The trails will take you to secluded spots with fantastic views of both the city and the mountains, so make sure to bring your camera!

We live in a wonderful time where technology can help you stay fit and healthy. Your smart phone has an endless number of apps that can help keep you on track and motivated to reach all your fitness goals. All you have to do is download them and start. Here are three must-have apps for those people looking to stay fit this holiday season.
Stepz: most doctors recommend a daily step count of 10,000. If you have a newer smart phone, it can probably track your steps and calories burned with an app like Stepz. This is a wonderful way to stay motivated and compete with yourself every single day.
Strava run app: Strava is more of a community than a run app. You can find groups, connect with people, find runs and enter monthly competitions.
My Fitness Pal: the biggest key to staying fit during the holidays is watching what you eat and keeping away from high calorie dishes. My Fitness Pal is the perfect app for knowing what you are eating and how many calories it contains.

Having trouble getting your kids to eat more vegetables? Well, then welcome to parenthood. Getting your kids to eat a healthy meal is one of the most important, but also difficult, parts of being a good parent. Here are three tips for getting your kids to eat more vegetables in you Encino apartments.Set the right example: parents might not want to hear this first tip, but if you do not eat vegetables or constantly complain about them, how do you expect your children to eat them?
Use other flavors: throwing a little butter, bacon or cheese on a vegetable might be cheating a little, but hey, at least your children are eating veggies. Start off slow and then after a while they will not need the extra flavoring.
Do not make them finish: do not make eating vegetables a negative experience for your children. Start small and have your children take a bit or two, but don’t force them to finish every veggie on their plate.
