Kids all learn at various levels and in different ways. With so many kids using their own learning methods, it can make tutoring that more complex. When someone wants to know how to tutor a child in math, they will first need to assess the person's learning ability and style. When it becomes clear how the student figures out their math, then a program can be designed for them in mind.When an adult or older child first sits down with a student,...more
FISHING WITH KIDS Have you ever fished with your kids? It is a fabulous way to get close to them and find out about their interests and what excites them as they do something with Mom or Dad or Uncle. When you consider fishing with your kids, please go after fish that are plentiful and bite on your bait frequently. I have had the fun of fishing with each of my three kids and also fishing with many of my grandkids. And, you know what? They...more
Online Addictions and Child Accountability Current AlternativesThere are really two issues: Parents trying to protect their children, and children and adults already suffering from online addictions.Blocking and Monitoring SoftwareHigh-tech alternatives include blocking software and monitoring software. Unfortunately, blocking software does not work all of the time. Determined "addicts" can use a different computer or mobile device, and adults who know the passwords can disable them secretively to get their fix and then re-enable them later.Popular monitoring software can go too far. It is often too intrusive and can often slow down your computer. It can also send an accountability partner too much information (keystrokes to your passwords, your personal journal entries, copies of e-mails, etc.), and it is also missing key features from a therapist standpoint—such as instant text messaging, notification when disabled, etc.In fact, most existing software does not work as well as it should since it is not "relationship based" and it doesn't solve the problem from the inside out (a proven approach to solve addictions).So what do we do about it?SolutionYou may want to...more

Should You Buy A Crib That Grows With Your Child? Babies grow quickly and usually are out of a crib around age 2, but really aren't big enough for a big bed. Maybe you buy a toddler bed, which might last until 5 years of age. Then you buy a regular bed which hopefully will make it for a while. But still, you've bought 3 beds in 5 years and they are not cheap. In addition, some children do not want to give up the crib; they feel secure and comfortable in their bed. Manufacturers understand this and now beds are available that go from crib, to toddler bed, to full size bed. In beds that grow with your child, the crib becomes a toddler bed by removing one side, leaving three sides intact. The mattress is at the lowest level so the toddler can get in and out of the bed easily. This helps transition your child to a bed with no sides while also allowing him or her to stay where it is most secure. Later, the sides of the crib are used as head and foot boards for a full sized bed when your child is ready. Removable side rails may be necessary depending on your child. This bed can take your child all the way to young adulthood.Convertible cribs often cost more than a regular...more
