Hosting young children during the holidays can create some risks around the house you might not think of. Creating a safe, functional home, especially in areas like the laundry room, kitchen, medicine cabinet, and bedrooms, is essential for the whole family. Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/VsVRA-qIWTg As an example, a survey by the American Cleaning Institute, from 2024, showed that 36% of Americans use decorative jars or containers to enhance their laundry space, a trend made popular on social media. However, putting products into clear jars or containers for aesthetic purposes is one way you may be unintentionally putting children at risk.   In this mini episode, Brian Sansoni, Senior Vice President, Communications, Outreach and Membership at the American Cleaning Institute and Torine Creppy, President of Safe Kids Worldwide show us how to help parents create safe and child-friendly spaces without sacrificing aesthetics. Both highlight the importance of proper use of cleaning products and the dos and don'ts of storing them, additional items to keep an eye out for throughout the home and areas to prioritize safety. Whether you're organizing, revamping, or preparing to bring a new baby home, ACI and Safe Kids have the resources, including a new safety guide, to help get your home in tip-top safety shape without scarifying style.  About American Cleaning Institute:  ACI is a non-profit organization.  Established in 1926, ACI is dedicated to advancing public understanding of the safety and benefits of cleaning products, and protecting the ability of its members to formulate products that best meet consumer needs. ACI serves both its members and the public by developing and sharing information about industry products with the technical community, policy makers, childcare and health professionals, educators, media and consumers.

How would you feel if your child WANTED to go to school over the summer or was sad when school was closed for a snow day? Mimosa Jones Tunney speaks to the Teaching Your Toddler show about the curriculum that is inspiring kids across the country to WANT to learn, who love school and who get sad for snow days and summer break. Can you imagine? Mimosa is a writer, researcher and the founder of both the American Emergent Curriculum and The School House, a private elementary school in New York. She's also a former political speech and Hollywood television writer as well as an avid philanthropist.  She's also our favorite kind of guest - an activated mom! She saw the deficiency in public education where schools "dumb down" kids and "teach to the test" instead of what she calls "smart up" the kids and teaching to their interests and passions that keeps them loving learning throughout their school life. Over 300,000 teachers per year leave the profession, often out of frutration. The curriculum The School House offers can be used by homeschoolers, "micro-schools"/learning pods as well as brick and mortar schools. This curriculum is so inspiring for kids and so successful, it could inspire those teachers back to the classroom.  So far, communities using this curriculum have appeared in Texas and Florida, and continue to spread across the country. The school is private and continues to beat the state test scores, without ever teaching to the test, because the kids LOVE learning. Mimosa also noted that in their school, they do not allow politics or gossip from the teachers so that everyone feels welcomed and the school can concentrate on learning. It's truly a novel approach that addresses children's learning stages and their areas of interest.  This approach also often alleviates or eliminates typicial learning challenges that children display due to the antiquated approach most typical public schools take for learning.  To find out more about Mimosa, The School House and American Emergent Curriculum, visit the links below.  https://www.instagram.com/mimosajonestunney/ https://www.tshanywhere.org/ https://www.americanemergentcurriculum.org/ https://www.theschoolhouse.org/ Please like and subscribe to our podcast and leave a 5-star review so we can reach more parents like you!

Have you ever asked yourself or your family, "How full am I?" BEFORE a meal? Our guest today suggests doing just that to help understand how different our bodies feel before and after eating as a way to regulate your body using Lifestyle Habits. She also says the scale isn't always right - listen to the episode to find out why.  Our guest today, Sam Cutler, is a Harvard-trained nutritional health coach as well as the founder and CEO of the lifestyle medicine app, www.MINDFULL.so According to the website www.MINDFULL.so is "a meal planning and health coaching app where [Sam] guides thousands of women to live a life of food freedom, walking away from counting and tracking towards a life of eating primarily whole, nourishing foods." In this episode Sam discusses the importance of lifestyle habits as primary medicine for health. She emphasizes the role of food in this and shared her personal experiences with a health-conscious upbringing and the challenges she faced when she left home. Sam highlights the benefits of involving children in the cooking process and encouraging them to understand the benefits of different nutrients. She also discusses the value of being mindful of one's body and emotions, especially during hormonal fluctuations. Sam discusses the importance of incorporating anti-inflammatory foods into our diet to regulate bodily inflammation, which can impact various aspects of health, including hormones, mood, energy levels, and bowel movements. She explains that inflammation can lead to the development of chronic conditions and diseases. Sam recommends incorporating foods like turmeric, ginger, leafy greens, and fermented items like sauerkraut and kimchi into their diet to support gut health, which in turn can lower inflammation. Sam emphasizes that small changes in daily habits, such as incorporating more whole foods into the diet, can have a significant impact on health. She also discusses the role of stress and the need to lower it, as well as the influence of environmental factors on health.  Sam discusses the importance of healthy meal choices and the challenges of meal preparation. She proposes a simplified approach to meal planning and preparation, focusing on ingredient preparation and ratio assessment to ensure balanced meals. She emphasizes the value of having flexible, repeat ingredients to reduce waste and allow for customization. She also suggests the use of an air fryer for quick and easy vegetable preparation.  Sam mentions the practice of "extending" leftovers into new meals like soups or salads to prevent food waste and emphasized listening to your body's intuitive hunger and nutritional cravings, which fluctuate based on factors like activity levels, stress, menstrual cycles, and mental energy. She explains that increased demands necessitate more nourishment, rather than attributing it to "stress eating."  Sam is offering the TYT listeners 50% off their first month of the www.MINDFULL app using the promo code "Toddler50" so check it out here!  Find Sam here: Her website: thefitfatale.com Instagram: @thefitfatale Facebook: thefitfatale Tik tok: thefitfatale   Please like and subscribe to our podcast and leave a 5-star review so we can reach more parents like you!

Stefanie Hohl, M.Ed., has been teaching children to read for years. She holds advanced degrees in both children's literature and early childhood education, and she has experience running preschool, homeschool, and local storytime programs. Stefanie developed the ABC See, Hear, Do Learn-to-Read method to make early reading fun and easy for kids and their parents. Stefanie lives in Pittsburgh with her husband, five children, two very silly dogs and two cuddly cats. The program combines visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles and has shown to increase learning and retention by 90%. In this episode, Stefanie also shares her journey of developing a parent-friendly reading method and emphasizes the benefits of incorporating movement into learning. Stefanie emphasizes the importance of building a strong foundation in phonics before third grade to prevent kids from falling behind and struggling in school, as reading is essential for learning across subjects. The research shows phonics is the best way for kids to learn reading, though many schools have abandoned this approach, leading to an alarming percentage of students not being at grade level. Stefanie's program consists of seven levels designed to make learning fun through games, activities, and books that teach letter sounds and different phonics patterns in a multisensory way. We discuss the importance of parents selecting age-appropriate early readers for their children and the early signs of reading disabilities. Stefanie also shares details about her Christmas-themed books and her journey from her master's in education to becoming a writer. Enjoy the show!

Wondering what the signs are that your child may potentially struggle with dyslexia? You HAVE to listen to our interview with Robin Zikmund, a mom-advocate from the Institute for Multi-Sensory Education (IMSE). It's estimated that about 20% of kids struggle with dyslexia; that's one out of five! AND - it's hereditary, so if someone in your child's family struggled with dyslexia, that could mean your child is more likely to struggle too. There's a spectrum for dyslexia too so there's a huge range to how much it might affect someone. Early intervention is KEY, Robin says so this episode is even more important if you have little ones - like before age 5! While this episode is not meant as a diagnosis, Robin will help you start looking for some of the earliest signs of one of the most common learning challenges - she will also help you understand what your next steps are to get the support you need from your child's school. Robin's story of her son's frustration with reading and learning to the point of complete defeat, will break your heart, but also her drive to get to the bottom of what was happening and eventually "educating the educators" will inspire you to advocate for your child too. She mentions the Orton-Gillingham methods which you can find out about on the IMSE's website here. https://imse.com/ She also mentions Emily Hanford's podcast called Sold A Story found here: https://features.apmreports.org/sold-a-story/ Robin serves as the Dyslexia Advocate and Community Engagement Manager for IMSE, the Institute for Multi-Sensory Education - a literacy training company focused on the science of reading. She is also the founder of Decoding Dyslexia Idaho, a grassroots movement that aims to increase access to educational interventions and teacher professional development for dyslexia and other language-based learning disabilities in public schools.  Institute for Multi-Sensory Education (IMSE) Website: https://imse.com/ Institute for Multi-Sensory Education (IMSE) Journal: https://journal.imse.com/ Decoding Dyslexia Idaho: https://www.decodingdyslexiaidaho.org/ Robin Zikmund LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robin-zikmund-50a379141/ Please like and subscribe to our podcast and leave a 5-star review so we can reach more parents like you!

The workforce market is evolving, and this year we'll see more employers begin to move away from the emphasis on four-year degree requirements to greater recognition of valuable skills. However, there are sizeable skill and opportunity gaps for workers illustrated in the results of the University of Phoenix's recent Career Optimism Index® study. The Index showed that while more than half of Americans are seeking their next career move, 70% would prefer to stay in their company if they were given more opportunities to learn and apply new skills.   Studies by workforce research leaders McKinsey and Deloitte make the case for focusing on skills as well.  In this episode, Doris Savron, vice provost of Colleges, Assessment and Curriculum at University of Phoenix, discusses the transition to skills-based hiring in the workforce. She also talks about how workers can leverage their skills, employers can develop talent, and education leaders can empower learners and job seekers in this new era of skills-based hiring.   Doris Savron, Vice Provost, Colleges, Assessment and Curriculum, University of Phoenix Doris Savron has over 23 years of experience in higher education in a variety of settings.

In her tenure with University of Phoenix she has served as associate faculty, campus vice president, regional Vice president of student services, and college operations.    Doris is a first-generation college graduate with her parents never finishing high school and saw first-hand the struggles a lack of education creates for some families, and the benefits and opportunities a degree brings to future generations. She understands the unique challenges that older adult students encounter trying to navigate their life responsibilities while also earning their degrees.   Doris is passionate about giving back to the community and serves on several boards including Career Connectors and Propenum College in Lusaka, Zambia, and recently completing a six-year term on Greater Phoenix Chamber of Commerce.  Doris is often sought out as a speaker for her expertise on mapping relevant skills in programs and building an infrastructure to support career tools in curriculum design, micro credentialing and other innovations in curriculum (1Ed Tech, PACRAO). Doris's significant contributions in her profession, mentoring, and community leadership led to being selected as Greater Phoenix Chamber's Private Sector Athena Finalist in 2020. Her advocacy for women in leadership has led her to project work in India, Zambia and the U.S. supporting women to achieve their potential in their profession.

So your child is acting up or suddenly exhibiting signs of autism or allergies · what if I told you a change in diet and strengthening their gut biome could alleviate or even eliminate these symptoms? That's what our guest is going to help you learn about in this episode. Talk about the power of one person – several years ago, one mom Zen Honeycutt had an idea for organizing moms all over America to unite against the things she saw happening right before her eyes with her own 3 sons – experiencing symptoms of allergies and autism. She realized moms needed to hear about the dangers of engineered foods as well as the chemicals, pesticides, and fungicides they spray on the food, and to have a place to reach out to each other, support each other and learn from each other. So she founded Moms Across America .org whose website introduces them as “a national coalition of unstoppable moms” and she is also the author of Unstoppable: Transforming Sickness and Struggle into Triumph, Empowerment and a Celebration of Community published in 2018. She's going to talk to us today about solving childhood issues using good food, food safety, the difference between non-GMO and organic foods, the dangers of school lunches and community food cooperatives. The woman Robert Kennedy Jr called the modern-day Rachel Carson, please welcome Zen Honeycutt.
