School Age-July 2017

Hooray it’s summer! We have had a fantastic start to our summer break!  This has been a very busy month filled with so many different activities and games.

The School Agers and Preschoolers watched a movie together on our movie day. We also started our water days; we all get so soaked and muddy!
Our first field trip we went on was to Kildonan Park; even though it was raining we all had a blast. We did some exploring, playing on the structures, doing lots of games, and visited the ducks.

We brought in our bikes and helmets and had 2 bike days! MPI even came to the Centre and set up an obstacle course for us to use with our bikes; we also learned proper bike safety and the rules of the road.

We had summer games week in the School Age Room, so we created our own GIANT Candy Land board game. We had set it up so each square was a different exercise move; we all worked up a sweat. We also hosted a gym riot for the School Agers and Preschoolers, everyone got involved and had a blast.
The School Agers baked lots of different goodies and had a bake sale right outside the Centre. They did everything on their own! We raised 200 dollars for the Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter! GO TEAM!

We had  Mad Science come to the Centre to show us science experiments. We watched what happens when hot and cold water is mixed with dry ice. We also got a special treat at the end.  It was great!

Giving your baby a bath

Time it right: Don't give your baby a real bath until the umbilical cord stump falls off. Sponge baths are okay until then. Gather supplies: A baby tub (or just the sink), a washcloth or two, cotton balls (optional), baby soap, a towel, and a fresh diaper. Get ready: Heat the room if it's chilly, and run an inch or two of warm water (about 90 degrees Fahrenheit) into the tub or sink Take the plunge: Undress your baby and gradually place her in the tub on her back. Support her head and neck with one hand. Keep her comfy: Gently pour cupfuls of water over your baby's body throughout the bath so she doesn't get cold. Clean all over: Use a washcloth, cotton balls, or your hand to gently wash your baby's face and body. No need to scrub or use much soap. Read More

Why Healthy Teeth Are Important

How does taking care of your teeth help with all those things? Taking care of your teeth helps prevent plaque , which is a clear film of bacteria sticks to your teeth. After you eat, bacteria go crazy over the sugar on your teeth, like ants at a picnic. The bacteria break it down into acids that eat away tooth enamel, causing holes called cavities. Plaque also causes gingivitis (say: jin-juh-vi-tis), which is gum disease that can make your gums red, swollen, and sore. Your gums are those soft pink tissues in your mouth that hold your teeth in place. If you don't take care of your teeth, cavities and unhealthy gums will make your mouth very, very sore. Eating meals will be difficult. And you won't feel like smiling so much. Before Toothpaste Was Invented We're lucky that we know so much now about taking care of our teeth. Long ago, as people got older, their teeth would rot away and be very painful. To get rid of a toothache, they had their teeth pulled out. Finally people ...

Use of Cough medicines takes away the lives of 5 kids

A sad and shocking announcement made by The Belgian Pharmaceutical Group UCB SA on March 7 2008, has aroused a huge storm among people. As per them their popular cough medicine by the name of Tussionex has taken the lives of 5 kids who were suffering from rigorous cough due to off beam use. This pharmaceutical group has also put forward an admonition among all doctors and medical practitioners to examine their patients thoroughly before prescribing this drug. Eric Miller who is the UCB SA presenter told the media that the cough medicine Tussionex Pennkinetic Extended-Release Suspension is a much stronger drug in nature. It is mainly meant to be use for the adult person and for the children of the age of 6 years or older than that. So it can well be understood why it took away the lives of those innocent kids. Miller also stressed on the point that the company has got the Tussionex manufacturing authorization since 1987. Authoritarian experiments under all circumstances and studies have...
