We are on our 2nd month of Ranger Rick and my 9 year old son loves it!

One of the skills from high school I use most is typing... which I took on a basic electric typewriter, talk about old-fashioned. A keyboard is a keyboard. No matter how the various things attached to it change, the keys are still in the same place! .
Only until the powers that be can figure out a "better" arrangement of the keys! j/k

We are doing cursive learning this year ( 3rd grade) and I am glad that I waited. I pulled him last year from ps in the middle of 2nd grade and he had no cursive training at all. The schools here no longer teach it :confused:

Thanks for posting this site! It looks promising:)

I am so glad I found this post! I thought my son ( 9) was the only one that was having a spelling problem. I have just purchased AAS level 1 and I am so glad to hear the comments above about it!
Thanks again!

We are able to check out playaways from our library, maybe you can check with yours?

Don't feel bad, I received this text the other day:
"U r a loser!"
From a number I didn't know so at first I thought nothing about it but then I wondered if it was meant for my oldest son as a form of bullying ( he is in ps) so my mommy gaurd went up and I called the number lol. It was some man ( not a boy) that was soooooo sorry cause he had the wrong number!

We had to have one baby tooth pulled because it just would not fall competely out. The dentist did it before I knew what he was doing when I asked him to look at it. ( we were at the dentist for another child). He said "Ok I got it! All better now. Oh and by the way that will be $75.00 please!!
It was a one time thing, all his other baby teeth came out on their own.

The Grand Canyon is a must see!

I would think that you have to have a dessert that would include COOL WHIP!! What is a party without cool whip lol!
-
I see that you have 4 teenagers! This will make the lawn care easy for you! All you need is a lawn mower and a weed eater. Since you have 2 acres I would recommend a gas powered one.

Yes , we will be watching as well!

I am so glad to find I am not the only survivor lover here!!
As for the show last night, EVERYBODY just got schooled on how to keep your numbers up by Parvarti!
If you think about it ...it was a very good move on her part to keep her tribe numbers up and provide safety for herself until at least the final five, instead of playing the idols to only save herself twice! AS long as her tribe stays true! lol
I felt bad for Rubert last night because he was trying to tell them...

I totally agree.Here in our district they are cutting 7 more teachers for next year so the class size is going to get bigger yet again. The district already charges a book rent for each student which can run into the hundreds so where is the money going?

I have boys that will probably never really want to hang out in the mall, but if they did my answer would be NO. Not because of them or because of other kids their age. It would be for the safety factor that so many bad things could happen to them there without our supervision. Like being kidnapped, raped, murdered. Some might say that I am paranoid but that is okay with me.
I still will only let my 8 yr old go to the restroom in public if his older brother can take him in. I read a story years back about a little boy that was stabbed to death in a public restroom at a beach, by a guy flipping out on drugs. His whole family was at the beach but they didn't hear a thing. Very sad story. I would rather be safe than sorry.

Perfect example of groupthink!

Tab was the only one I could think of while reading your post.

My dc of 8 has been doing his own for about a year now. Not that I wanted him to do it, but one day I caught him at it and he does a fine job!
-
Just from reading your signature....maybe it has something to do with the new baby?
BY 2 both of my dc were out of the crib. Maybe some big kid talks may help if they can feel older than the new baby?

"Keep your hands to yourself"
"That is too much food in your mouth"
"Put your phone away"
"Don't you like our furniture?"
"Can I be the parent here today?"
"LOL, then your not REALLY hungry, are you?" ( after offering healthier food than the snack requested because he is "starving"

To me it screams " wedding decoration"!
I would have bought it as well! Have fun with it!

Wow, I can't imagine my toddler being pushed by an older child. I guess I have never had those problems when I my kids were that little. I really can not remember ever having a "problem" with kids at the park. I guess with your toddler situation, I would just stay close enough to him/her so getting pushed was not possible.
My youngest is now 8 and when I take him into the play area ( a very large area with all the equipment and wood chips) he is running between all the different climbing things so quickly that I don't think he would have time to have a problem. About 2 years ago, I opted to sit on the bench and watch, since by the time I got to where he was, he was off to the next item. I know if my son had a real problem with someone at the park he would come and let me know.
I have more problems with adults in our public park with stuff like, littering, not having their dogs on a leash, profanity.

Another vote here for the DS.
My boys have the DS lites. I agree that the games can be more for their age levels. My oldest had wanted a PSP instead of the DS the youngest had a DS already and I refused to buy a different gaming system, because I was not going to spend 3 million in games that only one could play.
Am I making it too hard?
