There is and has been a swirling cloud of controversy surrounding whether or not parents should reward their children for earning good grades in school.

My kids like watching the other kids exercise and feel motivated. We found an acrobatic yoga DVD that is specifically for a child and parent. Typically, the parent takes the pose and the child joins or the parent and child work together in tandem. Use exercise DVDs that involve the kids. My daughter loves yoga.

Getting up in the morning can be so hard for children and parents alike. While pep talks from small children may not always be motivating, they can be very entertaining. Parents may read books to young children, but once the child’s reading skills improve, the child might read to their parents instead.
