I truly believe that family vacations are a necessity. When our kids were younger, we used to go camping at state parks, and they thought it was the best thing ever!

THE WAY TO DEAL WITH KIDS IS BY INTRODUCING THEM TO NEW FOODS WITH SOMETHING THEY LOVE, ADDING THE NEW INGREDIENT INTO THAT FOOD SO THEY GO FOR IT. How can I easily add more whole grains into my family’s meals?

Some of you may take umbrage at things I consider wants, and that is OK. Last summer in my Grandma Rie’s Money Camp, we gave the 3 kids advertisements from the Sunday paper and asked them first to identify and cut out things that were needs; and then to do the same with things that were wants. Is butter a need or a want?
