LEADERSHIP-These conversation starter guides enable you and your kids to discuss and build relevant leadership and life skills. This is the third Home Chat discussion starter resource provided by Growing Leaders. #3-Trade-Offs & Wise Choices. Have you ever come to a fork in a road? Once you decide which path to take you have to live with your decision. Every decision is a trade-off. Doing one thing means you can’t do another. It’s an important reminder for life: you can do anything, but you can’t do everything. In deciding what you’ll do, you also choose what not to do. That’s why taking time to make a wise choice is so important.
STEM-Use this website to search for STEM projects. We feature this website on our BASE Kids Lab under our STEM tab and it is being featured and shared by professionals and parents.
