golf gifts " are

Arty Golf Gift -- February 02, 2005 Arty Golf Gift I have friends that golf. I don't understand them, but I do love them.And frankly, I'm always relieved by friends that accept "themed gifts" -- justmakes life a whole lot easier. But the golfers are tough because, well... so many " unique golf gifts " are just... cheesy. To find an arty golf gift ? Now THAT's both a rarity and a treasure. Artist Michelle Allen has created just that in her series of whimsical clocks. The golf clock shownhere is obviously golf, obviously arty, and not available at every pro shop on the block. The is the perfect gift for golfers who like independent films, independent bookstores,and Magritte. Why these people golf is beyond my ken, but I'm happy to findan artist who understands them.

Babies are consumers, just like the rest of us. They go through diapers, shampoo , wipes , clothing,booties, toys , and dozens ofother items with abandon. And that makes it a challenge for mom and dad to keeptheir little consumers supplied with all they need. That's why, long ago, someone invented baby showers--and now they're an indispensable tradition. Your sister has her first baby, so you throw a shower because she needs everything ! After outfitting her newborn son, you find out she's having another baby. This one's a girl. Sis needs everything again! There's intense debate about whether baby showers are necessary or appropriate for baby number two, baby number three, and any subsequent children. But when you ask the moms, the response is nearly always the same--showers are appreciated for all babies. In some cases, a baby shower is actually a necessity. Perhaps it's been 10 years since the last addition to the family or maybe there have been so many babies (and so many hand-me-downs) that the revolving collection of baby clothes has just plain worn out. Whatever the circumstances, moms (and dads) like the attention and they want each child to be welcomed as special and unique. Following are some baby gift ideas that lean toward the practical. Nursery Necessities Think useful, not cutesy. Crib sheets , bumper pads , night-lights , and lamps are alwaysappreciated. If you know the room décor, matching pictures and cloth wall hangings are alsoappropriate. Try crib or car-seat toys or soothing lullaby CDs to help babydrift off to sleep. Breastfeeding moms will also appreciate breastfeeding accessories and a nursing pillow . Good, Clean Fun Make a splash with a sweet and practical bath time gift. From the basics to fun extras, you can really put together a fun bath "kit" with a little creativity. Start with skin and hair care products --shampoo, soap, baby oil, lotion, washcloths , and baby powder . Baby willalso appreciate a water-friendly toy ortwo, because after all, bathtime is fun time! Also consider a bath seat to hold babyup in the water, a soft robe or hooded towel, and (why not?) the bathtub itself. Keepsakes--For the Baby withEverything Sometimes parents don't really need a shower. They've already been to the baby store and stocked up on everything imaginable. But you still want to honor the new little one. Photograph albums and baby books withpockets for keepsakes--such as that first lock of hair or the first tooth forthe tooth fairy--might fit the bill. A picture frame isalways a welcome gift, especially since parents will be snapping photos nonstopfor some time to come. Other ideas for the baby with everything are a porcelaincereal bowl or silver-plated keepsake box . Go, Baby, Go Not to be forgotten is the durable goods section (or shall we say, "semidurable," since baby items tend to get heavy use): strollers , car seats , and infant carriers and baby slings . Nearly all mothers will give you a thumbs up if you present a baby swing , which isperfect for soothing and occupying baby while mom is doing something else. Some baby shower hostesses take the practical route and furnish mom with a brand-new--and fully stocked-- diaper bag . Abattle-ready diaper bag comes pre-equipped with baby wipes , diapers, changing pad ,pacifiers, small soft toys ,lotions and powders, and sealable disposal bags for used diapers. Just for Mom Pregnancy is tough on mom, so she'll appreciate a little pampering. Your gift might be to cook dinner in the first week after the new baby arrives home. Or you might give a gift certificate for free baby-sitting, to be redeemed when mom and dad are ready for a night out. Hiring a cleaning service so that the new parents can spend more time with the little one is another nice gesture. Mom might also like personal items such as nightgowns for the hospital, skin care products, and certificates for a manicure or pedicure. And she certainly would appreciate a sampler of vitamins, especially if she'll be nursing her newborn. Baby Registry Finally, shopping from a Babiesrus.com/Amazon.com Baby Registry makes it easy to give your favorite parents-to-be exactly what they want. Youcan search for their registry by name, state, or code. If youlive far away or won't be able to make it to the shower, you can even have thegift wrapped and shipped!

Birthday Present primary math

About Piggy’s Birthday Present home | view cart | top 10 sites | faqs | about us | contact us an engaging language arts and early math program about product standards & skills newsroom request information ordering information printable order form About Piggy’s Birthday Present primary math & language arts Piggy’s Birthday Present uses the timeless activity of dot-to-dot as a format for children to answer mathematics and language arts questions at their skill level. With each click of a correct answer, a portion of a picture is drawn right before their eyes. Once the entire picture is completed, students have the opportunity to color in the picture and place it back on the mural wall. Piggy’s Birthday Present is engaging—not just because the high quality graphics draw students into a magical world...and not just because they become instant artists. Piggy’s Birthday Present is challenging—not just because there are over 50 math and language arts activities...and not just because there are so many treasures to find. Piggy’s Birthday Present is successful because its engaging dot-to-dot format, whimsical environment, and teacher-created activities make building number and language skills fun! Sequenced progression of difficulty Math and language arts materials are presented in a sequenced progression of questions that begins with the simplest of concepts, appropriate for kindergarten children, and gradually becomes more difficult, ending with questions appropriate for second grade. Students first complete the dot to dot, then they get to paint in the picture. When it’s finished, the painting becomes part of a larger mural. Piggy’s Birthday Present keeps students engaged by taking advantage of one of the most important principles in educational psychology—the principle of distributed practice. This learning principle is harnessed systematically in the dot-to-dot activity: children first connect 10 to 20 dots within a picture by answering simple content questions, and then they are given a self regulated break while coloring in a picture. This systematic alternating between content work and art work provides a learn and play , learn and play rhythm that facilitates learning. The best part about Piggy’s Birthday Present is that students set their own pace. If students are experiencing success, they can go straight through all of the exercises and skip the coloring. Or, if studnets need a little more time, they can pause to color in the pictures or even do the same dot-to-dot over again. The opportunity for students to set their own pace increases learning potential. Piggy’s Birthday Present is divided into two realms—one focuses on numbers and number sense, and the other on letters and sounds of the English language. Once children enter the upstairs playroom, they can go down the 1,2,3 slide to play in the math section, or down the A,B,C slide to play in the language arts section. In the upstairs bedroom, student choose between the A,B,C slide, or the 1,2,3 slide. Language arts If children go down the ABC slide, they will find the ABC dot-to-dots. These are language arts activities presented in a series of five large murals, each containing 5-10 dot-to-dot pictures. Within each dot-to-dot picture, children connect dots in response to questions that test their language arts skills over a broad range of concepts including letter recognition and alphabetic sequence. Students then progress through concepts such as letter/sound association, beginning and ending sounds, sight recognition of simple words, spelling, abbreviations, and contractions. Click here to view a chart showing the cognitive framework of language arts skills . Mathematics If children go down the 123 slide, they will find the 123 dot-to-dots. These are set up he same as the ABC side, just using different murals and math content. Math concepts include numeral recognition, number sequence, comparisons of numbers, simple addition, subtraction, and finding the missing addend. Click here to view a chart showing the cognitive framework of mathematical skills .In addition, the numbers in the math dot-to-dot can be heard in several languages — Spanish, French, Chinese (Mandarin), Italian, Japanese, and Indonesian! The first time students slide down the 123 slide they will see this mural. Piggy takes a trip to a farm and meets many new friends: a frog, a cow, a duck, a horse, and even another pig. The easy level teaches students number recognition from 1-10. The medium and hard levels teach students number sequence, 10-20 and 60-100, respectively. Click here to see a skills matrix for the Math Farm Mural. In all, there are more than 2,000 questions dealing with math and language arts that were taken from lesson plans of experienced teachers. When children play with Piggy’s Birthday Present , you can be sure they are practicing skills and concepts that complement your curriculum. Skills summary The Skills Summary feature gives teachers the content description for each mural at the easy, medium, or hard level. Students can work individually or in groups, and student work is always saved and recorded in the Skills Summary after every session. The creators of Piggy’s Birthday Present Piggy’s Birthday Present was developed by ThoughtMakers, a core team of cognitive psychologists, software engineers, graphic artists, and musicians. The program was produced, tested, and modified as part of a research and development effort headed by Dr. J.
