Pack A Lunch Your Children Are Sure To Eat

I don't always get the chance to point to articles that I am quoted in, but Mark Wigmore from the Toronto Sun did such a great job of writing up our interview about packing school lunches, including so many actionable tips that I wanted to be sure the information was up on my website too! With the school year just around the corner, this is a timely article to help you get the school year lunches off on the right track.

"Thanks again Alyson, It has been one day past (the bootcamp) and I have started working on some of the strategies on my kids and I tell you IT IS WORKING. It's a miracle. You are a life saver"

"I wanted to let you know how much my husband and I enjoyed your  boot camp. Initially he only went to make me happy (smart guy!), but in the end he was glad that he went. It really helped him to understand what I had read in your books and that will make a huge difference to how we parent as a team, which is often half the battle."

"The time in class just flew by. I felt like I was talking with a friend - a really wise friend. I was really feeling discouraged about how to parent "the middle child" but now I feel so much lighter, like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders.  Even if I don't get it right every time I'm feeling inspired to keep at it. With four kids I know that my change in attitude will only be an asset to all the tools we picked up this weekend."

"I've said it before, but I wish every single parent would learn about the Adlerian approach to parenting. I'm definately going to try and encourage my friends to attend. I  learned so much from the November weekend. Our day to day parenting has become so easy. We have fewer issues and when they  do arise, problems or possible meltdowns are quickly diffused  through consistency and encouragement."
