Learning to Swim

Sunday, November 4th, 2007

With summer approaching fast many parents will think about swimming lessons for their child. It’s a great idea so act on it now and book those lessons. Learning to swim is a vital skill for all ages, especially children!

We started Pod Squad baby classes with my little boy when he was nearly 6 months. They teach fantastic water safety techniques as well as making the whole experience of learning to swim fun for the kids. Couldn’t recommend it more highly!

If you can’t make it to Pod Squad then check out www.swimaustralia.org.au for your nearest registered swim school.

On your bike

Wondering how you can get the spring off to a good start well here’s a top idea which eveyone should do!

Take a bike ride in Centenial Park…

Cycling is good for your health and for the environment. With a 3.8 kilometer bike path around the Centennial Park’s Grand Drive it’s ideal for all levels - even those who have not ridden a bike for a while!

Don’t have bikes, no need to worry just hire one!

You can hire bikes in Centennial Park from the two places listed below so there is no excuses!

Healthy Food For Kids - new website!

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007

There’s a great new website just been launched which helps parent’s get to the bottom of what foods are healthy for your kids!

Check out www.choicefoodforkids.com.au to get all the low down on which are the most healthy breads, breakfast cereals, drinks and snacks. One of the great things about it is the reports are all by independent dietitians and nutritionists so you can be assured that there is no bias or hidden sponsorship! The site also has a handy shopping guide and details about nutritional daily intake.

Sanitarium Weet-bix Kids gets a big thumbs up so I’ll know what I’ll be buying on the next trip to the supermarket.

The website is affiliated with www.choice.com.au which is also definately worth a visit. It has hundreds of independant tests and reports on everything from fridges to car insurance!
