postheadericon Keeping Your Child’s Development Offline


It is normal for today’s mom to be proud of whatever development their children are having. That’s why pictures of firsts like first-step, first-grip, and first-immunization-day photos can fill up their social networking accounts. There’s nothing bad about it but some parents would rather choose to keep their children’s profile offline for some very important reasons.

These parents decided to keep it because they don’t want to place their children’s information for possible cyber-bullying acts. It believed that what has been posted online can never be kept private even with the presence of privacy options. These parents would want to involve their children with this kind of activity online but would then let them decide when the right time comes.

When these children will know how to operate gadgets or with parental guidance would finally know how to have their online accounts but not social networking because basically it is not allowed when a child is below 18 years old as per Facebook Rules and Guidelines (by the way Facebook is the leading social networking site nowadays), when they're already 18, then that’s the time that could decide to share their photos online.
 

postheadericon Children and Horses


Most children would have come into contact with a cat and a dog from a fairly young age but horses are seen as a lot bigger and scarier and sometimes a child will not have had any interaction with a horse when they are young making it scarier for them as an older child or grown up. Horses are not as common a pet as a cat or a dog and the chances of knowing someone with a horse are not that high so it might involve a journey to a farm or local stables to ensure your child is familiar with a variety of animals. Equally, it is really important for a horse to feel secure around children. Some horses have a highly nervous disposition and will not like children or will be very nervy around them which is why it is also good for a horse to be used to children from a young age if possible.

When introducing a horse to a child it is important to be really careful. Ensure the child is aware of what is happening and follows basic rules such as to not put their hand up to a horse’s mouth and to only feed a horse from a flat hand under adult supervision. Do not let your child run about near the horse and never let them walk behind a horse in case the horse kicks their legs out and accidently strikes them.

Take your child to a horse that will be okay around children, don’t make a potentially dangerous situation worse by introducing them to a nervy and jumpy horse. Equally do not take a child that you know will react badly, might hit out at an animal or screech at them making them jump.

If you have a good horse and a good child then there is a lot you can do to make the situation fun. They can help with various tasks such as cleaning out the stable, grooming the horse and helping make up feeds.  Children can follow instructions so would be able to make up feeds that include a few different types of horse food, horse supplements and if they are older they may be able to chop carrots to add to food. They key is make the situation fun and pleasant for both the horse and child and introduce them to each other at a young age so they grow up being familiar with them.

postheadericon Baby Bonding


Bonding with your child happens for some at the moment of birth, but for others, it takes more time. Either way, it is a learning process for both parents as they begin to know and love their baby. Whoever is going to be mother and father to this baby needs to come to terms with their new role. If there has been a difficult birth, or complications, you will need extra outside support to get you back on your feet, so that you can get on with the job of caring for and loving your new baby.

Your newborn is programmed with instincts and reflexes that enable her to survive and grow and learn. Her newborn behavior is unpredictable, but there are baselines to look for as you get to know her. Touch and human contact are as essential to your baby as food, warmth and sleep. Her reactions to your handling her needs will guide you. If she gets what she needs, she will know the world is a good place.

postheadericon Reliable and Risk-free Online Auction Site


It is very seldom that I join bidding in an auction site for it is frustrating if I didn't win. I am not sure if there is a technique to be able to win on bidding. I have never tried that I was the first one who bid the product. Sometimes, I tempted to bid first the product, but I want to use the maximum bid right away. I am not sure if someone outbids my initial offer which is the maximum bid, then the auction site will give the product to the one who outbids my offer. If that is the case, I am still the loser. Anyway, a friend of mine told me that she likes to bid at the DealDash auction site because you will never lose the game once you joined the bidding. I visited the site a while ago, and for me, it is cool. First, you need to sign up, and purchase bids for 60¢ each in packs of 100, so you can join the bidding. Next, choose the product you like and then place a bid. If you win, you will definitely get the product, but if you lose, buy the product and get back your bids for free. Isn’t it awesome? I have never tried it yet, but I am interested to join this auction site that I have visited earlier.
