THE BOOK
52 Small Changes for the Family
Small changes can make a big impact on creating a healthy, happy family.
In 52 Small Changes for the Family, bestselling author Brett Blumenthal teams up with family health practitioner Danielle Shea Tan (that's me!) to reveal how to build a foundation of health and happiness in the family. The idea is simple: Make one small change a week for 52 weeks and at the end of the year, you and your children will enjoy a happier, healthier lifestyle.
52 Small Changes for the Family will teach you and your family how to:
- Minimize clutter while organizing your space
- Foster a positive relationship with food
- Prioritize time in nature and take care of the environment
- Have meaningful conversations
- Use technology socially and safely
- Teach and practice financial responsibility
- Volunteer and give back to the community
Promote curiosity and encourage a love of learning
Build resilience, confidence, and cultivate emotional intelligence
Path to Change: Each change comes with an explanation as to why the change is important, as well as a “Path to Change,” which provides tips and recommendations to help you successfully implement the change.
Backed by research from leading experts and full of helpful charts and worksheets, 52 Small Changes for the Family provides a road map to a better life for the whole family.
Readers who love self-improvement books, such as Gretchen Rubin’s Happier at Home and The Happiness Project will love this book for its practical and actionable advice.
Some of our favorite reviews from real people who purchased our book!
"Having two teenagers has made us more wrinkly and gray but also increasingly proud and more appreciative every day. With all the electronics around us and especially in the hands of the kids, we were looking for a way to connect more as a family. I had already bought one of the prior 52 Small Change books to improve my overall health and the family was getting interested. This book has so many simple ideas to create conversation and better our family interactions. We already had practically perfect children (well most of the time and practically is a loose term), but this book has brought out the best in all of us! Thank you!"

"I'm a busy mom. I have 5 kids and run a business. I loved this book because there are really good ideas in it - but most importantly, they are easy, clear and actionable to put into place. I've recommend this to all the moms I know - if you're only going to read one book this year for your family, this should be it."

"Really great book. Some fabulous ideas that I can implement. Not just another “self help book” - London Mom
