Get the whole family involved with Family Challenges!
At the end of each session, there is a family challenge that gives you ideas and an opportunity to put the workshop session into practice at home. Much of this e-course fit in with things that we were talking about in science with our younger two, so it was a great addition for us.
In the image above, you’ll notice a peek at the challenge for week 1 – Traffic Light Eating. In this challenge, the family takes local grocery store sales flyers, cuts out food items from the flyers and then sorts them as a green, yellow, or red light food based on what was learned in the weekly session. This activity is a great hands-on and visual tool for identifying foods that are a ‘go’ {green light}, foods to be careful with {yellow light}, and food to rethink and see if there is a better alternative {red light}.
Essentially, the family challenges are a great way to get everyone in the home involved in the learning process. As you involve your kids, especially with hands-on activities, they will internalize the concepts more quickly and remember them in the future.

Here is what moms are saying about my eWorkshops:
“Dr. Sears’ L.E.A.N. course with coach, Ana Willis, is helping me put my desires for a healthy family into action. I can’t say enough about the original, fun ideas I’ve received from the course to easily convey to my kids the importance of health. After only one session, my son is automatically noticing and differentiating between different types of food. I love that our coach is not only accessible, but experienced and engaging.” – Shalle B. from Austin, TX.
“I love Dr Sears approach in teaching. Very user friendly and simplified. I had my grand kids watch it with me. My grandson did his own activity, I’ll forward you a picture. It was cute and he definitely got it. He is 6 yrs. old. Thank you for offering this, I feel blessed to be able to do it.” – Maria L. from Escondido, CA.
“I really enjoyed this class. I’m going to prepare that activity (Traffic Light Eating) for my daughter to cut out foods and then place on the red, yellow, or green paper. We can then leave it up in kitchen, it will be a good visual! I’m glad I’m doing this!” – Monique S. from Clarksville, TN.
