    BabySense V Baby Monitor Review… Buy it!

    By Jacaranda On May 15, 2010 No Comments

    After the highly successful blog post about baby monitor, I decided to write something more about it and this time actually endorse the best baby monitor yet.. after giving a not so bias review about it.

    BabySense V baby Monitor Review… Buy it!

    For a little less than $200, you are giving your baby your love, heart, or eye, or attention by using the Babysense V baby monitor. The BabySense V is a unique Baby Monitor that senses baby’s movement and breathing through the mattress during sleep. That’s how powerful and sensitive the device is at the same time!

    Babysense II baby monitorThe Babysense V has all the important feature that a baby monitor should have but this one is far more advance! It monitors the baby’s movement and breathing! That is super sensitive!

    It’s every parent’s worst nightmare – your baby stops breathing in the night and you don’t notice until it’s too late. The Babysense V is medically proven to help to prevent this by monitoring both your baby’s breathing and movement, and alerting you if it spots any irregularities.

    It will sound a loud alarm to alert parents if baby stops breathing for more than 20 seconds or if the breathing rate drops below 10 breaths a minute. It comes with instructions that explain what you should do if the alarm sounds.

    If breathing sounds are normal it displays a flashing green light to give you peace of mind.

    How Babysense V works

    The operation of Babysense V is by using a large, passive sensor pads that are highly sensitive to even the slightest motion a baby makes. These Babysense V pads constantly monitor a baby’s every movement.

    The motion patterns are transmitted to a compact microprocessor, the Babysense V control unit, where they trigger a flashing green light that is clearly visible from a distance. The flashing green light is the signal that all is well, providing a parent or caretaker with peace of mind. If, for whatever reason, the baby’s movement stops for 20 seconds, or slows to less than 10 movements per minute, an audible alarm will sound. On hearing this alarm, a parent or caretaker is alerted to come to the aid of the sleeping baby.

    Babysense V is not a medical device. Premature and high-risk infants must be under supervision of a doctor or health professional.

    Buy Babysense V at Amazon

    Bullies Target Obese Kids

    By Jacaranda On May 4, 2010 No Comments

    For kids, a few extra pounds may invite trouble from the schoolyard bully. This is what the researchers have discovered that I recently read.

    The study shows or it suggested that just by being overweight, a child has a very big chance of getting bullied. Although there are many factors that play a role of getting bullied, like gender, face or family related, being overweight is still the main reason. Being overweight or obese trumps all those other factors when it comes to aggressive behavior from other children.

    The study found that being overweight increased the risk of being the target of bullying by 63 percent.

    How to Childproof a Bathroom

    By Jacaranda On April 11, 2010 No Comments

    Yet another “How To” post and another “How to Childproof a bathroom” post in the internet. This is not new to anyone who had done their Google search about the topic. These are just the same tips that you can find in various websites that I consolidated here for my own quick reference.

    Tonight, my little boy had an unfortunate accident in the bathroom. He slipped and bump his head causing an inch long wound. We were terrified! It felt like a dream/nightmare! I wanted to wake up but I know I would not, I know that this is real and that I should not panic.

    We brought our son to the nearest hospital/clinic. He got a stitch. He was crying during that time! His crying was unbearable to me and I could not do anything.

    Having an extra activity after school is a good thing for any child. These kind of toddler activities are an excellent source for an extra knowledge and fun!. So, having an extracurricular activity for your child is almost a must!

    What if your son’s school does not offer any extracurricular activities. You are probably be worried of depriving your child of, like I said before, all that extra knowledge and fun. What should you do?

    Most of us parents think that after school activities are always thought in schools. Well, it’s not. After school extracurricular activities need not be taught in a school-like environment by professional teachers in a structured and timely manner.

    There is a lot YOU can do to support your child’s academic, physical and social development. Do not be too concerned about formal programs, as many of our children are already over-scheduled.

    Toddler Reading Activities Suggestions

    By Jacaranda On March 29, 2010 No Comments

    Many parents are worrying that today’s kids are no longer interested in books and in reading. It may sound true in some way, that they maybe swaying away from books but with today’s modern technology, ebooks is a viable substitute for physical books. But still, with so many things, so many activities to do online, it may also be true that kids of today, the toddlers and teens are reading less and less books.

    In a world that is slowly but surely turning away from books and getting glued to monitors or television screens and like I said before, the internet… the importance of having a passion or developing wants for reading cannot be overlooked. Reading is a habit and should be established when the child is relatively young.

    As a parent we are the first person to show our kids the value and importance of reading. We must tell them and make them understand that reading can broaden their mind. What can we do to foster this habit and add reading to their daily activities?
