This year for school make sure you are always on time with a nice timepiece from Time World Inc. Watches make wonderful accessories and are completely functional. Plus cell phones are not allowed in some schools, so you need a watch to tell the time. Therefore find a watch that is all you and really helps tell your style story.

When it comes to moods and emotions, young children can be all over the map. Partly this is due to their age and that they are still learning how to manage their emotions and partly this is due to their lack of real understanding of what their “normal” is. Parents who are in tune with their kids can often pinpoint quickly what the culprit is when their mood changes suddenly. It could be something as simple as needing a nap or having consumed too much sugar, both of which are fairly quickly remedied. In other cases, however, their moodiness may have a more serious cause. Here are 4 reasons why your child might be “in a mood” more often.

Moving to a new school can be difficult for a child, but this is a common and necessary transition that almost all students experience at least once. Maybe your family is moving to a new home in a new city, or perhaps your child’s progress is ahead or behind and the transfer is being made to a school like Kid’s Country Learning Center to accommodate her academic needs.

There is no mistaking that if your kids aren’t headed back to school now, they will be soon – the stores are filled with supplies and sales and ads for back-to-school. The beginning of a new school year can be an especially challenging time for parents and children both, although for totally different reasons.

Then meeting the teachers, checking out the classrooms, and assessing the curriculum for the year is next on the list.

Here is a fun game to teach your child the difference between a simile and metaphor. I used it for my 5th grader for extra practice yesterday and she played three times. 🙂
The student can create their own teacher with features. (I just snipped a preview above)
Then, they have to answer all 15 questions correctly to build a catapult that will fling the teacher at the end. 😉 Fling the Teacher is a fun way to practice skills. They will want to keep going until they answer all questions correctly!
