Banana a Day Keeps The Doctor Away

Contradict from the saying that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Well, bananas are way more than better than apple because it contains more nutrients and vitamins. And that should keep our kids healthy and delightfully strong kids. Don’t you know that it contains twice carbohydrates from apple and five times vitamin a and iron? This is why eating banana everyday keeps the person healthy and away from sickness. And not to mention that it is rich in potassium and natural sugars. That is why keeping it a habit of eating banana for you and your kids will keep your bodies healthy and more glowing. So, start eating banana everyday.

Teriyaki Terrific Turkey Burger!

Nom nom.. yummy, and I hear my stomach say yum! Burgers are one of the foods that is easy to prepare for the kids and the ones that they will dig into it. But it would be so much fun if we have a teriyaki turkey burger style like the picture below. Actually my mouth is watering right now to eat one. It seems so delicious and kids will yearn for more. Turkey meat is really good for the kids because it is good in vitamin b, good source of protein, get your kids protected from cancer by eating it, less saturated fats which means good for the heart, and helps kids who have difficulty in sleeping to sleep well. So, I say yes to a teriyaki turkey burger!

Find the Right Sunscreen For Kids This Summer

I love summer and kids also love summer because it means we are heading to the beach anytime we want to. The heat of the sun is burning and it’s just so fabulous to soak in the sea or in the pool to cool down our bodies. And this means we have to apply sun block to our kids and our skin also. But have you heard about the warning that the EGW have posted? EGW is Environmental Working Group which has a mission to use the power of public information to protect public health and the environment.  They have said that when choosing the right sun blocks for our kids we should look at the ingredients and be careful to look at these Mineral sunscreens with ingredients like zinc and titanium, no oxybenzone (this is linked to hormone disruption), no Vitamin A  which aids to skin cancer and no spray sunscreens or powders.  You can just check out their website for more info about the best sunscreens for your children and also for you. Also remember that babies below 6 months are not allowed to use sun block lotion.

Keep Cell Phones Away From Our Kids

Cell phones have a huge harmful effect on our dear kids and also to us. Cell phones have radiation that long exposure to it can cause brain tumor. I have known someone who was a heavy cell phone user and now he is suffering of glioblastoma multiforme brain tumor. Yikes, sounds bad and not too good. We should take it more cautious when using cell phones. I only use cell phone in emergency cases and I don’t place it near my body when I’m asleep. Definitely minimize cell phone use among children, teens, and pregnant women. Teach your children about harmful effects it can cause to your children so that they will also be aware of it.

When Babies Experience Teething

Teething for some babies may be a painful experience since the gums will cut for the teeth to come out and some babies don’t experience pain at all where their teeth will just appear like nothing happened. Others experience elevation in their temperature, not sleeping well, diarrhea, colds, cough, irritability, drooling, chin rash, biting and gnawing, cheek rubbing and ear pulling. If your baby is experiencing pain during teething cold foods have been found as helpful for decreasing the pain. Chilled applesauce, yogurt and pureed peaches are good rather than giving your baby a plastic teething ring that may have some chemicals on it.

Prevent E. Coli Spread and Ingestion

The Escherichia coli is also known in its short term E. coli. E. coli is a bacteria found in our food, meat, vegetables and fruits. It is a bad bacterium that can cause bad stomach cramps and belly pain, vomiting and diarrhea, sometimes with blood in it that would further lead to death or acute kidney. I have heard of E. coli before and how much it can be dangerouds to our children and our family. That is why we should be more vigilant in buying the food that we prepare in our family. WAth out for undercook foods such as hamburgers and contaminated water and fruit juices that have not went to pasteurization process because it kills the germs other pathogens.

Snacks to Take Swimming

Taking your kids outside the house to have fun with the water and swimming during times where the sun is shining so bright and so hot is great! Since its very hot let your kids enjoy the pool or the beach to exercise their little muscles in swimming but don’t forget to bring foods. But oh oh, many times when were at the beach we grab foods that aren’t actually healthy and won’t be good for our kids bodies. So before we plan of going out the beach or a pool let us be vigilant to keep our children away from unhealthy foods. There are lots of fun ways to enjoy their day with healthy foods such as hard boiled eggs, mixed nuts, fruits and other fun and creative healthy foods that our kids enjoys to eat. Before going out in the beach always be prepared with healthy foods even outside our kitchen.

Is Your Child Using Speed?

Speed here that I am talking about is not about how fast the child accelerates but it is the use of an illegal drug called methamphetamine. Methamphetamine are the successor of amphetamine which was widely sell during 1960’s and 1970’s in the pharmacy but later had been banned due to its addicting side effect to the teens and people those years. Amphetamine were common as speed drug and was taken by people who wants to stay awake and to focus decreasing the fatigue and food appetite. But due to its addicting effect it was prohibited to be used. Methamphetamine is also a powerful addictive stimulant that dramatically affects the central nervous system. Today, our teenagers can be introduced with these kind of substance that may lead them to their own destraction. As their parents, it is our primary responsibility to teach them about substances that are present today and teach them that it can’t do anything good for their future.

Safe Toys For the Kids

We always talk about safe and healthy food for our kids and this time I will share to your about safe toys like Dandelion For Baby stuffed toys which are safe to our babies and toddlers. When choosing toys that are safe for our kids here are some tips that I have learned to keep them happily enjoying their playtime. When buying stuff toys look for that is not made of fabric that should be labeled as flame retardant and opt for a stuff toy that is washable. When toys are painted be careful that the manufacturer had labeled lead-free paint. Look for art materials that have been labeled as non-toxic and crayons and paints have been labeled with ASTM D-4236, which means they have been tested by the American Society for Testing and Materials. A vigilant mommy will always have safe and healthy kids.

Drinking Water is Essential For Your Child

Water is one of the vital needs of one person. One can go without food for how many days but not without water. It aids the blood to transport oxygen throughout the different system in our bodies. Our kids should definitely be trained to drink 6 – 8 glasses of water per day because spoiling a child to drink flavorful drinks instead of water will definitely grow up not drinking enough water that their bodies will need. When I was young I was trained to drink 8 glasses of water per day so that I will grow strong and healthy. Our bodies are composed of 60% water and we need to replace it. Let your kids drink lots of water so that they will be healthy and strong.

Kids are really particular when it comes to what food they put inside their mouth. They don’t eat foods that are not pleasing to the eye that is actually healthy and contains nutrients that their bodies needs which we parents and adults would get annoyed. But don’t be annoyed dear adults because kids will eat the food that you prepared, oatmeal mixed with different fruits that would make them eat it. It is pleasing to their eyes plus real healthy with different nutrients that your kid’s body will ever need as he/she grow up. Keeping your kids eat well and healthy is keeping an extra effort to prepare their food pleasing to their eyes.

I support healthy food especially when it comes to the children. Giving your kids the best of healthy food is making them strong and grows a healthy person. We have known that a healthy person is a glowing person which is also a blooming person. Who wouldn’t want to be that? Of course everybody wants to become a beautiful person. In order to become one, he/she must eat healthy foods like fruits and vegetables. Also eating a whole grain like quinoa in the form of a cake is a terrific choice for little kids.  Quinoa a whole grain that contains amino acid that protein does and is good for a person who has sensitive stomach.

Parents: Think Twice About Trampoline

When I was a little girl I don’t remember I played on a trampoline. With a mother who was always critical about toys and recreational activity that are extremely risky. And because of that I am thankful for a mother who was protective to me. Today, kids have the freedom to play on trampoline without the supervision of their parents which I think is really dangerous. Several reports have been found out that trampoline accident injuries are common in young children. Trampoline related injuries such as sprains to the arms and legs, head injuries and fractures of their arms or legs. It is best as parents to keep our children free from trampoline related injuries by not allowing them to jump and do tricks on trampoline.

No Parents Consent No Picture Taking with Kids

With our technology today, most people even young kids own phones that have camera or a camera itself.  Pictures are taken anytime and is possible anywhere to capture.  So, taking pictures with kids without having their consent are prohibited by the law? Taking pictures are supposed to be capturing moments and these moments are precious to all of us. I do believe that a person who is a pedophiliac has a willful intention to capture a picture of a kid with his camera and have the intention also to harm the kid. I do think that not all people are pedophiles and passing a bill to prohibit everybody to take pictures with kids is not a good idea. I think parents have the responsibility to keep their children safe and educating them not to talk, eat what strangers may give them and go with strangers.

Toxic Chemicals on my Baby’s Crib!

Isn’t it alarming to us parents to know that there are toxic chemicals in our babies’ products? I have learned that 80% of the baby products sold in the market have flame retardants which are toxic to our children and our babies. Flame retardants as the name itself says all the meaning, it basically stops flame to grow when cases that there are accidental fire happens. Flame retardants was made for the benefit of all mankind however it is said that polyurethane foams have flame retardants and these flame retardants releases as the polyurethane foam is eventually used. It attaches itself to dusts when inhaled and eaten causes harm to the body. As parents we should be able to take heed when it comes to buying things for our babies and children avoiding polyurethane foams and asking the manufacturer if they have flame retardants on their products.

Food Dyes and It’s Rainbow Risks to Our Kids

Food Dyes is everywhere like yellow no. 5, yellow no. 6, blue no. 1 and red no. 3. They are found mostly in the food we bought from the market such as the cereals, candies, macaroni, soda, and crackers. These food dyes can offer no good for our bodies and for our kids. Study shows that yellow no. 5 otherwise known as Tartrazine can turn our kids to hyperactive children and other toxic food dyes I enumerated earlier also triggers allergic reactions and worst cancer. It pays to check the label prior to buying them.  Let us prevent our children to suffer the risks of eating food with toxic food dyes.

Potatoes are quite popular and are the most common vegetable that we often eat. And it is one of my favorite vegetable, I love eating potatoes especially when it is cooked as French fries. Everybody loves to eat French fries and potato chips especially our little children.

Your Baby’s First Solid Food

Introducing your baby to a solid food for the first time should start 6 months. Most pediatricians would recommend 6 months but others 4 months- 6 months depending on the baby. Many babies would try to push the first solid food out of their mouth which means that the baby is not yet ready to eat solid foods. Breast milk is still best for babies 12 months and under. If you are introducing solid food to your baby you should still continue breastfeeding him/her. Because breast milk is providing the total nutrition your baby needs. You may introduce foods like avocado, mashed sweet potato and cereal to your baby. It is best not to feed bottled and processed babies solid food sold in the market, to keep your baby healthy and strong.

Picky Eaters

I might say that some kids are really picky eaters. They eat only what they want to eat, especially the ones they love most. I know one kid who only likes to eat fried chicken and not eating the food that her mother prepared. It was just sad since we know that our kids need nutrition the best at their age since they are growing. We, mothers should create something really creative that our child will want to eat the creative food that we prepared. This creative food is the healthy food one that they greatly need in the bodies so that they will grow strong and healthy. Just like this peas that were made fun to eat plus mothers really love it since it is rich in omega 3. So come on now and let us keep our children healthy and happy.

Support the Chemical Regulation

There are toxic effects that certain chemical that most of the products we have seen in the market. Products where they contain chemicals that is harmful to the children and to the pregnant women. If unaware consumers like mothers, pregnant women and fathers bought this kind of product and use it can cause certain diseases and unwanted effects that our children’s health is at risk.  For us, who are parents let us be aware of the food that we purchased at the market if the content of the product is good and won’t harm our children. And let us support the Senate Bill S.487, the “Safe Chemicals Act,” and make a change for our children are our future.

More Onions

I love my kitchen and I love to slice ingredients every time I cook. What I don’t really like is when I chop onions, I usually cry when I do it. I had to admit I love to eat onions but chopping it is the one I hate most. Onions tastes good and the WHO supports that the use of onions is to treat those who have poor appetite. If you have kids who are not eating well, then try to add more onions on the food that you are preparing. Aside from that onions are really good for the heart since it can protect the cardiovascular and it can also prevent clotting in the blood. Onions especially the red onions has good source of  antioxidant which can prevent cancer and other diseases. So what are you waiting for, enjoy the benefits of onion for your kids and you too.
