When it comes to planning homeschool science activities or experiments, I have so far proven to be quite terrible at planning ahead. This one is super simple, though, and when I got the idea I set it up - even though I had no specific plan to do this activity with the girls - and it was ready when I wanted it! I got this idea from Lemon Lime Adventures. Empty plastic containers in which to freeze water.

On Bed Bugs, Head Lice and Hardship

http://www.pinkbears.ca/index.php/item/566-on-bed-bugs-and-head-lice

On Bed Bugs, Head Lice and Hardship. Wednesday, 29 June 2016 08:38. On Bed Bugs, Head Lice and Hardship. I recall an incident as a teenager, a family that I babysat for - and absolutely adored - called me over to talk with them in person for a serious conversation. I was so worried that they were moving, or worse - that someone in the family was deathly ill - that when they told me their daughter had head lice, I was relieved! Image from babycentre.co.uk. My children are so serious. Suddenly one day the ...

The Internet

http://www.pinkbears.ca/index.php/item/564-the-internet

Thursday, 31 March 2016 08:30. There are times when my life throws sticks and stones in my direction. And there are times it throws grenades. Then, in the stillness, when the dust is falling around me. I find myself sinking and unable to see through the haze. Sinking into a sadness, a numbness, that I can't escape. I try to speak, I need to speak, to ease this burden. But you seem not to understand. I hear my words being twisted around me, until I can no longer remember what I said. I must be afraid.

Subscribe to this RSS feed. Wednesday, 22 January 2014 13:52. 1-2-3 Magic: Effective Discipline for Children 2-12, by Thomas W. Phelan. Written by Samantha Loewen. The two main principles of this method involve two parenting 'rules': no talking, and no emotion. Phelan. Agree that when a parent is reacting to their own emotions, yelling at or spanking a child can become very dangerous. The other mistake is talking too much, or trying to reason with a child who is either incapable of understanding reas...

Just Checking In!

http://www.pinkbears.ca/index.php/item/558-just-checking-in

Monday, 25 January 2016 22:42. Hello Blog, remember me? It has been so long, I actually had to wander the back end of this site - refamiliarizing myself with how this whole thing works! It took me awhile to figure out how to post a photo. But here we are! We have no huge changes to report - Brian is still working from home, and that has been fabulous! We have been reading the Chronicles of Narnia to her before bed each night, and she loves it! On a personal note, I have been. good? Div align="center" a h...

Displaying items by tag: Potty Training. Subscribe to this RSS feed. Thursday, 02 July 2015 16:46. By George, She's Got it! Early last month I ran out of excuses and finally decided to try again - potty training Audrey, that is. We had started talking to her a bit about it, and when we asked if she wanted to be a 'Big girl', wear panties, and pee in the potty, she occasionally responded positively, which was an improvement over her responses last fall when we had begun our first disastrous attempt. We th...

And the Day I DID Give Up...

http://www.pinkbears.ca/index.php/item/543-and-the-day-i-did-give-up

And the Day I DID Give Up. Wednesday, 10 September 2014 11:31. And the Day I DID Give Up. Peeing in the toilet, though? She wouldn't do it. Anyway, here is basically how our 'Day 4' went:. I hired a babysitter for the day because I was scheduled to babysit my friends' daughters, and I wanted to be able to spend the day entirely one-on-one with Audrey, so the babysitter came and did her best to keep all three girls entertained while I spent my day next to Audrey. Brian came upstairs at around 2:30, and af...

Potty Training Round 2

http://www.pinkbears.ca/index.php/item/539-potty-training-round-2

Potty Training Round 2. Tuesday, 02 September 2014 20:26. Potty Training Round 2. Nearly two years ago, I embarked - suddenly - on the potty training journey that would have Clara (almost) potty trained in less than a week. We decided to potty train her at about 21 months because she was interested, and her baby sister was due to be born only a few short weeks later and so we decided to get 'er done! Quite out of the blue, I had received an email. That is the last diaper my baby will (hopefully) ever wear.
