Fun Tips for Teaching Kids to Read!!
Instilling a love of reading at a young age is imperative to a child’s growth and learning habits. There are many steps that can be taken when teaching kids to read. The following tips make learning to read fun and easy for every child. Engage Children with Words The more a child is exposed to language, the easier reading will become. This can mean anything from singing, talking, cuddling or playing. Any way a child can be engaged with words aids the learning process. A fun game to play involves shopping at the grocery store. Say something like, “we need apples, where are the apples?” The child will look around to find the apples, and this will help to broaden the vocabulary. You can then point these words out during reading sessions. Even walking down the street can be a time for engagement. Point out a man running, or a woman gardening, or any activity that is happening. Always use…

INCREDIBLES 2!! Arriving in Theaters June 15!!
In INCREDIBLES 2, Helen (voice of Holly Hunter) is called on to lead a campaign to bring Supers back, while Bob (voice of Craig T. Nelson) navigates the day-to-day heroics of “normal” life at home with Violet (voice of Sarah Vowell), Dash (voice of Huck Milner) and baby Jack-Jack—whose superpowers are about to be discovered. Their mission is derailed, however, when a new villain emerges with a brilliant and dangerous plot that threatens everything. But the Parrs don’t shy away from a challenge, especially with Frozone (voice of Samuel L. Jackson) by their side. That’s what makes this family so Incredible. I can’t wait for this one!! I wonder if Alice and I can watch this via Facetime together?? Hummmm theater may frown upon that one huh?? I sure miss movie time with Alice.

Why Apps for Kids Aren’t All Bad, and How to Make Sure It Stays That Way
There’s no denying that using apps can be bad for kids. You can say the same thing about watching TV or playing video games, but just like television and video games, apps don’t have to be bad for kids. Especially since there are many innovative ways apps are changing and will continue to evolve over the upcoming years. Less Stress for Mom and Dad One of the big reasons why apps don’t have to be all bad is the fact that they can allow mom and dad to be better parents. By allowing their children to play on an app for a little bit, they have a chance to relax. Many parents make phone calls, catch up on a little work, or jump in the shower while the kids are on an app. Mom and dad need time too, and allowing the children to play apps for a bit while they get some stuff done makes for a less stressed,…
