Stopping Child Abuse (0:00:00)
We all have things we become passionate about as kids, whether its sports, nature, or even just eating food. But it’s not often that your childhood passion is a major world issue, like the fight against child abuse. So what is a young teenager doing to stop such a serious problem? Joining us today is perhaps the youngest guest we’ve ever had on the Lisa Show, 13 year old singer Rosevelt is also an ambassador for child abuse prevention nonprofit Child Help. Known as having "The Voice of an Angel with the Heart of a Warrior", Rosevelt is here with us to discuss what we can do to join the movement against child abuse.
Disinfecting Your Phone (0:19:24)
You just got home from the grocery store and you might be feeling kind of gross being around all those people with this pandemic going on. So, you take a shower, change your clothes, and wipe down all the groceries with Clorox wipes. But then you see your phone. Chances are, you probably touched your phone or called your mom while you were at the store. Your phone has just as many germs on it as anything else you brought home with you—maybe more! You can’t just wash it with soap and water; you don’t want to ruin it. So, to answer your burning questions, we invited a guest today to tell us all the tips and tricks on disinfecting and cleaning your phone during the pandemic and after! Here to tell us all about it is Burton Kelso, chief tech expert at Integral Technologies.
Inventing a Sport (0:30:57)
There are a lot of sports out there. They can be celebrated worldwide like soccer and baseball or just played at recess like Lava Tag. No matter how big or little they are they all started out as just some game that some kid (or some adult whose inner kid is still thriving) came up with and taught to their friends. So, how does someone take their new idea and grow it into a popular sport? To figure this out we’re talking to Chris Meade. Back in 2017 Chris, his brother Greg, and their friend Mike got together to invent CROSSNET: a combination of four square and volleyball that is sweeping the nation.
Disciplining Kids (0:50:37)
Discipline is one of the most difficult things about parenting. It isn’t fun. You love your kids—you don’t want to feel like the bad guy in your own home! But whether we like it or not, every once in a while, the law needs to be laid down. So how can we discipline in such a way that keeps order and the peace? Here to share her advice with us, is child psychologist Magdalena Battles.
Helping Cancer Patients (1:09:50)
Here at The Lisa Show, we’re always on the lookout for new service opportunities. This week we wanted to highlight a unique opportunity to serve cancer patients. The Road to Recovery provides cancer patients with free transportation to and from their treatments. That free transportation comes from volunteers who donate their time, vehicles, and driving to transport these patients to their appointments. Bill Junge and Ana Boote are part of this organization and are joining us today to discuss this incredible service opportunity.
Teaching Kids to Meditate (1:23:22)
As parents, we want only the best for our kids. We try to feed them food they like, yet is still good for their bodies. We sign them up to play soccer, we arrange playdates with nice friends, and we help them with homework. Of all the things you do for your kids, have you ever thought to help them slow down, reflect and meditate? Today, we have Mel-Lisa Dormoy, a guided imagery expert with a focus on kids’ meditation, here to share with us the benefits of meditation for your kids, and how to incorporate it in their routine.
