Rocket Mom! 7 Strategies To Blast You Into Brilliance
Amazon Price: $19.95 (as of 11/09/2009)
Combining the analytical skills of a businesswoman with the wit and comforting sensibilities of a mom with nearly twenty years on the front line, Rocket Mom is the quintessential blueprint for motherhood, where "brainy" meets "zany."
Discover how to:
- Identify and nurture your child's own genius--and trust her, she'll prove that it's there--by studying the traits of giants such as Einstein, daVinci, and Mozart
- Develop your child's brain by playing a musical instrument--even if you don't know the difference between an arpeggio and a spaghettio
- Transform your home with beauty so that it serves as your children's "third teacher"--and learn why this is so vital to boosting your creativity quotient
- Contribute to an ethical renaissance in your own little corner of the earth--as well as all over the globe
- Manage the schedules of simultaneous stages of childhood--while watching dust accumulate and toys reproduce--and get a grip on your unique occupational hazards
- Maintain and health and fitness regimen of your own--while maintaining kids who are too young to take care of themselves

First Graduating Class of "RocketMoms"
Introducing the very first graduating class of "RocketMoms". RocketMoms is a niche group of Squidoo lensmasters working together to make lenses and lots more. They are moms, grandmas, step-mothers, moms of multiples and every type of mom you can imagine.Each RocketMom eagerly accepted the challenge to create 6 lenses over a 6 week period. Out of over 60 RocketMoms in our very first session, 39 RocketMoms completed that challenge (and then some). The lenses they created are smart, creative, unique, caring and contain a wealth of knowledge on fascinating topics.
So without further ado, Congratulations! RocketMoms Class of June 3rd, 2009!
hlkljgk: RocketMoms Session 1 Graduate
Hey, that's me! :)
Heather was one of the very first people to participate in the maiden voyage of our Rocketmoms academy.
Rocketmoms is a gathering of the smartest women on the web, working together to make Squidoo lenses (and a whole lot more).
As part of the 6-week program, a Rocketmom takes on the challenge of making 6 lenses: an About Me lens, a Niche Lens, a Recipe lens, a Travel lens, a Holiday lens and a Lensography. They also had two extra-credit lenses, a Top 10 lens and a Charity lens.
Here are some of Heather's amazing lenses that she made as part of the RocketMoms Program. The completion of which, and her participation in the Rocketmoms program, earn her this "official" online Rocketmoms graduation certificate.
Please join us in browsing Heather's lenses, and don't hesitate to sign this lens with your congratulations and wishes for Heather's ongoing success:
