 With our 20 time project we are keep going on the track we are now because it is working very well for us. We have our list of places to visit and eat and the only problem is finding a time where both of us are free because between Madi’s cheer and my work schedule we never have the same day free. We are excited to see our final product and how we get to look at all the places we will visit that we have never been before. For our “hook” in the 20 time project I think it will be when we show how many people think Iowa is boring and just fields but we are going to show that there actually are a lot of places in Iowa that most people don’t know about. Like some of these places we are going I have never heard of before but I think that is the thing that will make it fun to talk about.

Many people that live or have visited Iowa think it is a very boring state, Madi and I are going to show that Iowa isn’t just corn and that there is many good places to visit and to eat. One of the articles I choose to support us talked about how you can get your kids up and out of the house.

The first part of the article talked about how you should try to give you child a reward when they have done something.  Later on down the page they begin to go against giving your children rewards because they can’t grow up thinking that every time they do something good they will get a reward. Also Dr Kennedy-Moore brings up that just because you give your child a reward doesn’t mean that their behavior will change on the spot or even at all. Dr Kennedy-Moore also talks about how you need to show interest in the little things your child does. Such has the child waking up to their own alarm and getting ready for school on their own so you don’t feel rushed in the morning.

I think that kids should have to go out and do things they shouldn’t just stay inside and do nothing.  Many kids nowadays like to just hang out inside and play video games and play on their phones but there’s always time for that, but when the sun is out and it beautiful outside they should drop all that and go outside. I really want to push kids to go outside more because I love being outside like during the summer i’m always outside. My family goes camping all the time, go to lost island, adventure-land, etc.
