Backpack Safety For Kids

In the US, more than 40 million students carry backpacks. About 20 million carry in those packs more than the recommended weight. This backpack “overload” sent over 3,000 children, ages 5-14, to hospital emergency rooms in 2007 for injuries related to backpacks.

These numbers are expected to rise year after year. Children and teens continue to rely on backpacks to carry books, binders, notepads, homework and personal belongings.

Children and Back Pain
Each year I see more and more children complaining of headaches, neck, back and shoulder pain. Studies have shown a direct connection between these complaints and overloaded and ill-fitted backpacks. The body has to compensate for the change in its center of gravity caused by the backpack’s added weight. The spine in particular is affected as it twists and bends to reposition.

Scoliosis
Even thought there is debate over the causes of Scoliosis, one common agreement is that it can be caused from consistently overloading a spine, especially if it is overloaded in an uneven pattern, which commonly happens with children wearing backpacks. Once Scoliosis occurs in a child it can be very difficult to deal with and correct.

The smartest way to handle Scoliosis is to prevent it. Do no carry too much weight for long periods of time or any uneven weight and have regular spinal checkups by your family Chiropractor to ensure proper spinal function. This is especially important for developing children because as the spine grows it can be easily manipulated in the wrong directions, backpacks, poor posture and certain lifestyle habits can distort the spine.

Rucksack Palsy
Another problem associated with backpack overload is a condition called “Rucksack Palsy.” A heavy backpack causes the shoulder straps to compress delicate nerves, arteries and veins that pass underneath. This can lead to numbness and tingling in the arms.

Help Is on the Way
The American Chiropractic Association has developed a Backpack Safety Program for children in an effort to raise the awareness to the health dangers overloaded backpacks can present to children.

Protecting your child’s spine is extremely important, especially during adolescence. I feel strongly about backpack safety and volunteer to go into schools and individually teach the students and teachers about the health effects of over weighted and ill-fitted backpacks.

Start your own yoga studio

So it is in your mind and you are going for it – set up your own yoga studio business that is. Nevertheless it’s a new business for you – you’ve in no way done it before and you need a helping hand, little by little to reach your objective. No worries we will cover all the help you will need.

Accordingly how do you run a new venture? You have always been the one who is told what to do. Right away the shoe is truly on the other foot – you bestow the orders now. However what orders do you give to your staff? What tells do you send out? How do you realize if what you are doing or saying is the appropriate thing for your new yoga studio business? It was stress-free before…the boss spoke…and you carried out what he/she said then you got remunerated at the end of the day. This is a little trickier, if you get things off beam now, not only will you not get remunerated (or get remunerated less), your lack of decisiveness could impact detrimentally upon your staff.

This is finally it; you have made the jump and you are running your own business. This is the moment in time when you need to really focus on what you want for your business and your way of life. Try to keep the two at a distance as much as possible…this can be really challenging for most people in particular if you now work from home. Bear in mind though the main of working for yourself was to better your life in it’s entirety. Do Not let the new business be a heavy burden to carry…it is there to get you the rewards you have always wanted.

Although, of course, the money helps!

For your own self respect; imagine the feeling you have compared to being in an everyday employment or no employment at all. It is a lot more simpler to get out of the sack at daybreak knowing you are constructing a business for yourself and your folks; you’re doing it for your boss – who you might not even get on with.

We live in a big world; their are thousands of yoga studio businesses – but they aren’t all the same; as a new businessman/woman it’s your occupation to run your business the most professional way you see fit via your experiences you have acquired in life so far.

Not many people start their own business – most people do not have the knowledge. The question is do you have it? Are you motivated to be a success in business as well as in life?

Start your yoga studio business now!

First Aid For Kids

You are out with the kids and suddenly one of them stops breathing. What do you do? Major panic and helplessness can immediately set in. This will bring about no help to the one that really needs some fast thinking. What is needed is for fast action to kick in from the adult(s) or even older kids. Someone calls 911 (this may mean running a ways to get a signal). Determine if is there is a pulse and start CPR. Sounds very complicated. Well, is really is not. All you need to know how to do is basic CPR. You will automatically stay calm when you what to do to help.

Here are some of the common extreme emergencies that may arise:

– External bleeding that is easily stopped
– Stopped breathing (choking)
– Internal poisoning

With these life threatening events, you may be the first responder.

With external bleeding, you must do everything you can to stop the flow of blood. Take charge. Send someone to call 911 or get help if very close. Keep the victim laying down. Try to stop the bleeding by applying pressure (try to avoid direct contact with blood).

Know CPR. Take a class from your local Red Cross. There is also many local organizations that teach and certify for basic CPR (fire departments, YMCA, etc).

Have a basic first aid kit with you. Someone usually has day pack when you go off the beaten path where not a lot of people are seen. Make it standard practice to take a first aid kit with you in that day pack. Carry one in the car. And have one in the house.

You can turn this very serious issue into a family activity. You can make a very good first aid kit with a lunch box and some store bought items (most you may already have at home). It is a great time to spend time with the kids while talking about what to do in an medical emergency. You can certainly tailor the discussion depending on the age of the kids. I have heard more than once when a 3-4 old saves their mom or dad by knowing to call 911 if they see someone hurt or not breathing.

Try taking a CPR/AED and first aid class as a family activity. You will be amazed on the interest you will get from the kids. Always remember that panic can easily be replaced with calmness when you know what to do in an emergency.

Learn Spanish For Kids

Can you tell me the best way to learn a new language? The one that’ll work all the time, every time? The method that will enable you to learn a language, speak it fluently and keep that skill embedded in you for life?

Its easy guys – Just start learning it when you’re a child!

Now admittedly, that’s probably not going to help you much unless your under five reading this, or you’ve mastered the art of time travel. But if you’ve got kids, you should definitely consider a “learn Spanish for kids” program of some kind for them.
Did you know that learning a language happens without any effort whatsoever between the ages of 1-12? Makes you kind of envious of kids doesn’t it. And they not only get the obvious benefits of being fluent in a second language, but lots of other perks too. According to experts, children who are exposed to a foreign language from a very young age (the younger the better) tend to also display qualities like:

* advanced reading and writing skills
* richer vocabulary
* increased cognitive ability
* increased maths and English skills

There are some very good online packages around that will help your kids learn Spanish. You can get CD’s of singalong songs, DVDs of cute TV shows and vocabulary building clips, fun interactive games, story books to make bedtime reading a multilingual experience, and much, much more. Learning Spanish, for kids, is exactly the same as learning English. They only need to hear it spoken around them, and to be asked for the names of objects so they’ll repeat it for themselves. They need to be immersed in the language so that the sounds and speech patterns become familiar to them.

Your child will be at a massive advantage if one of the parents is already proficient in Spanish. A very simple way of raising your child to be bilingual is for one parent to speak in English all the time, and for the other parent to speak in Spanish all the time. Day-to-day interaction, equally in both languages, will very quickly enable your child to switch between the two languages with ease, which is a skill that most of us adults can only dream of having!

This method tends to works best if used straight away, from birth or when your child is just starting to learn to understand speech and copy words. However, if your child is already speaking fluent English and you want him or her to learn Spanish, too, it’s not too late! You just want to make the experience as fun as possible. Check out some online “learn Spanish for kids” programs and courses, and make lessons an exciting and enjoyable part of your child’s daily routine. Play games, read books, sing songs and practice simple conversation together. Come up with a fun way to memorize and test vocabulary, whether that’s using some interactive software, or just making it into a game.

Be creative! If the child’s enjoying it, they’ll see learning Spanish as an exciting activity that they want to keep returning to on a daily basis. And the benefits of fluency in Spanish will be with them for the rest of their lives!
