How many kids out there want music instrument as a gift for this holiday season or for their special day? Many, I believe. With the endless bands that coming out every year and good music that playing all the times, number of kids who wants to be a musician are increasing.
To waste our kid's music talent is something that we simply can not do, but to buy a real music instrument for a six-years-old seems like too much.
Worry not, WowWee Paper Jamz Instant Rock Star Guitars (Series 1) Complete Set of 6 could be and answer to your prayer.
With Paper Jamz guitar, children can explore their music talent and creativity to the max. As the name suggested, WowWee guitars are made of paper (it's more like a cardboard I believe) and child can play them by simply touching the paper surface.
Active Graphics Technology (which allows paper to be embedded by circuit) made this playful technology possible. As simple as that, kids can play the music like a real pro, sure a way to boost their self confidence and music sense.
Paper Jamz guitar is completed with three modes for jamming. Perfect Play mode, the kids can play three perfect included hit songs. Rhythm mode, to control the rhythm for the songs and the best of all is Freestyle mode that would let the children play real chords and maybe create their own songs.
Even when the kids have no musical ability, they still are able to enjoy playing Paper Jamz Guitar, even learn a song or two.
I never guess that something made of paper could be this good.
And a little warning tough, when you watch out for the kids when they play this Guitar after you give it to them, you might tempted to get one of these for yourself.

Essential Technology for Working From Home
Some people work from the comfort of their own home every day of the week, while others only have to work from home due to certain circumstances, such as bad weather, family commitments or illness.
Whether you fall into the first or the second category, you'll need certain gadgets to make working at home the same as working in the office.
So if you're looking for important office items, here are a few suggestions to make your life a lot easier. Home Computer Whether it's a Mac or a PC, you'll need to have a home computer that's up to date with all the latest software, such as Word and Excel, and most importantly, a reliable and fast internet connection.
This will ensure that you'll be able to send and receive emails, documents and files to your colleagues at the office quickly.
Telephone Chances are, if you have an internet connection, you'll have a phone line which can be used to keep in touch with your colleagues.
But if you need to speak to more than one person at one time, such as when you can't come in for an important meeting, then a conference call system will allow you to talk to more than one person at once, no matter where they are.
Printer/Scanner Sometimes you'll need to print out important documents and correspondence for your own records, so it's a good idea to have a combined printer and scanner in your home office, which will print out and make electronic copies of papers that you can then send back to your work, This is particularly useful for documents that require a signature and need to be kept on file.

Chore Charts That Help Children Complete Their Daily Chores
Learning how to develop a system that will make your kids want to do chores can be extremely difficult.
Let's be honest, chores are not the most fun activity even for adults, so children obviously will not be jumping for joy at the sound of chores unless you are willing to be creative in your approach.
There are several different ways that you can make your children see the benefits of chores in their life.
One of the ways you can do this is by creating a chart chore.
By creating this chart chore your children will easily be able to see their progress and will be more likely to complete their chores over a long period of time.
A chart chore is basically just a simple chart that you can make at home. It should include the days of the week, the child or children's names, and the different chores they are required to do depending on the day.
You can create this chart by buying a simple piece of poster board at your local grocery store. Next take markers and divide the paper into the appropriate sections.
If you want, feel free to get creative with the design of the poster board.
Children love bright colors and by creating something fun that children love, they will be more apt to actually pay attention to the poster board and show interest in it.
Once you create a chart chore you need to explain the overall procedure to your children.
This could take a little bit of time to get your children to understand the concept, so be sure that you are being as patient as possible. Explain to your children that the chart chore will track their progress on their chore.
Every day that they complete a chore, they can go ahead and either check off the appropriate box, or put a sticker on the completion box.
Stickers can be fun because it makes the poster board have character and children usually really like this aspect of a chart chore. One of the best things that you can explain to your children is the overall experience of learning to work and how it will benefit them in their future careers and in school.
Work helps your children know diligence and learn vital lessons that are essential to be successful in the real world.
A chart chore can be a great way to incorporate chores into your regular household routines.

Tips on Putting Your Child to Bed
Every child is different and their needs and whims vary when it is time to go to bed. They always have a different excuse not to go to bed and they will change strategy in order to stay up a little longer.
Here are some tips and things you can do to make it easier on yourself and them: The crier- Many start crying before you even mention bedtime.
Others will be put in bed and then they will start crying painfully.
Try the following approaches, they work: * At least one hour before bedtime, turn off some lights, put away toys and start slowing things down in the house.
Try to create a quiet peaceful environment so your child starts winding down and relaxes.
If he believes everybody is going to be d he will cooperate more. * When you put him to bed, fuzz around him a little, tuck him in, adjust the pillow and kiss him good night. * A white noise machine or relaxing CD will also help him go to sleep faster.
The music and sounds will also hide the noises produced by activity in the rest of the house.
* They are very sneaky.
When he cries ignore him as long as possible.
If you come to him immediately he will have the key to make you come to him every time. Let the baby cry, it will not hurt him * When you finally come into the room, do not pick him out of the bed. Just talk to him and touch him, let him know you are there with him but that he is staying in the bed. The tantrum thrower- If you have one of those babies that go crazy when you try to put them to sleep, he cries, screams and throws a tantrum, here is what you should do: * Do not allow any wild activities at least one hour before bed, do not let him run or play around. Watching a movie, reading a book or playing with a puzzle are fine activities, no horse play or running around. * A bed time ritual must be established and it must be followed every day. This will let him know ahead of time he is going to bed. First the pajamas, brush teeth, read a story or sing a song these are good signs for him that it is time to sleep.
After this you can tuck him in and say your prayers, a good night kiss and that is it. * Once the child is in the room, do not let him leave, potty and a drink of water should be part of the ritual so he does not have an excuse to leave the room or his bed.
* If he starts crying and has a meltdown, do not talk to him.
Just make him get into the bed and leave. Tantrums are techniques and tests to see how far you are willing to let him go, if you stay and talk he will have won.
Just put him back into the bed and leave. * If he does not go to sleep within a few minutes, it is possible that he is sleeping too much during the day. Try changing his day routine and adjusting his resting periods so he is tired when it is bedtime * Do not lay in bed with him for any reason.
It may happen that you fall asleep and he doesn't.
A child must learn from early age to sleep alone and feel safe in his bed.
Be firm and stick to the bedtime routine you have set.
Children can be sneaky and they will always find something new with which to stall going to bed.
It will be a constant tug-of-war between you for as long time so be ready. Above all do not spank him or yell, keep calm because if you hurt them then there is a good chance you'll feel sorry later on.
