Comments on: Are You A Positive Parent? http://www.bingnote.com/blog/how-positive-a-parent-are-you Helping parents to inspire their children Sun, 18 Jul 2010 00:23:59 -0400 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: The Schoolmarm http://www.bingnote.com/blog/how-positive-a-parent-are-you/comment-page-1#comment-492 The Schoolmarm Thu, 04 Dec 2008 18:13:03 +0000 http://www.bingnote.com/?p=470#comment-492 Christina, I agree that Arlene Richards, author of That's Bingzy, has a unique way of reaching children through music. She is a terrific teacher and young kids respond enthusiastically to her songs. Having a positive outlook on life is a gift that most of us have to work to receive. It seems to be easier to give in to the negative, rather than look for that tiny bit of silver hiding under that dark cloud. It is all about what you choose to focus on. It's a learning process, but sounds like you are well on your way. Bingzy sends a big buzzing hello to your little guy, with love!

I started really getting into having a more positive mindest and being more positive in my speech when my son was born. I have a list of affirmations that we say together and I always try to be mindful of the way I speak to him even when I'm angry. I wasn't given that so much when I was a child and I love my parents dearly. You can't unring a bell so that is why I LOVE That's Bingzy for my son! As soon as I opened the box it came in he couldn't wait to read it. The pictures are so colorful and the accompanying CD is filled with memorable and musical songs. The messages given to young readers are so positive and uplifting. My son is 3 going on 4 and when he starts to throw a tantrum or he dares to say, "I can't do it" about something that he's trying to do, (this may sound silly) I start singing track #10 -"I Believe I Can" to him and it's like he forgets that he's upset and he gets into a more positive mind frame. Giving him Bingzy was like giving him I didn't get as a child. Progressive parenting...I like that!
