daily yoga with my children, painting using different mediums and cooking

My son and I decided to take on a challenge recently. We chose to do a 30 day Yoga challenge where we wake up at 6:00am and do Yoga before school.  I am proud to say that he has shown up on the mat everyday regardless if he is tired, sore or simply does not want to. I think this challenge is so important because it is teaching our whole family to invest in themselves. It is a life lesson I believe children need to learn.  I am new to the art of painting and have developed a passion for it.  I  believe art is another way of communicating and can be a great way to connect.  I have recently started the Art Therapy Certified program and believe this will be a huge asset in working with children.
