Dear MetroFamily Subscriber,
Our March issue will hit stands starting this Friday. Inside you will find over 50 ideas for Spring Break fun including camps, programs and destinations and ideas for becoming a "greener" family.
Also, there is a Q&A with our Parent University speaker, Dawn Billings, who gives numerous reasons you will benefit greatly by attending our
Parent University on March 30th. For example, she does not believe you should ever praise your children. Find out the important difference between "praise" and "noticing" and why it can make a HUGE difference to you as a parent.
