Giant Slip 'n' Slide</h2>
Make your own slip 'n' slide by laying out a tarp, spraying it down
with water, then letting the hose continue to run on top of the slide.
Take turns running across your lawn, then sliding across the tarp for a
slippery, exciting game.<br />
<h2>
<img align="left" alt="2" height="44" src="http://cdn.sheknows.com/articles/2011/03/numbers/pins/number_2.png" style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-top: -7px;" width="44" /><img alt="Flashlight" height="129" src="http://cdn.sheknows.com/articles/2011/04/flashlight.jpg" style="float: right; margin-bottom: 9px; margin-left: 30px; margin-top: 9px;" width="173" />Flashlight Tag</h2>
Best played after the sun goes down, flashlight tag is the perfect <a href="http://realmomsguide.sheknows.com/tag/outdoor-activities/" id="yui_3_5_0_2_1365485379178_10">outdoor game</a>
for late-night birthday or block parties. One player is designated "it"
and is given a flashlight. The other players hide. When "it" finds a
hidden player, he shines the light on the hider and the hider then
becomes "it." The original "it" then hides, and the game continues.<br />
<h2 id="yui_3_5_0_4_1365485379178_353">
<img align="left" alt="3" height="44" src="http://cdn.sheknows.com/articles/2011/03/numbers/pins/number_3.png" style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-top: -7px;" width="44" />Jump Rope Challenge</h2>
Give each player a plastic cup filled with water. Start spinning a
large jump rope. One at a time, each child must attempt to enter the
rope and jump three times, all while spilling as little water as
possible. The child with the most water left in his cup wins the game.<br />
<h2>
<img align="left" alt="4" height="44" src="http://cdn.sheknows.com/articles/2011/03/numbers/pins/number_4.png" style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-top: -7px;" width="44" />Hole in the Bucket</h2>
Fill up a large trashcan with water and place two empty trashcans
about 40 feet away. Split kids into two teams and give each team an
empty milk carton with 10 to 12 holes in the bottom. When you say "go,"
the first player from each team fills her carton with water, then places
it on her head while she walks or runs to her team's empty trashcan.
She empties the remaining water into the trashcan, then runs back,
passing the carton to the next player. The first team to fill its
trashcan with water wins the game.<br />
<h2>
<img align="left" alt="5" height="44" src="http://cdn.sheknows.com/articles/2011/03/numbers/pins/number_5.png" style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-top: -7px;" width="44" />Sticks & Stones</h2>
If you have a sizable group of kids, playing sticks and stones will
make them laugh while also tiring them out. Split the kids into two
teams -- the sticks and the stones. Line them up facing one another.
Designate an area roughly 30 feet behind each team as that teams' safe
zone. To start the game, yell out "sticks" or "stones." The team you
call on must begin chasing the opposing team, which begins racing toward
its safe zone. Any tagged players must switch teams, and the two new
teams line up to play again. The team to bring all the players to its
side wins the game.<br />
<h2>
<img align="left" alt="6" height="44" src="http://cdn.sheknows.com/articles/2011/03/numbers/pins/number_6.png" style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-top: -7px;" width="44" />Shoebox Relays</h2>
<img alt="Shoebox" height="117" src="http://cdn.sheknows.com/articles/2011/04/shoebox.jpg" style="float: right; margin-bottom: 9px; margin-left: 30px; margin-top: 9px;" width="172" /><br />
Split the kids into two teams. Each team gets two shoeboxes. Tape the
lids onto the shoe boxes and cut an "I" shape into the top of the box,
with a four-inch slit and two one-inch slits. Have the first player from
each team slip her feet into the shoeboxes. When you say "go" the
players wearing the shoeboxes have to run from the starting line to a
designated spot, then back again. Players pass the shoeboxes to their
waiting teammates, and the relay continues until all the players have
participated and a winning team is crowned.<br />
<h2>
<img align="left" alt="6" height="44" src="http://cdn.sheknows.com/articles/2011/03/numbers/pins/number_7.png" style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-top: -7px;" width="44" />Blind Man's Walk</h2>
Set up a simple <a href="http://realitytvmagazine.sheknows.com/2008/05/23/wipeout-to-feature-wild-obstacle-course/" id="yui_3_5_0_2_1365485379178_12">obstacle course</a>
in your yard and let all the kids examine the course. One at a time,
blindfold the kids and let them work their way through the obstacle
course. The child to make it through the fastest wins the game.<br />
<h2>
<img align="left" alt="8" height="44" src="http://cdn.sheknows.com/articles/2011/03/numbers/pins/number_8.png" style="float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-top: -7px;" width="44" />500</h2>
If your <a href="http://realmomsguide.sheknows.com/tag/kids-sports/" id="yui_3_5_0_2_1365485379178_14">kids love sports</a>
and want to play catch with a twist, introduce them to the game of 500.
Give one child a football and have him stand about 20 feet in front of
the remaining children. The child with the ball throws it up into the
air toward the waiting players while calling out a number between 50 and
500. The player to catch the ball earns the number of points called,
but if she drops the ball, she loses those points. The first player to
accumulate 500 points becomes the next thrower.<br />
<br />
<br /><h3>
Backyard bowling</h3>
Bowling is always fun, but who wants to be cooped up in a bowling
alley when it’s gorgeous outside? Bowl right in your backyard for a fun
time with your family. Pick up an outdoor bowling set at most stores
where toys are sold or easily make your own. Collect 10 2-liter bottles
and use them for your pins. Use any ball you have (basketballs work
great) as your bowling ball. Put a few inches of water at the bottom of
each bottle for weight. If you want to get fancy, make a family project
out of painting the bottles, either to resemble actual bowling pins or
with any design you like.<br />

<h3>
Sprinkler dash</h3>
Set up several sprinklers across the yard, and have one person try to
run across the yard without getting hit with water. Let players who
aren’t the runner operate the sprinklers, turning them off and on, while
the runner tries to surprise them with their direction. The winner is
the person who can go the longest without getting wet.<br />
<h3>
Flashlight tag</h3>
It’s always fun and exciting for kids to play outside when it’s dark.
Indulge them with a game of flashlight tag. One person is designated as
"It" and given a flashlight. "It" then closes his eyes and counts to a
predetermined number while everyone else hides. Once he arrives at the
number, "It" takes off in search of everyone else and tries to shine the
flashlight on anyone he finds. The first person to find themselves in
the beam of the flashlight becomes the next "It."<br />

<h3>
Blind obstacle course</h3>
Set up several large objects across your yard. Anything works -- try
patio furniture, lawn chairs, big buckets, wheelbarrows, outside toys
and anything else you can find. Once everything is scattered, bring
everyone outside to study the obstacle course you created. One by one,
blindfold each player and let them try to cross the yard without bumping
into an obstacle. The player to get the farthest is the winner.<br />
<h3>
Water Limbo</h3>
Everyone knows how to play Limbo. This is the same game, but with
water instead of a Limbo stick. Play some fun music and get everyone
dancing. Then have one player (an adult would be best) hold a water
hose. Adjust the spray so you have a straight stream, and hold it at
about shoulder-level for most of the players. Keep getting lower and
lower, until the last dry player remains. The game probably won’t last
very long on a hot day, because you’ll find many of the players are
hitting the water on purpose to cool off.Carlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04330968825280852127noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773946742298581498.post-78228748166217357322013-03-28T22:30:00.002-07:002013-03-28T22:30:45.895-07:00Dancing Oobleck<h1 class="entry-title">
Dancing Oobleck</h1>
Oobleck is a great, and kids LOVE it. My kids are no different.
If you have never made it before Oobleck is a mixture of cornstarch and
water. When played with fast it acts like a solid and when allowed to
relax it acts like a liquid. When we saw a few youtube videos that
involved Dancing Oobleck, we decided we needed to take our play to the
next level. You will need to make the Dancing Oobleck a bit thicker
than usual. We used about 2 cups of corn starch and 1 cup of water.<br />

Once your recipe is ready let the kids play for a bit while you set
up the next step. You will need a subwoofer, a thin metal cookie sheet,
a MP3 of an audio test tone and food coloring. Place the cookie sheet
onto the speaker of the sub, and pour in the Oobleck. You can download
different test tones and play to see what works best for you. We used
40 Hz, 50 Hz, and 63 Hz, and found that we needed to turn the volume way
up. We tried a number of different frequencies but these three seemed
to work the best. We did a search for subwoofer test MP3. There are a
number of different sites that you can use. Before you play the MP3 you
will need to place your fingers on the edge of the cookie sheet with
gentle pressure. It took a bit of playing to see what worked the best,
but the results were amazing.<br />

After we were all done I let the kids play
with the colored Oobleck. They loved it, but a word of caution if
stained colored fingers are not your thing. We giggled at the kids as
they tried to wash the color off. I’m sure they will be sporting grey
blue hands for a few days.</div>

Easter is my very favorite holiday. It
celebrates the single most important event of all time, bringing with it
the spring season. It is here in just a few days, so get busy on those
eggs, baskets and decorations. This round-up will give you plenty of
inspiration and ideas. Happy Easter!!</div>

Sprouting Seed Activity</h1>
Spring is right around the corner, and I am SO excited! There is
something about new life sprouting up that makes me really happy. While
visiting my parents, they engaged the kids in a simple sprouting seed
activity. My mom loves to garden, so this was the perfect project to
take on while visiting her.<br />

I love her seed stash. She enjoys saving seeds and has a number of
different varieties of seeds she has collected over the years.<br />

We created simple mini greenhouses with recycled tins, damp paper
towels and a plastic bag. Lay a damp paper towel on the bottom of your
container and gently “plant” your seeds. We planted a variety of seeds
in each container so we carefully mapped out where each seed was to
refer to later. Everyone plants in their PJ’s right:)<br />

<span class="xc_pin" style="display: block; left: 433px;">
</span>
</span></a><br />
Once everything was planted in our greenhouses, we each
made predictions on which seed would be the first to sprout. It was fun
listening to the kids make predictions. Two of the kids were convinced
that the Oak Trees would be first:)<br />

We were amazed that by the next evening the cucumbers, broccoli and
scarlet runner beans had already started sprouting. Who knew that it
could happen that quickly! The kids loved peeking in to see what was
happening to the seeds. The seeds that had not sprouted were starting
to swell getting ready to sprout. We talked about germination and each
type of seed will have a different germination period.<br />

A few days later, the trays were exploded
with sprouted seeds and plants. We were all intrigued by the roots,
they were everywhere. It was also fun to see the leaves. No soil,
and they still were growing.</div>

I’m sure the plants would not last long growing like this, but it was
a great teaching moment to show the kids how plants roots grow. We
ended up having to fly home before we could plant the seeds in soil, so
we left that job up to mom. Thanks for the fun project mom, the kids
loved it! Now I need to get my seeds started, maybe after Easter.<br />

Cleaning with Shaving Cream</h1>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Our poor IKEA art trays were in need of a
major cleaning. They were covered with paint, glue, glitter, markers
and most any other art medium you can think of. I have the cleaning
bug, which does not visit our house often so I am taking full advantage
of it! You are going to love this simple <strong>Cleaning with Shaving Cream</strong> trick.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
A while ago, my sister-in-law taught me
this simple trick. Shaving cream is a fun medium to play with. It is a
great sensory medium, plus it has the added bonus of cleaning power.
Love that!</div>

The kiddos had fun smearing, building
towers and drawing pictures. I thought about making some cute marbled
artwork, but we will save that for another day since the main goal today
was to clean.</div>

We used a can of shaving cream that has
been in the back of our cupboard for a long time. However, if I was
purchasing a new can I would buy a sent free variety. The smell can be
quiet strong. Annika asked me if it was OK that she smelled like
Grandpa Bruce. So funny!</div>

The kids enjoyed playing numerous games of tic-tac-toe. The loved “erasing” each game.</div>

Once they tired of drawing, I gave the
kiddos some scrub brushes to get the last of the grime off the trays.
It worked like a charm. With a simple rinse, the trays are now
perfectly clean and ready for the next creative project.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a cake baking dish to contain the fizz/bubbling and it worked well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I did use a large tray underneath just in case but we didn't need it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I set up a cup with baking powder and 1 cup with vinegar and the Lil
Divas were free to sprinkle and pour as they wanted. As you san see,
their motto is "more is better!" :)</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbRtzoi113jxGuhK5qWkTJuG7IXJRtU56Nd5659h0vE1_FMOHlYLysDOYnUtrjvFxx0T5LUsq8mDL4nwDtZXsHdA2saQ7KpV3vc46DuUovoUJvmgRsVDLPSVdgzbCbZRktB2gKS-1RQKk/s1600/Collages104.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbRtzoi113jxGuhK5qWkTJuG7IXJRtU56Nd5659h0vE1_FMOHlYLysDOYnUtrjvFxx0T5LUsq8mDL4nwDtZXsHdA2saQ7KpV3vc46DuUovoUJvmgRsVDLPSVdgzbCbZRktB2gKS-1RQKk/s400/Collages104.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After lots and lots of baking soda and vinegar the Bunny Peeps were left
pretty much intact. The only thing the Lil Divas noted was that the
colorless vinegar had turned yellow. So, we know some color came off the
Peeps but they looked pretty good. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiea2LaSSdC-UmxyN55Rpa7318COavANvny7kFz6ufYY8zAEjuxp-bjw9qKf8mfNltrrlkDezNRdvQmLpSf7sLxNK5LE49iqX4gLxblgJ6DWFDbXq_Aof3SrPWGhGvdTuESKIocFnPATrk/s1600/Collages105.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiea2LaSSdC-UmxyN55Rpa7318COavANvny7kFz6ufYY8zAEjuxp-bjw9qKf8mfNltrrlkDezNRdvQmLpSf7sLxNK5LE49iqX4gLxblgJ6DWFDbXq_Aof3SrPWGhGvdTuESKIocFnPATrk/s400/Collages105.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then, the Oldest Diva asked if she could have some food coloring. I know she was thinking of our fun <a href="http://www.momto2poshlildivas.com/2012/01/fizz-bubble-pop-experimenting-with.html"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">baking soda & vinegar experiment</span></b></a> where I surprised them by adding some hidden food coloring.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPYiN61rlsQldEJOUr86mpdNpH2hmyHQYdDvDbFaxmK1deM2I4Udc9eMVkUmeM9hzK81mSs88ILaeOufHgmMokSTHNDDRTiO7EoIr3x0N-32Co4IdDJDgqgM_nXVRjJC2GKhJ-L8YrjEA/s1600/Collages106.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="250" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPYiN61rlsQldEJOUr86mpdNpH2hmyHQYdDvDbFaxmK1deM2I4Udc9eMVkUmeM9hzK81mSs88ILaeOufHgmMokSTHNDDRTiO7EoIr3x0N-32Co4IdDJDgqgM_nXVRjJC2GKhJ-L8YrjEA/s400/Collages106.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The Lil Divas added food coloring directly onto the Bunny Peeps and then
added in the baking soda and vinegar. It was a color explosion which
was lots of fun to watch. She repeated it a few times and then I asked
her to look over the bunny and see if it had been affected. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The Bunny Peeps had some hints of food color here and there but you can
see they were still pretty yellow. They felt squishy to the touch but
were still pretty solid. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Below, you can see a comparison of an unexperimented on Peep with some
from the experiment. Not much of a difference in size or appearance
considering the onslaught of baking soda, vinegar and food coloring.
Resilient little bunnies! Not sure I can ever look at these guys the
same anymore. After seeing how resilient how they are, I just keep
imaging them sitting in the Lil Divas bellies. :) </div>

Now that the kids are almost on summer break it’s time to start planning
those daily activities. My biggest predicament is trying to find
activities that I don’t feel are completely mindless (gotta keep those
synapses firing, right?). What better activity to do with them than a
fun science experiment? Learn all about the crystallization process with
geodes and test the power of nature by walking on eggshells. Your
afternoons are guaranteed to be tons of fun and educational with these

Sometimes it's hard to come up with sensory play for babies, but I am so excited about this project!! I saw <a href="http://www.teachpreschool.org/2011/08/bright-and-colorful-sensory-bags-for-preschool/" target="_blank">this post</a> for
sensory bags quite awhile ago and so wanted to do it. I just couldn't
quite think of a way to modify for the babe. I was afraid as is, he
would for sure be able to get the plastic bags open quickly. Then I saw <a href="http://themommiesmademedoit.blogspot.com/2012/03/giant-squishy-sensory-bag.html?showComment=1332802088464#c4027205147774421928" target="_blank">this post</a> from <a href="http://themommiesmademedoit.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">The Mommies Made Me Do It</a>. Hmmm....I had my answer...duct tape!</div>

It couldn't be easier. All I used was a ziplock bag (I used a freezer
bag thinking the material might be a little sturdier than a non-freezer
plastic bag), some hair gel, duct tape, and a few things to put in the
bag. I found these cute little frogs at the dollar spot at target. They
were perfect! At first that's all I was going to put in it but I thought
why stop there! I added a few buttons, some beads, silly bands, and a
couple of flat marbles. You could use pretty much anything that won't
poke a hole in the bag.<br />
<br />

Fill the bag with hair gel. I happened to find cheap hair gel that was
already colored, had I not, I would have just added food coloring to
regular hair gel. Then, throw in some fun things for baby to look at and
squish around in the gel. Squeeze out as much air as you can when you
seal the bag. I ran duct tape around all the edges to reinforce it. The
duct tape added a little color and made it look kinda cool too (bonus)
That's it! You are good to go!<br />

At first Mr. C wasn't sure what to do with it. He would just look at it
and smile. (at least he thought it was pretty). Eventually he did get
to squishing it around a bit. He especially liked it when I held the
bag up so the light would shine through. I'm thinking the next time I
get it out I may tape it on our sliding glass doors so he can look at it
and explore that way. Believe it or not, much to my surprise, he didn't
try to put this one in his mouth.</div>

This is by no means limited to the baby set. I think it would be well
suited for a lot of ages. My older son was even intrigued with how I
made it, what I put in it etc. If you have a large age gap between kids
like we do, sometimes its fun to get the the older ones involved in
making these types of things for the younger ones. It gives the older
kids a project and everyone gets to participate. (I'm a big fan of older
kids with projects).<br />
<br />
I will definitely be repeating this one as the munchkin man gets older.
I'd also like to try making this in a smaller size. I think it would be
easier for him to pick up and manipulate. With the hair gel in the
gallon size bag it was a bit heavy for him so he was more limited to
playing with it like a mat. For that reason I think it would have been
great when he was younger and needed something to hold his interest
during tummy time. Wish I had thought of it then, he hated tummy time.<br />

Microwave Kool Aid Play Dough
</h3>
<div class="post-header">
</div>
We made play dough and love this recipe from Cassie's preschool! It says
you can add a scent, but we used unsweetened kool aid for the scent and
color of the play dough. I like the idea that it can be made using the
microwave too. We don't drink a whole lot of kool aid here, but have
used it for homemade popsicles. Some of the flavors add a nice scent to
the play dough too. I don't know if C was fond of all the scents, but it
was a fun way to mix up the recipe a bit. <br />

<div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is the recipe:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(we divided it in half to make more colors)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 Cups Flour</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 Cup Salt</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 Tablespoons Oil</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4 teaspoons Cream of Tartar</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 Cups Water</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Food coloring/Scent (We used unsweetened kool aid)</div>
<br />
Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine the oil and water in a
microwave safe bowl until it is almost boiling. Add the food coloring.
(we did not add food coloring for color--- <b>we added the kool aid</b> <b>powder with the dry ingredients</b>)
Mix the liquid and the dry ingredients together. Once the mixture has
cooled, knead the dough until it becomes smooth and soft.<br />
<br />
Here are the flavors/colors of kool aid that we use for our kool aid play dough: <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Cherry</span>, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: orange;">Orange</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ffd966;">Lemonade</span>, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6aa84f;">Lemon-Lime</span>, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">Ice-Blue Raspberry Lemonade</span>, and <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7;">Grape. </span>***For
the Lemonade color we use added a little yellow food coloring because
it was so light. Grape is a little dark, but the scent is good.<br />

Do you ever feel like the only words that come out of your mouth are
direct orders? “Empty the trash, be nice to your sister, quit jumping on
the couch!!!” A big part of preventing bad behavior, however, is
encouraging the good behavior when you see it.
<br />
And a quick “good job” doesn’t cut it—in fact, phrases like “good
boy,” “you’re so smart!” and “you’re the best on your team!” are
anything but encouraging. Instead of focusing on positive internal
qualities, they put the emphasis on outward praise, which does nothing
to promote good behavior in the future. <br />
True encouragement focuses on the deed, not the doer. It motivates a
child from the inside to demonstrate similar positive behavior in the
future, and to value things like hard work, improvement, teamwork and
perseverance.<br />
<span id="more-14986"></span><br />
Encouragement can be as simple as, “Thanks for your help!” or “You
really worked hard!” Here are a few more examples to try around your
house:<br />
Thank you for your help!<br />
You should be proud of yourself!<br />
Look at your improvement!<br />
That “A” reflects a lot of hard work!<br />
You worked really hard to get this room clean!<br />
Thanks for helping set the table, that made a big difference.<br />
I noticed you were really patient with your little brother.<br />
What do you think about it?<br />
You seem to really enjoy science.<br />
Your hard work paid off!<br />
That’s a tough one, but you’ll figure it out.<br />
Look how far you’ve come!<br />
I trust your judgment.<br />
The time you’re putting into your homework is really paying off.<br />
I love being with you.<br />
You really put a smile on her face with your kind words!<br />
That’s coming along nicely!<br />
You really worked it out!<br />
That’s a very good observation.<br />
Thank you for your cooperation.<br />
I see a very thorough job!<br />
That’s what we call perseverance!<br />
I can tell you really care.<br />
You make it look easy!<br />
You’ve really got the hang of it!<br />
I can tell you spent a lot of time thinking this through.<br />
I really feel like a team when we work like this!<br />
The best part about using encouragement with your kids is the glow of
happiness you’ll see on their faces. After all, “Your hard work is
really paying off!” says you noticed their work, while, “You’re so
smart,” might be hard to live up to next time. Try a little
encouragement with your kids, and watch their behavior—and
effort—improve. <br />

We call these “Soap Clouds.” Where are all of our chemical
engineers? I need to know why every awesome science project involving
soap, hinges on the use of <em>Ivory</em> soap. Thoughts? Are there
magical ingredients in there? I’ve always wondered that. I bet whoever
came up with the original recipe never expected that so many science
experiments would ensue with its use! I think the same thing about
Elmer’s glue. Anyway, grab a bar of Ivory soap-yes, only Ivory! It’s
cheap, but don’t worry, you can even use it as soap when we’re done here
so we’re not being wasteful. So you don’t need to write us lengthy
emails about being earth-hating-soap-haters.<br />
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7721" height="431" src="http://www.ourbestbites.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Ivory-Soap.jpg" title="Ivory Soap" width="600" /><br />
Place a piece of waxed paper, parchment, plastic wrap, or paper towel
in your microwave. Just don’t use foil, or we’ll have issues on our
hands that are much bigger than your next burrito tasting slightly like
a fresh mountain spring. This really doesn’t make a mess, so don’t be
scared.<br />
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7727" height="450" src="http://www.ourbestbites.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/soap-in-microwave.jpg" title="soap in microwave" width="600" />Start
your microwave for a couple of minutes on high power. You don’t need
to let it run that whole length of time, but you can just stop it when
you need to. Want to see what happens?? It’s a little hard to see
through my microwave door, but check it out (and ignore me when I say
you need to turn your microwave turntable off, that’s for if you’re
trying to video this experience:))<br />
Ten bonus points for anyone who can reference my children’s ramblings about “the great devourer.”<br />
I don’t know how it does it- but it starts growing! Sometimes the
“clouds” are seriously HUGE, and other times they are sort of wimpy.
I’ve noticed generally, the fresher the soap (as in the more recent I
have purchased it) the bigger the result. We’ve done this a million
times and my kids still get a kick out of it.<br />
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7722" height="400" src="http://www.ourbestbites.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/kid-in-microwave.jpg" title="kid in microwave" width="600" />It looks like it should be foamy and wet, but it’s not. You can actually pick up the whole big chunk.<br />
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7723" height="400" src="http://www.ourbestbites.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/soap-cloud.jpg" title="soap cloud" width="600" />If
you smash it, it will break into pieces and you’ll end up with soap
dust everywhere, so be careful with little hands who like to smash
things :)<br />
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7728" height="600" src="http://www.ourbestbites.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/holding-soap.jpg" title="holding soap" width="400" /><br />
It’s the weirdest looking thing. I love how it’s different every time.<br />
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7724" height="400" src="http://www.ourbestbites.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/soap-cloud-2.jpg" title="soap cloud 2" width="600" />Now.
You have a giant blob of dried soap fluff and your kids were
entertained for a total of 3.5 minutes. That’s a start! Sometimes I
let my kids just take the whole darn thing in the bath tub and have at
it. It’s one way to make sure they actually get cleaned in there. Or
sometimes I hold it up over them in the tub and let it “snow” by
smashing it and letting it sprinkle down like little snow flakes. Or,
you can let them make their own little soaps. First, put the fluff in a
bowl and let them do what they’ve probably been trying to do already-
smash it to smithereens. It just kind of falls apart, so it’s actually
kind of fun. And if it gets all over your counter, take my advice and
sweep or vacuum it up first, <em>then</em> wipe it down. Otherwise you’ll end up with a big soapy mess.<br />
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7718" height="533" src="http://www.ourbestbites.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/breaking-up-soap.jpg" title="breaking up soap" width="400" /><br />
Then, either in a bowl with a spoon, or with an electric beater, or in a food processor, like I’m using, add warm water, <em>just</em>
until it comes together. Just like pie crust, folks! This is why I
love kitchen crafts. To test it, grab some with your hands and hold it
in your fist. If it holds together in a ball, it’s ready.<br />
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7726" height="450" src="http://www.ourbestbites.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/soap-in-food-processor.jpg" title="soap in food processor" width="600" /><br />
Take the mold-able mixture and let kids press it into cookie
cutters. Make sure kids are old enough to know it’s not food, or they
are likely to attempt to eat it!<br />
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7725" height="400" src="http://www.ourbestbites.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/soap-in-cutters.jpg" title="soap in cutters" width="600" />These
photos below are from a batch I made a while back, (and photographed
with my regular camera) and I let my kids add just a couple of drops of
food coloring to make colored soaps. After the soaps are molded, but
still wet, you can gently push them out of the molds. Let them sit in a
cool, dry place for a few days and soon you will have little soaps to
wash (or play!) with.<br />

Now go have some fun with your own kiddos today! Or, just grab some
soap and have fun in your office break room at lunch. C’mon- you know
you want to.Carlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04330968825280852127noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773946742298581498.post-32367520366151212952012-12-06T22:51:00.001-08:002012-12-06T22:51:59.059-08:007 ways to teach your child to stick up for themselves<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<img alt="Building Character 7 Ways to Teach Children How to Stick Up for Themselves" class="PinImageImg" data-componenttype="MODAL_PIN" src="http://media-cache0.pinterest.com/upload/205195326742726882_7iYyb8Ad_c.jpg" style="height: 251px; width: 284px;" /></h3>
There has been a lot of talk recently about <span style="color: #993300;"><strong>bullying</strong></span>.
Although bullying is very real and difficult for many children,
teaching your child to stand up for themselves or speak up for
themselves is an important skill when faced with bullying or even <span style="color: #993300;"><strong>everyday situations in which they may just not agree</strong></span> with the other person.<br />
Here are some ways to help your child develop the tools necessary to stand up in a situation. It<strong><span style="color: #993300;"> may not be easy</span></strong> for your child, but these may be good places to start.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #993300;"><strong>1. Giving Words</strong></span> <span style="color: black;">–
Many children don’t know the words to use when they disagree or want
out of a situation. Watch a movie or TV show together (or read a book!)
and talk about how the characters handled the situation and words
used. Then talk about other options together.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #993300;"><strong>2. Catch It Early</strong></span>
– Expect your child to have trouble standing up for themselves.
Children aren’t always ready and able at the age of 3 to know how to
handle situations. Talk with them about how to say no, walk away, use
words, and explain their needs to adults. Children need to know how to
talk to adults when they are uncomfortable with a situation as much as
they need to talk to peers.<br />
<span style="color: #993300;"><strong></strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #993300;"><strong>3. Provide an Example</strong></span>
– Give an example of when you successfully (or unsuccessfully) did not
stand up for yourself as a child. Talk about your emotions and
reactions to what happened and that you know it can be difficult or
frustrating. Show real time examples of you standing up for yourself. <span style="color: #993300;"><strong></strong></span><span style="color: #993300;"><strong></strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #993300;"><strong>4. Give Child Decisions</strong></span>
– When children never have the opportunity to make decisions in
situations, they often continue a helpless pattern as teens and adults.
By asking your child to decide about simple things like clothes to
wear, the order to do chores, and how to spend their money on vacation,
you give them the ability and practice to make decisions and explaining
why. By explaining why to adults, they often have to give words and
reasoning that will be helpful later in life when they talk with college
professors and colleagues. <span style="color: #993300;"><strong></strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #993300;"><strong>5. Discourage Peer Worship</strong></span>
– Most parents know what happened to Britney Spears and as sad as her
story was, it can be even more important to think about what happened to
Britney’s young fans along the way. It’s great to watch young children
enjoy shows and friends, but when you see children doing it “only
because Miley Cyrus is doing it,” you may have some issues. Teach your
children that they are just people, too, and talk about the decisions
you see the peer or pop star make. <span style="color: #993300;"><strong></strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #993300;"><strong>6. Teach them to Advocate</strong></span> – Ever since I was young, I was taught that I needed to stand up for myself. I remember in the 6<sup>th</sup>grade,
I went to the principal because I did not want to attend a special
class because I fundamentally disagreed with it. If my 3-year-old wants
a cookie at the bakery at the local store, he needs to ask. If he
doesn’t ask, he doesn’t get a cookie. Teach them early how to advocate
with others and you have just taught a skill for life. <span style="color: #993300;"><strong></strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #993300;"><strong>7. Give Them an Out</strong></span>
– In my family, one rule about going to friend’s houses was known by
all of us. If you ever were uncomfortable or didn’t like what was
happening at the house, just call home and we would be picked up.
Sometimes situations are too overwhelming or challenging for young
children and teens and they need to know they have a safe place to
fall. Teach them the lines, “We don’t do that at our house” or “My mom
won’t let me” so your children know they have an out if nothing works.Carlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04330968825280852127noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773946742298581498.post-3992810570801831292012-12-06T22:48:00.001-08:002012-12-06T22:48:29.405-08:00Fun science experiments to do with your kids!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This was by far the favorite experiment of the day.<br />
<br />
Second experiment: <b>Lava in a Cup</b><br />
<b><br />
</b><br />
<b><i>you will need:</i></b><br />
water<br />
vegetable oil<br />
food coloring<br />
salt<br />
clear container<br />
<br />
This experiment wasn't as exciting for my boys, but it was still fun to watch.<br />
<br />
First you fill up the cup 3/4 the way with water. Then stir in a couple
of drops of food coloring. Then slowly pour in some oil...I am not sure I
used enough and perhaps that is why this experiment wasn't as exciting.
<span style="color: #990000;"><i>Upon re-reading the instructions, I DID NOT add enough oil. You need to add 1/4 cup oil!</i></span><br />
<br />
Once the oil is in, observe how it floats on top of the water.<br />
<br />
Then sprinkle a teaspoon of salt over the top. The salt will immediately
sink because salt is heavier than the oil. The salt with take the oil
as it goes. Then as the salt dissolves the oil will float back to the
top...hence the lava effect.<br />
<br />
Our lava effect wasn't too profound...cool, but not to profound.<br />
<br />

I would try this one again with more oil next time.<br />
<br />
Third experiment: <b>No Hands Balloon Inflate</b><br />
<b><br />
</b><br />
<b><i>you will need:</i></b><br />
glass bottle<br />
balloon<br />
4 TBS white vinegar<br />
4 TBS baking soda<br />
<br />
Add the vinegar to the bottle. Remind your kids it is NOT water or
Sprite and that they DO NOT want to drink it...they might ask.<br />

pumpkin, some baking soda, and vinegar. Food coloring is optional but

When
we need to mix glitter glue into something, I used our Lakeshore
Learning Confetti Glitter Glue. It is a little more liquid-y and the
kids love the confetti in it. <br />

You
will need about 5 oz. of hair gel (this took a bit of trial and error
on my part to figure out the amount). I bought hair gel at Dollar Tree.
Mix the hair gel with glitter glue, glitter, and food coloring.
Carefully move the air bubbles up toward the top of the ziploc bag. Open
the bag and gently force the air out. Use fun patterned duct tape (I
found ours at Michael's) to attach the bag to a piece of foam core cut
to the size of the ziploc bag. I made ours in gallon-size, but you could
use quart-size to make them smaller and more portable (for restaurants
or other places you may need something quiet to entertain your kids). If
you want the back of the gel board to be a dry erase board, just add a
piece of contact paper to the back side of the foam core before taping
the gel bag. This was the part that took me a bit longer than I thought
it would. I had a tough time getting the contact paper on straight with
no bubbles or creases in it.<br />
<br />
EDITED TO ADD: After playing with these for a couple days, I have two
more suggestions to make them even better. I might use two pieces of
foam core next time to make it a bit thicker and stronger. All our
boards have bends in them already which isn't so pretty for the dry
erase side of the board. The ziploc bags also have some crease marks and
slight scratches in them. No holes for the gel to escape yet, but it
made me nervous. So I added another piece of contact paper to the top
for more protection. This step would be easier to do before the board
was finished and squishy with the gel. I would suggest putting a piece
of contact paper on the bag before filling it.</div>

These
can be used to practice writing letters or spelling words. Also great
for just doodling with your finger or for kids that might need a sensory
activity. Just pushing the gel/glitter around can be relaxing. Here are
our boards in action:<br />
