Teaching Your Kids to "Fear Not" This Halloween...or Anytime!

Whether you celebrate Halloween or not, it’s hard to escape the season.  All you have to do is walk into Walmart, and an evil witch with green skin and fiery eyes is there to greet you.  Take a few more steps and you run into the aisle covered with ghoulish sounds and fake bloody knives.  I’m all for a some good pumpkin fun, but the scary stuff can … [Read more...]

Afraid of the Water?

by admin 17 Comments

Unless they were born in the water and came out swimming, most children develop a healthy fear of the water at a young age. Sure they would give anything for the opportunity to swim every day in the heat of summer, but you better make sure to bring those floaties!
