When I found out how much microwave radiation we were being exposed to with cordless phones and cell phones, I gave them up. Many generations of people did fine without this technology. Wireless is not healthy. Facebook is not necessary.

I second the recommendation to watch this very important film. "Smart" utility meters are being installed on most homes and businesses in the U.S., Canada, Australia, Europe, New Zealand. Most people don't even know they have one on their home. They transmit with very powerful microwave bursts of energy non-stop around the clock. Have you noticed your ears ringing, dizziness, headaches, nosebleeds, body cramps, insomnia, etc. The list of health ailments brought on by these meters is disturbing. Yes, please take the time to watch this movie.

Does anyone know where I may order the Italian language version of Pinocchio (and other books in the Italian language)? I'm in the U.S. I don't want English / Italian versions, just the books in Italian. Also, I want actual books, not electronic books. Thank you.

Thanks for the information and the link.

I had a doctor help with this several years ago. He recommended the following to prevent swimmer's ear: Before the kids go swimming or shower, put a drop or two of baby oil in their ears. (Oil and water don't mix, so the oil coats and protects the ears.) After swimming use a product called "Swim-EAR" - Ear Drying aid. It's mostly alcohol; it drys the ears and probably kills bacteria and such. If the ear is already infected, I personally would see an M.D. asap.

All of the books by Robert McCloskey. My homeschool library would be incomplete without them.

I used to hand write everything. Then I started using Zaner-Bloser.com fonts online (it's free). They have manuscript and cursive and different sizes for different grade levels.

They can teach what they have learned using the manipulatives and games.
