Top 10 Android Apps for kids

--> If you have an Android device and have kids too, then, you have a blessing. Because it is a common fact you have to go out of your home with your kids for many things, such as, for recreation, for Doctor visit, for shopping, for school etc. And usually happens you caught in traffic, or you have wait for Doctor  or you have to wait for anything else, at that time that android device becomes a blessing for you, because you can use it to entertain your child. Your child will be happy to play a game there.
There are so many apps are available for kids that are not only entertaining  but useful also for learning purpose.
The android apps that I like for son, niece and nephews are

• Talking Friends
• Fruit Ninja.
• Toddler Taping Zoo
• Kids Alphabets
• Kids finger paint
• Kids numbers and math
• Colors
• Spelling bee
• Real Piano
• Monkey Preschool Lunch Box

I think these are the best Android Apps. Some of these are useful for kid's education and learning also.

My own son, who is of one and half years, loves to play with talking friends and Real Piano. Talking Tom is his best friend. I feel, he also gets improved his sounds and vocabulary while playing with talking Tom. Other than this he like to play Piano or Guitar on his uncle’s cell phone. Particularly, in the load shedding hours (my country is now suffering from bad energy crises, we have to face 16-18 hours load shedding), these games becomes a blessing for me.  

You can try these Apps for your kids also. 

Note: What is your kid’s best App?

The Top 10 Things to Deter a Child a from the abuse of Alcoholism

-->

Alcohol is a drug like cocaine and marijuana. It is dangerous for kids and its use is illegal for individuals under the age of 21. The kids, who use alcohol, may become the victims of violent crimes or can be involved in drinking related traffic crashes or accidents. They may also have to face the problems at school.

          You may think, “My child is not drinking yet.”  No, you are wrong. You must keep them aware of drinking and drugs. If you want to be strong parents, then, you would have to plane for it. As a parent you, yourself should have proper awareness about alcoholic products and their harm. After that, you need to take some steps for your child, against the use of alcoholic drinks.

          Now the question is how you would deter your child from alcohol abuse. You can do a few things to prevent your child from alcohol.

1)    You should observe keenly your child’s activities, i-e what is he doing? How does he spending his time?  You should inquire about his routine, time to time, so that the child remains alert about his routine which is being observed by his parents. But it does not mean you impose yourself on him/her, this may make him frustrated. Your behavior should be friendly.

2)    You need to build strong taboo to your child. You need to discuss his/her problems and try to make yourself caring parents, so that they do not hesitate to share their problems. Because sometime they are forced to take alcohol. You need to discuss with them about their problems and get them out of bad situation.

3)    You must keep an eye on your child’s company.  You should be aware of their friends and their parents, because, oftenly company affects the habits. If your child is moving in a community having alcoholic background, then, there would be a chance, your kid may start drinking.

4)    Another big reason for drinking among kids; especially in teens, is, ad campaigns on TV channels and other electronic media. The motivating style of ads and other programs, such as movies, TV shows etc. attracts the innocent minds to use alcoholic drinks. Hence the parents should make their children aware of fatal effects of alcohol. The parents also need to avoid their children from watching such harmful programs on electronic media.

5)     Another reason for drinking among kids or teen is their boredom. Sometimes children start drinking to beet their boredom. For this purpose, parents need to indulge their children in some healthy activities, such as, after school supervised activities, and other co curricular activities. If you belong to the community where schools do not offer such activities, then, you have to manage alternative. For example, you can arrange a get together with the help of other parents. Then your child no more need to drink to beet his/her spare time.

6)    The most important thing for parents regarding this issue is their role in their child’s life. A parent is a role model for their young ones. Walk the talk, how can you expect your child to stay away from alcohol if you, yourself don’t. You need not to drink in the presence of your child.

7)    The depression is another main reason for drinking. Therefore you need to keep your child away from the issues that may make him/her depress. You must have to resolve your family issues that cause tension in your family life.

8)    Research your state law for underage drinking. Then have a sitting with your child and discuss the outcomes of getting caught. It will make your child not only aware of rule but also responsible.

9)     You can create a drinking contract for your child. Suppose, you do not allow your child to attend a party where alcohol is available, you also would have an offer to drive for your child anytime. Your child would not travel with a person who is drinking. You can decide different articles of contract by mutual understanding, and the consequences, in the case of breaking contract.

10)                       You can seek positive mentor for your child, outside the family. The groups or persons who would fortify belief and values of your family. Your child can formally obtain a mentor through spiritual or religious groups.

Your child is most precious treasure for you. You need to keep him away from bad situations. Although, it needs a bit struggle, but your little effort can save your future, because, child is your future. So, save your child, save your future.

Work online for Moms at Home

9KDSG63QHWK3 As in the previous post, I try to tell that How and Why some Moms have to leave the job and try to do some thing at home. Some women start some small business like stitching and sewing, Baby sitter or some thing else like this. But, today most of them prefer to do some work online according to their ability.
Now the question is " What to do?" and "From where to start?"  Because many sites that offer work online are scam.
You need some trustworthy place to work. If you are looking for some type of online job then the freelance sites are the best source.but be aware all freelance sites are not trustworthy. If you want to be a freelancer, the best sites are:
O Desk
E Lance
Scriptlance and
Freelancer.com
These are the best sites for you, if you want to work as a free lancer. You can work here according to your own schedule.  It takes some time to fetch first job on these sites but when fetch your first job and done it successfully. Then you might be awarded with some positive feed back and then it will start of your success on these sites.
Other than freelancing, there are more options for at home moms, such as surveys. If you are living in some developed country, e.g U.S, U.K, you can join a network which offers online surveys. A survey usually takes 20-30 minutes to response and you awarded $2-$15 for each survey.
Other than this there are more options such as captcha filling and PTC sites. But, I am not in favor of this type of work as it is basically illegal. And courtly we should follow the rules.
According to my opinion  your own own site or blog is the best plate form for you.

Working Moms

Everyone wants to be independent. Today most of the young and energetic women are doing some job or business. But when they got married and have babies, it become quiet difficult for women to continue their with their little kids. Therefore, many have say goodbye to their jobs and some of them continue their jobs and business as usual.
many of working moms face problems regarding their kids and jobs, because kids are really a full time job. Therefore it becomes so hard to balance the family needs and jobs. I salute those mothers who do such hard work. And the mothers who are not doing jobs or have left their jobs, I also solute them, because they sacrifice their carriers for sake of their little kids. Now, there are two types of mothers, 1st, are the mothers who have no one at home to take care their kids or are deprived of day care centers facility and 2nd, are the mothers who want to grow up their kids in their own supervision, because of their deep attachment to the kids.
The mothers who leave their jobs after having kids, usually have two type of planes. 1st, no more business or job other than their kids and 2nd are the moms who try to work at home. Now the question is "How to work at home?"  and "What to do from home?" At home moms can start their own business or work. I have seen many mothers in Pakistan to do stitching and sewing business and at home coaching and tuition. Or other craft at home such as flower making, decoration pieces so on.
 In our rural areas I have seen many mothers who were working in the fields, having their babies at their backs. They also perform all domestic tasks by themselves and have to serve their male companions ( husband, brothers, fathers, sons) too, as, our society is a pure male dominating society. So the working mothers that belong to my society have to suffer twice than that mother who are spending their lives in a developed and groom,ed society. 
In short, we should solute all working moms who have to perform double duty as compare to an ordinary at home mom.
Share your opinion and your own stories as a working mother.

Eating Problems

-->

image source:http://www.sxc.hu/

Today I am writing this post because of an incident that happened a few moments ago. I was working on my P.C, and my little son was playing with my husband. He thought the child is might be hungry. So, he took some pieces of hickory nuts and started to give to Ashhal(my son). Ashhal will be of two years in May 2013. Anyway, when Ashhal started eating those nuts, the next moment was horrible for him. Because he was trying his best to swallow the nuts but he could not and what was next? You can imagine, the, next thing was bad vomiting, that was coming out not only from mouth but nose also, even he was unable to breathe properly. He was too much terrified. And denied to take anything like water or milk.
I became so embarrassed in this situation. Now, he is sleeping and looking so cute and innocent. I want to save you from such type of situation. Do not feed your little kids on hard stuff  or big bites. Always feed the kids on soft food and take them food in very small pieces or small bites that would be easy to injest for them.  -->

Online Games for kids.

Kids always love to play games. There are thousands of games are available on different websites. Some sites offer to play online and some are downloadable. Now it is up to the gamer, how he wants to play?  and what he wants to play? Because, there are many types of games, such as games for fun, leaning games, games having campaigns and adventures etc.

image source: http://www.sxc.hu/

I have seen many kids who become addicted of these games. Now when you are going to allow your kid to play game in spare time, you must have to make schedule for your child. Because access of everything is bad. The excessive use of online games is harmful for the eyes and physical growth of your child. And kids do not take much interest in other tasks. Therefore, I would suggest that there should be  a proper schedule in which you decide how many hours a child should spend to play games and what type of games he should play. Suppose, one hour  for funny games, one for learning games, one for intellectual activity etc. It would be fruitful for your kids and you too.

I think in 2012 the cartoon characters that in most fame are;

• Tom and Jerry

• Ben 10
• Looney Tunes
• Scooby Doo

Chirstmas in Next Street!

--> As December gets started, everyone gets excited for Christmas. As usual, this year  also the Christmas appears more exciting and enjoyable. Either my country is a Muslim country but the Christmas is celebrated here with all its traditional joy.

Image source, http://www.sxc.hu

It was public holiday on 25 Dec. We were relaxed for next day.There is a church in next street. I can see it through my window It was 8:00 pm, I peep through the window, and saw an amazing scene. First of all I had a glance on colorful lights that were appearing more heart touching in that fogy night, and the cute kids with their colorful caps on their heads and with red noses, were playing in a circle, singing Christmas song. I wish to join those kids. They had very innocent smiles on their faces and light of joy in their eyes. Anyhow, they were careless about that chill and were enjoying those precious moments of  their life.I was enjoying those moments, suddenly someone knocked the door. When I opened it. There was a little kid having a cake in his hands with a cute smile. He belongs to a christian family that were living in my street. His mother is a good friend of mine, that's why she sent me that cake. We both send some gifts to each other at our special days.     

Next morning I visit that street. The church was beautifully decorated. The thing that appeals me more was the excitement of little kids. Some of them were playing in that street, some were crying for something, some were taking sweets and cake and some of them had gift packages in their hands and wanted to show those gifts to their friends. In the meanwhile, the Church bell rang and all hustle bustle was gone,   street was deserted. I could hear the songs that were being sung in the church. I came back to my home. And felt a new spirit in my soul. These moments were really unforgettable.     

Fashion for kids

--> Now a days everything needs to follow some trends. In the same way, the dressing and style express your style. As you are curious about your look and wants to be stylish and good looking, in the same way your kids also need to be good looking and charming.
As you know, little kids do not have any awareness. It depends on their care taker, how they make their kids stylish. It is training for your children to how dressed up properly, according to trend and their own look. The children, whose parents are conscious about their look and style, they are more sensible about their fashion, when they are grown up and not need to be dictated.
In this case, parents keep in view their kid's complexion and physic.Because when you go to shop dresses for you children and like the piece that appeals you in term of color and design. But, keep in your mind it may not suit to your child's complexion. Sometime you bought more fluffy and stuffy dress, but your kid is thin and lean, it would not suit him. Or some time you choose a bright color but your kid has some how dark complexion, then it would not make your child more prominent. Therefore I want to say, select according to your kid's look, not for only design and color.   
Some times kids not like to wear some type of stuff, e.g, my own niece hate to wear tight dresses. she likes to wear loose and soft dress.
The other thing is the color scheme. You manage it as contrast or matching. Some colors are suitable with any combination. Such as black, brown, gray, these colors facilitate you in shoe selection for kids.
Be charming and take care of your kids.

5 Point for Kids Playground Design

+Women of Google+ Play ground for kid are necessary for their proper physical fitness, development of motor skills, social interaction and much more. Building a great play ground involves to combine all those ideas that can create a single integrated place that is not only loved by kids but also, is an aid for their development and physical fitness.
Here are some points that will help you to design and build a nice play ground for your kids.

Free Play:

Today kids have lot of choices, such as, soccer, gymnastic, tea ball, craft classes, DVDs, and more than 50 TV channels. No the question is, Where does the play ground fit it?

The adults think that the bet experience for kid is the game and activities directed by adults. But, the truth is, hen kids play without adult intervention, they become more confident, creative and spontaneous. Because organised activities does not allow the kids to pretend and express themselves freely. 

--> The play grounds promote free play, that builds social skills, sportsman spirit, confidence and self-esteem satisfaction.   There free play activity by play ground authority is much important.

Free play does not mean without the presence of adult. It mean without intervention of  adults.  

Kids Stuff:

Now the question is how to promote free play at play grounds. Its all about stuff in play ground. There are many issues regarding equipment; its size, safety and cost etc. And the stuff is needed according to different age groups of kid. Therefore it should be divided into three parts. one for Pre-school kid, one for 5-10 years kid and one for 10 and more. 

Approach for all kids:

While building a play ground it should also kept in view that the play ground should be accessible for all kids. The designer should also keep in view the special kids. There should be activities for handicaps, the blind the deaf and dump kids also. 

Balance :

80% injuries in play grounds are caused by the unbalance surfaces.  Hence, the surface should be balance and smooth for all games.  Other than this the equipment, like ladders swings, monkey bars etc, must have standard height. For the school age children not more than 8 feet and for Pre school kids not more than 6 feet high. 

Safety and Security of kids:

Safety of kids is necessary. There should be proper partition for each age group part and particularly the area that is bounded for special kids. So, that the younger and elder kids do not get mixed. Other than this there should be a ground supervisor, who can interfere when the play gets dangerous. 

The National Program for Play Ground Safety provides a kit for play ground supervisor. It includes manual and video   -->

Safety Tips for Kids at Play Ground

image source: http://www.sxc.hu/

Outdoor activity is an important part of child growth and development. Because exercise and supports are important for the physical growth and strength.Usually, kids are taken to the playgrounds for exercise and supports. And there are some things that can cause problems for kids.  According to a guess, round about 200,000 kids are treated in hospitals for the play ground injuries. My own niece got hurt in the playground,  4 years ago. She had a deep wound exact at her eyebrow and could not appear in exams. Therefore, some safety measures should be taken before let the kids at playgrounds.

Safety Tips at Playgrounds:

• First of all play ground should be divided into three parts. One part for infants and toddlers. Second, for small children, from 2-6 years. and third one for older kids. And there should be very clear guide lines for each part. So that the kids may not get confused.
• The surface and structure of playground be appropriate for kids. There should not be more slippery or  hard places. there should be no dangerous materials like broken glass or twisted metal, in the play ground.
• The presence of some adult and mature person in the kid's play ground is necessary, for the proper supervision of kids.
• The kids should be properly trained about the use and management of gaming equipment. Such as use of helmets, pads and other things. Particularly, the younger kids are mostly get injured by the swings. Suppose, a child has a cap on his head, and he is on swing. He feels that his cap is about to fall from his head, he would leave the swing rope to keep the cap at his head. That may make him unbalance and he falls from the swing. Now you can imagine the condition of that child. Now it is the responsibility of older people to make their kids  aware of preferences at the play ground.
• The equipment should be properly checked by someone. The broken elements should be removed immediately. And it should also be kept in view that the game or the things which is going to be used by kids, if it suits them according to their age and physic.

Universal Children Day (20 Nov)

Background:

--> The Children day is celebrated globally on 20, Nov. In 1953, It was first celebrated by International Union of Children Welfare in Geneva. Then in the coming year it was celebrated by United Nations, on 20th Nov. 20, Nov is the day when United Nations General Assembly aimed the declaration of the rights of children.  And on same day The convention on the Rights of Child was sign. Therefore, till now, 20, Nov is celebrated as the International Children Day.

Universal Children's Day:

Universally Children's day is celebrated on 20, Nov. But different countries celebrate children day at different dates. Such as in central African states  Children's day is celebrated on 25 Dec.  In the same way in China and Azerbaijan it is celebrated on 1 June and in Argentina it is celebrated on second Sunday of August. In short people in different countries celebrate this event on different dates and days.

But it is not the matter, when it is going to be celebrated, the matter is its importance. Why is it celebrated?  It shows How much a nation is civilized? and How much it conceders its next generations? Because the children are the future of the world and world is that, what we make it.

Anyhow, this day is celebrated for the children and their rights. The children have the right to live peacefully. In developed countries, apparently, children are safe and sound and have every thing they need. But they have the problems also. Most of the kids there suffer from loneliness and lack of attention by parents, as they spent their childhood in nurseries and boardings. Excessive use of alcohol in society cause a trouble of alcoholic abuse. Although most of the people are sensible and take care of their kids while taking drugs. But some are careless about the affects on children.
In under developed countries, the children's condition is more verse, as most of them are deprived of their primary needs. Many kids are deprived of a typical childhood because of poverty and want. They have to labour for their family and their own living. Hence, child labour is common there. Kids work in auto workshops, on shop and hotels and many other places.
In short I want to say that exploitation of kid's right should be condemned strictly.Because these children are our future.

Popular Nursery Rhymes for Little Kids.

This poem is published in 1744,  for first time. And in nineteenth century it composed as a song for kids.
It is also said that it is satire on the export tax on cotton industry  that was implemented by the King Edward in the early thirteenth century.

Another view about its historical concept suggests that it refers to the tenure to of Edward II who encouraged the Flemish weavers and dyers to improve the quality of their production, because the best cotton in Europe was produced in London at that time.     

____________________________________________________________________________

"Ring a Ring a Roses" is a kid's gaming song that they sing during a game in which they make a ring by keeping hands.

But it is also said that it may have a connection to the historical plague in London in 1665. A rosy  red round  rash was a symptom of that fatal disease. And traditionally people kept their pockets full of posies and herbs, for, they think its reason was bad smell.

The use of "Ashes Ashes" make a guess to the great fire in which all disease carrier rat were burned.
In latest version of this poem "A tissue A tissue" is used in the Place of "Ashes Ashes." A tissue A tissue is gesture towards the sneezing that was another symptom for this disease.
