COOL SITES

The MotherVerse Blog is a collaborative of 7 mama-writers and regular guest bloggers from across the US and world. Together they have just launched their Be Heard! Campaign allowing mothers from across the globe to submit a short work about their lives to the blog to be published. Stop by there for more information.

Looking for a good food fight? Eat Better America is a free web site designed to provide useful recipes, nutrition, and fitness advice for an overall healthier lifestyle. To make learning fun, they have designed the The Good Food Fight to help raise awareness of the healthy recipes featured there.

Looking for some tips on getting your kids to eat healthier? Wendy’s has created a website called Mom-RD where registered dietitians teach parents how to better feed their families. Go check it out!

Time to Talk is a site that provides parents and caregivers with the resources they want and need to protect their children and understand their behavior. Maintaining an open dialogue with children throughout their teen years is a key component in keeping them safe, healthy and drug free.
