Boys Good Health  Kit
Kids are hearing all about sex on TV, in movies,
the internet, music.  They are inundated!  
Ironically,  they still don't know the facts.  Our
kids don't need more entertainment....
They Need Information!
  • 20 Questions is NOT for Kids:  To build better
    communications with your teenager, try avoiding
    bombarding them with questions as soon as they get
    home.  Instead, let them come home and unwind.  
    Instead of a battery of questions, tell them about
    your day and see if they don't offer snippets about
    their own day.

  • Arguing Can Be Beneficial:  Believe it or not, teens
    arguing with their parents does have its benefits.  
    Teens argue with their parents usually to try to
    persuade them to let them do something, go
    somewhere, be with certain people.  The teens who
    argue are the ones who really don't want to disobey
    or lie, so they try to persuade or "argue" their point.  
    Unfortunately, they will usually go ahead and do it
    anyway - but at least you know they have a
    conscience.  Arguing  is dialogue with your child,
    and if you listen to their argument,  you can get an
    idea as to what they are up to.

  • Teens Lie.  Surprised??? Yes, they do but in a lot
    of cases they lie to their parents because they don't
    want to disappoint them.

  • "Bits 'n Pieces" are better than a whole bite. Don't
    overwhelm your kids with info.

  • Anywhere is perfect.  It doesn't matter where you
    talk to your kids as long as you are talking.

  • "I remember..." Use your own personal experiences
    and share how it felt when you were a teenager.
    Times may have changed but the emotions are the
    same. Let your kid know you can relate.

  • Use our Period Pieces Kit or Good Health Kit for
    Boys as an icebreaker.

  • Add personal items and gifts to the Period Pieces
    Kit - pictures, body spray, lip gloss, words of love
    and encouragement - and make your daughter's first
    period a special occasion.

  • Do the same with the Boys Kit. Make it a present
    and use the opportunity to start your talk using the
    items in the Kit
  • Discuss with your boy what the "3Rs" mean to you.

Basic Roadmap
    The Changing & Growing Seminar & Workshops
     are designed to provide all  the basic, practical  information
    that your kids need to learn - in a safe, controlled
    environment - free from embarrassment or harm.


  • The C&G Seminars & Workshops are designed to
    provide preteens (ages 8 – 14) with the information
    and tools necessary to successfully navigate the
    transition into adulthood.
  • The presentation focuses on the physical and
    emotional changes that occur during puberty. It
    provides the facts necessary to foster responsible
    growth in both knowledge and confidence in the
    preteen girl.

    The courses also provide preteens with the essential
    information to initiate a dialogue with a parent or a trusted
    adult when necessary.

    Information is presented in a supportive non-threatening
    environment utilizing language appropriate to the girl’s age
    and cognitive level.  
Did you Know...
Change is always hard and puberty is all about change.  Change causes anxiety and stress and that's especially true for
children experiencing puberty.  

Our research shows that  teaching children about puberty reduces stress and anxiety and promotes self-esteem.  Anxiety and
stress contributes to decrease academic performance and absenteeism.  

“Educational research shows that school performance is as much a function of social and psychological experiences
(Cavanagh, 2007)”.  

“The building of self-esteem can enhance student learning, skill development and improve self-care behavior (O’Dea, 2002).”

When students who completed The Changing and Growing Seminar were asked on an evaluation “Do you feel more confident
in dealing with the changes of puberty”  99% said yes!
