her when they ask your help but have patience and ask if they want help before making corections or before giving advice. Meanwhile, enjoy their natural desire to learn!

Take Home Tip from five time author, family therapist, and longevity trainer Randy Rolfe: Send your children outside, even if they want to finish their video game or do some more texting or grab another snack. Send them outside without earphones so they can get not only the visual but also the the audio portion of Nature and let them tell you about any odors of Nature they detected. Let them play in sand, mud, or meadows. You will have a more cooperative child!
