Publisher's summary

Prepare your children for the life ahead by making sure they are healthy, happy, and well-disciplined with this comprehensive guidebook on parenting!

Raising toddlers and preschoolers can be challenging, particularly if you don’t know how to deal with their tantrums and hardheadedness. From teaching them basic chores and reinforcing bad behaviors to introducing healthy eating and fitness, all these require hard work and patience!

You, as a parent, have the responsibility of guiding and equipping them with the proper mindset to make sure they are physically and mentally healthy.

Fortunately, there are effective strategies that can help you raise healthy children without relying on outdated parenting methods that bring more harm than good.

Inside this essential book on raising healthy kids, you'll discover:

  • How early health contributes to lifelong health–and why you must prioritize your child’s health to support their development.
  • Reasons why kids are always sick, and common illnesses and their treatment.
  • How to create a kid’s healthy eating plate with the proper amounts of macronutrients and micronutrients–and tips on how to deal with picky eaters.
  • Why kids need to get the right amount of sleep to help them grow–and childhood sleep guidelines based on age, along with tips for healthy sleep habits.
  • Teamwork skills for you and your partner: problem-solving, conflict management, communication, support, and more.
  • The many benefits of exercise for children, and ways to encourage them to become physically active–plus, a list of easy indoor exercises for kids.
  • How to positively discipline your child with compassion–and the relationship between rewards and reinforcing good behavior.

And much more....

It’s time you see them grow into better and healthier adults by prioritizing health, nutrition, fitness, and living a healthy lifestyle.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Wholesome & insightful

I really liked the approach, and it’s an important subject. Right away the author said “healthy economies depend on healthy children”! I totally agree with the entire book. Great ideas and a must for parents. I can’t pick a favorite chapter because they were all equally good and relevant.

The Handbook For Raising Children

The saying goes that you are not given a handbook when you leave the hospital about how to raise that child. This will be the best purchase new parents could have as support. Life is complicated with so many issues a child didn't have 10 or 20 years ago. If they are given a solid foundation young, they can stand and become a valuable part of society as adults. Parenting is hard work and can be overwhelming, but this book will help put your mind at ease. It delivers communication skills and tips for each age group. Positive discipline techniques that encourage self-discipline and self-confidence in their abilities. It discusses the importance of exercise, rest, and healthy eating to provide healthy bodies. Lastly, it gives a rundown of the various options for education to fit the needs you want satisfied. This book perfectly mixes the necessary basics without overwhelming a new parent.

informative

This guide gives lots of great information on being able to raise healthy children. I like that it has a section for self care for parents. Every parent has experienced stress and it's important to make sure you're in the right mental state as well as the children. The book has a very informative section on child nutrition that I recommend for all parents. A guide like this is perfect for new parents.

A Must-Listen for Any Parent!

As a father to a 2.5 year old son, I was looking for some guidance on how to raise a healthy and confident child. This audiobook, "Raising Healthy Children - Nine Steps to Parenting Confident Children," was exactly what I needed!

The three key highlights presented in the book really stood out to me. Firstly, the book emphasizes the importance of spending quality time with your child to build a strong relationship with them. As a busy dad, this was a wake-up call for me to make sure I prioritize spending quality time with my son.

Secondly, the book discusses the importance of praising your child's effort, not just their achievements. This really resonated with me, as I want to make sure my son feels confident and encouraged to keep trying, even if he doesn't always succeed.

Lastly, the book highlights the importance of parents taking care of their own physical and mental health. As a dad, I sometimes forget to take care of myself, but this book reminded me that prioritizing my well-being is crucial to being the best caregiver for my child.

Overall, my main takeaway from this audiobook is that by following the practical tips outlined in each of the nine steps, parents can create an environment that fosters their child's growth, development, and well-being.

The narrator was such a pleasure to listen to, and I found myself fully engaged in the content throughout the entire audiobook. I would highly recommend "Raising Healthy Children" to any parent looking for practical and effective strategies to raise a healthy and confident child.

Great book

No parent comes with a manual! This is a well structured book with clear chapters on different subjects from getting your kids nutrition right to teaching them the art of conversation. I liked the part about providing your child with encouragement to achieve their dreams. Kids can often lack in confidence but this book highlights the importance of encouragement and support

Useful information for parents

Having never had children before, when we had our son, we wanted to learn as much as possible to make sure we can give him the best life. This audible was well narrated, easy to follow and provided lots of really useful information and strategies to help with raising a healthy child. The stand out chapters for us were fitness for children and proper nutrition - something as kids we never really got taught so it was really useful to know how important these areas are for their development. A must-listen for any parent in our shoes.

I really appreciate this book

Great common sense advice from a real dad. I have been looking for a parenting book from another dad. This one really fills the bill. It's great to hear the info from the standpoint of another male.

Addressing health issues have always left me second guessing myself. There is a wealth of information here that I will refer to often. And thanks to the author for crushing popular beliefs about health that just aren't true!

I also appreciate the down to earth advice on how to handle toddlers. I highly recommend this book to everyone, not just dads.

Very Helpful!

Every parent wants to do their best when raising their children, especially in raising CONFIDENT children. Sometimes, you never know where to start. I know that this audiobook is a great place to begin. Zuko (the author) goes into great detail with his nine parenting steps. Once you put his methods into place, I have no doubt you'll notice great changes in your children's health as well as their confidence. Good Luck!

It is a recommended source of information supporting normal development and providing a coaching environment essential for any parent raising a child.
