Raising Healthy Kids That Love Natural Living - a podcast by Dr. Eric Zielinski and Sabrina Zielinski (Dr. Z and Mama Z)
from 2019-07-01T09:00
In this episode, we’re talking all about how to raise children that love natural living. Raising healthy kids in a world that regularly gives out sugar as a reward can be challenging but that doesn’t make it any less important.
Don’t feel overwhelmed by this topic. In this podcast, we’ll break down exactly what we do that has helped our children choose healthy habits.
Kids see everything we do, which is why we make sure to include our children into all aspects of our lives.
In fact, actively pursuing our own dreams with God’s leading has matured our children. For example, we involve our kids with Mama Z’s pageants!
Over the years, this has helped them learn to value hard work, perseverance, and good sportsmanship – which is badly needed in today’s society.
Even without such an exciting event, it’s important to do routine daily tasks with our kids too. Everyday things like gardening, cooking, and cleaning can be as important to do together as creating our own natural living traditions for special events, like vacations and holidays.
We share strategies on how we reward our kids for living the natural lifestyle in ways that speak to them and allow them to participate in community activities. We don’t let them cheat with junk food but proactively find ways that encourage our kids to be responsible for their own health.
And we are honest about the reasons for that when they ask difficult questions about it. #HonestyMatters
We want our children to enjoy life. When we work hard, play hard, and honor God around and with our kids, we teach them to live life abundantly!
