Barbie, I Can Be- A Pet Vet



Barbie, I Can Be- A Pet Vet (Step into Reading, Step 1) 


What a simple way of letting kids know what a vet does. A career as veterinarian can be very fulfilling for animal lovers. But that is too mouthful a word. The Pet Vet rhyme is briliantly pulled. The books shows all the different kind of cute animals that a vet takes care of. It gives a good idea to kids that a vet treats all pets, big and small. No Horse is too big for a vet. When Barbie learns that she can become a pet vet, kids too get to try being the vet career for size.

Little reader's thoughts:
She liked that Barbie was able to help her pet horse.
She also like
"Hooray for Vets
Hooray for pets"


Vet kits are one way to reel in the little vets. Another fantastic way is this veterinary anatomy coloring book. That should increase their vocabulary too.

How much would you let your scale/ruler change?



The other day my husband told me something about a scale. I found a thing that looke dlike a mini stack of bools, when I expanded it like an accordion ( For some reason, Xylophone was the first word that came to my mind. I came to this strait before, I should have searched and refreshed my memory. I had to look up that word (I couldnt recall Arnold S's name, I could rattle off all the things he did, my brain wasnt even trying to recall the name). While looking up for accordion, I found that there are people searching for musical instruments that start with a particular letter. Who hasnt been there? Most of the times, it turns out that clue is not even right) .




Unlimited Memory: How to Use Advanced Learning Strategies to Learn Faster, Remember More and be More Productive 


Might this book help?

Back to the scale, I tried to look at the hinges, and catch something off to say "Aha, see  now its not a scale, you are getting the measurement wrong". I am sure the designers accounted for the gap. somehow a scale being straight and long is something not to be messed with. But hey, the measuring tape at the tailors that they hang around the neck all the time like a doctor's stethescope, that can roll. The one at the carpenters retracts automatically. So its not that they are immutable.



The joints are probably reverse anthropomorphication.


Now this warping, is this what the genes were doing, trying to get compact? Or they felt twirly like me in the gym room.

With the folding ruler we began with, my daughter made a house.

Doctor's prescription for a walk in bathtub



Deluxe Massage Whirlpool Walk In Tub Door and Drain Location: Right


Will mMedicare cover walk in bathtubs? They have to be proved to be Durable medical equipment coverage. Would it make sense to design something in a way that it restricts usage? How do you make something that is "not usually useful to someone who isn't sick or injured". Well, I can see how crutches or Continuous Passive Motion Machine is something only a person who really needs it will use it, but could we design a bath tub so?
