BEDTIME Food For My Melon

Bedtime Food for My Melon is one in a series of children's book designed to be educational, motivational, and inspirational and to help parents spark conversation with their children. The author, Dr. Michael Procaccini started with 20 morning affirmations on his ride to school with his girls. He found these affirmations could later be used in different situations that either helped diffuse a problem or educate and help develop a positive or winning attitude in his girls. For example the affirmation “Winners always get up" is used when the girls get kicked on the soccer field, cry and potentially want to quit. He'll ask his girls (while they are crying)"what do winners do?" Although somewhat reluctantly they say “Winners always get up” and go back into the game. "I make great decisions easily" is the affirmation and is asked "are you making a great decision right now” when the girls are misbehaving or not making a great choice. "I am confident" is the affirmation but when the girls are unsure or say I can't do something, he'll remind them by saying “I thought you told me I am confident this morning" When he started rhyming the affirmations this book was born. Hopefully “Bedtime Food For My Melon” will help you instill good morals and ethics as well as instill confidence and develop a successful attitude in your children.
