Easter & Kick Off of Spring (FM)

Easter can be a fun holiday as it kicks off the beginning of spring. There are Easter egg coloring, hunts for Easter eggs, brightly colored baskets, straw hats for church, and yummy chocolate bunnies.

I wanted to create a fun radio show filled with family fun activities to be shared with everyone; and that was done beautifully by Debra Immergut, Senior Editor of Family Fun Magazine. She opened the show by providing crafts, parties and activity suggestions for Easter and spring time. You can tap into some great ideas provided by Debra on the show, and also through their website www.FamilyFun.com on a monthly basis.

Then, later on in the show, I welcomed Debra Pascali-Bonaro, President of Mother Love, Inc. -- one of the oldest doula training and consulting agencies in North America, to talk about the role of a doula in assisting moms while giving birth. Since Easter is a time of rebirth, I wanted to focus on helping moms with the "birthing process." Debra goes in depth discussing the benefits of having a doula involved in a mom's delivery, and what the difference is between a doula, midwife, and a regular doctor. Lean about the importance of working with a doula......and Happy Spring!
