Learning Should be Like This, Fun and Creative
September 8th, 2011Night Before School
September 5th, 2011T’was the night before school started, when all through the town, the parents were cheering – a riotous sound!! By nine, kids were all washed & tucked into bed where memories of homework filled them with dread! New pencils, new folders, new notebooks too! New teachers, new friends – their anxiety grew! The parents just giggled when they learned of this fright and shouted to all “GO TO BED!!!! IT’S A SCHOOL NIGHT!!!”
Making Mom Smile with a Novelty Mother’s Day Gift
April 21st, 2011Every year mothers around the world are honored on Mother’s Day, but it seems that sons and daughters have lost the ability of creative gift giving.
Mothers are receiving the same presents year after year so that the surprise factor has been lost. Instead of flowers, candy or jewelry this year, why not surprise Mom with a particularly unusual gift for Mother’s Day that will put a smile on her face and keep it there for days.
One of the cutest useful gifts for Moms is theui guitar baking spatula.
This delightful silicone kitchen utensil comes in three colors: red, blue, and black. It stands up to high temperatures and can be cleaned in the dishwasher. The guitar baking spatula will make Mom think of you fondly every time she uses it.
Another great Mother’s Day gift for Moms who love to cook is the French Toast Bread Stamper. This little contraption presses an image of the Eiffel Tower into the bread for a beautiful cultural dish.
To complement the French toast, most Moms would love to have a flower egg molder.
Used during the cooking process to hold an egg in the shape of a flower, this is a novel way to dress up a traditional breakfast dish. By adding green garnishes to the plate, it is possible to create an edible flower garden.
One of the great Mom gifts that will make laugh out loud is a set of Chill Pill Ice Cubes.
These colorful drink coolers can be refrozen each time they are used to make a delightful addition to glasses of tea, soda, or juice. Other novelty cubes can be made with the Cool Jewels Ice Cube Tray.
Making Mom’s Mother’s Day special should be simple with such so many wonderful choices available. She is not an avid cook, she is sure to appreciate some of the other unusual gift choices.
For example, the Mona Lisa Clock is not only useful but will be the most noticeable conversation piece in the room.
The hands on the clock make the eyes in the portrait move, which always attracts interest.
Mom might also appreciate having a pair of Gem Ear Buds, particularly if she enjoys listening to music at all times. These delightful Gem Ear Buds are a great way to accessorize an outfit while surreptitiously enjoying the latest beat.
While these gifts are not as traditional as jewelry and perfume, they will be noticed and valued.
Just seeing the look on Mom’s face when she opens one of these unique offerings will be worth the effort of purchasing such unique gifts and will leave her waiting expectantly to see the surprises in store for the next holiday.
Mothers are worth their weight in gold, and Mother’s Day gifts should put a smile on their faces which will last for days.
Farting – Funny Facts & Gift Ideas
April 13th, 2011

Humans seem to become fascinated with farting as toddlers and begin to find the act of passing gas progressively more hilarious throughout their teenage years.
In fact, although adults have learned to control their facial expressions a bit more and do not laboriously discuss a fart that slips by occassionally, they can often be seen turning away to conceal a bit of a smile.
If the fart is particularly odiferous, as one would be after the consumption of cauliflower, shrimp, or eggs, it can quickly clear a large area of the room. For this reason, people should arm themselves with fart facts to ensure that they are not caught in an unenlightened state of farting ignorance.
Where did the word “fart” originate?
Although no one knows for sure who used this term for the first time, it is quite old.
Chaucer used it in print in 1386, and the term might have originally meant “blended.” Some of those blends prove to be strongly aromatic!
What was the greatest fart act of all time?
One French performer, Joseph Pujol, put together an act using the farting sound during the 1800’s.
He thrilled his audiences with sounds of a machine gun blast, thunder, well-known songs, and cannon fire using only the gas produced copiously from his own innards. He was a booming hit!
Currently, Mr.Methane proclaims that he is the “world’s only performing flatulist,” belting out musical “rearditions” for even the rich and famous.
How is it possible to create a fart on queue?
Some are probably wondering by now, just how to practice for an audition with one of the many fart shows in production.
Well, it is true that certain actions supposedly enhance the possibility of farting.
Gulping large quantities of air seems to help so chewing with the mouth open might work. Also, nervousness generally removes less air from the digestive tract so being in front of an audience will probably help.
Eating a copious amount of cabbage, corn, raisins or other gas producing foods allows the human body to build up more bacterial fuel for eventual emission.
Finally, consider performing at high altitudes, such as Mount McKinley, although each fart might freeze upon emerging, because lower pressure makes gas expand and will help the cause.
What is the normal range for fart production?
Everyone wants to be normal so it is important to know that average humans pass gas about fourteen times daily; however, masters of this feat surpass this number before breakfast each morning.
Actually, counting farts is a bit difficult because they often seem to run together in a strange rhythmic pattern.
What are the best farting gifts to share with friends on special occasions?
Everyone know that a fart machine of any kind can provide extreme comedy, but other funny gifts for a fart fanatic can be just as enthralling. One is a book called The Gas We Pass-The Story of Farts, by Shinta Cho. This is a manual with cartoons and illustrations that will be greatly informative to young, naïve readers.
Once educated about the facts of farting, they will surely be receptive to owning a Fanny Bank-Farting Piggy Bank. This unique receptacle for savings lets them place their pennies in the plumber’s crack in order to be rewarded with a magical farting sound.
Here is a Method That is Helping Parents Build Stronger Families
March 31st, 2011
Strong families do not occur by accident. They are created by purposeful action and strategic planning. Research has found that even simple actions, such as having a family meal together once a day or giving a hug each morning and night, can draw a family together and create a strong bond between members.
Other ideas for keeping families strong include participating together in charitable causes and giving each family member an important chore to let him or her know that their role in the group is valuable.
Writing Diaries and Memoirs
Another great method that is helping parents build stronger families may be somewhat surprising. Journaling can act as glue that binds members and also as an excellent form of communication.
Family members should be allowed to choose their own diaries for recording thoughts, emotions, and successes. They are to know that these manuscripts will be public offerings, but they should also know that honesty will be appreciated and their feelings respected.
Family Journal Time
Each day, a timer should be set for at least ten minutes. This is family journal time, and all other distractions should be put aside, including phones and all other electronic devices. Family members should each concentrate on recording their ideas and feelings about the events of the day. These reflections may be unanswered questions, concerns, achievements, angry tirades, or any other reaction to daily circumstances.
Each night, family members must share one entry from their journal with the rest of the group. Then, parents should lead a discussion of the issues addressed until each member’s feelings have been validated.
This nightly routine may seem daunting at first. Modern society leaves very little time for family activities that center on communication and bonding, but keeping a journal forces members to reflect on themselves and on their familial role.
It is sometimes easier to put the words down on paper, where they can be edited, than to speak them aloud because once they are spoken, especially in anger, the hurt caused can never be completely undone.
Establishing a family journal time may mean eliminating one television show each evening or cancelling a shopping trip, but building stronger families is surely worth sacrificing in other areas.
Family journaling is not a magic bullet for parents working on building stronger families by itself. It is, however, a tool that parents can use along with other good parenting skills to bind members into a close knit group.
