Before you know it, summer will be here again. If you like to plan ahead, then you should look into popular summer activities that your whole family can enjoy. What can your family do for summer fun? Go outside. Physical activity is essential for good health. Combining physical activity with eating right can help you avoid all sorts of health problems. Besides prevention, physical activity can promote strong bones, build lean muscle, burn fat, and help weight control. In addition, it can improve flexibility, cardiovascular health, and bone and joint development. Children should get at least an hour of active play to maintain good health and the right bodyweight. It seems hard to imagine a bygone era when it was difficult to get kids to come in before dinner got cold. Now parents have a new challenge: getting their kids outside. It’s no easy task dragging kids away from all their fascination with media entertainment. Young children and teenagers can spend the entire day indoors, watching television, using computers, playing video games, or texting on cell phones. Get Out and Have Some Fun Together Summer is a good time to increase physical activity through some form of structured recreational activity. With…

I’m sure that most people like me want a bright white smile for our holiday photographs. So how to do that? Use your whitening toothpaste, gels in trays, messy strips and give up coffee and tea. Ummmm no. Sorry, you do NOT want to see this NaNa without her coffee. Strips do a great job, but I’ve always found that they don’t do as great a job between my teeth, they are also expensive as all get out! No UV lights.  There’s gels, but they usually taste bad and are messy. Plus there is the whole boiling the mouth trays…. yeah I’ve ruined my fair share of those. Whitening toothpaste, good but that’s not a quick fix by all means. I was excited to be given the opportunity to review Dr Whitening Natural Teeth Whitening kit system. This is an all-in-one whitening system. This is really  effective on tobacco stains and coffee stains!! Works for men or women! There are no harsh chemicals either!

Alice and I are at it again with another kids book!! Today we bring you Tough Cookie by Kate Louise & Illustrated by Grace Sandford.  What a sweet book this is!! When this gingerbread man was baked, someone forgot to put in the ginger. He’s made of eggs and cinnamon and flour and butter and sugar, but he’s missing a key ingredient! Without ginger, the gingerbread man feels like he’s not really a gingerbread man at all! He can’t be sold in the bakery, so he lives at the back of the store. And there he causes all kinds of trouble. This gingerbread man eats the baker’s decorating candy. He throws sprinkles across the counter and squirts frosting on the walls. It’s not long before the baker has had enough of the gingerbread man’s mischief and orders him to leave. The gingerbread man realizes he’ll have to change his ways, and the baker decides to help. He teaches the gingerbread man that his ingredients don’t make him who he is—it’s his character that defines him. So the gingerbread man begins to help the baker decorate the other gingerbread men and women. He helps prepare them and makes sure they find…

Venta Airwasher A Gift For The Entire Family! I thought with Christmas right around the corner, I would remind you about the Venta Airwasher. it really is the greatest appliance in our home. I can’t sleep without mine on. It runs 24/7 in our house!! I LOVE my Venta LW45 Airwasher. What is an Airwasher? It’s exactly that!! This amazing Venta Airwasher is compact in size; 17.7″ × 11.8″ × 13″ and yet it cleans and humidifies up to 800 square feet!!! Our Venta LW45 Airwasher is in our bedroom. What a brilliant move that was on our part. The first thing we noticed is the difference in how much dust is NOT present in our bedroom. I’m talking a dramatic decline in dust.The Airwasher works without filter pads. Dry indoor air is drawn into the appliance and passes through the disk stacks rotating in water. The air is literally washed. Impurities in the air, stale tobacco smoke, household dust, pollen and allergens are trapped in the water. Only clean, humidified air evaporates. The Venta Airwasher works on the principle of natural evaporation which is widely recognized as the best method of humidification. No ions, no ozone, no white dust;…
