In terms of finding solutions, how to mould the problem to be a solution.

Concrete has been blamed for aggravating flooding.

How about concrete that can absorb the flood water?

This works great for future developments, but what about the current ones?

Its Practice

Icing Piping Nozzles Practice Drawings Board Cake Pastry Beginner Practice Paper Fondant Decorating Including 23 Popular Patterns

We were watching a video of huge number of people moving in formations , finally to make a flag. I expressed my amazement. /my child goes "Its practice".
I knew where she got that from.
I have told her many times that she's frustrated learning new skills that it takes practice. Parenting is filled with these daily diamonds.

When we were little, in a crafts class , we had to make stitches of different knid on a piece of white cloth. Here's a practice paper for beginners to  learn fondant decorating with different patterns.

Ballerina Unicorn

Bearington Dreamer White Plush Stuffed Animal Ballerina Unicorn in Pink Ballet Outfit, 14 Inches

I was surprised to find that this Unicorn is a Ballerina. Now thats too much pressure to be both a unicorn and a ballerina. With 'My Little Pony' most kids get introduced to the unicorn characters, where the preference for color moves to the preference of character that matches that color. For example Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and so on. This little ballerina reminds of you of the friendly Angelina Ballerina and still is unique with its pudge quotient ideal for infants.

How those pretty plates are made

Dixie Everyday Paper Plates,10 1/16" Plate, 220 Count, Amazon Exclusive Design, 5 Packs of 44 Plates, Dinner Size Printed Disposable Plates

The design walks onto a Dixie plate.

Something to show kids.

If they pay attention and learn that 600 dishes can be made in a hour, ask them how long does it take to make a dish with this machine.

After looking at this video, my spouse figured why we got some Corelle plates at a discount. The design was a little off. In a hurry? to get onto a Dixie plate?

Melissa & Doug Princess Design Activity Kit - 9 Double-Sided Plates, 4 Colored Pencils, Rubbing Crayon

This is avery fun activity kit. If you have ever shaded a paer on a coin and seen the mark or done imprinting of barks on a paper and felt the thrill of transferring the exact shapes of a thing, you will love this. And now no paper goes scrap.
Just place the paper in the center, when you move the crayon along on the paper, the outlines of beautiful princess are transferred onto the paper, which you then color to make a facsimile of the world known Disney princess following their uniform or you cna give them new outfits based on your creativity.
At first I wondered, if it was play dough based. Thankfully it is not. Its much more fun.

Decorations that you can take home

Recently, a friend had a themed party of Airlines for her child's birthday party. I was amazed at all the inflatable planes hanging down the ceiling.

I was surprised to see my child walk in with one of those planes. How cool is the idea of sending decorations as party favors.

Atelic goals

It is important to have some some atelic goals too.

Sarah refers to the Rubicon myth in the article.

Once we were going up a mountain in a free style hike. Half way up, one friend felt very scared, we had to turn around. It is then I realised how difficult it is to come down than go up. I almost lost my perch once. But that day i learned how it is important to be safe too.

What is thru-hiking?

Anxious about missing something?

While talking to a friend, I realised I was gettling late to a group exercise. The matter was important enough to continue talking. Stretched to this limit, I realised I didnt have to fret too much as I could join the group in the middle and finish the moves I missed by replaying the DVD.from the beginning. I cant recall wher I read this, but how modern technology has helped art reach the masses. Earlier, you had to be at the opera to catch the music but now the storage helps you catch it even when you are not there.

Decision Making

If you are being given options to decide, look out for the ones that are being taken off the table by the option giver's premature decisions. Disparate Impact Doctrine.
