Book excerpt: The measure of a society's health is how well it takes care of the youngest generation. By this standard, we fail. But All Kids Are Our Kids offers an approach to unleash the extraordinary power of community when people unite around a widely shared vision of healthy child and adolescent development. All Kids Are Our Kids introduces forty Developmental Assets—building blocks of healthy development that are essential for all youth, regardless of their background. The challenge for all segments of the community—families, neighbors, schools, congregations, employers, youth organizations, and more—is to share in the responsibility for taking action to ensure that all kids have what they need to grow up healthy, successful, and caring. This new edition includes new evidence, cites successful cases, and makes recommendations for energizing individuals, families, and community action. Praise for All Kids Are Our Kids "A practical, concrete blueprint for helping young people succeed because of supportive communities." —Donald T. Floyd, Jr., president and CEO, National 4-H Council "For two decades, Peter Benson has been America's most eloquent and persuasive voice for a new, positive approach to enhancing the lives of our nation's youth. If policy makers, practitioners, and researchers read only one book about how to act in support of our nation's youth, then this is it!" —Richard M. Lerner, Bergstrom Chair in Applied Developmental Science and director, Institute forApplied Research in Youth Development, Eliot-Pearson Department of Child Development, Tufts University "Peter Benson continues to remind us of how far short of the mark we have fallen in meeting the needs of our youngest generation. But then he provides a gift: a unifying vision that we can all rally around: parents, neighbors, youth-serving organizations, and ultimately whole communities committed to the healthy development of all our kids." —Judy Vredenburgh, president and CEO, Big Brothers Big Sisters of America "Benson's approach is the best formula we have for building communities to meet the developmental needs of young people. Anyone who is concerned about the future of our society should read this book." —William Damon, professor of education, Stanford University, and director, Stanford Center on Adolescence

Download or read book Best 100 Juices for Kids written by Jessica Fisher and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Juicing machines, and books about how to get the most from them, are selling in tremendous numbers. Best 100 Juices for Kids brings the juicing revolution home for everyone in the family--not just mom and dad. Jessica Fisher's imaginative and tasty recipes give parents terrific and super-nutritious alternatives both to cheap juices loaded with high fructose corn syrup, on one hand, and to healthy but very pricey store-bought gourmet juices on the other. For fruit- and vegetable-averse kids, they also offer a way to "sneak" produce into a kid's diet in a way that the child actually will enjoy. Older kids and teens, too, will have fun trying out the juicing machine in the kitchen, using these recipes as a starting point. Seventy of the 100 recipes are for juices, with about 45 fruit- based and 25 vegetable-based. Half of the remaining 30 are luscious and creamy smoothies, including several dairy-free vegan options. "Sparklies," which are club soda-based carbonated drinks, give parents great ways to replace artificially flavored soda pop, full of processed sugar, with homemade pop made with natural sweeteners. For the hot summer months, when kids are most likely to reach for sugary drinks, there are recipes for icy slushies and refreshing juice-based ice pops. Throughout, Fisher tested the recipes on both low-end and high-end juicers, and she provides expert guidance on how readers can get the best results from whatever model of machine they own"--
