LWMA Kids: Finish what you start.

LWMA Kids: The theme for this week’s kid’s class is “finishing what you start.” Everything from homework to small craft projects kids often find it hard to stay focused long enough to get something done. It’s important to remind a kid that while sometimes things can get hard the true reward comes in finishing a project and finishing it well.

It’s always good to reward children for their hard work. Here at LWMA children will see their hard work rewarded through strips on their belt; at home you can work to reward your children in other ways, maybe some extra play time with a friend, a special trip to one of their favorite locations, or occasionally just that favorite treat they have been wanting so badly.

No classes due to snow

No Classes Today Wednesday February 23, 2011. 

Seems the snow is just going to get worse as the night goes on, so stay home and stay safe.

LWMA Kids: Homework!

The theme for this week is Homework!  Homework is never easy but there are things that we can do to help make it better.  Make sure to limit the amount of distraction children have while doing their work; while it’s their (children’s) work, parents should remain interested in the assignments their kids are doing, help them out by finding out what they have to do each night, check on them from time to time while hey work and remember to help them double check all work! We also recommend that any weekend homework gets finished FRIDAY night so that both parents and kids have the weekend to enjoy being a family!

LWMA Training: Tabata Variations

Don’t have room at home to do a full Tabata sprint? Here are some other exercises that can be done in place of the sprint using the same Tabata method (20 sec high intensity followed by 10 sec rest for 8 cycles): Jump rope, punching heavy bag, kicking heavy bag, pushups, running in place, or squats.  Don’t let the lack of room keep you from training!

LWMA Kids: Cleaning Up!

The theme for this week’s kid’s class is “Cleaning Up”.  Everything for cleaning their rooms, to just picking a jacket up off the floor, kids always need help in remember that the better you take care of something the longer it lasts.  Parents should remember that while it’s a constant battle to get kids to stay neat, it is a lesson that will eventually stay with their child into adult hood and will always serve them well.  Kids should work extra hard this week to get those rooms clean and show that they are listening!

Fantastic first test of the New Year!  Testing results will be posted Monday.
