I think the first few chapters would apply to you now and it discusses reading Love and Logic in starting to approach disipline. I read those when my boy was a baby and did use it quite a bit.<br /><br />So far the book, "Wild Things...", has some good points and some very good practiclal applications which I really like about this book compared to some others that give more abstract or theoretical things to try out. <br /><br />My only complaint so far has been that from a developmental standpoint I can really see how almost all of this could apply to girls as well when the book is trying to sell it as specific to boys. That might not necessarily be a bad thing, I don't know. I just know I grew up with a Mom who always questioned why things should be specific to one gender or another and this seems to be one of those things that now sparks that kind of response in me. I hope you do read this one and can come back and give me your opinion on it! <br /><br />I have already started "Last Child in the Woods" and am finding it to be really good.

My boy is more baby than big boy still, but after teaching elementary school, and often getting the wildest of the wild boys, I know how things might be headed. I'll look and see if my library has it.<br /><br />Also, we read "Last Child in the Woods" in LC Grad school (MAT program). Good pick. <br /><br />Emilynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243314124895590838.post-85870634662525621532012-12-02T02:57:04.534-08:002012-12-02T02:57:04.534-08:00In child life from 6-12 month is really very impor...In child life from 6-12 month is really very important. This article related to this stage pleased me. The guideline provided in this article is very much important for child development. This is really awesome writing by the writer for <a href="http://geniuschilddevelopment.com" rel="nofollow">child development</a> and child rearing.

One of the most frustrating things for me was going to the doctor and having him tell me to feed my child ice cream every day and other things with lots of saturated fat and sugar in order to get my children's weight up. I don't feel like in this day and age of type II diabetes in children and childhood obesity giving my children junk food to get their weight up is a good idea. Glad you stopped by! I hope other people check out your food blog for some great healthy recipes!Emiliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17394472747363806112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243314124895590838.post-4778642468499997062012-05-13T12:30:27.636-07:002012-05-13T12:30:27.636-07:00Great idea Emilia, and you are so right about the ...Great idea Emilia, and you are so right about the horrible kids food that is out there. Why can't we be more like the French, eating 'adult' food but in smaller portions with more accessible presentation - like you've done with the apples. Cheaper, healthier and nearly eliminates fussy kids and possibly obesity.

I'm a firm believer that the physical environment, including the sounds in it, does a lot to set the tone for what happens in that space. --StephanieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243314124895590838.post-28117613108976461312012-02-13T00:32:22.759-08:002012-02-13T00:32:22.759-08:00Thanks Linda!

You are inspiring. <br /><br />Interestingly, this morning I woke up the Cat Stevens, "Where Do The Children Play" streaming through my head...my day. Now I read your blog, about children and music!

We also played Sorry a lot, and we played Rummy when we got older. I don't remember 'learning' strategy, but I am a decent strategist, so maybe I did learn while I was playing childhood games. --StephanieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8243314124895590838.post-37209934603506582002012-01-28T10:31:29.188-08:002012-01-28T10:31:29.188-08:00OMSI memberships are wonderful gifts, and very rea...OMSI memberships are wonderful gifts, and very reasonably priced for an entire year of family fun.
