My Sons' Collection

By -
Yahmir is an avid fan of Batman since he was a year old.  He's been watching Batman movies in DVDs every now and then.  I remember when he was 3 years old, I heard him reciting the lines in the movie while watching it, for he already had memorized the lines and sequence of the story (lol).  He had collected numerous Batman action figures and Batman car toys.

JM and Yahmir are also collecting Lego and Mega Blocks.  They are so focused when playing with these building blocks.  It enhances their skill of creativeness, discovery and exploration.

JM is a collector of  Zoids toys, a collectible machine.  These Zoids model kits are deemed to be amazing machines taking animal forms with amazing powers.

Both of them are very much interested in computers, the reason why we put up an ICafe business before, to enhance their computer related skills and JM’s hands-on for his IT (Information Technology) course.  They also have different gadgets from Gameboy to Playstation, Nintendo DS,and PSP.

Video games and computer games are known to improve hand-eye coordination and help players gain many skills. Games induce decision making and tech players to think on their feet. It create team players, hone social skills and teach players problem solving, motivation, and cognitive skills. Most games inspire players to strive and reach more difficult levels presenting challenges at each stage.  However, another house rule is that they can only play these games after they’ve finished their school homeworks and during weekends and holidays only.

They are also animal lovers, we have these dogs that we dearly love.  Pet dogs gives unconditional love.  A dog will also help reduce stress in your life and they are wonderful companions.

At present, they are into collecting Cloud Strife action figures of Final Fantasy and Roxas of Kingdom Hearts.

    i would suggest you talk to your kids heart to heart, explain why you have to work, it does not mean that spending less time with them means you are neglecting them. as i always keep on mentioning in my posts/articles, opening the channels of communication with our kids is very important. kids nowadays are very smart and intelligent, for as long as you build the best bond between you and your children , you will have no fear :)

    this suggestion is based on my humble opinion :)

Clogged drains are typically easy to fix, as we can unclog it physically, chemically or a combination of both.   However, it usually depends on the nature and extent of the problem so before calling on an experience plumber in parramatta , here are some tips that you may try to uncork that clog. The kitchen sink is most often clogged with fats, grease and oils, unplug or remove the strainer, as grease accumulate around the strainer in the sink. Remove and wash away anything that has collected around it.

Flush it with water the next morning.

We want our children to understand the value of money and how it works, but it can be tricky to discuss these concepts without sounding preachy. As a parent myself, I've found that making learning about money fun is one way to get my child interested in the topic without worrying about them feeling like we're pushing an agenda or being lectured at. Here are some fun ways that you can teach your child about money : Let kids invent their own games or create their own money. Let kids invent their own games or create their own money. This works especially well with older children who already have a grasp on financial concepts like spending, saving, budgeting and investing.
