Minimalist Parenting Dives Deep into Living With Less as a Family
Michael Hemsworth — February 12, 2013 — Lifestyle
It might seem impossible to live frugally when there are little ones running around, but Minimalist Parenting: Enjoy Modern Family Life More by Doing Less by Christine Koh and Asha Dornfest helps to debunk preconceived notions of living in the 21st century. New borns bring with them lots of stuff and it only continues to pile up as they grow up, which is why deciding to live a more minimalistic existence is what many families are leaning towards in the modern age of waste.
Koh and Dornfest dive deep into their findings about how to live a perfectly satisfying life without spending excessively on toys, activities and vacations. Moreover, the book gives advice on how to change priorities to more worthwhile things like family and friends instead of materialistic pastimes.
The book will be released in March 2013 in both physical and digital forms.
