Family Fun Nights
by Liza Bany Winters.
Filled with imaginative activities to bring the family together and
create lifelong memories, Family Fun Nights for parents and grandparents is
full of activity ideas that require little or no preparation and use
materials that are easily found around the house. The 26 themed family
events and 140 related activities go beyond game night and movie night
by creating family traditions that kids will remember and look forward
to repeating. Families laugh together on "Giggle Night" or "Opposite
Night," explore during "Animal Night" and "Science Night," or scare
themselves silly on "Spooky Night" and "Mystery Night." Everything
needed to make the night complete is detailed, including skits, songs,
crafts, games, and recipes.

Common Sense Parenting
Volume 2 Teaching Children Self-Control
What's a parent to do when a child blows up, throws a temper tantrum,
or freezes them out with the uncooperative, silent treatment? Teaching
children how to stay in control when they are frustrated or angry is a
difficult parenting challenge. This Common Sense Parenting video gives parents the tools to
handle emotionally intense situations with their child. Learning how to
stay calm is the first step parents must take when facing an upset
child. Then the video demonstrates how parents can calm the child down
and, once he or she is in control again, do follow-up teaching. Here,
the child practices how to behave better when feeling angry or upset.
Teaching self-control gives both parent and child the time and space to
calm down and to work toward fewer angry outbursts in the future.
