| Article Title :: Scrapbooking a Lifetime of Memories |
| |
|
Scrapbooking is a popular hobby these days. There are books,
magazines, websites, companies, and meeting groups dedicated to
preserving our photo memories in a personally meaningful way. I
have a dear friend who creates scrapbooks that are truly works
of art; people actually pay her to make scrapbooks for them. My
scrapbooks will never reach that level of sophistication,
consisting only of photos attached to colored paper and simple
captions. Nevertheless, I hope that my children will someday
appreciate the books I have made for them. Each boy has his own
book so that when they grow up and leave the nest, they can take
a piece of their past with them. In their books are all the
pictures you (read full article) |

| Article Title :: School Principal Discovers Effective Supplement For Kids With
Concentration Problems. |
| |
|
For Dallas elementary school principal Denise Hampton, the
miraculous journey that was about to unfold started with her
niece Ashley's concentration problems in school.
Ashley, who was ten years old at the time, was having the same
problem that many kids her age experience in school: lack of
focus and concentration. Far too often, kids with these issues
are hastily labeled with ADD or Attention Deficit Disorder.
Ashley's fate, however, was taking a turn for the better.
Hampton was exploring therapy options for her niece when a
Dallas physician suggested a new class of nutrients called
glyconutrients. Hampton found that these nutrients provide the
body with eight special sugars called mo (read full article) |

|
Does baby shower hostess etiquette allow for gift
suggestions, if yes, how? Here you will find numerous ways how
the baby shower host can provide the baby shower gift
suggestions to everyone invited in a most systematic way.
Although, gift giving is something very personal based upon the
individual liking and disliking along with the affordability.
But these days baby showers are becoming more trendy and
generally geared towards convenience and suitability.
These days people are more understanding. Most of the time they
are willing to give suitable gifts (that can be utilized by the
recipient). Theme parties are invading the old den of great

| Article Title :: Creative Ways to Interest Younger Kids in Traditional Toys |
| |
|
K.A.G.O.Y. (“kids are getting older, younger”) is an acronym
that popped up in the toy industry literature about 6 years ago.
KAGOY is the allure, to younger kids, of toys meant for older
kids, for example, 6 year old girls abandoning baby dolls for
make-up and their male counterparts leaving their Legos for
video games. A recent Google search of K.A.G.O.Y. revealed that
age compression is still an ongoing phenomenon and is becoming
even more pervasive.
So what is an internet toy retailer, much less a brick and
mortar toy retailer, to do? If you’re not selling electronic
games, what can you do to attract young customers and keep them
coming back to your website in the future?

Resource for Parents and Teachers Dealing with Bullying Author
Interview with Patricia Gatto and John De Angelis, Milton’s
Dilemma By Lisa M. Hendey
We hear all too frequently about the devastating escalation of
“bullying” in today’s society – young lives destroyed forever,
families ripped apart, and a pattern of violence that seems to
be ever increasing. Concerned parents and teachers need to be
informed about recognizing and dealing with bullying, and a new
book from authors Patricia Gatto and John De Angelis provides a
great resource.
Milton’s Dilemma (Providence Publishing, June 2004, hardcover,
32 pages) tells the story of ten year old Milton and his

| Article Title :: Baby Shower Games |
| |
|
The perfect way to spoil the baby shower games is when
there is less involvement and participation from your guests.
Have you ever been to a baby shower party, any kind of party,
and been bored to death? Well, I have, and let me tell you, they
are as boring as they get.
Also you don’t have a choice but to grin and bear it because you
don’t want to demotivate or offend the guest of honor. Would you
like to have that kind of baby shower game party for your
guest of honor? I know the answer would be a big NO.
Baby shower games keep the party lively and
entertaining:
No two ways about it. Baby shower
games when introduced in the party and managed well will

Temperatures are on the rise and so is the anticipation to get
your home ready for maximum enjoyment. It’s time to get
motivated for the season.
It’s always advisable to take
a good hard look around every room before you begin. Make a
mental list of those areas you most want to work on, then push
them aside. We all know what we SHOULD do: Air out the house,
clean the carpets, get the dog groomed, dust top to bottom. Kind
of bums you out, huh?
So, let’s start with fun things
first.
It’s time to wash the blankets and comforters in
order to store them until next year. Now you can look forward to
re-dressing beds with your favorite patchwork quilts.
