Save the baby teeth!
August 14, 2009 — Alenka | Posted in Baby Needs. No Comments »Even though those teeth in your little one’s adorable smile are just temporary, we still have to take great care of them. How do you brush your kids teeth? Parents of toddlers probably want to ask: “how do you keep the baby from squirming away?” Parents of school-age kids probably would rephrase it: “How do you make sure they actually brush their teeth behind those close bathroom doors?” Parents of newborns probably ask: “When do you start brushing?”





I am continuing a list of activities/games that can be played with the baby to help his development… or just for fun!



Thanks to A.P.P. we have lots (and I mean really lots) of new presentations available! Here are some fantastic new music presentations:

There had been many inquires for presentations about musical instruments 1 & 2 (A.P.P. has terrific collections 3 & 4, so it was causing some confusion). I uploaded my own version of these presentations: they are available in English, in Russian and even in both languages. These presentations contain magnitude information (facts about each instruments), images of instruments and players, even sounds. Enjoy!
My son absolutely loves using “adult” real equipment: instruments, kitchen utensils, office supplies, even my makeup brushes. Anything that I use myself. Many of those tools can actually do a great job developing his small motor skills, so I love finding a chance for him to use it. I even set up a shelf in my kitchen closet filled with his own “adult” tools: a little water pitcher, salad tongs, spoons, dough roller, bowls and cups of different sizes. He loves it!!! Montessori-style, I also added a tray and a little mat to place underneath his tools, to avoid slippery surface.
Old classics have an irresistible appeal: my son really enjoyed trying his reading skills on this nursery rhyme, while I was curious to find out what it actually meant before “Alice in Wonderland”! You can find an explanation of this rhyme at the last page of English presentation.
