Thanks for making 
the “Winter Family Night”
at the Motivational Achievement Center
A Huge Success!

 a Great Turn Out,
Great Food
and 
the Most Creative, 
Fun Families 
in the School District 


and 
Lots 
of 
Crafts!






Princivalli’s 
made our awesome dinner at Family Night possible by discounting the cost. 

Have a Safe and Happy Winter Break!

 Remember H O L I D A Y S
H         Share Happy moments!  (“Special Time” – 5 minutes)
O       Organization  (Make plans – shopping, wrapping, traveling, etc.)
L        Leading  by example
I        Ignoring  (ignoring minor child misbehavior/chose battles)
D       Developing Rules   (and other clear expectations)
A       Anticipating  (try to identify the types of challenges your child may experience,  
                                     likely starting with boredom.)
Y       You  (practice good self-care and manage your own stress)

S        Structure   (Maintaining good daily routines is essential).

                              *This includes sticking to your child’s sleep and mealtime routine.                                                       *You can also create a daily schedule that includes planned activities, 
                                       downtime,  and times when any mandatory activities must be completed
                                       (school assignments, chores, etc.).                  
                              *You can be a “littlelooser” over the holidays, but don’t abandon all structure.
