An active preschooler is a preschooler who is learning.  Getting preschool activities for teachers can be a tough task for any principle or educator who is looking to expand their preschool curriculum.  Not only do you need to make sure that the children get the right amount of outside play time, but you also need to make sure that they are doing puzzles and games that challenge their mental capacity.

So what does a preschool teacher do to make sure that the preschoolers are doing the right activities that are challenging and productive?  Well simply, just make sure the children are involved and being engaged at a level that they find interesting and fun. 

Jamie Oliver the British food guru cooked a special dinner for the world’s leaders at the recent G20 summit. He is proud of the fact that he managed to get £1million from the British government to improve school meals. Out with the pizza, chips and sausages and in with salads, fruit, vegetables and lean meats. So, are there foods to avoid ADHD ? There are some foods which are better to avoid as they have indeed been linked with behaviour disorders. Both the UK and the European Parliaments have legislated to that effect.

One of the most respected researchers on ADHD, William Pelham has now come out strongly against ADHD medications and asserts that research shows they are practically useless in the long term. This is just one of the facts about ADHD medications which may or may not get publicity, depending whose website you happen to be visiting. He also claims that fellow scientists were unwilling to acknowledge that there was evidence which showed that the usefulness of ADHD medications was somewhat limited over a number of years.

Hi all

I found the following review of the U-play mat on Woman Tribune website by
Sandie Lee of Family Matters.

Looking for a fun, engaging and educational way to spend time with your child? Then look no further, the U-Play Mat is here. Designed by Pediatrician (and mom of two sets of twins), Dr. Jennifer Canter, or Dr. Jen as she likes to be called, designed the U-shaped mat and accompanying picture cards “with the goal of enhancing interactive floor play between toddlers and parents.”
