Today, after the basketball practice, the kids asked for tenting practice. They felt, it was a good idea to close the sport program. So we spent like 15 mins in the garden and they used the sleeping bag as well.

Then we packed everything.

This small extra was very relaxing for the kids.

They felt more connected, more relaxed and ready to refocus. 

My younger even started to make Mathematics practice by himself. 

Both of my kids like to study, and at home, they can also study interesting things.

On the weekend, we practice how to make small art with clay, another day how to make dough and then cakes.

These interesting activates give more confidence to the kids, they are more relaxed, they feel more connected to each other and also to the other kids. 

Other kids also find tenting interesting and cool idea.

-----------

In the course, the instructor recommends to teach kids resilience and self-efficacy.

Specially in the 21st century, when the daily habits are so different for everybody.

Self- journaling is also good.

We do blogging for my kids as well. Both of them have their own blog, and we always talk about, what they like and what they wish to share. 

------

There are periods, when people go to the gym to loose weight.... It is ok, these periods are for earning more money as a trainer.

On the other hand, if the client cannot study new and good habits, than it will be not enough effective for them.

It is good to support the client to built new habits.

Some clients need more meditation or mindfulness. 

Helping the client in resilience is very important. 

I keep up the good mood for my kids, I like to organize interesting tours for them, also try out different sports.

Today it was basketball, but maybe tomorrow it is badminton. 

Some days it is bicycle, and again other days it is jogging.

Then I asked Chat GTP to make it nicer:

I like the personal examples in your post—they connect the course concepts to real life. I polished the grammar, improved the flow, and made it read more like a blog article while keeping your voice and experiences.

Today, after basketball practice, the kids asked if we could do some tenting practice. They thought it would be a fun way to finish the sports program, so we spent about 15 minutes in the garden. They even used their sleeping bags to make the experience feel more realistic.

Afterward, we packed everything away together.

This small extra activity turned out to be very relaxing for the kids. They felt more connected, more relaxed, and ready to refocus on other activities. My younger child even started practicing mathematics on his own afterward.

Both of my kids enjoy learning, and at home they have the opportunity to explore many interesting subjects. On some weekends we make small clay art projects. On other days, we learn how to make dough and bake cakes together.

These activities help build confidence. The kids become more relaxed, feel more connected to each other, and enjoy spending time with other children. Interestingly, many of the other kids also find tenting exciting and think it is a cool idea.

In the course, the instructor emphasizes the importance of teaching resilience and self-efficacy, especially in the 21st century, when people's daily habits and routines can vary greatly.

Self-journaling is also recommended as a valuable habit. In our family, we practice blogging instead. Both of my children have their own blogs, and we regularly discuss what they enjoy, what they have learned, and what they would like to share with others.

The course also discusses habit building from a fitness coaching perspective.

Many people join a gym because they want to lose weight. That is perfectly fine, and these periods often create opportunities for trainers to gain new clients. However, if clients do not learn healthier habits and lifestyle changes, the results may not last.

For this reason, supporting clients in building sustainable habits is extremely important. Some clients may benefit from meditation or mindfulness practices, while others may need help developing routines that fit their daily lives.

Helping clients develop resilience is equally important. Resilience allows them to continue moving forward even when motivation decreases or challenges arise.

When I think about my own children, I try to support resilience by maintaining a positive atmosphere and organizing interesting activities. We enjoy exploring different sports and outdoor experiences together.

Today it was basketball. Tomorrow it might be badminton. Some days we ride bicycles, and on other days we go jogging.

The specific activity is not always the most important thing. What matters is creating positive experiences, building healthy habits, and encouraging a lifelong love of learning and movement.

One small correction: in English, "tenting" is understandable, but many readers would more naturally say "camping practice", "backyard camping", or "setting up a tent". If you want the post to sound more native, I would rename the title to "Backyard Camping Practice" or "A Short Backyard Camping Adventure."
