Kids and Dolls in the Digital Age


Sometimes I feel like I’m living in a rather large toy box with a roof and wifi! I’m an average kind of mom, living in an average kind of home with four kids. I’m pretty sure that if a time traveler from fifty years ago came to visit us today, he or she would notice two things:

1. Boy, do these people have a lot of TVs!
2. Whoa…toys…everywhere!

They would be amazed at all the gizmos and gadgets lying around. Tablets, game systems, smart phones and of course TVs in every room; we have a lot going on when it comes to entertainment.

With all of these modern forms of entertainment available at their fingertips, our time traveler would wonder if the children living in this home had any time for playing with the myriad toys that are strewn around the house.

It’s true that my children spend a tad more than the "recommended" amount of screen time (oops!) engaged with their gadgets, but it’s also heartwarming to know that they willingly unplug themselves from their devices on a regular basis to play with their “old fashioned” toys. They actually get bored of all the digital goings on and put them down to go play with their dolls!

Some of my daughters’ favorite toys include dolls and a dollhouse. We have so many dolls that it’s hard to keep track, but the list includes Barbies (and a whole host of Barbie-esque dolls like Monster High, Ever After High and Equestria Girls), American Girls, Baby Dolls and the tiny dolls that live in the doll house as well as a few mermaids and various other random characters. I love it that even though the girls are not very far away from the teenage years, they are still happy playing with dolls.

To me as a parent, dolls and dollhouses are one of the best toys out there because:

• They are sociable - my daughters play with dolls together as well as on their own and with friends

• They’re learning life skills without realizing
o from simple things like getting dressed and picking outfits
o to more complex ideas like how to get along with friends and how different people within the family play different roles

• They act out social situations with their dolls, so they’re basically role-playing or practicing for real life situations like family disputes/resolutions, vacations, mealtimes etc.

• They are relatively portable and not messy – the girls are allowed to pack a few special dolls when we go on vacation.

At the end of a day with us, our new time traveling friend would see that my children love their dolls and their dollhouses in spite of the fact that we are surrounded by enticing digital devices. Most of our dolls have names and many of them are precious friends. Dolls and their houses and here to stay!

Easy Ways to Motivate Yourself to Stay Healthy

Anyone who tries to keep fit and healthy knows that it can be hard. One of the toughest things is maintaining motivation to keep you going. If you're tired, or you're not reaching your goals, you can feel discouraged or sometimes just lazy. Most people need help staying motivated, however, and there are lots of techniques you can use. If you find it hard to encourage yourself to get to the gym or make a nutritious dinner, don't give up on leading a healthy lifestyle. Keep reading to find out some of the best ways to motivate yourself to stay fit.


Work Out with Friends and Family



For some people, working out alone is a depressing thought. They know in their head that they should get off their butt and change into their gym clothes. But the only person relying on them doing it is them. If you struggle to work out just for yourself, doing so with other people can help. For one thing, it means there's someone else relying on you. You're more likely to go to the gym if you've made a pact to go with your friend. It also makes working out more social. You can turn exercise into a family day out by going for a walk or taking a bike ride.


Set Yourself Goals



It's difficult to get anything done if you don't have something to aim for. When you first decide to live a healthier lifestyle, you might have obvious goals. Maybe you want to lose a certain amount of weight or be able to run in a 5k. But what do you do after that? Just staying fit and healthy isn't a concrete goal that you can measure. You need to keep setting goals for yourself, whether they're big or small.

6539171307_8d05a3a271_z.jpg

Join a Community Gym



A lot of people are wary about going to the gym. It can feel intimidating and unwelcoming, especially when it's frequented by fitness fanatics. Choosing the right gym can make all the difference, so look for one with a sense of community. If you take out a YMCA membership, you'll find a mix of people from all walks of life. People there are looking to live a healthy lifestyle, not just bulk up on muscle.


Get Interested in Food



Eating well is a huge part of staying healthy. It's not all about working out. But planning your healthy meals can get boring when you have to do it every week. One of the best things you can do to help is learn more about your food. Get enthusiastic about where it comes from, how it's cooked and what it takes like. You could take a cookery course, visit a farm or even grow your own fruit, vegetables and herbs.


Give Yourself Incentives



Rewards can help to motivate you to do something you're struggling with. For example, some new running groups aim to end their run at a restaurant for dinner. Think of something to keep in mind as you work out. Maybe if you eat healthily all week, you can have a treat on Sunday.


Think of the ways to motivate yourself while you have the will to. Don't leave it until you're not feeling very enthusiastic because it won't work.

Mom's Guide to Running a Successful Online Business


Once you’ve had a child, being a mother will always be your primary job role. However, that shouldn’t stifle your ambition to achieve great things in the world of business.

Juggling a full-time job with motherhood can be almost impossible. If the opportunities won’t present themselves to you, then it’s time to create your own. Starting a business will give you flexibility, and could also be the key to unlocking a brighter future for you and your family.

It won’t be easy. But technological advancements have made it possible for ambitious moms to fulfill their aspirations. Here’s how you can turn those dreams into a reality.

Educate Yourself


You can’t just jump in at the deep end and expect everything to fall into place. To run a successful business, you must equip yourself with the skills and knowledge to make it a possibility.

HND Courses can help you become more business savvy. Meanwhile, you can use other students and lecturers as a soundboard for your ideas.

Preparation is a key part of any business, and education is your platform to build a solid foundation. Complete these studies alongside your business venture and you should see a positive outcome.

Outsource Work


It doesn’t matter how fantastic you are; it’s impossible to run a venture single-handedly. It’s not hard to understand why you want to keep this baby to yourself, but doing so will slow down the process.

At the same time, small startups won’t want to get into the habit of hiring staff and sending their expense through the roof. This is especially true when you’ve got your own family items to buy. Besides, assembling a team would mean inviting them into your home, or renting a business space. Quite frankly, it’s beyond the realm of possibility.

However, you can hire online freelancers to complete single tasks. It’s a cost-effective, time-effective approach and could be the key to driving your business forward. It has to be better than learning how to use graphic design software for the sake of one poster.

Spread The Word


Regardless of your industry, building a successful business platform is only half the battle. If you want the venture to make money, you need customers.

If you’re business is an online venture, it only makes sense that you utilize the World Wide Web throughout your marketing schemes. Search engine optimisation will help improve your website’s visibility on websites like Google. This can become a cornerstone for your company's online success.

Nine in 10 internet searches starts with a trip to platforms like these, so ranking highly will bring a huge increase in traffic. Meanwhile, you can use social media marketing to increase brand awareness.

Search For New Money Making Streams


One of the great things about online business is that your products and services aren’t the only way to make money.

Starting a monetized blog can help you raise more funds while also building a loyal following of supporters. Likewise, a successful YouTube could quickly establish itself as a secondary source of income.

As a new business, your eyes should be open to any opportunities that come your way. If you’re making the most of the available resources, you won’t go far wrong.

Ordering Medical Products Online


In last few years most of the pharmacies started taking their business online. By doing this, it is possible to sell the drugs with lower costs and to quickly transport them to final address. Given that the drugs are products which are used by sick people this means that they are able to get necessary assistance without ever leaving their home. This represents a necessary assistance for all those who are not able to physically go to a place of business and get the medicine by themselves. However, similarly to many other internet based companies, certain issues occurred in the process.

Drugs are specific product. Similarly to food, they have expiration date. If used after that period, certain side effects can befall the body. This is why it is very important to have products which are still usable. The fact that internet business opened its door to many entrepreneurs made it possible for individuals without proper documentation to start selling drugs. Unfortunately, there is still no proper regulation that will forbid companies from selling medicines if they don’t have needed certification. In the end, final consumers are those that suffer the most because many of these products will not provide adequate solution to their issues. So, in that regard, it is necessary to understand the difference between good and bad companies in order to get appropriate care.

Pharmacies that have fulfilled all the necessary conditions imposedby FDA can receive certificate that will confirm that they are an official online pharmacy supportedby US governing body. Among other, these companies have a special extension on the internet - pharmacy. On the other hand, if the company has domain belonging to some other country and they are still selling drugs on US territory, it is very possible that the company is not able to provide adequate support. In that case, you should avoid them at all cost.

Most of the drugs that are sold on the market require doctor’s prescription. If the online pharmacy doesn’t require a prescription in order to ship you the drug, the pharmacy is not working according to legislation and should not be trusted. The only way for a person to acquire certain drugs is to possess a valid document which is allowing them to purchase the said medicine for treatment of a particular condition. Experts from DoctorMedica.com are warning consumers not to purchase the drugs without prescriptions even if the drug provided is good. It is necessary to consult your doctor before administering any type of therapy because different products can lead to certain side effect. 
 
Pharmacies cannot exist without certified pharmacists. Given how specific drugs are, it is important to have a person that understands the medicines, substances that are within them, as well how to behave in case of unwanted side effects. It is impossible to run drugstore without a professional who can assist you with this. Knowledge about products is that much more important given that the patient’s health is at stake. If an online drugstore doesn’t have certified pharmacists, you probably shouldn’t buy their products because the risk may be too high.

Five Reasons Hiring A Tutor Is a Great Step To Further Your Kids Learning


Children’s academic prowess varies from child to child. Some need more help than others, and some instantly take to school like a fish takes to water. Which one would you say needs a tutor? Well, the honest answer is they both can benefit from a tutor. As a society, we often only think we need help when we are struggling. However, even if we can stand on our own two feet, there is nothing wrong with bettering yourself. When it comes to children, it inhibits their ability to learn, and that is a potential disaster.


Here are five more reasons hiring a tutor could be the best thing that you ever did for your children.

One To One

Schools are flawed in some respects. Because every child has a right to a free education, there are often more children than educators in one class. And, because school funding goes off how many kids pass their exams, too much emphasis is put on teaching them the bare minimum. Tutors at VaultPrep.com will tell you that kids respond far better when they have the time and attention of their teachers. Although that might not be the case at school, it can be the case at home.

Focus

Kids have difficulty focusing in the classroom. We have all been there and at the time it good to be the class clown or try and impress a certain boy or girl. There is no doubt it is fun for them, but it is also disruptive. Kids have small attentions spans to begin with, and they only get smaller the stimuli they are to get in the way. One to one tuition normally takes place in a controlled environment where they can focus solely on studying.

Only One Chance

Exams are usually heavily weighted to a child’s final grade, which means there is a lot of pressure. In fact, it means they only have one chance to succeed. Passing their exams could be the only chance they get for getting into the school or university of their dreams, so why take the chance? A tutor will increase the chances of passing and moving onto higher education and hopefully a degree.

Increases Confidence

Kids have been known to let their confidence drop in the classroom if they are not happy. Instead of telling their teachers when they don’t understand, they bottle it up because they don’t want to look stupid. A lack of confidence can then spiral out of control and affects their mental attitude. Kids won’t want to learn because they think they can’t, and that is when their grades will fall off dramatically. A tutor will go at your children’s pace and let them gain the confidence they need to understand certain concepts. Better yet, they will encourage and inspire.

Maintains Skills

The summer time is a good break for everyone, but it can have a negative effect on kids. Over the summer, they might lose the cognitive skills they have just learned in school. So, when they go back it like starting back at square one. They might as well take one step forward and two steps back! A tutor will maintain their skills over the summer so they go back refreshed and ready.

5 Green Baby Care and Cleaning Tips


From feeding your baby to singing himself/herself to sleep, there are plenty of responsibilities associated with your bundle of joy. One of them is cleaning. As a loving and caring parent you want to use the safest and healthiest cleaning solutions to get rid of bacteria and dirt around the home. However, store-bought cleaners are usually quite toxic. For this reason, it's best to think about some green alternatives. Keep reading to find out how to keep your baby's belongings sanitary and clean at all times with these five green cleaning tips.

1. Baby's Belongings


Having a baby is a great time to start using baking soda for cleaning rather than for cooking. You can use baking soda for nearly anything when it comes to cleaning your bundle of joy's personal items. Take changing tables. They need to be cleaned and disinfected regularly. With a solution of plain water and a little baking soda you can do the trick without putting your baby's health at risk. Additionally, use the white powder to clean the mattress and crib. Just sprinkle a little baking soda on them and wipe down with a wet sponge. Then rinse with a clean wet sponge and let dry.

2. Brushes and Combs


Push the sink stopper and fill your sink with water. Add a squirt of liquid castile soap or a teaspoon of baking soda. Let the liquid/powder dissolve into the water. Soak the brushes and combs into the water. The next thing you want to do is rub the items with a toothbrush or swish them around. Rinse with clean water and dry.

3. Toys


Soak rubber toys and non-cloth toys in a solution of water and natural soap or baking soda and let stand for a while. Rub well with a clean sponge and rinse. Let dry.



Toss stuffed animals in a plastic bag and add as much baking soda as necessary to cover all of them. Close the bag and shake a few times to allow the baking soda to get to all toys. When you are done, take a handheld vacuum and remove the white powder off the toys.

4. Baby Bottles


The quickest way to clean your baby bottles is to use a little baking soda and warm water. What you should do is fill all the way with water and add a teaspoon of the white substance. Shake well and let sit for a few more minutes. Go back to it and rinse well.



Another way to do this is to use mild soap. Try liquid castile soap. It's natural and harmless. It's great for your small one. Use a brush and clean the bottle as usual. Let dry completely.

5. Baby Laundry


With a baby around, dirty clothes keep piling up. It is important to clean and wash your baby laundry properly to protect your small one from harmful microorganisms. Add a spoonful of vinegar to the detergent department of your washing machine when washing your baby's clothes. This will keep bacteria and germs at bay. If desired, you can also use baking soda. Just make sure to add ½ cup of baking soda along with the laundry detergent before you run a full cycle.



If you experience spit-up stains, be sure to sprinkle baking soda over them as soon as you can to make them easy to clean. Toss them in the washing machine and let it do the trick.



This nature-friendly cleaning kit is perfect for keeping your baby's items dirt-free, hygienic and smelling fresh. Top Domestic Cleaners Hammersmith hopes this article was useful.
