Creating Balance in Your Child's Life

Beth's book saved my relationship with my youngest boy when I discovered that he is an intuitve, thinking type when it comes to temperament; one of the most challening types of children to raise. Beth taught me how to look at my child's actions from a different point of view so I wouldn't take certain behaviors personally and could deal with them more creatively--for both of our sakes. In fact, I consulted with her personally and she was an incredible help to my husband and me. I highly recommend this book to all parents who are truly interested in raising the child you were given instead of forcing a personality on him or her. Great book!

I just finished this book and it was full of wonderful teachings to apply to children. It equipped me with a new set of eyes for observing and guiding children into a balanced and healthy life. On-top of the abundance of information this book provided it was full of helpful references on specific topics which was very helpful as well. I would recommend this book to anyone that has children or works with them in anyway.

What a wonderful book! It is a holistic, comprehensive, user-friendly tool for parents, teachers and health care practitioners. Beth is an intelligent and down to earth writer. She acknowledges children with the same respect as adults and reminds us that children are the bearers of light. If we provide the right environment for them, they will be illuminated throughout their lives.

As a mother of 2 daughters with completely different temperaments, this book is a life saver. Author, Beth Wilson Saavedra, provides parents with a wonderful guide to determining your childs temperament and suggests activities to go along with each. Finally a book that understands that each child IS different and must be nurtered in different ways. So turn off the TV and go camping.....and read this book before you go!

Creating Balance in Your Child's Life is a wonderful guide for parents to improve the quality of life not only for their children, but for themselves. Author, Beth Wilson Saavedra reminds us to view our children as unique individuals whose needs vary according to their temperaments, and she encourages us to devise schedules based on who our children are, encouraging them to be the best they can be. Included in Creating Balance in Your Child's Life are wonderful suggestions for creating unrushed time; time to connect with our children in meaningful ways. Wilson Saavedra obviously understands the pressures parents face today and she gives us a useful and creative perspective for dealing with our busy schedules.
