Make Yarn Balls for a Kid Rainy Day Activity
Make Yarn Balls for a Kid Rainy Day Activity
By Nancy Johnson
Rainy days can become boring for children, especially when they cannot go outside to play for quite a while. Have them make their own fluffy yarn balls that they can use indoors. All you need is four ounces of yarn, cardboard, 12” piece of string, and scissors.
The first thing you’ll need to do is have kids draw a circle 8” in diameter with a compass or protractor. An 8” plate or pie pan will work for a circle pattern also. Draw a 3” circle in the center of the 8” circle. Make two of these circle patterns. For both patterns, cut out the outer circle, cut a slit across one side to the inner 3” circle, and cut the 3” circle out. The pattern will look like a ring.
Roll the yarn into small balls that will fit through the 3” center circle. Place the two patterns on top of each other with the slits on opposite sides from each other. Wrap the yarn around the outside of the cardboard and through the center hole. Continually wrap the yarn around the cardboard ring, keeping the yarn at the center straight. Wrap several layers of yarn around the cardboard.
Holding the yarn through the center hole with one hand, locate the outer edge of the cardboard through the yarn with the other hand. Once you locate the outer edge of the cardboard, carefully cut the outer rim of yarn. Slip the piece of string down between the two cardboard pieces and encircle the cut yarn. Pull the string tightly and tie the ends. This is the most difficult step for kids, so have the pair with a friend to assist with this process of tying the yarn ball.
Carefully remove the cardboard, cut off the long ends of the string, and trim the yarn ball if necessary. Now the kids have their own indoor ball to play with. These yarn balls can be used like beanbags to play indoor basket throw, toss and catch games, and indoor relay games. This kid rainy day activity will keep them busy for hours.
As a mother, grandmother, and child development professional, Nancy Johnson, shares over 20 years experience working with children and planning activities on her website, Creative-Child-Activity-Notebook.com. Check it out for more school age child activity ideas including party, outdoor, summer, nature, and child learning activity ideas.

Bra Inserts - Instant Breast Enhancement Without Surgery
Bra Inserts - Instant Breast Enhancement Without Surgery By Cassandra Haley
Some women may feel uncomfortable with their breast size - especially when they seem a bit smaller to be sexy. There are ladies would want to go under the knife to add a cup size or two to their breasts. A bit expensive? Probably. Not to mention painful.
But did you know that there is another way to increase your bust size without actually having to undergo operation? It's fast, cost-effective, painless and gives you instant results - the bra inserts.
Bra inserts are made to be placed inside your bra. They give you the instant push-up you want, and creates a deeper cleavage in seconds. All you have to do is position them inside your bra, under your breasts, and let them do magic for you.
Bra inserts may come in various types. Most common are the silicone bra inserts. Many women buy silicone bra inserts because they feel natural against your skin. They also follow the breasts' shape so the inserts aren't noticeable. Other bra inserts also have air or water inside, which also follows the natural shape of the breast.
Hot in the market right now are waterproof bra inserts. These breast enhancers may also be made of silicone. Many women prefer this kind of inserts because they can wear them under their swimsuits. See, even in bikinis you can get the push-up and deeper cleavage you want, thanks to these swimwear inserts.
There are also those bra inserts that have nipples shaped onto them. It makes your breasts look perkier and, at the same time, adds a cup size to your busts. Many women like this kind of bra insert because they feel that it looks more natural than the common silicone inserts.
Bra inserts are the best solution for women who are insecure of their breast size, yet are afraid to undergo operation for breast augmentation. The results are instant and definitely painless. And because they're made to give you a natural-looking lift, no one will notice you're wearing one underneath.

Discover How Exercise Can Give You Relief From Back Pain
By Samuel Cise
If you're looking for information on how you can treat back pain by using exercise then this article will be of interest to you, in this article we will look at who is affected by back pain, how exercise helps to treat this condition, and what is involved in back pain exercise. By the time you've finished reading the information presented in this article you will have a good understanding of how to rid yourself of this condition.
Now before we go into any specifics let's talk about who back pain affects. You probably won't be surprised to learn that back pain is suffered by many people all over the world. Approximately 80% of the American population will suffer from this type of pain at some point in their lives. As a result it is a good idea to get clued up on how to treat this problem. Now there is a myth about back pain, and that is most people think that the best method of treatment is to take a long rest in order to resolve the problem. Unfortunately this does not work, in fact it may make things worse, what is needed is exercise. Now that you know who is affected by back pain lets take a look at how exercise helps to treat this condition.
Exercise is a very good method of treating back pain for quite a few reasons. Firstly it helps to strengthen the muscles in the back that support the spine, it also keeps these muscles supple. As a result this will relieve back pain in that area. Furthermore exercise can also help you to balance out your core muscles and this eliminates lower back pain because this often occurs as a result of an imbalance in these muscles . When most people suffer from back pain the first thing they do is stretch in order to get rid of it, nine times out of ten they don't get the results they expected. This is because there are certain specific exercises that should be done to treat the problem not just any old stretches, and these must be carried out correctly. If you suffer from back pain it is a good idea to seek the advice of a physiotherapist because he will be able to tell you which exercises are best to treat your type of pain. Now that you know how exercise helps to treat this condition lets take a look at what components are involved in the actual exercises.
There are various components that are involved in the exercises that you can do to treat pain in the back, one of them involves stretching. This is very effective because it improves the flexibility and the mobility in the back. Stretches alone can relieve back pain to a degree however in order to feel to get rid of it completely you may need to carry out the stretches for a few months. Another component of exercise to relieve back pain are strengthening exercises. A lot of the time pain in the back may occur as a result of too much stress in one particular area, so strengthening the muscles around that area may be the solution to eliminating the pain, if this is the case a physiotherapist will recommend a strengthening exercise.
Now that you have read this article you should know what percentage of the population are affected by back pain at some point in their lives, how exercises help to treat back pain, and some of the main components involved in the exercises.

Bicycle Trailer Review
Bicycle Trailer Review
By Ivan Makenan
This article will give you useful bicycle cargo review; one of the very useful utility for a bicycle that will allow you to carry cargo that you can't carry using a bicycle rack. Transporting a cargo using a bicycle is not a problem with the invention of bicycle trailers. These trailers are usually nothing but a wheeled frame without any motor. This is attached to a bicycle; expanding its capacity of carrying luggage. It is far more powerful and useful than a bicycle rack since it can tolerate approximately half a ton weight. It can be used to transport objects measuring up to 3 cubic meters.
Major Components of a Bicycle Trailer
A bicycle trailer is a separate utility and has got many vital components like:
* Axle: Just like a bicycle, a trailer has got separate axles for its wheels. Threaded nuts are usually used to mount these axles on to the frame of the trailer. Technically, the base of the carrying area of a trailer is kept below the axles in order to decrease the centre of gravity.
* Frame: The frame of a trailer is either a metal frame of a wood frame. If metal frame is being used, it uses aluminum or steel alloy. Another rarely seen frame is the wood frame. Usually bamboo and other materials are used in these frames.
* Mud Guard: An optional facility that some trailers may provide for keeping the dirt and other road sprays out of the luggage loaded on the carrier.
* Wheel: Wheels used in trailers are usually ordinary bicycle wheels of varying sizes. In order to provide effective suspension for the luggage, Pneumatic Tires are used. Dolly wheels are also considered to be very durable but they bring the disadvantage of rough ride because of the limitation of diameter.
* Hitch: Some trailers, depending upon their type; single wheel or two wheels, use various frame hitches. For instance, a single wheel trailer uses a hitch that can be attached to the rear axle of the bicycle. Whereas, hitches for a two wheel trailer have to use a special universal joint to keep the trailer always in the upright position.
Two Major Types of Bicycle Trailers
Various trailers are used for varying purposes. You can distinguish between various types of trailers with respect to their number of wheels, the potential cargo they can carry. Some trailers have got one wheel mounted on the rear axle of the bicycle. The best advantage it provides is the stability in comparison with a two wheel trailer. It offers high speed as compared to two wheel trailers.
On the other hand, you have two wheel trailers which don't provide you with the speed that a single wheel trailer provides but offers much more carrying capacity. However, since it is wider than a single wheel trailer, the probability of hitting objects while riding is greater.
You can also divide trailers in to various types depending upon what they can carry. For instance, some trailers are meant for carrying general cargo while others are used to carry little passengers as a cargo or as a rider. It can also be used for disabled passengers or for pets. The use differs from person to person.

The Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer
The Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer
By Sean Hawthorne
The Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer has been a major hit! People can't stop talking about the astounding author and her four books that have struck the world like a tornado. She has found a way to touch her readers of all ages and has also managed to keep the suspense rolling by writing not only Twilight, but a complete saga with sequels including: Eclipse, New Moon, and Breaking Dawn. These books make you want to be in the role of the lead character and find your prince charming, who ends up not a revolting toad, but a blood thirsty vampire named Edward. Fantasy meets Romance novel meets Horror story and then some more! You can never seem to set it down or get off the edge of your seat. Yes, it truly is that good! It is also becoming a major motion picture on December 12th 2008.
This is a quote by Stephenie Meyer from her first book Twilight:
"Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars-points of light and reason... And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I could not see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything." - Edward Cullen (Stephenie Meyer)
As you can see, Stephenie Meyer finds a way to entice you with almost every word. She brings you into her world and simply do not want to leave.

A Brief History Of The Christmas Tree And Ideas To Keep The Traditions Alive
A Brief History Of The Christmas Tree And Ideas To Keep The Traditions Alive
By Dana Plazyk
We may think the tradition of the Christmas tree started with Christmas, but factually, different cultures have been placing evergreens in their homes and on their doors and windows during their winter solstice for thousands of years. Evergreens had special significance to ancient peoples. They offered protection from evil spirits and the guarantee that warmer weather and green plants and crops would always return. 16th century Germans are credited with the first Christmas trees, but, however, it didn't become fashionable in the United States until 1846, when Queen Victoria and the royal family were sketched standing around a decorated Christmas tree. In the need to be fashionable, wealthy East Coast Americans followed suit and the tradition was embraced in America.
When you trim your tree this year, consider paying homage to the old, old traditions. German "tannenbaums" held real tin "tinsel" and fruits of all kinds, especially apples which referenced the tree as the "tree of knowledge" in the Garden of Eden. Since fresh fruit won't stay that way for long (and unlike old Germany, we tend to decorate our trees long before Christmas Eve), look for high quality artificial and decorative fruit from a floral supplier. Marzipan is a fruit shaped German confection (you can get these artificially as well) that looks great on a tree. Place it next to gingerbread cutouts, and blown glass ornaments-also German originals. Since today's tinsel can look a little stringy, try finding punched-tin garland or ornaments to represent the original tin decorations. Before electricity German families used candles to represent the light of the night sky shining through the tree branches. Today, you can find many authentic looking candle-shaped lights that clip on the branches, just like the candles of old.
And you may think that artificial trees are a late 20th century phenomenon, but you'd be off by about 100 years! The Goose Feather tree was originally invented in the 1880's in Germany to combat the damage being done to fir trees in the name of Christmas. Now of course, we have Christmas tree farms, but consider using decorative feathers in your tree or make a festive feather tree as a table topper. Fast forward to 1930, where in America the Addis Brush Company created the first artificial "brush" trees, using the same machines that made their toilet brushes! Now that's multi-purposing! These trees had a definite advantage over feather trees as they would hold heavier decorations and ornaments. Today, there's an array of artificial Christmas trees, often pre-lit than can be used from year to year.
So whether you go traditional or modern, real or artificial, it's always good to have an appreciation for the origins and history of this icon of the Christmas season.
