Letter From the Publisher

Greetings, Happy November! I can't believe the holidays are fast approaching. I am not ready and feel very unorganized - Luckily, local professional organizer Amy Bergman has some handy tips to help me get my home and life ready. I also have done ZERO holiday shopping. If you are like me, don't panic; check out our Local Holiday Gift Guide with some fun gift ideas and a great way to support local businesses.

Let's not skip over Thanksgiving, though. It is a great time to reflect on what we are thankful for and help our children learn to express thankfulness. For tips on how to instill these values, check out page 8.

The holiday season also means germ season! RSV cases are up in the community, and our friends at After Hours Pediatrics have tips about RSV to help if your child becomes sick. Hopefully, everyone will stay healthy!

The staff here at PB Parenting hopes you have a wonderful Thanksgiving Holiday! We are thankful for all our readers, community partners, and supporters; without you, we would not be entering our 12th year of being your trusted local parenting resource! Thank you again!

Happy Parenting,

PB Palm Beach County’s Parenting Resource Parenting
