| How To Make the Transition into Kindergarten Smoother Posted: 12 Mar 2010 06:36 PM PST Each learning experience is built on another. Before sending a child to Kindergarten, a parent or caregiver should go to the library with the child. Be sure to show the child where the bathroom and water fountain are at the library. Comparing going to the library with going to Kindergarten is possible because they both have wonderful books and children are expected to be quiet and listen in both places. The second time a child is taken to the library one might want to teach the child how to borrow or check out a book. Returning the book the next day before the child gets too attached to the book will teach the concept of returning things that are borrowed. Compare taking books home from kindergarten to taking books home from the library. Just as they have to take books back to the library children need to take books back to kindergarten. |

| How To Pick a Frame for Pictures Posted: 12 Mar 2010 05:17 PM PST Picking a frame for a picture can be a fun experience and is really not that difficult when a few things are considered. Fist, where will the picture be located and what is the subject matter of the picture itself. When these two things are considered in detail the task is a pleasant one. When you consider where the picture will be located, think of the room it is in, what takes place in the room and what else is going on in the room. For example, if you are looking at a picture for your family room and the style of the room is simple and unassuming it is best to choose a frame that stays in the same general mood. To put a gilded gold frame in a room that is done in a natural soothing design would make it seem out of place. Another way to look at it is to think of how the room is used. If you normally watch television and hang out with friends in the room it is not likely the best choice to make the frame formal and heavy. |
