kids get their first taste of independence at summer camp, where there are no
parents or teachers constantly looking over their shoulders. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>However, becoming home sick and acting
out are common when children are first separated from their families and
homes. By doing a few simple things, you can be well on your way
to preventing homesickness and bad behavior at summer camp.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Summer Camp</span><span style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Parents telling their kids about good
behavior and homesickness can be helpful, but discussing these issues with
peers can give your child a perspective he can more easily relate to.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span> See if your child has any
friends who have already been to summer camp, or even just been away from their
families for long periods. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>Then,
you can talk to their friends’ parents and see if they can host sleep over
party where your child can get used to being away from home. Your kid can
listen to their friends talk about their personal experiences with managing
their behavior when their parents are far away, and how to deal with
homesickness. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>To give the
kids some privacy and make the sleepover more similar to summer camp, your kids
may want to sleep out in their back yard. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>After listening to their friends’
stories about summer camp, your child may become more excited and less
apprehensive about leaving.<u1:p></u1:p><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">When kids are extremely active, they tend
not to be homesick. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>However,
at nights during summer camp they can begin to reflect and feel very
lonely. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>For the month
before your child goes to summer camp, wear the same cologne or perfume every
day so that your child will begin to associate it with you. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>Then, right before they leave for
camp, spray a dab of it on their pillow. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>You don’t want to spray the case
because of allergies and because it will get washed. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>By putting it directly on the pillow
the smell will stay for a long time without directly contacting their face.<u1:p></u1:p><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Because their pillow will smell the way
they remember their mother or father, it can be a source of comfort when they
begin feeling lonely at night. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>This
can help ensure that they get a good night’s sleep and feel close to their
loved ones. <u1:p></u1:p><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">While smells can help in preventing
homesickness and bad behavior at summer camp, sometimes a more tangible
reminder of home is nice too. </span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">There
are a variety of bath robes that feature kids’ favorite cartoon, movie, and
comic book characters. </span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Just
find one your child enjoys that comes in both kid and adult sizes. </span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">The month leading up to summer camp,
you can both wear them around the house. </span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Then, the night before they leave for
camp, you can both wear your matching robes while you spend your time bonding
over board games, favorite movies, or just talking. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Once your child is at summer camp,
whenever they start feeling lonely or are considering acting out, they can put
on their favorite<span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: blue;"> </span><a href="http://www.crazyforbargains.com/kidrobe.html" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: #cc0000;">kids robe</span></b></a> and think about how you may be wearing the same outfit back home. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>By coupling this with their scented

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">The idea of going to summer camp and
spending weeks away from home, friends and family can be daunting to even the
bravest kids. However, the knowledge they gained during their sleepover,
and the pillow and robes to remind them of their parents can help in preventing
homesickness and bad behavior at summer camp.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span> This
way your kid may have an awesome time, and you can relax knowing they are
enjoying themselves.<u1:p></u1:p><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">1. Air your

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">1. Talk it out
with your spouse. Avoid bottling things up.
Confide your anxieties to someone trusted like your mate or friend. Talking your problem out relieves the strain
and helps to see your stress in a cleaner light. Often, you can see what to do about it.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">2. Escape for a
while. When things go wrong, don’t just stand there and suffer. This is not the
way to solve a problem. Take a walk, hold a book and read, play a game. Take long enough to reduce family stress, recharge and recover your balance and
breath. You can deal properly with
difficulties when you get your composure back.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">3. Work off anger.
Although anger gives the temporary relief, this will make you feel guilty and
sorry after a while. Rather than lashing out, pitch into some physical
activities such as gardening, cleaning, listening to music, etc. Working off
anger from you system and cooling off for a couple of days will result to a
much better condition to face your problems.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">4. Give in
occasionally. If you find yourself getting into frequent fighting with the
feelings of being obstinate and defiant, remember that this is how frustrated
children behave. Do calmly and stand
your ground on what you think is right.
If you are dead right, it is easier to give in once in a while for your
system. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">5. Take one
thing at a time. An ordinary load sometimes seems unbearable. Take note that
this is just temporary then you can work your way out from it. Reduce
family stress by tackling some of your tasks one at a time, setting aside others. Once you dispose of these, you will see the remaining
is not a terrifying mess.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">6. Do something
for others. Rather than worrying about yourself every time, try doing good for
others. You will see that this will take
the burden out and offer you great feelings of having done well for other
people.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">7. Avoid the “superman”
burst. Some people expect too much from themselves and are always stressed by thinking
they are not achieving what they should get. No one can perfect all
things. Decide which things you do well
while putting your best effort for these. They are apt to be the things you
want to do. Therefore, these can give
you greatest satisfaction and reduce
your family stress.<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">8. Go easy with
your criticism. Expecting too much from
your children will leave you frustrated and angry. Everyone has his own imperfections,

points and help your children develop these for their own good.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">9. Give your
children a break. When children are under stress, they feel they have to get
there first—to edge out their parents even for things that are trivial. Competition between parents and children is
contagious, but so is cooperation.
Cooperate with your kids also once in a while. When you give your children a break, you make
things simple for yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

yourself available. Many parents feel
that they are left behind, rejected, and neglected. Sometimes they imagine other family members
feel this way about them. Instead of shrinking away and withdrawing, make some
of the overtures. Don’t always wait to
be asked.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Anger
between the children and the parents is more prevalent and stronger among rich <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">people. The core issue is that unhealthy relationships
are shaped in rich families. One of the
reasons is unresolved emotional issues. The
emotional element is not dealt with properly.
And the richer the family becomes, the more intense the problems will be. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">There are
causes why kids keep grudges against their own parents. Here are the three elements why rich children
hate their parents. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">1. Many
rich families don’t say ‘NO.’ Rich families should understand the importance of
saying “NO” to children. Many rich
parents do not say it actually and their kids grow up knowing they can have in
their hands anything they want. They
think they get everything because they have the money and resources. When they are outside the house and be with
other people, the world will tell them ‘no.’ In case like this, they become
upset and angry. Through this they have
hard feelings about their parents. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">2. Hard Working Parents. Parents are highly dedicated to their career
and through it they have lack of time and inability to be with their kids. Rich people are absent most of the time
making their children feel they are abandoned.
The moment parents understand this and make everything by giving
material things, parents are actually adding insult to injury. Kids simply become angrier. Money is the bad currency to pay back wasted
time. Parents should make up lost time with time. </span><span style="line-height: 115%;">Children hate their parents if the expression of
love, which is time, is missing. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">3. Finally, this is in connection with the rude world we have. The society has the huge influence on the
rich children. The possibility that
culture can make fun of kids is normally happening. In order to give protection to their kids,
parents tell them to cover or hide their possessions and riches. This is normal to happen for those who are
very young. Due to this issue, children
put the blame on their parents. In most
cases, unsettled anger can lead to the fruitless transfer of riches. Can this be possible? Probably, yes!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Compared
to non-rich families, there are less children who dislike their parents. But there are still many grounds <b><a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-confidential-cafe/220769-why-do-american-kids-hate-their-parents-so-much.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">why children hate their parents</span></a> </b>and
these can be common among families—whether rich or not. </span><span style="line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">If parents can say easily that the building was built by

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Making some stories about the origin of the child is not
harmful, but there is an additional problem of weaving up the story. Later on the child needs to unlearn the wrong
answer if he gets older to understand the truth. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">For <b><a href="http://www.plannedparenthood.org/parents/talking-kids-about-sex-sexuality-37962.htm" target="_blank">sex and children,</a> </b>there is no strict formula as to
what age to give about the sensitive subject matter. It depends on the preparedness on the
individual child. If he begins asking question, that is your cue to start explaining
before he asks. The subject matter about it is still beyond his understanding.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The proper rule is to give the child what he is ready
for. Parents who avoid the question, “Where
did I come from?” are, in effect, blocking the child’s potential to learn the
truth at early age. This can make him to wonder why his parents don’t want him
to understand these things. He may have
the notion that sex is probably something shameful and bad. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Children learn about this thing from the actions and
attitudes of their parents, not only through words. The tone of the message is far more important
than its wordings or the approach they use. </span></span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">A positive attitude on the part of the parents is important
to children’s appreciation about sex and their body.</span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> </span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">So the next time your child asks, “Where did
I come from?” make sure to know precisely what to answer.</span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> </span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;"> </span></div>

stressful circumstances, parents must take care to let the child understand the
bad effects of being stubborn.</span><span style="line-height: 115%;">
</span><span style="line-height: 115%;">Displaying anger to an angry child is very harmful because the child
will understand that anger is the right way of expressing dislikes and
anxiety.</span><span style="line-height: 115%;"> </span><span style="line-height: 115%;">There are some ways to calm

<span style="font-family: inherit;">It will only worsen the situation. Don’t scold him either. Children do not understand the ways of
acceptable behaviors and the proper way of overcoming conflicts. Dedication and patience is the key to open
ways in their minds. When they turn
stubborn, observe them and know the factor that makes them feel
uncomfortable. You can remove the child
from the place to help him calm down.
Scolding will only make them feel unloved or will crush their spirits.
Usually, stubbornness happens as an uncontrollable behavior among kids. Learning to divert attention or helping them
learn ways of avoiding stressful moments will help them a lot. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">If parents tend to easily get angry on minor problems and
often have arguments, then children are likely to do the same and become
stubborn. Parents serve as the child’s
first teachers. Everything the parents
do is learned by children. When they see
them reacting with anger instantly, they will have the perception that
expressing anger is the right way to face stress. Parents cannot behave angrily and then expect
a stubborn child to act in good manner. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Please listen to the child rather than attempting to do
all your tricks. Most kids have the inborn stubbornness as their trait. Some
express it more often while others can just keep it. Getting more friendly to the kids while they
are tensed or angry will alleviate the condition. Talking to them will help
them forget their stress. Kids feel they
are unpleasant when parents ignore them. Most of the time, stubbornness is the
way of encouraging parent’s attention.
If they feel they have enough importance and attention, a stubborn child
can gradually improve.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">Understanding a stubborn child in every way helps to
identify and fix the problem. In most
cases, the stubbornness can be improved with additional techniques and
care. In some cases, children show misbehavior
as an abnormal factor. They must be
brought for behavioral conditioning or counseling by a professional.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 6.35pt; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 6.35pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 115%;">Being stubborn is natural and parents must have special skills to
properly deal with their kids’ obstinacy. Dealing with them without calming
them down is hard to do. Stubbornness is
not an abnormal behavior, but a learned mistake. Kids also experience stress and
tensions. They don’t know the right way
to escape from anxiety or release it in the right way. If emotions are not nurtured appropriately,
their stubbornness may become a chronic behavior. Therefore, identifying this character trait
is necessary to help a <b><a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?Six-Simple-Steps-To-Manage-Your-Stubborn-Child&id=5304624" target="_blank">stubborn child </a></b>overcome his bad behavior.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><a href="http://www.cmha.ca/mental_health/children-and-their-fears/#.UIsLFm8xp4I" target="_blank">Children’s fear</a></b> is an abnormal part of growing up. Children share many of the same fears. Some of these fears change and then disappear
with growth. Ideally, children retain
the healthy fears that protect them from danger, but not irrational and
unproductive fears.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Parents are the key influence on how children’s fear should
be handled. They can intensify or
alleviate children’s fear through their reactions. Fearful parents may raise children so fearful
that they feel anxious and powerless.
Those children learn to distrust people and things in their environment,
viewing the world as a dangerous place.
Fears that are too intense and too prolonged may harm their developing
personality.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Parents who grew up with many fears and continue to be
troubled by them may want to seek professional help in this area of parenting. Through learning how to help the young to
overcome children’s fear, the parent will learn to cope more effectively
themselves. Children who learn how to
face and conquer their fears feel powerful, rather than threatened and
helpless.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Overly protective parents seem preoccupied with fears
related to their children’s safety, imaging many dangerous possibilities. Consequently, they continue to protect their
children long after the children should have learned to protect
themselves. Parents remain in full
charge where children’s fear is not well handled. An example of such protective tendencies
might be refusal to allow the child participate in sports or any other
potentially dangerous activities. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Such parents continually voice warnings and monitor all of
their children’s activities, supposedly for safety reasons. These children will
probably lack the confidence essential for success in the world, depending
completely on their parents, who always watch out for them. Eventually, some of these children might
demand the chance to grow. They might
even secretly seek out forbidden activities to assert their independence and
thus learn to rely on their own judgment.
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
How fortunate are the children who feel safe and protected
while they are small but learn to take care of themselves as they grow. Their parents believe that their children can
and will use judgement and know how to protect themselves or get help when
necessary. This belief is transmitted to
the children, often simply by the parents’ attitude. Kids will grow up with an inner assurance
that they will succeed in the world as <b><a href="http://www.cyh.com/HealthTopics/HealthTopicDetails.aspx?p=114&np=141&id=1612" target="_blank">children’s fear</a></b> is overcome.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">It's difficult to accept child’s
picky eating habits. Children couldn’t eat too much food the way adults
do. Kids aged 2 to 4 experience the
low-appetite stage for eating. Their bellies are too small to fill in more food
because their stomachs are as small as their fist. If they have eaten a little, that’s
sufficient for them. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"></span></div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">This is the reason why they have
picky eating habits. Most probably they
only like familiar foods and reject strange ones. In this case, it’s important that right
nutrition is prioritized since children can only eat less. But how can parents
introduce new foods in a way kids won’t reject them? How will they conquer child’s picky eating
habits? Here are a number of helpful tips:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Don’t force your kids to eat the
food they dislike. There are reasons why
they hate it: because of appearance, taste, or smell. Never give up if the child refuses to eat it.
Be patient enough to offer it again next time.
Studies have shown that it takes about 10 times or more for kids to try
new foods before they can appreciate them.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">1. Understand how hard it is for the
kids and don’t scold them. Even adults
have picky eating habits and intolerance on certain foods. It’s not that kids don’t want to try them; it
could be that that new food gives them negative reaction which is highly
intolerable. They might have the feeling of wanting to vomit if they continue
eating.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">2. Show them, through words and
actions, how good the food is.
Demonstrate the way it should be eaten and give constructive feedbacks
about its nutrition. A simple
explanation will stamp out any underlying doubts and will reduce the child’s
picky eating habits.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">3. Ask them to join you while cooking.
Kids love to experiment and explore; it’s enjoyable. With your close supervision, they may help
you in their own little ways. Motivate
them to eat what both of you have prepared.
Surely, they’ll love to consume what they’ve cooked. Immediately affirm and praise their
appreciative acts for the food.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">4. Don’t say anything distasteful or
negative. They won’t like it if you say
that it tastes bitter, will they? Say nice things about the food even if it’s
not so as to convince the kid. It’s easy
to do it because a kid will take your words literally. If you say, “it’s appetizing,” then that’s
the way it’s absorbed—literally appetizing.
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Above all, keep in mind that child’s
picky eating habits are parts of growing up. As your child evolves and
discovers new things so will his choices of food!</span></div>

</div>
<span style="color: black; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 115%;">Couples who employ<a href="http://www.ehow.com/info_7981335_tips-parenting-skills-teenage-mothers.html" target="_blank">constructive parenting skills</a> make use of methodical approaches in modeling
behaviors for their offspring. Through
such skills, self-esteem and self-worth are built up among children at their
early years of development. Constructive
parenting should be initially established by the parents themselves. By considering their own behavioral attitudes
accordingly, they can anticipate children to follow them and act in like
manner. These skills require constancy,
expertise, and readiness to gain knowledge—first for the parents and then the
children. As a result, this know-how
parenting ends in higher competence.</span>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;">There are three
confirmed, easy-to-use constructive parenting skills these days which comprise
of the following:</span><b><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;"></span></b></span></div>
<h2 style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;">Role modeling</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 115%;"> – parents must mirror the very
character and manners they want to look ahead to their sons and daughters. Before they can guide them, parents must
educate and direct themselves first about what are acceptable deeds. As kids gain knowledge by listening and
watching what adults do, parents need to be more cautious of their demonstrated
actions, especially during unguarded moments.
The kind of personality your kids will become is reliant on how they are
trained and modeled during their formative years. Display virtues of
politeness, gentleness, benevolence, patience and you will create a well
brought-up child. On the contrary, model
the behaviors of anger, fear, resentment, hatred and you will shape a ghastly
child.</span></span></h2>
<h2 style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;">Training and disciplining</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 115%;"> – in practicing
constructive parenting skills, couples may use a variety of ways to impose
discipline. One of the best forms of
child discipline is by abiding acceptable behaviors through trainings and not
just by giving punishments. A genuine
discipline is neither punishing nor overly correcting. Proven effective discipline comes from daily
working reasonable activities displayed by parents and copied by the kids. It is shown most in practices and spoken
least in annoying reprimands. </span></span></h2>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;">Effective
Communication</span></b><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 115%;"> – based on the
child’s age and ability, parents should employ correct procedures when
communicating with them. The way
children take up words depends on how effective the message is. Constructive parenting skills banish vague
and puzzling messages by utilizing comprehensible and reliable information in
an easy-to-understand mode. Yelling is a
must-avoid attitude since children don’t remember any good thing from it. Your anger is the one they keep in mind, not
what you want to teach. Finger pointing,
displaying akimbo, unpleasant facial expressions—these are non-verbal actions
against any relationship. Showing
gentleness and speaking respectful words, will help yield rewarding results.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">

Read well with your kids. </span></b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">There’s
no more effective way to get your children to read than this. And preschool children aren’t the only ones
who benefit—school-age children can be helped as well. Set a regular time, but don’t make it too
long. Fifteen to twenty minutes is long
enough, especially when starting to read.
Take time to explain new words or to admire a picture<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">.</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">

</span></span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">2. Have a wider range of reading materials. </span></b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Make
sure your kids have both a number and variety of things to read—books,
magazines, newspapers, etc. Give them to
your kids for birthday presents. Keep a
stack in the bathroom, as well as next to the couch, in the car, or wherever
your kids spend time. And if possible,
make sure your kids have a bookshelf and a reading lamp in their room. A subscription to a favorite magazine is also
a good idea.</span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-add-space: auto;">

good model.</b> If children see their parents read they learn that reading is
important. And this goes for both parents, by the way. Since boys often have trouble learning to
read, it’s all the more important for them to see their father or some other
significant male reading—and reading to them. </span></div>

Television and computer can diminish a child’s creativity and stifle his
imagination. So set some limits. No, you don’t have to get rid of your TV and
computer completely. List the shows and games your kids want to watch and play. Make sure the TV and computer are turned off
the rest of time. </span></div>

establish a goal—whether of the number of books he wants to read or the amount
of time he wishes to spend in reading. A
child who reads with confidence, for instance, may decide to read one book a
week for the next three months; a child who reads slowly may set a goal of
reading for 20 minutes a day, four days a week.
At the same time as you set goals, come up with rewards for meeting
them. The best reward any parent can
give a child, of course, is attention.
Talk about the book he is reading. Ask also some questions.</span></div>

children is hard, but it’s worth the effort.
Reading opens doors to the wonders of the world; you can go anywhere,
learn anything, and meet anyone through books.
When you instill in your kids love of reading, you give them wings on
which to soar in search for their dreams. <a href="http://childrensbooks.about.com/od/forparents/a/resolutions.htm" target="_blank"><b>How to raise kids who love to read</b></a> is not really hard to do.</span></div>

seems like the whole world is crashing in around him. Your child may seem very
distant and not sure of you as parents. This is mainly the reason why parents
don’t want to tell their child the truth.
They want to avoid the unhealthy consequences—affecting feeling of
distance and restlessness on the part of the kid. </span></div>

specific information about adoption. Children have many wandering questions but
many will not ask about it if they sense parents are uncomfortable about it.
These steps will help you to show an open attitude, start conversations, answer
difficult questions and generally provide your children with the information
they need. What are the keys to explaining adoption to your child?</span>

<br />
Spend time communicating daily with your child. If your child knows that you
enjoy listening and talking about everything under the sun, he won't think
twice about raising the topic of adoption.
Open and consistent communication is a wonderful habit to build in your
relationship. It helps you discuss about many crucial topics that your kid needs
to know about. Explaining adoption to your child may include real stories as a
basis for an extensive and wider range of conversation. These are adaptable to
a child's age beginning from first grade in school. Make this a strong way to
enlarge the habit of a regular communication by using every kind of interesting
topic.</span></div>

<br />
It is really essential to research as much as you can about how children might
understand and perceive adoption and, in special cases, their own story of
adoption. Experts have been studying this for so long to have more than enough
information. Read also books and articles on how can children easily not misinterpret
even your best attempts to tackle with them about this sensitive facet of their
lives.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

</span></b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"><br />
Explaining adoption to your child can be done by giving stories. Experts do
propose to start at the early life your child's story, that means inside the
womb. Your child must know that he came normally into this world just like any
other child, even if your details are lacking. Tell him how the family happily
welcomed him. This can be very inspiring and entertaining and will weave this topic
in a natural approach. Repeating stories
over and again helps your child digest important information about his own
life.</span></div>

<br />
</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">You can’t just get this over with
just one sitting. In a natural way and on a regular basis, what your kid needs
is to communicate with you further.<span style="color: #c00000;"> </span>For sure
your child will ask related questions a hundred times and still wants to expect
a good answer.<span style="color: #c00000;"> </span>And what’s the motive behind
those interrogations? Explaining adoption to your child has a grip on all
complicated concepts that crash his life in massive ways.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">It is hard for children to
understand the meaning of earlier period events that have severely affected
their lives. Children easily presume they made something bad to decide their
biological parents to give them up to adoption. By using a variety of ways,
it's so important to deal with this issue over and again. Equipping them with a
broad range of potential reasons will help them build digestion and understand
the truth. <a href="http://www.parentsconnect.com/parenting-your-kids/child-adoption/explaing_adoption_child.html" target="_blank"><b>Explaining adoption to your child</b></a> is not that hard at all.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Every
day, all over the globe, millions of people make use of the Internet. Most of
them log on to apply for jobs, catch up the world news, conduct business, check the weather, study about different
nations, obtain travel information, or simply communicate with family and
friends in various places of the world. But sadly some—single adults and
married as well as a shocking number of children—will be going on-line for a
very different reason: “to look for pornography.”</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">

<div style="font-family: inherit;">

<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Computer
pornography, also known as “cyberporn,” is very popular that it has become a
multimillion-dollar business. And why people log on to Internet for
pornography? Online customers can view racy fare without having to sneak into a
shady bookstore or even visit the nearby video shop’s backroom. Customers can
peruse dirty fare in the privacy of the home—or office.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Unhappily,
many viewers of cyberporn are children and minors who are forbidden by law from
procuring pornographic materials or from renting pornographic videos. They can
gain ready access to these at home with a few mouse clicks. The choices are all
endless.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Many
young children frequently visit Internet websites with no knowledge of their
parents. In fact, more than 2 in 5 children have subscribed to online services
or to a web site even though nearly 85% of parents have rules against doing so.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">
</span><br />
<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">While
most children—and adults also—are cautious to cover the fact that they
experiment in pornography, not everybody knows the reason to do so. Some would
consider this practice as a safe form of recreation. Others concede that
pornography is bad for children but reason that what adults perform in private
is their personal business.</span></div>

are the struggles between the children and the parents. But how to really help these kids! As you can
notice, the frequency of bad behavior varies—some always, some severe, and
while others less. Using the steps below
will help in lessening the problem and in reducing the occurrence and harshness
of the child.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">

<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Relationship</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">
</span></span><br />
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">A relationship that is molded in love between
the child and the parent is a stable one. Always tell your kid you really love
him. Show it by listening to him. Spend time to play, teach, and train as often
as possible. Based on the words uttered
is the building of a parent-and-child relationship. The bonding is supported by laughter shared
together and games played together.
Forever, a great relationship is joined by skills and values you can
pass on the kid.</span></div>

<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">

<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Planning</span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">
</span></span><br />
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Good planning is the key to a successful
parenting. Be aware of your expectations
so you can plan only for the good behavior instead of the bad behavior. Most
problems with children occur during the period of adjustment and transition. Plan
to provide understanding to your child, his skills, and temperaments. Know the many challenges that surround him
every day. Employ direct guidance,
instruction, and use those daily opportunities to teach him new skills. All the time, the child needs to adjust with
these struggles in his growing years. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">
</span></span><br />
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Response </span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">
</span></span><br />
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Response and attentiveness are effective tools
to help improve the child’s behavioral problems. A thorough understanding on how to help
children will help your response to improve the bad behavior. Everything boils down to actions and right
consequences. When the child’s action elicits
positive support, the same will be repeated over time. And if his action
elicits penalty, it will be extinguished eventually.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">
</span></span><br />
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Children learn how to make links between their
actions and the consequences as long as the punishment or reinforcement is
reasonable and logical. However, parents
don’t need to impose consequences all the time. The most enlightening
consequences happen naturally. Parents
can create an effective connection when speaking to the child. Explain to him
what he did and why a certain consequence is given to him. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">
</span></span><br />
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">As loving parents, the reaction to the child’s
behavioral problems is a strong consequence, whether it’s a punishment or a
reward. The purpose is certainly to
shape well the child behavior. In terms
of a parent-child relationship, your approval or disapproval creates a reaction
to either punish or reward the child. Certainly, parents can always <a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?Parenting-Tips---Dealing-With-Behavior-Problems-Among-Children&id=4775016" target="_blank"><b>help kidswith their behavioral problems</b></a>.</span></div>

<h3 style="color: black; font-family: inherit; font-weight: normal;">
<span style="font-size: small;">It looks like nature is playing
an offensive trick to parents who have <a href="http://kidshealth.org/parent/nutrition_center/q_a/more_veggies.html" target="_blank"><b>kids that hate vegetables</b></a>. People know that vegetables are healthy
foods, but children seem to find them difficult to like and to eat. Why does it
happen? Why do kids hate to eat vegetables? What can parents do to avoid this? </span></h3>
<h3 style="color: black; font-family: inherit; font-weight: normal;">
<span style="font-size: small;"> </span></h3>
<h3 style="color: black; font-family: inherit; font-weight: normal;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><a name='more'></a></span>
</h3>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">People developed their
distinctive food taste preferences a long, long time ago. During the prehistoric times, they were at high
risk of starving. Foods that were very
sweet and high in fat and calories were seldom to search. Nevertheless, humans
did develop the drive to avoid the abundance of vegetables. Then they craved
for rare honey sweets, high-fat foods that would help them survive during
famines.<br />
<br />Today, little kids can also begin not to hate the taste
of vegetables; however, the distinct taste must be acquired by them first. </span><span style="font-size: small;"> Here are two
reasons why children hate and dislike the taste of vegetables, and what should parents do to overcome it. </span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Vegetables
contain low calories</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
Almost all vegetables have
low-calorie contents. Only 25 calories are found in one cup of cauliflower and
1,023 in M&M cup. All people, adults and
children, possess the natural drive to eat more fatty and sugary kinds of
foods. Kids have the stronger desire to consume more calories because they’re
growing up and they need more calories for their bodies. Research shows that fast growing children
love the sweet tasting foods more than the slow growing kids. No wonder why they prefer to eat overly sweet
foods that are not acceptable to adults. </div>
<span style="color: black; font-size: small;"></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: black;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">On the contrary, vegetables are
not. Kids hate to eat vegetables because they are low in calorie content. A
prehistoric child may not acquire sufficient calories to grow up and to survive
if he is full of vegetable foods. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">What to do? Add or mix fats to any kind of vegetables.
Olive oil, nut butter, butter, cheese are fats that can help. If you think you’re worrying about over
indulging in fats, bear in mind that kids re required to eat foods with higher
fat contents. Your child needs to have
not a slow-fat diet but a medium-fat diet.
Focus on the healthy fats such as olive oil and nuts. Moms can put balance to low-calorie foods
with high-calorie foods and still provide that medium-fat diet to their
children.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Vegetables
taste bitter</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">People have the natural instinct
to shun foods that taste bitter.
Scientists perceive that the bitter taste can detect a poison taste in
our foods. Most of them are the bitter
alkaloids, and that’s the reason why kids hate to eat vegetables.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;"> </span>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Children enjoy eating the sweet,
salty, and bland foods in their first attempt to eat them. Foods which are bitter tasting are acquired
taste and it takes time for children to get used to it. Remember the ever first time you have tasted beer or
coffee? May be you perceived they were
horribly bitter. But three to five times you drank them, you started liking the
taste. You learned through your brain
that beer or coffee does not contain poison despite its bitter taste.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: black;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: small;">What to do? Your child must acquire the vegetable taste.
He must eat vegetables more often. Offer
your child foods with vegetables at least three times each day. Within a year,
your child will learn a thousand lessons to acquire the vegetable taste. And the
poor child who rarely eats vegetables gets only one hundred lessons to
learn. Most likely, that child wouldn’t
learn to love to eat vegetables and continue to hate them. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: black;">

<span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://nutrition.about.com/od/nutritionforchildren/a/bitterstudy.htm" target="_blank"><b>Why do kids hate vegetables</b></a>? Most
likely they lack the consistent training of parents to model their children.
Offer a variety of vegetable foodstuff and don’t give up. Not too soon you
child begins to love their taste. Kids will not dislike vegetables for parents
who regularly show why and how to eat them!!!</span></div>

<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Kids’ tantrum is a
normal way of behaviour for them. They
normally get lesser as they grow up. As
children become older they gradually learn to control their attitudes and
emotions. They begin controlling their frustrations so they control their outbursts.
And there are also children who display more tantrums than other kids of their
age. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://ezinearticles.com/?Common-Causes-of-Toddler-Temper-Tantrums&id=5296014" target="_blank">What causes tantrum</a>?</span></span><span lang="EN-PH"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">1. Anger -- This emotion
is normally linked to tantrums. It means
your child is burdened with annoyance and that throwing tantrum serves as the
pressure valve for the child.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">2. Frustration -- It’s
done either by not being able to perform a particular task such as tying a shoe
lace, or by not being understood by adults due to lack of recognized
communication skills.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">3. Need for more
independence -- The kid may not like doing things for himself and get disturbed
when he is exercised by someone in authority.
Things such as tying the seat belt in the car will always trigger a tantrum.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">4. Seeking attention -- It
happens when the child is noticed too much when throwing his tantrum. It makes him learn that his tantrum will
catch your attention. Provide praise and
right attention for proper behaviour.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">5. Hungry, uncomfortable,
and tired -- More chances will your child experience tantrum when he is already
very upset.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;">Tips how to avoid
tantrums</span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">1. Recognize and
praise each good behavior as praise encourages the child to behave better instead
of criticizing his bad behaviour.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">2. Model a good
example for the child to follow. If you
are always upset and you tend to get angry right away, you’re modelling this bad
behaviour to the child.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">3. Give other options
so that the child finds control in his daily living. For instance, ask what
dress he wants to wear tomorrow, or ask what food he wants to eat. You may ask,
“Do you want an apple or an orange?”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">4. Twist the attention
of the child. It’s better to avert his attention to something different even
before his tantrum becomes full-blown. Bear in mind, young kids have short
attention span.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">5. Shun triggers –
avoid being in a situation that might lead to his tantrum. Apply the ten-minute warning approach by
saying: “it’s bed time in 10 minutes, so you have to finish it.” This way the kid understands that what he’s
doing is about to finish.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">6. Employ appropriate
toys and games that permit your child to win.
This avoids tantrums which are made of frustrations for failing to
complete the activity.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">

<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;">Dealing with your
child’s tantrum</span><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">1. Remaining calm is
the first most important thing to do.
Although you’re not a calm person, try to be. It does help a lot. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">2. Not minding the
behaviour works best when it is just starting.
Keep yourself off him and pretend you don’t notice. Avoid providing attention for this misbehavior.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">3. Redirect his
concentration. Try to show him something
attractive to look at. Most of the time
you can apply this to discourage the child’s tantrum.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">4. Hold or cuddle the
child while talking to him with a soft voice.
However, this only is effective in the beginning. The moment the tantrum becomes full blown
things become worse. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">5. Time out. If you feel like losing your patience, you
can transfer the child to safe place to leave him there for few minutes. This will give him some inner control,
too. Get rid of those stuff that might
be destroyed if he turns destructive.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">6. Never reason out
with a kid who is at the peak of his tantrum.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;">TOP TIP</span> – if the
tantrum is over, don’t hold grudges. Cuddle up the child and reconcile.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.0pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span lang="EN-PH"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Do it consistently
for the child to know that tantrums can’t help in receiving what he likes and
that your mind is unchanging about this. Hope the above tips on <b><a href="http://www.ehow.com/how_2051056_deal-toddler-tantrums.html" target="_blank">how to deal with tantrums</a> </b>can really help.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Do you notice your child having
struggles reading and writing? These tips on how to read to a child will help
overcome his strong challenges.
Consequently, he will start enjoying his journey of learning.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">1. A
conducive surrounding gives the place.
Get lots of eye-catching magazines and books inside the house—some for
the kid, some for you. Select an area
where to read regularly. Use your favourite
bench or porch swing. Provide a
beautiful bookcase for your child. When it’s time to read, get rid of
distractions: TV, computer, toys, or gadgets.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"></span></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: inherit;"><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2. Rehearse
your unique skills. While reading to a child, use tone and voice inflection
that can provide life to what you’re reading.
Share your humor, the grief, the anxiety, or surprises. Let there be a bit of drama heard in your
tone of voice. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">3. Provide
time for laughter. To read to a child
should also make room for other exciting activities. Share some jokes, fantastic stories, out-of-tune
rhymes, and words that sound silly. Read
aloud books with stories of humor that attracts children.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">4. Keep
the kids hanging. Begin with a book,
stimulate their interests then discontinue while the excitement is high. It
propels the child to ask for more. Older
kids may borrow the book so they can complete reading the story by themselves.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">5. Acknowledge
the child’s speed. Never do too much reading
to a child. Five to ten minutes is good enough in the beginning. Kids in kindergarten have shorter attention
span compared to older kids. Surely you
want the kid to have more, not to plead for you to rest.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">6. Train
the child to look for information. When
children ask hard questions, be honest in saying “I’m sorry, I do not know it,
I will guide you to find out the answer.” It allows you to direct them to other
sources in quest for the answer.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">7. Enlarge
their thoughts. Read to a child a
beautiful story but hang the story and don’t finish it. Tell the child to imagine what can happen
next. Once a bit discussion is over, read the remaining part aloud. Better yet, allow the child do the reading
for the last part of the story, and then share with you what is learned. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">8. Share
the enjoyment to others. Children love to listen to themselves. Begin recording their voice while reading
aloud then share the CDs to loved ones, friends, of fellow children.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">9. Look
for response and broaden their horizon.
To read to a child would mean receiving response from him. Teachers regard it as intellectual
capacity. Allow him to act like one of
the characters in the story. The next
days, make a picture, put ideas together, and review the information. Motivate the child to read some of his favourite
books to siblings or share the new knowledge to someone. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">10. Cultivate
a growing reporter. After a park visit, or
a journey in zoo, motivate the child to discuss and write about his
experience. Those who can’t write can
dictate their exciting stories. Two to
three sentences will be enough.
Encourage him to demonstrate it with an image, then begin to read this
to a loved one. The door is a proper
place to show off the craft ability of a child.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Parents
should always provide for their sincere approval. When the child shares his
reading skills, carefully pay attention and react positively. Your kid is after
your approval that’s why they want to please you. Parents’ approval is the
major source of strong encouragement. Cultivate the habit to always read to a
child; fifteen minutes or less will make the big difference.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 14pt;">Every year parents look forward to having summer fun with their kids through a vacation, but a few days spent cooped up in the house can make everyone a little crazy. If this sounds familiar, check out these seven ideas for summer fun.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">1. Make a T-shirt </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">Most kids love to make crafts, but crayons and construction paper get boring after a while. Instead of pulling out the art supplies, head to your local store or garage sale and purchase some inexpensive, solid-colored t-shirts. Kids can use fabric or acrylic paint, markers, dye or just about anything to make a shirt that they can wear proudly. You can also do this with hats or visors and inexpensive canvas sneakers. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">

<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">2. Go on a Picnic </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">Enjoying the great fun outdoors is a must during the summer, and one of the easiest ways to do that is by going on a picnic. Gather your kids up to make a menu and get them involved with the cooking and preparation. Assign each child an important job to do (gather silverware, make sandwiches, count juice boxes), and pick a table at your favorite park or even a sunny spot in your own backyard where you can enjoy your meal. As an added bonus, you and the kids can bake cookies or cupcakes for your excursion. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">3. Have a Scavenger Hunt </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">This one is a great summer fun for new readers who need to keep their skills sharp during the long weeks spent away from school and can be as easy or as elaborate as you would like. Simply make a list of common items your kids can find in your house or yard. These might include a rock, a coin, a red toy, a blue crayon - you get the idea. If your kids can't yet read, draw pictures or cut them from magazines. Have a prize ready for whomever finds all of the items.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">4. Arrange a Reading Contest </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">This one helps your kids stay on top of their education and it can be fun, too. Set up a goal number of books and any other rules you may want to include (such as books must be at least 20 pages long) and whenever your little readers reach a certain milestone reward them with stickers, trips to their favorite parks, sweet treats or movie night. Save the biggest reward for the largest number of books. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">5. Go Camping Inside</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">This one doesn't involve a tent or even the outdoors for fun. Allow your kids to set up camp in your living or family room by bringing pillows, blankets, sleeping bags and a bag of their favorite toys, books and snacks. Pop some popcorn and put a movie in the DVD player to add some extra joy. Summer fun may not always be done outdoors. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">6. Have Your Own Summer Olympics Fun</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">Summer is a great time of year to get your kids moving, and what better way to do that than having an Olympic-style competition? This isn't your average Olympics, though. Depending on how much money you want to spend, you will have to get creative with your competitions - three-legged races and egg and spoon races are always fun. You can set up obstacle courses with lawn furniture and use items such as beanbags, water balloons and bubbles to create other competitions. Just don't forget medals or rewards for the winning kids so they enjoy fully the summer fun.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">7. Volunteer at Your Local Animal Shelter </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 14pt; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">This idea is inexpensive and can teach your child about helping others. Most animal shelters allow people to come walk or play with the homeless pets. Just be sure you check ahead of time to make sure there are no age requirements for volunteers.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.917969); color: #222222; font-size: 13px; text-align: left;">
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="color: #262626; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">Summer time can be a great bonding time between the parents and the children. Make your summer worth remembering by trying to do at least two or more of the 7 ideas for summer fun with your kids. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Technology is becoming more and more a part of our everyday lives, so much so that most of us depend on it with our cell phones, car GPS, and computers. With our reliance on technical gadgets growing, why not rely on them more for entertainment and education rather than just work or necessity? The following is a list of seven family friendly additions for your tablet device, be it a Kindle, iPad, or eReader: </span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-alt: 8.75pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
1.Kid Mode: Kids Games + Child Lock<br />
(Android & iOS)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-alt: 8.75pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
This app acts like a “new user” on your computer, only on your tablet. The parent starts by setting up an “account” for each child with his or her name, birth date, and photo. Based on the child’s age, the app will adjust itself to provide age appropriate games, stories, and movies. You also have the option to add your own content. This app has a lot of options which makes it easy to customize it your child’s liking. This app also won<br />
<br />
2.Unblock Me<br />
(Android & iOS)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-alt: 8.75pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
One of the most challenging and entertaining games currently available. The game looks like a classic wooden puzzle, where you must unblock the red puzzle piece to remove it from the screen. However, the pieces in the way will only move in one direction. This game would provide any family member hours of fun as well as challenge their logic without them even realizing it!<br />
<br />
3. Draw<br />
(Android)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-alt: 8.75pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
This app is multifunctional. This can be used to “write” down quick notes or shopping lists, artistic drawing for entertainment, or even to practice writing for school age children. Not only is the app free, but it is a light app and will not take up much space. Apps such as these are great to keep your child occupied while sitting in the shopping cart, driving to see out-of-town family, or waiting at the doctor’s office.<br />
<br />
4.Dinosaur Zoo<br />
(iOS)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-alt: 8.75pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
This app allows you to own your own zoo and pick which dinosaurs you want to keep. Once you have your zoo set up, you must interact with your dinosaurs; including throwing them food, playing with them, and taking good care of them so that they do not run away! The app also provides fun facts and information about each dinosaur, as well as amazing animation to make the dinosaurs seem lifelike. There is also an option to upgrade and collect more dinosaurs to have a zoo as big or small as you choose!<br />
<br />
5. Family Circle<br />
(Android)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-alt: 8.75pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
While this is not a game, this is still a great addition to your Android device. This will allow you monthly access to the <i>Family Circle</i>magazine, without having to buy the paper version or subscribe by mail. How convenient to have a family-friendly magazine right at your fingertips for reading anytime!<br />
<br />
6. National Geographic for Kids<br />
(eBook)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-alt: 8.75pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
This magazine has been a favorite with kids and parents alike since its release. This magazine comes in a PDF format, so it is easily installed onto your Ereader, Android, or iOS device. This is also the entire magazine in digital form, so you won’t miss one bit of fun and learning!<br />
<br />
7. Word Rainbow<br />
(Nook eReader)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-alt: 8.75pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
Trick your kids into learning with this app available for your Nook eReader. This game gives you clues along with chunks of words that you must combine to find the correct word. This can be a great challenge for older kids, but also has different difficulty levels for new readers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Set aside a regular block of time to read aloud. Avoid times when your child has obligations such as homework or wants to watch a favourite TV program. Make a commitment and stay with it. If necessary, turn down other appointments. Think about the positive message that will send to your child.</span><br />

There will be times when your child wants to share or talk about a book he has read. You can’t always drop everything, but when you can, do. When you must postpone the request, explain why, commit to a time later in the day, and keep your commitment. The younger the child, the sooner that time should be.</span><br />

Read to a child and discover his interests. Adventure stories? Space? Flight? Horses? You may like “how to” books, but they may want to read about whales. As children grow older, involve them in selecting books. Introduce them to the library and make regular visits together. Not all books will appeal to your children, and not all are books you will want them to read. But you can introduce them to a better quality of literature as you determine criteria together, and they will be better prepared to make their own selections in the future.</span><br />

For example, if your child wants to learn more about space exploration, use materials he can comprehend. Younger children will learn more from books with pictures. Knowing that a man traveled to the moon may be enough to satisfy a beginner. How he got there will interest older readers.</span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 115%; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="line-height: normal;"><br />

Start where the child is. How do you find out? Read to the child and then ask him to read a page aloud. If you hear five or more mistakes, the book is probably too difficult. But if the subject holds the child’s interest, don’t deny the opportunity to learn. This is probably one of those books that you should read aloud to your child.</span></div><div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;"><br />

When kids make brushing and flossing part of their daily routine it will become second nature by the time they reach adulthood. On the other hand, people who don’t learn proper dental care as children have a difficult time correcting bad habits later on. Since this is not something that comes naturally it needs to be taught, and some children aren’t going to be willing pupils. Here are 10 tips for teaching reluctant kids to care for their teeth.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-alt: 13.2pt; mso-outline-level: 1;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="line-height: 18px;"><br />

Let your children watch you brush and floss and explain to them what you’re doing and why. They’ll love to feel like they’re able to something just like the grown-ups do.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.75pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 18.8pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 6.25pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #333333;">2.<span style="line-height: normal;"> </span></span><b><span style="color: #333333;">Start early </span></b><span style="color: #333333;">– Children won’t be able to brush their teeth by themselves until the ages of 3 or 4, so you’ll have to do it for them until then. This will give them time to get used to the idea that this is a part of a normal daily routine and they’ll look forward to when they can do it on their own.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.75pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 18.8pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 6.25pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #333333;">3.<span style="line-height: normal;"> </span></span><b><span style="color: #333333;">Make it fun</span></b><span style="color: #333333;"> </span><span style="color: #333333;">– Try to make brushing and flossing a fun activity and something to look forward to instead of just a chore. You can invent little games to play and be excited about it when they do a good job.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.75pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 18.8pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 6.25pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #333333;">4.<span style="line-height: normal;"> </span></span><b><span style="color: #333333;">Rewards </span></b><span style="color: #333333;">– Be sure to reward kids when they achieve goals like brushing by themselves for the first time or not having to be reminded. Give them an extra bedtime story or let them stay up another 15 minutes to prove how grown-up they are.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.75pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 18.8pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 6.25pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #333333;">5.<span style="line-height: normal;"> </span></span><b><span style="color: #333333;">Plaque monsters</span></b><span style="color: #333333;"> </span><span style="color: #333333;">– You can invent stories to help explain what happens if they don’t take care of their teeth. Tell them that after they eat food invisible plaque monsters are hiding in their teeth and they need to be brushed and flossed away.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.75pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 18.8pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 6.25pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #333333;">6.<span style="line-height: normal;"> </span></span><b><span style="color: #333333;">Give them choices</span></b><span style="color: #333333;"> </span><span style="color: #333333;">– Get children involved in the dental hygiene process by giving them choices. Let them pick out their own toothbrushes and toothpaste, and keep a variety on hand so they don’t get bored. Floss and mouthwash even come in different fun colors and flavors that they can choose from.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.75pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 18.8pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 6.25pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #333333;">7.<span style="line-height: normal;"> </span></span><b><span style="color: #333333;">Music</span></b><span style="color: #333333;"> </span><span style="color: #333333;">– It can be difficult to get kids to brush long enough, so music can help. Play their favorite song and tell them to keep brushing until the music stops. Pretty soon they’ll be brushing and flossing to the rhythm of the beat.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.75pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 18.8pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 6.25pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #333333;">8.<span style="line-height: normal;"> </span></span><b><span style="color: #333333;">Egg trick</span></b><span style="color: #333333;"> </span><span style="color: #333333;">– Children have a hard time grasping the concept of why it’s so important to care for their teeth. Explain how a hard boiled egg is like a tooth because the hard shell is like enamel. Place the egg in vinegar for 2 days and let them see how the shell has softened and explain that’s what happens to teeth with acid and bacteria in the mouth.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.75pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 18.8pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 6.25pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #333333;">9.<span style="line-height: normal;"> </span></span><b><span style="color: #333333;">Apple cavities</span></b><span style="color: #333333;"> </span><span style="color: #333333;">– Another experiment that helps explain cavities can be done with an apple. Cut a small chunk out of an apple and tell the kids it’s just like a cavity in a tooth. Set the apple somewhere so they can observe what happens over time. This will give them a visual example of how cavities rot the teeth just like the apple.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.75pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 18.8pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 6.25pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; tab-stops: list .5in; text-indent: -.25in;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #333333;">10.<span style="line-height: normal;"> </span></span><b><span style="color: #333333;">Start off right</span></b><span style="color: #333333;"> </span><span style="color: #333333;">– Make sure kids learn how to brush and floss properly from the very beginning and correct them until they get it right. Muscle memory will keep them doing it correctly for a lifetime instead of having to relearn later and try to break bad habits.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.75pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 18.8pt; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 6.25pt;"><br />

The kids are more likely to listen to the dentist and hygienist as authorities while they go over proper dental care techniques. These tips should help get your children off to a good start when it comes to caring for their teeth. Putting in the time and effort from the beginning will pay big dividends down the road for both your children’s teeth and your pocketbook.</span></span><br />

From the moment babies are born, one of the first things they will notice is colors. In fact, bright colors help babies, toddlers, and young children’s brain development. Regardless of your child’s age, you can always be doing something to help them out in learning colors, so consider these tips, based on how old they are!</span><br />

</span></div></div><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><b>1. Babies</b><br />
Babies are very aware of what is around them. They can’t tell you that they are learning, but they are learning very quickly. A great way to help your baby’s brain develop is by using bright colors in their rooms. Rather than use pastel or neutral colors to decorate the walls, use bright pink, blue, green, or red. Also use bright colors for their bedding. As you hand your baby toys, teach and help them learn the color’s name.<br />
<br />
<b>2. Toddlers</b><br />
Toddlers love to learn colors too! Use mealtime as a time to learn about colors. Talk about the red apples, the purple grapes, and the orange carrots. Teach the toddler and ask them to find the same color somewhere else in the room. Praise your toddler when they see the color again and recognize it. When you go outside for a walk; point out and teach the green trees and blue sky. Show them the colors of cars in the parking lot and see if they know those colors too. Get some books with color themes and read them to the toddler over and over. Teach them to point at the pictures of the book when you say the colors.<br />
<br />
<b>3. Preschoolers</b><br />
Because children learn with all their senses, it is important to find additional ways to teach your kids colors. Teach your preschooler to finger-paint and talk about the colors they are using to make designs on paper. Make up songs to learn their names. Purchase flash cards about colors or make your own from construction paper and teach your toddler what the colors are. Have a toddler group items together that are the same color, such as a green leaf, a green block, and a green apple. You may teach toddlers to begin to see the slight differences in shapes of colors by explaining that one item is a light green and one item is dark green.<br />
<br />
<b>4. Kindergarteners</b><br />
Kindergarteners are still learning about colors. They will probably know all the basic colors and can tell the difference between shades of green or shades of red on their own. Visit a store to buy workbooks in the toy department or teacher section. You can also find worksheets online to print out about colors. In addition, there are computer educational programs about colors for children to use. While at the store, teach the children about colors by helping you to shop. Teach your child to find the red can of tomatoes or the yellow container of mustard. Kindergarteners can also realize that just because something is of a different size, shape, or texture it can still be red. Find items of different sizes, shapes, and textures to help the child of this age to learn this concept. Find some games such as a plastic fishing pole and plastic fish of different colors so your children can fish for different colors of fish. By the end of kindergarten, most children know all of their colors, so perhaps it’s time to break out some paint??</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AOa_20cqREg/T3uQCpM6mgI/AAAAAAAAAaw/W1UigImStXY/s1600/Effective+Parenting+Roles+to+Children.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-AOa_20cqREg/T3uQCpM6mgI/AAAAAAAAAaw/W1UigImStXY/s1600/Effective+Parenting+Roles+to+Children.jpg" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">An effective way of parenting exists. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a married parent, a single parent, or a step parent. You are part of a family. Parents are all entrusted with the significant undertaking of bringing up children. During the early years of their lives, children are entirely dependent on their parents. The family must give security, motivation, financial provision, and schooling. The parents help children become accustomed to society. An objective of the parenting procedure is to move the children from total dependence to victorious autonomy. Preferably, each father and mother takes pleasure in being a part of this long process.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">If the goals are so clear and parents have the greatest intentions, why does raising children often seem so complicated and overpowering? Why can’t life be like it is on TV where families resolve unbelievably intricate problems in only thirty minutes? Why does it take us days to work out for apparently simple ones? <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The answer, certainly, is that the characters on TV are puppets stage-managed by directors, writers, and actors, while we and our children are human beings—unique individuals who do not fit into predetermined molds. All too often, we are not aware about effective parenting roles to children. We get embarrassed to talk about our problems with relatives or friends simply because we think we should be aware of what needs to do. We are setting high goals for ourselves and then feeling insufficient when we don’t accomplish them.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">We need to discontinue expecting flawlessness from ourselves as well as from our children. A more sensible goal is to persistently raise our efficiency in resolving the family problems that inescapably take place.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">To accomplish what are required parents must do the following crucial roles in dealing with their children accordingly:<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>1. Educator --</b><b> </b>Assist your children to build up new skills, strategies as well as abilities for taking right actions, instead of concentrating on a specific achievement on a certain situation.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>2. Direction --</b> Enhance your children's progress by using protective and helpful upbringing approaches. Along the way provide close supervision and ways on taking care of themselves.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>3. Adviser --</b> Give influence and guidance to strengthen significant values, beliefs while playing the role of a role model. A great adviser practices effective parenting roles to children.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>4. Opener --</b> Convey focus to your children about the goal or vision that awaits them. This will go beyond the boundaries of their family and community.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>5. Supporter</b> -- Recognize, accept and encourage a trait or uniqueness that’s already in your children. Help them totally develop these areas especially if they are not yet aware of their value.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Every child is a distinctively unique person, and each has his or her personal growing stages. In every stage of growing up, the reliance and needs for parents do change also. Keep in mind what is the child's manner and his age needs. In time, you will provide them the most effective parenting roles they, too, can pass on to their future children!</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />

It’s easy to put stuff like this off, but it could really end up saving you or your child's life one day. How to teach your child memorize phone numbers?</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"><br />
<b>1. The Importance of 911</b><br />
The first number you should teach your child is 911 or the equivalent emergency contact number in your area. You must emphasize that he should never dial this number unless it is an emergency. Ask your child questions to help him learn what constitutes an emergency and what doesn’t. For instance, ask him what he would do if he came home and found that nobody was home. Give the child guided questions, such as, "Would you call the police, or would you call Mom?" You can come up with other questions as well, such as "What would you do if there is a fire?" Hopefully, the child will say that he will go outside of the house and use a trusted neighbor’s phone to call the police. Make sure that the child understands what a crime is and if he calls 911 and it isn't an emergency, the whole family can get in trouble.</span></div><a name='more'></a> <br />

Memorization</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-PH;"><br />
It is crucial that your child has memorized your home phone number. Begin by having him repeat the first three numbers. Once he has repeated the numbers correctly several times, have him write the numbers on a piece of paper in big block type. To avoid getting bored, allow him to color the numbers in. Once you are sure the child has memorized the first three digits, teach the next four numbers in the same manner. Complete this exercise for all of the numbers that need to be memorized (neighbors, grandparents, police, etc). Keep in mind that cell phones have become less expensive and many children have phones in which they can easily look up any number they need. However, it is still important to have your child memorize these numbers, because if he is ever lost without his phone, it will come in handy.<br />
<br />
<b>3. Additional Games</b><br />
Other ways to teach your child memorize phone numbers is to make up songs. Have the child write the numbers down several times or have him create a story in which the numbers appear along the way. For instance, make up a short melody and then have him sing the melody back. For the storyline, ask the child to create a story in which the numbers you want to memorize appear in order. If he is supposed to memorize the numbers 432, you might start that story at 4th avenue and then have the main character pick up 3 apples at the second store on the right. Be creative and ask your child if he can think of any games to help remember important numbers. <br />

Following Up</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-PH;"><br />
To ensure that the child does not forget the numbers, test him every day for a week. After a week has passed, do it again the next week, the following two weeks, and then once a month. Teaching children how to memorize phone numbers is easy. But don’t forget to follow up, or your child will definitely forget all the numbers!</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><br />

</tbody></table><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;">Some children start using and playing apps earlier compared to others, because of that need, <b>iPad apps</b> have a variety of choices your toddlers can select from. The educational benefit of iPad apps is that they can grow with the kids. Try to read books from iPad with your kids today and two years later, they will be the ones reading for you.</span></div><h2 style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 115%;">Do you have older children? You can check out the following favorite iPad apps of preschool children.</span></span></h2><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">1. Monkey Pre-schooler Lunchbox </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">They are very cool. A happy, playful monkey will cheer you up while you’re counting fruit, match cards, and put together the puzzles. You will have a reward—stickers and a happily dancing monkey, definitely. This iPad app is very addictive. Some screens may need the assistance of a mom or a dad to help their toddler.</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">2. DR. Seuss’s ABC</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">Toddlers may begin early to learn the ABC alphabet. It is not easy to choose which books of DR. Seuss to purchase first, so you can begin it easy with the iPad apps. Next, you can add probably “The Cat in the Hat.” It’s all fun clicking an object on the screen then the word appears on it. Joined by a narrator, you will be told what it is. This app is great for a toddler’s early reading experience.</span></span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">3. Fish School HD</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">This latest educational iPad app is a disguising fun technique of a fish tank. It’s brought to you by the developer Duck Duck Moose. You can see how colourful fish will turn into numbers, letters, and shapes. The monitor for play time is the recess of the child during his learning time. It starts with the screen singing the alphabet while fish arrange themselves to form the alphabet letters.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">4. Letters A to Z </span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">This is a quiet and simple sequence of alphabet letters. Suitable for toddlers as well as for parents who are pissed off with loud and violent games. With the first glance, it seems you are to catch the letter on cards so you need to touch the images and the letters. You will hear audios reading the letters for you while the images have a little animation. This iPad app is recommended for children who are new to iPad and not yet hooked to technology.</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">5. Clickysticky </span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">This app is a sticker book to your iPad along with the 4 assorted scenes to select from. This allows your kids to have creative imaginations, adventures to outer space, deep under the sea, and play with helicopters and jets. One of the most-liked features of this is the fact that the noisy objects come from the elephant’s trumpet to silly aliens. Whhee!!!</span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">6. Trucks: Storyboy’s iPad app edition </span></div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div style="color: black; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">This app is very attractive. You may want to keep it on your list since it’s not fast to look for apps with great masculinity in them—even if little girls love trucks also. The app does show you an image of a truck and tell its name. The price is reasonable and you can add it to your apps collections. It won’t make you feel bad to delete it when your toddlers have outgrown it. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>iPads and apps</b> have the ability to make applications ideal tools for learning. Well-designed educational apps can always combine videos, texts, audios to generate something great regardless of the age of the children.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; font-family: inherit; line-height: normal;"><br />

</td></tr>
</tbody></table><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The<b> stages in growing up (from six to 12)</b> are usually on the move, going, doing, trying, and seeing different things. Perhaps they are described as restless. Because they love being active, they easily miscalculate how dangerous their exploits can be. They become overconfident and, lacking judgement, have accidents.</span></div><a name='more'></a> <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Nervous reactions such as nail biting, twitches or tics, or finger drumming may suddenly appear. They are usually caused by anxiety and can fade as swiftly as they appear. Parents and teachers can help reduce anxiety by having realistic expectations and goals. Children need adults to praise their efforts, regardless of the outcome. In other words, the effort, as well as the achievement, needs recognition. The environment thus created is one in which young people are willing to take risks as they try to find out who they are for these stages in growing up.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Children between six to twelve are eager to learn and are interested in a wide variety of things. Generally, they can speak better than they can write, and they like hearing themselves talk. They delight in repeating a story that has gory or scary details. They willfully dominate conversations and may need some help in learning to share the spotlight.</span></div><span style="color: black;"> </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The stages in growing up (from six to 12) have a strong desire for peer acceptance. They might participate in sports or join clubs devoted to some special interest and thus begin forming a peer-group identity. They usually like the stability of having a best friend of the same sex. Together, they share secrets, interests, and enemies. They attack their enemies, verbally or physically, without realizing how devastating their words or actions might be. Parents must maintain a delicate balance between interceding and letting the young people work out conflicts on their own. </span></div><span style="color: black;"> </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">As children identify themselves with peers, they want to dress like other members of the group and they sometimes go along with collective decisions, even when they know their parents would disapprove. To pre-adolescents, the admiration and respect of their peers are more important than how their parents or teachers regard their behavior. They might show off, boast, act silly, or even break the law to gain peer approval. They seem to enjoy the shock value of using swears words, belching, and passing gas; and they roar with laughter over their blatant obnoxiousness. The stages in growing up (from six to 12) are well aware of what is acceptable and unacceptable and seem to love defying family standards. </span></div><span style="color: black;"> </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">On the other hand, pre-adolescents fear rejection by their parents as well as rejection by their friends. This puts parents in a difficult position—they have the responsibility of keeping their children safe, of enforcing family rules, and of maintaining family values without seeming to reject or belittle the children. During these stages in growing up it is imperative that parents maintain an atmosphere in which the children feel free to discuss their feelings. Their complaints, even when seemingly unjust or ridiculous, should be discussed, not dismissed.</span></div><span style="color: black;"> </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">If pre-adolescents are frequently made to feel ashamed of themselves, they may threaten to behave in self-destructive ways. Threats of leaving home or harming themselves are too serious to be taken lightly. When a youngster feels there is no hope, he or she needs professional help. Family therapy can help the child and parents become more effective with each other.</span></div><span style="color: black;"> </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">As children pass through these <b>stages in growing up,</b> parents need to continually believe that there will be a positive outcome. The hope-filled attitude will encourage everyone involved. Undoubtedly there isn’t a more challenging job than being a parent; at the same time, there isn’t a job with more potential satisfaction and joy.</span></div><span style="color: black;"> </span><br />
