MAXIMize Your Family Time and MAXIMize Your Family Time Junior (for home)

MAXIMize Your Family Time (for use with adolescents) and MAXIMize Your Family Time Junior (for use with children in third to sixth grades) are subscription character education tools designed for children and their families. MAXIMize Your Family Time and MAXIMize Your Family Time Junior are designed as extensions of the school-based program, but can function independently if your child's school has not yet adopted the MAXIMize the Moment programs.

MAXIMize messages help you to use your family discussion time to promote good character by giving you an opportunity to discuss your beliefs about character with your child. Because MAXIMize messages incorporate time-honored maxims, current events, and issues that teens face, your child will remember the message of good character being addressed. MAXIMize messages will help you and your family to begin or continue having meaningful dialogues about issues relating to character.

Just $25 for a 36 Week Subscription!
