WowWee Paper Jamz That Rock!

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.

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.

How to Recognize and Treat Concussions in Youth Sports

With all the talk about concussions in the NFL, I decide to share my thoughts.
However, I want to talk about kids and concussions or concussions in youth sports.
A concussion is a brain injury that is caused by a sudden blow to the head or to the body.

The blow shakes the brain inside the skull, which temporarily prevents the brain from working normally.

Being a Pop Warner coach, one thing I always worry about are injuries especially during practice.

The reason I worry more at practice is because of the lack of trained medical people at the field.

There has been more than one occasion were a kid was hurt during practice and I was worried that we were not doing the right thing to treat them.

I think every coach should know some type of basic first aid on how to treat common sports injuries.
Symptoms of a concussion If you see a kid with these symptoms they may have a concussion.
The first thing you should notice is the player having problems standing, walking and looking confused.

Then look for: - Headache - Dizziness - Changes to the vision such as blurry vision or double vision - Upset stomach or vomiting - Feeling tired - Moodiness - Confusion - Loss of memory of events before and after the concussion It is important for coaches, to be able to recognize the symptoms of a concussion. A player may only have one symptom, and may not realize they have suffered a concussion and may continue to play or practice.

No kid should be allowed to play or practice while still experiencing symptoms of a concussion.

One reason not to return a player to the field is the chance of second-impact syndrome.

This condition has only been observed in younger athletes. If a kid has a hit to the head, while still recovering from the first concussion, they can have swelling of the brain, which can cause death.
Kids, who have mild concussions, may no longer get headaches or other symptoms of concussions but still have problems processing information. This can last up to seven days after getting a concussion.
What to do if you think a child has a concussion.
The first thing you should do is to test the child's mental state, concentration and memory you can do this by asking the players these simple questions or questions like this: - Tell you the time, place, year.
- Repeat numbers in reverse order.
For example, 3-1-7 should elicit the response 7-1-3.
- Repeat the months of the year in reverse order. For example, January, February, March should elicit the response March, February, and January.

- Name several teams played earlier in the season After that, test the player's physical strength and coordination by looking for symptoms while he or she runs, does some push-ups, sit-ups or deep knee bends, or just has problems standing or walking.
Remember once a player has one concussion, he or she is more likely to get another concussions. Rest is the best way to recover from a concussion Get plenty of sleep and take it easy during the day. Avoid any activities that could lead to another head injury for a few days or even weeks.
Some people feel normal again in a few hours while others have symptoms for weeks or months. It is very important to give yourself time to get better.

Also call your doctor if you don't feel you are getting better or even feeling worse.

The Rebellious, Lost Teenager: Remaining Patient While the Holy Spirit Is at Work in Your Prodigal

John 16:8 tells us that the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin. "And when He comes, He will convict and convince the world and bring demonstration to it about sin and about righteousness (uprightness of heart and right standing with God) and about judgment".

If the Holy Spirit is in you, it shouldn't surprise you that your prodigal may become uncomfortable in your presence. You may be accused of being judgmental without saying a word. Sometimes they are both drawn to you and repelled at the same time.
The Holy Spirit in you beckons to those in darkness, but the sin in their souls can simultaneously pull them away if they are not at the point of repentance.

Know that darkness tries to flee in the presence of light, but we must remember "He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world". (John 4:4) I met Becky in small group a few years ago.

Her own daughter, Lilly had accepted Jesus as a child but was participating in all sorts of deviant behaviors including drugs and crime as a young adult.

Despite the obvious distress this placed on the family, Becky remained committed to walking with Jesus.
She played worship music during the day, prayed aloud over her family and home and never gave up hope that Jesus would lead her prodigal home.

Lilly's visits were far between, and when she did come home, she rarely stayed long.
As a believer, the Holy Spirit still lived in Lilly even though she had given herself over to the enemy.

Each time she ventured home, she found herself in God's very presence, and the Holy Spirit leapt inside her.
But, because of the way she was living her life, feeling the Holy Spirit within her made her uncomfortable because she wasn't ready to deal with her sin. Eventually, she landed herself in jail where she rededicated herself to the Lord. Lilly explained to her mom that while living in sin, each time she walked through the front door, she was under conviction. She could literally feel the spiritual battle roaring within her and it made her physically uncomfortable.

Once she gave her life back to the Lord, she found grace and forgiveness waiting for her both at the cross and in her family.

If your child gave his or life to the Lord many years ago but is now walking the broken road, take courage and believe that God still dwells within this precious lost soul.
Continue to pray that the prodigal would feel the Lord's presence within them, and that God would clearly speak to them, capturing them with love and mercy.
Nothing is too great for our God and He promises us that those with eternal life will never perish. We must continue to intercede for our loved one but the work of the Spirit belongs to God.

Jesus said, "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.

My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. I and the Father are one.

" (John 10:27-29)

Tips on Choosing Children's Shoes

There is no doubt that shoes play an important role in our daily life.
Generally speaking, wearing shoes is for the purpose of protecting our feet from damage. When it goes to children, wearing shoes can help them more in exercises and running.

Thus, a good pair of shoes is essential, particularly for children. Good pair of shoes will help them to move around freely as they love to be active and they play around all the day.

We all know that children's feet are very vulnerable and it grows very fast, so it is critical that parents should pay more attention when you are choosing shoes for your child.

Fit should be the most important aspect when buying your kids shoes.
You'd better know the size of your child's feet exactly. What does it mean? You should know not only the length of your kid's feet, but also the width.

If you think it's inconvenient, you'd better always carry your kids to the shop.

If so, remember to let your child try on the shoes and walk a little before you buy them. If the toe fingers don't touch the front part of the shoes, it may be a suitable size.

The next thing you should pay attention is the brand and style.
You can do a little study about good and reputed brands, what's more, find the feedback from those who have worn them is of great value.
Generally speaking, shoes of reputed brands are of good quality and beautiful design.
However, it may cost more to buy famous brand products.

It's wise to buy the brand's discount shoes, which are more affordable. As for the style of shoes, just follow your child's idea.

You also need to consider the materials of shoes.

The ideal material would be leather, for which is durable and can keep your feet comfortable.

Leather is strong and is not easily vulnerable to wear and tear.

Of cause, there are other materials of shoes.
You can try them if you are sure it will not cause troubles to your child.
In addition, remember to choose shoes that are light in weight.

Heavy shoes will make your child feel uncomfortable after wearing.

Keep these few things in mind when you are choosing shoes for your child next time.

Hope you will find the good pair of shoes that fit your child best, not only in size, but also in material and style.

Parent's Children - Easy Ways to Motivate Young Children to Read - Suggestions 1, 2, and 3

One of the best ways to motivate your child to read is simply to read to him or her, but what if this is not enough? If your child or grandchild seems to require the kind of stimulation that they get when playing video games, get your child involved in a variety of ways with these solutions: Select a book that is available in a variety of formats - such as a one that they can pick up and read, and that can also be viewed as an e-book, or an audio book.
This allows you to say something like, "Joan, let's read this book, and let's download a copy of it on the computer too. Children often feel empowered when they download a book. If you've downloaded an e-book format and also have a physical book, ask your child which version they like better, and why. Listen carefully to their responses and validate their feelings.
For example, if your grandson David says something like, "I really like the e-book version better because it's more fun to turn the pages," responds with something like, "Yes, it is fun to click on the pages and turn them, it's a little like a video game, isn't it?" If your child shows more of an interest in the hard copy of the book, you might say, "Yes, Monica, I like holding a book in my hands too.
There's something really special about being able to touch the pictures.
(adsbygoogle = window.
adsbygoogle || []).
push({}); If the book that you have is also available in an audio book (like a read-along CD or a.

mp3 files) say something like, "What did you like better, reading the book yourself or listening to someone read it?" Once again, it's important to listen to their response and acknowledge that what they have to say has true value. For example if Shannon says something like, "I liked it when the lady read the book," you might ask why.
You may be in for some interesting comments if you probe.

I wrote a book that is accompanied by a read-along CD.
I ask children why they prefer to hear the book read and they have told me answers like, "She sounds like Mommy, and I miss my Mommy, she's in Iraq," and "I listen to the way she says the big words, and that helps me to say them." Whatever they say, it's important to acknowledge their feelings as being correct.

For example you might respond with something like, "Yes, she does sound like Mommy, and it makes me feel like she's here with us too. I like that" Or, you might respond with something like, "Big words can be hard to say, and it is helpful to hear them.

Do you want to point to the words while the lady is reading them?

Different Cheating Methods in Video Games

Cheats are fragments in a game which are widely used in immense video gaming.
It is incorporated in most games as an additional feature for game enthusiasts to further entertain themselves.
Some cheats, like console commands, are integrated as a developer tool to improve and modify the game for a more balanced gameplay.
The following methods will give you an idea on how to cheat successfully to create an advantage over ordinary gameplay.

1. Cheat codes, as a feature hidden inside the video game, are one of the basic methods of cheating.

It is made by the game developers for the users to have an unusual effect that is not part of the usual game mechanics.
Cheat codes are usually activated by pressing buttons, in a controller, in a certain arrangement or by simply writing a code.
Parameters can also be altered in some game through the utilization of game consoles.
By this method certain peculiarities (like skins, weapons, gears, etc.
) can be unlocked to enhance the player's game performance. 2.
Game save editors, Hex Editors, is another method to transform game data indirectly by modifying the save file.

It is an effective technique to alter the run-time data of the game that will be restored when the save file is loaded.
With the use of this tool, you can modify your character to acquire certain items, skills, stats, etc. 3.

Trainers, memory editing software, directly permit the player to manipulate the numeric values in memory addresses.
Software like these usually includes memory searches which allow the player to locate the memory areas of certain values (such as health, experience, or points). With the memory address, a memory editor is used to adjust the data stored at the memory address to increase, decrease, or freeze the memory address' value.

4. Code injection works by changing the course of execution of the game.

It modifies the game executable code while the game is running.

It is more advanced than memory editing and may cause the game to crash if not done properly.

5. Walkthroughs are sometimes considered as cheating by some gamers.

Using walkthroughs as a step-by-step guide throughout the game is considered cheating and may spoil the entire game. Cheating may be available in single player games, but game developers prevent it in multiplayer games to ensure a fun and balance gameplay.
As much as possible, try to cheat only when you get stuck.

Securing Newborns at Hospitals With RFID Technology

Security personnel at hospitals try to be on highest alert when it comes to protecting precious newborn babies. They have various tools to assist them including video cameras, defense equipment, door locks, alarms, and routine rounds.
Yet, this is not enough.
Infants are still being accidentally placed in the wrong crib and are still abducted right from within the hospital.
In October 2013 we came across a story of two mothers, giving birth at the same hospital in Argentine, on the same September 30th day.
The babies were born via C-section, and handed to the mothers only after recovery. Once the mothers and infants were home, a nagging feeling that something was wrong took over - realizing at one point that the babies are not their own.

The story comes to a happy end three weeks later, when the mistake was recognized and the right infants were put back with the right mothers.

In 2011 another interesting story took place, but didn't end so quickly, or have such little impact - a pair of 12-year-old girls who discovered they were accidentally switched at birth asked to stay with the mothers who have been raising them rather than go to their biological parents.

These kind of stories pop up in the news every several months, at various countries and cities. However, there are likely a higher percentage of 'babies switched at birth' stories than we actually hear about. We should and can eliminate this occurrence completely, with the right already available technological tools RFID technology can eliminate all infant security issues.
A wireless RFID bracelet is placed on the infant and the mother from the moment they enter the world, until they leave home with their families.
The bracelet is non-intrusive, and works in coordination with the hospitals' security system and personnel.
It can trigger alarms, lock doors, send notifications and much more - all in real time.

ultimately, this means that if the baby is put in the wrong crib, handed to the wrong mother, leaves the premises with unmatched adults or prior to the permitted time actions are taken.

Depending on the hospital, these actions may include alarms at the security and nursing stations, doors being shut, warning SMS...
etc.
A full security is in place with RFID solutions implemented in hospitals: 1. mother/baby mix-ups 2.
Milk storage mismanagement 3.
Legal lawsuits against hospitals 4.

Pain and suffering of the family 5.

Potential infant abduction .
.

Entourage Edge is an eBook reader but it is meant more for scholastic purposes. There are plenty of features inside which will be of great help for students.
They can take text notations while in class room through this device.
However, the device is quite heavy.

It is about five Amazon Kindles put together and this will certainly not go well with people who travel a lot.
The weight can be immediately felt when you hold it in the hand.
But then it is hard to complain about the weight since there are so many features inside the Entourage Edge.

Apart from that, the user interface could have been better.
It is fractured and nowhere close to what you gets on other eBook readers. Maybe the company will make the necessary improvements in further versions. There are a lot of capabilities inside the device and hence a strong user interface is necessary to proper execution.

The Entourage Edge is recommended if you are a student.

It is made for academics and textbooks.
It is hard to recommend the device to casual readers since they will find it difficult to handle it. Operation too is a bit complicated and you will have to spend some time to get used to it. If you are looking for good printing solutions for home or small business, take a look at Epson Workforce 610.
It is really fast and prints text and graphical documents rapidly. The feature set is good enough and you get both Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity options. It is recommended that you go for Wi-Fi since there is not much clutter of cables in the room.

The design might be a bit bulky but it is still very attractive. This is a welcome change especially because printers are very boring looking these days.
Another good thing about the Epson Workforce 610 is that the printer is easy to set up.
Epson WorkForce 610 has its own set of drawbacks though, it is slow in printing photos and the footprint is a bit big.

You will have to make a lot of free space on the desk for putting the printer and hence it is hard to recommend this printer if you don't have a lot of desk space. It is also disappointing to see that the printer doesn't have automatic duplexer.

To conclude, it can be said that the Epson Workforce 610 is capable of delivering the needs of both offices and businesses and it is recommended for people who are looking for a dependable and competent all in one printer. Pantech Link is a sleek and thin phone having rubber backing and the QWERTY keyboard is nice for typing long messages.

There are lots of cool features here like music player, 1.3 mega pixel camera, HSDPA/3G, and this phone also supports AT&T's cloud services.

The Pantech Link is pretty affordable and won't make a big hole in your pocket. However, the call quality of the Pantech Link isn't the best and it could have been improved by the manufacturer.

Discover Why Your Teenagers Looks Are So Important

Girls seem to spend years just growing their hair - until they can sit on it.

Then they want to get it styled this way and that and bit by bit the length is cut. Boys now seem to want to go to the Barber or Stylist much younger than previously.

Most will have a tidy cut but there are some who want to get into sculpted styles, gel ups or held together with all kinds of products and maybe the odd bit of highlighting or dyeing thrown in for impact.
Why do we say you must support them in their desires for a good hair style? Because it is so important to them to not stand out in the crowd for having a sad hair cut or style.

Far better that their hair is admired and approved of by peers.

During teenage years, friends are key.

Friends are much more important to a teenager than you can imagine. Add the fact that they are forging ahead discovering who they are, what they will become in life and all kinds of profound discoveries are being experienced by your teenager that is no longer a child.

They believe that their friends understand them more than relatives do during this time and identity is a fundamental need for them.
Boys will happily go to a Barber and it will be their mates' heads that influence their decision regarding what the barber is ordered to do.
Girls will take suggestions and all feedback regarding a style from staff at a Salon but the moment a parent dares to utter their approval or disapproval of a proposed style, all hell could break out! Parents would do well to bear in mind that hair needs regular cutting (trimming) to prevent splitting, frizz and breakage so a trip to the Salon is never a waste of time or money.
So, to recap.
At this age their basic needs are Friendships and Identity, after food, shelter etc.

Approval from their peers is critical to them.
Even on modest budget some things can be provided.
Negotiate with your teen regarding the budget available at the Salon, they will make do.

Think of it this way, the Salon trip is only once every 4-5 weeks so it could be more debilitating on the wallet if a day out at a Theme Park was requested. To refuse your teen when it comes to their hairstyle might send out an unspoken message of 'you're not worth it' which is something a parent must never do to their child.

Getting Your Degree Online

These days there are more and more people option for online degrees rather than the traditional ones wherein they attend university or school to get a certificate.
There are plenty of reasons as to why people are switching over to online degrees and we'd take a look at a few of them in this article.

However, you need to make sure that the online degree you're going to achieve is worth it as not all of them are certified and recognised courses.
They are really cheap when compared to traditional universities No matter which branch you're planning to study, universities today charge a lot and it's not affordable in most cases. However, when it comes to online courses you wouldn't have to pay the same amount - instead it's a fraction of what you would otherwise pay.
There are plenty of reasons as to why this happens such as: electricity cost, food, resources as well as maintenance of buildings and classrooms.
However, for online degrees all that needs to be done is pay the hosting fees and may be lecturers who work for them.
Usually there are videos which are a onetime payment and hence even lecturer fees are cut down upon. Study at your time Do you have a day job? If yes, then online courses are your best option as you would be able to study as per your timings and complete the course as per your whims and fancies.

You would be able to take days off if you wish and speed up whenever you can. Therefore, this is something that campus universities will never be able to offer. No more textbooks Well, this is another important factor that you need to consider when deciding.

There's no more a need to flip through pages of a textbook.
Of course there could be ebooks that you would need to refer to in order to complete your course.
You have faculty ready to guide you whenever you need it Just like the traditional universities, here too you would have faculty available to guide you and help you out if needed.
However, there would be a fixed timing set and you wouldn't be able to talk to them at 2 in the morning - unless you're in different time zones that is.
Therefore, there are plenty of benefits of studying and obtaining your degree online, so before you sign up make sure that the course is exactly what you need, because there are plenty of customisable courses available.

Six Ways to Keep Your Computer Running Smoothly and Efficiently

Just like humans, computers also get old and worn out, as time passes by, making them less efficient than before. When brand new, pc's are normally quite fast in performance and free of problems. However, as you continue to use your pc daily, browse the net, download files, and open various sites, certain problems start to arise.

Consequently, it's very important to keep your computer in excellent condition. There are various ways through which you can maintain the healthy condition of your pc.
1) To avoid unwanted malfunctions, ensure to place your computer in an area which is well ventilated.
Also, see to it that the air vents are not obstructed to avoid overheating as it can lead to defects in internal components.
Overheating is also a source of many other problems in pc.

If you're using a laptop, don't put it on cloth or soft material such as on the bed where the air vents will be blocked.
Instead, place it on a flat, hard surface. 2) Try to clean up the dust which accumulates inside the computer including the case and power supply vents, and circuitry.

You can use compressed air cans to clean these components. Do this every six months or more frequent than that.
Through this, circuitry damage and overheating can be avoided.

Remember to unplug your pc from the power outlet, of course, to avoid electrocution. Additionally, do not touch the circuitry to avoid any damages. 3) Make it a habit to create back ups of valuable data in case of unprecedented failure which causes data loss. If possible, keep updated backups and place the disks in a safe place so that even if your pc gets damaged or destroyed, you'll still have your precious files. 4) Install a reliable anti-virus program.
Be sure to keep it updated frequently to protect your pc from harmful virus attacks.
For more protection, set up the firewall as it can help make your computer more secure.
5) Run Scandisk and Defragmenter on your pc once in a few months for the maximization of the hard drive's efficiency.

Run Disc Cleanup to empty the recycling bin and remove accumulated files.
If don't know how to utilize these programs, you can use the "Help and Support" located on the Start menu. Learn all the mechanisms of your pc by searching for keywords in the Help section.
6) Avoid eating, drinking or smoking when using your pc. Eating and drinking while browsing the net brings the risk of spillage.
Moreover, smoking may result to residues inside the computer.

This can cause damages to sensitive parts.

Inflatable Bounce House Rentals

Inflatable bounce houses have been around for many years.

They started decades ago when someone was researching a field cover for grass.
The material became inflated from the wind and the bounce was born.
Bounce units are still very popular pieces for kids birthday parties, company picnics, and many other special events. Kids absolutely love bouncing and jumping in their very own bouncer for their party. When you are searching for bounce house rentals, be sure that you go with a reputable company. A reputable company has insurance, pays sales tax, and follows up with its customers in a timely manner.

There are many companies out there who rent bounce houses that are not reputable, don't have insurance, do not pay sales tax, and do not even write down their customers' orders! You will be disappointed if you decide to just go with the cheapest or the lowest priced person in the market.
You certainly get what you pay for! There are thousands of different styles of bounce house inflatables.
There are even bouncers that can be used wet with a slide on the inside or outside.

There are also inflatable obstacle courses, jousting arenas, water slides, slip and slides, and many many other styles of inflatable bounce units to choose from. The possibilities are really endless.
You will not go wrong with a bouncer house rental as long as you rent from a reputable company and involve your kids in the decision process of picking out a bounce for their party!

Benefits of Online Training

Online training is currently one of the most popular methods of providing education and training people across the world.
It mainly involves communication between an instructor and the student via the medium of internet. The major driving force for the use of online training methodologies is the geographical distance between the student and the instructor. With easy access to internet, it is now possible for a student to be instructed by an instructor who could be located at another part of the world.
The driving force for the spread of online training is that it allows for an interaction between people in various geographical locations in a seamless manner.
This also helps in providing real time educational facilities with the least amount of monetary expenditure.

Even to this day, there are some who prefer face-to-face training to online training.

Such people are to a large extent deprived of the services of a quality instructor who located in a different part of the world, for instance. As a result, people who prefer face-to-face training are largely isolated.
One of the benefits of conducting online training is the availability of software that provides instructors with a handy tool to analyze the progress of their students.

Online tests can be conducted and the results can be processed and analyzed within a very short duration of time, enabling the instructor to dedicate a large amount of time towards improving the conceptual understanding of the student. Various tools such as eLeap, Moodle etc that are classified as Learning Management Systems can be used to provide online training.

They create a near classroom type of an atmosphere by allowing instructors to create online presentations, tutorial videos and even assign fixed duration tests to provide a better understanding of the concept being instructed upon.
Many tools even provide a notification service wherein an email is sent automatically by the system to all the registered users informing them about the scheduled training sessions.

Current Trends in Corporate Training

With such ruthless ups and downs in the job market, along with an equally turbulent economy, there seems to be prompt transformations in the corporate training sector.
The bleak state of affairs is in no way capable of giving confidence and advancing employee growth and productivity.
Having said that, organizations cannot completely eliminate the prospect of conducting corporate training programs to train their employees either; satisfied employees are essential towards improving retention figures.
Keeping the training investment in-house will certainly make the affordability factor a little better.
Organizations are championing the cause of building these contented, industrious and efficient workforces. If that requires leveraging every spare dollar available that needs to be spent on harnessing the power of training and development, then organizations are not turning their backs on that possibility.

The fundamental objective is to look for affordable, yet user-friendly solutions to make trainings more than just an event, but instead a central factor of every facet of job functioning and accomplishment.

As the sector develops, some of the key trends that are influencing the organizations' growing concentration on employee training and development: An increase in the organizational training budgets: Market research projects a steady growth in corporate training budgets across multiple sectors in the near future. This is a strategic response to the rising manipulation of competition and rivalry in the market.
In addition to that, there is a constant compulsion on organizations to train fewer staff and the need to hold on to a skilled and experienced labor force. Evolution of dedicated training divisions: The training and development divisions are swiftly becoming integrated with larger organizational administrative operations.

Companies, in order to promote the advancement in best work practices are in favor of hiring the services of strategic professionals and internal advisors to cultivate composite solutions to operational challenges. Concentrate on developing leadership skills: In recent times, there seems to be a dire shortage of skilled manpower due to increasing baby boomer retirement numbers and competition for talent.
Having a successful leadership program and resourceful management training in place, internal organizational escalation and output will be on the rise, curtailing long term employee turnover rates.

HR is re-surfacing in a new role: Modern day human resource departments are more than avenues of employing and handing over the pink slip.
It is one of their central responsibilities to have a thorough knowledge of the organizational potential, categorize managerial depth and determine limitations along with the formulation viable strategies for structural enhancements.

Corporate trainings is only a composite element of this entire holistic constitution put together towards promoting a deliberate and encouraging human resource program. Online training management is on its way up: Global economic trends demand taking a calculated route towards corporate trainings yet within an organization's budgetary limitations.
Statistics reveal that more than 30% of training hours in the US is imparted via an online format. The focus is on the usage of technology in order to reduce excessive expenditures yet keeping the quality of the trainings and instructions intact.
Inclusion of social and mobile learning is also key components of the entire approach towards a complete online training management experience.

The future demands heavy dependency and concentration on technology based solutions.

Hence, solutions such as online training management and related applications are here to make the workings of the organization much more streamlined and methodical.

Improve Your Study Skills With Mnemonics

How do world memory champions remember the names of 600 people filing past them, or the order of cards in four packs of playing cards? Well, it turns out that they're not so different from the rest of us.
Thanks to Eleanor Maguire from University College London, we've discovered they don't have particularly high IQs or differently structured brains.
Instead, she detected activity in three particular brain regions.

These brain regions are usually busy for most of us during movement and navigation, but not normally during simple memory tests.
However, these were the very areas most active for these memory champions.

I bet you've come across a memory technique where you imagine a visualised journey, attaching the things you need to remember to the different stations along the way.

This is a mnemonic strategy and it was something like this, our champions used when those three areas lit up in their brains. In other words, their brains were assigning space and movement to the otherwise static cards.

How did they do this? To remember the playing cards, they assigned an identity to each card, perhaps an object or maybe a person, so as they flicked through the cards they were able to make up a story based on the card sequence and the interaction of those objects or people, along the familiar route they'd chosen.
Obviously it takes a bit of practice, but it clearly works.

So when you've got a list to remember, sometimes using this journey technique will do the trick, not to mention keep you more entertained than some other methods.
And as we know, when you're entertained you're more engaged and interested, and therefore more likely to remember.
Another technique, sometimes employed by actors, is to attach emotional meaning to the words you have to remember.
Evolutionary scientists tell us that human beings are far more likely to remember events with an emotional charge.

From an evolutionary point of view, it's probably one of the many things that helped to keep us successful as a species. After all, the emotional response to a saber-tooth tiger had our predecessors responding appropriately and living to see another day.

Some research done by the psychologist Helga Noice and the actor Tony Noice, demonstrated how engaging the emotions could help students improve study skills and remember their revision more easily.

Students who matched the words they needed to learn with previously learned movements could remember 38% of the words after just 5 minutes.
By contrast other students who had 5 min to learn their words and weren't given any other instructions only managed to remember 14%.

It is believed that having two mental representations, ie the words and the movements, gives you a better chance to remember, perhaps one triggering the other.

Perhaps the most important thing of all is having an effective strategy for your study skills, whether you use mnemonics or some other system.

Barry Gordon from John Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland suggest making life easier by getting into good habits such as always putting your car keys in the same place or writing important things down. In other words, putting effective processes in place.
Even just making a big effort to pay attention makes a huge difference.

During my 20 years of teaching, at the beginning of each new school year, I would have something like 200 or 300 new pupils to get to know.

Putting names to faces was often a real effort! And I had my systems for helping the information to sink in, such as referring to the class photograph and having the children sit in the same seats each week.
But in each lesson I would always make an heroic effort to concentrate.
To really study their faces, their body shape, physiology, tone of voice.
And you can probably imagine that some of the children made it easier, through their behaviour, by making themselves known to me pretty quickly! Often it was the quieter ones who took a little more effort.
And so it is with your revision.
The more interesting, the funnier, the sillier, the ruder you can make your revision notes, The easier you'll find it to recall them later on. It's the quiet information that you got to work harder to remember and perhaps that's where mnemonics come into their own.

Learn to Read - Read to Learn

Reading together can bring joy to both children and adults. A popular activity, it combines entertainment with quality time. However, one additional motivation to read is for its educational value.

The relationship between the two can easily benefit children if parents and educators incorporate some easy steps.
Adults who ask questions to children during reading time can enhance the understanding of material. Using the 5 W's and the H (who, what, where, when, why, and how), grown-ups can check for comprehension as well as tap into a child's creative side.
Additionally, using a variety of emotions (intonations) when the creative questions are asked encourages positive buy-in from the young ones. I am a children's book author and teacher who makes visitations to schools.

I utilize these very same techniques each time I make a presentation. Prior to reading any book, I begin with a series of questions in order to smoothly transition my audience into the upcoming story, and then I continue to ask questions as the action progresses. For example, just before I start to read the ever-popular Don't Pick Your Nose, I enthusiastically ask students: "What is a habit? What are some good habits? What are some bad habits?" Participants come up with a multitude of responses.
Most often, however, they share that brushing their teeth and washing their hands are good habits while biting their nails and picking their nose are at the top of the list of negative behaviors. My next question is, "What makes one habit 'good' and another habit 'bad?'" My audience then tells me that good habits usually keep a person cleaner and healthier while bad habits can spread germs and cause illness and/or harm. My last question before starting to read is, "Why is it important to listen to your parents?" We discuss this premise as well.

I then make a segue way into the story by explaining a small portion of the plot of Don't Pick Your Nose: "A little boy has a bad habit.
His parents try to help him to change this behavior, but he doesn't listen to them. Let's see what takes place." My young audience is now hooked because they want to see what happens next.

I begin to read the story of a little boy who has a bad habit: he picks his nose.
Despite his parents' efforts to modify this conduct, the little boy continues.

Then one day, his finger gets stuck in his nose.

Throughout the story, I stop and ask questions.
If my audience is very young, I ask about numbers, colors, animals, people, etc.
that are seen in the book: "What color is the boy's shirt? How many students are in the classroom? What may be in the boy's backpack?" If my listeners are older, I specifically target some of the State's curriculum standards: "Describe the main character? What is the setting? How does the main character try to resolve his problem? What advice would you offer our main character in regard to his habit?" All of these inquiries encourage students to stay engaged, to look for clues, and to use their imagination. When the reading has concluded, I transition into higher-level thinking questions: "What is the theme of Don't Pick Your Nose? Would you have ended this story in a different way? If so, how?" My strategies remain consistent when I read any of my books to children.
My intonation fits the mood of each story, and my questions elicit answers that will show whether these young listeners have understood what they've heard. I am happily satisfied at the conclusion of each presentation that students have enjoyed this special event and have learned from the experience.

Masters of Health Administration to Enrich Career Prospects in Health Care

Education has been the backbone to success in different fields.

So many individuals have come out strongly and with the demand to specialize in Healthcare.

The MHA is one of the institutions that offer such programs. The world's economy therefore is quite diverse and calls for a wide coverage and therefore, Healthcare services takes this wide professional and managerial coverage.

A degree program in MHA will not only enable an individual to grow professionally but also personally.
To undertake a degree course in MHA, you do not only need to be fresh for it but it is so flexible such that it can accommodate both employed and unemployed students.

The MHA is also open for trained clinical supervisors like nurses, physicians, physical therapists and other professionals.
These professionals ay be those people who would like to train for management courses or rather those who would like to enhance their career and obtain knowledge and skills o business health care. This field of occupation has been widely known for offering the best and well earning jobs across the globe.
The senior managerial and planning health care service needs skills and knowledge from the students and therefore the Masters of Healthcare Administration is strongly determined to ensure that the degree program are orderly and adhered to.

The Degree programs in this case are very helpful to the students and this means that they are made to give them competence n different fields of their study.

The student should meet some academic qualifications before enrolling for the Masters of Healthcare and Administration. The basic requirements include that the applicant should have professional experience in Healthcare and be a three years undergraduate degree holder in the same field of study.
This enables the Degree holders to catch up quickly and gain the ability to deliver quickly and adhere to the standards.

Role of Case Studies in Employee Training and Development

One way to help trainees learn analytical and problem solving skills is by presenting a story (called a case) about people in an organization who are facing a problem or decision.

Cases may be faced on actual events involving real people in an organization, or they can be fictional.
Business case studies are included in college text books and courses in management, public administration, law, sociology, and similar subjects.

They are increasingly available using video and other media.

While cases vary in complexity and detail, trainees should be given enough information to analyze the situation and recommend their own solutions.

In solving the problem, the trainees are generally required to use a rational problem-solving process that includes the following steps: 1.

Restating important facts 2.
Drawing inferences from the facts 3.
Stating the problem or problems 4.
Developing alternative solutions and then stating consequences of each 5.
Determining and supporting a course of action Proponents of the case study method argue that this form of problem solving within a management setting offers illustrations of the concepts students are respected to learn and use, improves communications skills, and facilities the linking between theory and practice.
Proponents also claim that cases allow students discuss, share, and debate the merits of different inferences, problems, and alternative courses of action. Such insight can help students to develop better analytical skills and improve their ability to integrate new information.
The case study method also has vigorous critics who argue that it can cause group think, focuses too much on the past, limits the teaching role of the trainer, reduces the learner's ability to draw generalizations, reinforces passively on the part of the learner, and promotes the quantity of interaction among students at the expense of the quality of interaction.
Andrews and Noel claim that cases often lack realistic complexity and a sense of immediacy, and inhabit development of the ability to collect and distill information.
In addition, trainees may get caught up in the details of the situation, at the expense of focusing on the larger issues and concepts they are trying to learn.
To overcome these limitations of case study training method, the trainer should make expectations clear and provide guidance when needed. In addition, the trainer must effectively guide the discussion portion of the case study to ensure trainees have an opportunity to explore differing assumptions and positions they have taken and the rationale for what constitutes effective responses to the case.
The point in discussing business cases is not to find the "right" solution, but to be able to provide a reasoned and logical rationale for developing a course of action. Variations in the case study method have also been proposed.
One such variation, called a living case, has trainees analyze a problem they and their organization are currently facing.

Does Behavior Modification Offer Real Hope For Troubled Teens?

Many of the programs designed to provide help for troubled teens-including well-publicized "boot camps"--rely upon behavior modification strategies to inspire change. Although this method is unquestionably popular, it's well worth considering just how well it works to produce lasting and meaningful alterations in behavior.

Behavior modification utilizes positive and/or negative reinforcement to encourage people to act in a preferred manners. Generally, a structured system of punishments and rewards are used in hopes of molding behavior to fit a goal "pattern". With boot camps for teens and other programs, children are subjected to rules and structures and are taught that certain (positive) behaviors will result in some kind of reward while other (negative) behaviors will not.

In some cases, positive behaviors will stave off negative events and negative behavior will have consequences in the form of punishment. Treating teens like one of Pavlov's dogs will produce changes in behavior.

The participants quickly learn the rules to "the game" and alter their actions to minimize discomfort and to maximize rewards. They don't change because doing so is "right".

They change because it makes their life a little easier within the environment of the program.

However, that doesn't mean the programs are truly working.
The changes in outward behavior might look good, but they're quite superficial.
They often exist only as a means of playing the behavior modification game.

When the teen returns home, it's all too common to watch them backslide once the artificial constraints of the punishment/reward structure are removed.

Meanwhile, the root causes of the behavior that led up to enrollment in the program are often ignored.
Those sources of rebellion, distance or disregard for others remain intact.
The superficial behavior changes are nothing more than a band-aid that won't stay in place over the long run. If you want to offer real hope for teens to improve their behavior and to function successfully over the long run, you don't want to rely on behavior modification-based boot camps and other programs.

Instead, find a way to deal with the core issues at play. Real change comes from deep within, not from "playing by the rules" just to pass through a program.

How to Get the Right Start in the Acting Industry

Acting is no longer frowned upon by people. In fact it is now seen as a lucrative career option that can catapult you to the heights of fame.
So, what is the first and foremost thing to do when you have chosen acting as your career option? For any profession we require a resume to start off.
In the world of acting, your portfolio will act as your resume.
You have to engage a good photographer who will shoot your portfolio.
Basically, you have to get yourself photographed in different outfits so that the directors can see what kind of outfits suit you the most and how comfortable you are in front of the camera.

After you have got your portfolio, it is time to hire an agent who can keep you updated about the various auditions that are going on.

It is not necessary that you will land a lead role in the first few auditions. In fact, most auditions will be for small roles.

Irrespective of the length of the part, you have to prepare yourself well.

So, what happens during an audition? You will be given a script and asked to read a few lines from it.

If you are auditioning for a role in theatre, you will most likely be asked to read a monologue. Try to know about the character. How old is he? Where does he come from? This will help you to deliver your lines better.

Most aspiring actors tend to go blank when they are asked to read a script.
This is mostly due to extreme nervousness.
Some also tend to fumble while reading their lines. Casting directors don't have the patience to listen to someone stammering and stuttering when there are thousands of people waiting their turn.

That is why, you need to make sure that you are confident and do a good job. Before your turn comes, try to do some vocal exercises as this will help to ease the tension slightly.

It is natural to be nervous but you should not let it hamper your acting skills.

There are a few other things that you have to keep in mind while going for an audition.

You have to patient and wait your turn.
The most important job is to convince the director that you are the right person for the role.
Don't try to flatter the director by showering compliments as it will act as a red flag to them.

When you are finished reading your lines, don't pester the director with questions regarding when they will call you for the role. Just say goodbye and leave politely.

If you are selected, they will inform you. Lastly, keep practicing to improve yourself. Try to note down your strengths and weaknesses.

If a director has asked you to improve in a certain area, make a note of it.
You will surely keep getting better with each audition.

Amber Alert GPS

Statistics about child abduction show that you cannot be too careful with your child.
These statistics show that the rise in child abduction case is 444% since 1982 and are it still continues to rise today.

In the US alone there are more than 100 cases each year when a child is abducted and murdered. This situation makes parents feel very anxious when they go out with their kid, especially when traveling to crowded places.
Parents, who have lost their child, even if only for a few minutes, can attest to the fact that the horrible feeling is not soon forgotten.
In the past, the best thing a parent could do was use a safety harness when going out with his kid.
This made the parent aware of the kids' location at all times. However, this solution isn't suitable to all ages, which poses a bigger problem - should responsible parents let this situation control their lives? Some decide not to deal because the reality is in fact scary.
Some impose themselves on their children and other try to balance the two, but find it to be very hard. Luckily, as technology evolves, more kid safety products are being invented and responsible parents find it easier to protect their kid without making him feel burdened and insecure. The latest kid safety product, which answers to the name "Amber Alert GPS" is providing just that.

Turns out that this gadget's ability to protect children from kidnapping as well as its other child safety features, are exactly what parents have been looking for.

The Amber Alert GPS is a GPS system uniquely designed to insure kids' safety. It was invented by Russell Thornton, that being a parent himself, felt the desperate panic of losing a child temporarily. The solution that Thornton found has exceeded most parents' expectations: a device with which you monitor your child whereabouts via you cellular phone and computer, that can be used to send an SOS signal and many other safety features. When parents first hear about this solution, it initially sounds too good to be true.

Knowing where your child is even when he is out of site, puts parents mind at ease. But further of the product, reveals that the product offers much more than that.

In case of abduction, a parent will not only know where his child is taken (since this device is so small it will most likely won't be spotted by the kidnapper) but will also be able to pass this information to the police along with the ability to listen in on whats going on until the child is safely recovered. Since time is a crucial factor in recovering kidnapped children, there is no doubt that the Amber Device significantly improves child safety, and many parents are getting it.

Influencing Your Children To Learn Writing Faster

If your children are three or four years old, then you better start to introduce the children to write and read.

Usually, the children within this age have the ability to memorize something.

You can introduce the alphabet and numbers as the starter.
To make the children memorize the alphabet and number easier, you should introduce them through the things around their daily life.

For example you introduce the alphabet A by using apple.

It is proven that the children will be able to remember the alphabet easier if you use the things which are familiar to them.

Another option for you to teach your children to learn the alphabet is through the song. You should be familiar with the ABC song. By using this song, you can teach the children the formation of the alphabet. What letter after this letter.
Song is one of the media which is easy to remember by the children.
This rule is not only applied for the alphabet and numbers.
You can also apply this rule to educate the children to memorize the color. For example, you teach your children to memorize the orange color.

You can use the color of the orange fruit.
When using the model or the education book, sometimes you may meet the example which is totally foreign for the children.
Instead of using the foreign object, use the common things around your home.

If you use the foreign object, the children will face the difficulty not only to memorize the color but also recognize the object.

When teaching the children, it is better for you to use the model which has the colorful and eye catching color.

Children will find the models are attractive and the learning process is fun. It is important for you to make the learning process is fun so your children enjoy the process and the education can be received well.
The best way to teach the alphabet and number to the children is practice.
You should tell your children to practice writing.
Give them some papers.
You need to guide them and give them example how to write the alphabet.

Kids Shoes Tips & Advice - Sandals For Frugal Shoppers

Howdy, let's continue our baby and kids shoes shopping tips & advice series.

We're right in the middle of summer here in Montreal and many young kids are having fun in summer camps.

Since it can be quite hot here in the day time, sandals are absolutely must-haves for children to keep their feet cool and comfy.
While style and design are some of the most essential elements, I'll add more to the criteria for trouble-free kids' sandals shopping.
Hope they can help parents.

* Brand V.
S Quality.

It's undeniable that famous name brands have the latest styles and best design.

Most of them are pricey too.
As a parent wrote in a comment to my article, most kids wear cheap shoes that don't give their feet good support because parents can't afford expensive ones. However, we believe that there are kids' shoes brands that combine style, quality and affordability at the same time.
Do your due diligence and chances are even the most frugal shoppers can find their hearts' desire for kids.
* Consult a Kids' Shoes Professional.
Go to a shoe store where you can find a sales person with in-depth knowledge on kids' shoes and have your kids' feet measured accurately.

Make sure there's room (around 0.5 inch) for your kids' toes move freely.
* Breathable Uppers Keeps Feet Odour Free. Some synthetic or plastic materials can actually make kids' feet sweat and stink.

That's very embarrassing especially among a crowd.

Choose kids sandals with uppers made of mesh or genuine leather that can breathe and makes feet odour free.

By the way, genuine leather shoes adapt to feet much better too.

* Avoid Slip-ons for Outdoor Activities.
Slip-on or strapless sandals do not provide ankle support and are not recommended for kids who love outdoor activities. That's why many parents are buying sling-back sandals for kids even they might look less stylish.

* Skid-free but Flexible Soles Are Essential. Kids have a lot of summer activities near pools or water front where slip-free sole can be found useful.
As we've mentioned many times before, kids' shoes soles must be flexible, preferably with shock-absorbing petals and cushions that reduce the impact when kids' feet hit the ground.

Reverse Address Searches

Why do a reverse address search? So you've got an address, now all you want is the phone number in service there. Plenty of situations arise in which it could be helpful to know the phone number at an address. You might have lost your address book with all your names and numbers.

Maybe you just want to get in touch with the owner of a specific location. Whatever your reason is, you will need to do an address for phone number lookup.
Problems that can arise.
Getting the current phone number and billing name associated with a particular street address can be tricky.
There are countless free online resources that will often times give you results for an address, but when you go to call you find out the number has been disconnected or it now belongs to somebody else.

Things can change, people move and change their phone numbers constantly.

Even more frustrating than getting the wrong info for free is when you go and pay out of pocket for "instant" results only to get information you could have looked up for free in the white pages.

With this being said, avoid any investigation services that claim instant results. Any instant results they give you are more than likely to not be what you want.

If you need to find a phone number from an address make sure the investigators are going to hand pick the results, although you may pay a fee, this will better serve you in the end.
What the right kind of number search will provide you with.

Ideally, you want to be able to submit any address to your investigation company and get a billing name and 10 digit phone number in return. If you want accurate information do not expect instantaneous results.
Ideally the best results can be achieved through a professional private investigator, who process and search each request by hand. They also money back guarantee results when you do a phone number look up by address with them.
There may be a fee with investigative services for no hit searches however.
What not to expect. The reverse address search is for people who need a billing name and telephone number for a specific street address only.

This type of look up is not for people who need owner info for a cell phone or beeper number. This type of search will also not be beneficial to people expecting info on a 900 or toll free number housed in a location.

Why Einstein Believed Imagination Is More Important Than Knowledge

Albert Einstein's quotes are very popular these days, and some of them have an eerily prophetic voice that speaks, it seems, for the exact information age in which we now live.

The queer thing that gets me most about Einstein, for all his absurdly astonishing contributions to the strict, hard science of Physics, is that he just never acted all that impressed with knowledge and technology. In fact, he often warned about the negative effects technology could have on people.

Instead he went out of his way to extol the virtue and pre-eminence of imagination.

Here is the quote: "Imagination is more important than knowledge" - Albert Einstein Why would he say that? Einstein lived in the spectacular golden age of science.

Comprehension about the human body, our world and even the universe - from the infinitesimally small to the infinitely colossal - grew at an exponential rate.

The information and knowledge gathered in that era paved the way for almost all the great technological advances that we enjoy (or greatly fear) today.

I think Einstein believed in the superiority of imagination because knowledge has a severe limitation. I do not mean it is limited in that there is still so much we do not know about the universe, for example.
Of course there is much to learn, but it is imagination rather than knowledge that allows us to figure out how to do it.

Simply put, we were never going to put a man on the moon until someone dreamed it could be done.

Likewise, a cure for cancer or AIDS will not be found until some creative soul expands the limits of knowledge and starts thinking, or better, imagining, "what if we do this?" So imagination fuels the advancement of knowledge; not merely by fits and starts, but by factorial leaps.

Is it really a stretch, then, to say this is a great foundation for teaching a child? Learning by drill and repetition bores most children to abject misery.
No wonder so many boys, given their propensity for restlessness, especially have trouble in traditional schools.
Educators and parents would do well to lead children into asking the big questions (who, what, how, why) and encouraging them to dream, to imagine what is not and to believe they can make a difference.
So if you are wondering if your child's time is best spent memorizing multiplication tables or studying the planets as opposed to playing with Legos, without a doubt, I believe Einstein would suggest your child build a spaceship.
