Kitten wont stop biting or clawing HELP!?

Zel Tokumo

I have had this kitten several months now, I have tried everything the vet and the pet stores have suggested doing.
I have given him more toys
I have given him more attention
I have tried a spray bottle
I have tried clipping his nails
I have tried the anti clawing and biting spray
NOTHING IS WORKING! he has seriously hurt me on several occasions, he has drawn blood and scratched me so bad I have had to get stitches, Today he bit a hole through my lip and I honestly don't know what to do, I know if I take him to a shelter he will be put down for being so aggressive, is there anything anyone can suggest I am at my whits end, I don't believe in declawing or filing down cats teeth i think its barbaric.
I said I was AGAINST declawing.... and please understand I cant just "deal" he is physically harming me, causing me to get stitches and severe cuts and bites.... he is 7 months old.

Answer
I applaud your decision to not de-claw. Even while you're in pain, very nice.

I have four cats. My newest female kitten liked to playfully bite or chew and sometimes grab with her claws on tender skin -- this lasted for a couple months. I was getting concerned, we don't bite or claw in this cat family. I quickly told her (though not sure how much she understood) that this was unacceptable, none of the other cats do this. I tried a tactic that a dog trainer showed me a few years ago for my puppy, asserting your dominance. Your companions must know that you are the Alpha. Not the Master, that title holds no respect. But the Alpha.
Every animal family has an Alpha and to become the Alpha, you must set an example of dominance. For large dogs I was told to (if safe, not an aggressive animal) have the animal (I used this on the kitten) lay flat on the ground, not painfully, just holding her steady so she couldn't stand up, and lay on top of them. Obviously, this is a kitten and you should not put any pressure or weight on her. But lay your body against and on top of her own, maybe holding paws so you don't get hurt. Do this very gently, don't apply a lot of pressure at all, you're getting a point across not harming. Stay there for a few seconds at a time. When she gets feisty and starts grabbing with her claws while you hold her, immediately and gently lay her down, hold her paws for your protection, and be the top dog. You may choose to gently (always gentle, trust is important) scruff her neck like her mother would do if she were to misbehave in her litter.
My kitten would still want to get rough and tag me with her nails, and every time she did, successful or not, I grabbed both paws and held them, spoke softly and petted her gently. She learned quickly that this behavior wasn't acceptable and she wouldn't gain anything by it. Not my blood, my anger, nor my fear. Eventually she stopped. Now this is a kitten I can piss off repeatedly and at most she will gently, with claws retracted bat at me.
The key is if they love, trust and respect you - they wouldn't want to harm you. Some animals play rough, but just the same way, calm them down, hold them and show them that you're the boss. If you can't or aren't willing to risk your body by laying (gently) on her, grab up those paws and just hold her so she can't get loose, never hurting though. I always told mine, "gentle paws, gentle paws" and now she's fine.
It takes time. And patience. And love and kindness and a lot of trust. Always remember, your cat is an eighth your size, and that can be scary and intimidating. Shouting can be scary as well as spanking, that can be traumatizing and lead your cat to never trust you again. Just show him patience and kindness.
Maybe sit in a room with him and make him focus attention on you, just repeatedly bring him down a notch so he can't harm you. if this is an out of control biting and clawing cat, measures may be a little more drastic. Try socks, slip little socks onto those paws while you interact. This could either help you or just annoy your cat.
He could be acting this way for any number of reasons. Maybe he's scared of you and feels that he must defend himself, or just unsure of people in general. His heart can still be won. Just remember how hard it is for you to communicate to him what you want, it's that hard or harder for him to tell you what HE wants. Also, nail clipping can be unpleasant for both parties involved. You should just get a scratching post or emory board or something similar for him to scratch, it's his natural instinct to scratch and clipping nails doesn't actually do very much, they actually lose the entire nail periodically as new ones grow in and clipping probably doesn't make his scratches hurt any less but I can promise you it probably scares the hell out of him.
Just always keep your patience and your kindness. This is an animal with free will, ruled by no one. Should he grow to love you it could be a beautiful thing.
i've had dogs and cats, but no dog was as loyal as my felines.

Zoo Animal Toy Ideas?

Eva

So I'm an intern at the zoo and one of the projects that I have to do is make a creative toy/enrichment item (something they will find entertaining) to give to one of the animals I work with. I really want to make an impressive toy but so far my mind has been drawing a blank about what to give them. Here's a little bit of info about each of the animals I work with:

Polar bear: her current toys are thick plastic blocks (think giant ice cubes), balls, burlap sacks, thick ropes, and thick plastic rings. She really likes peanut butter, honey, yams, and obviously meat. Sometime we will give her pine cones covered in honey and she loves them. She has a large pool in her exhibit and also a large grassy area. There really are no limitations in terms of the material the toy I can make her. During christmas she gets christmas trees to tear up. The toy can be something intricate to hide food in that she can mess with.

Lions: they really like soccer sized balls. They also have large pieces of wood to chew on. They can't have anything made of thin plastic or fabric. I was thinking maybe something with feathers to attract them but I couldn't think of what.

Baboons: they love ripping open boxes! Everyday their food is hidden in boxes for them to find and open. I was hoping to make some sort of intricate puzzle box for them to figure out but I'm open to suggestions as to what the design should be. They also like picking things out of holes, in their exhibit there is a giant tree stump with holes drilled into it and they like picking food out of it. Basically they would enjoy any type of toy a five year old or younger would enjoy.

Anteater: they like ripping things apart with their long claws. They don't really have any actual toys besides pieces of wood that they tear apart. They also like oranges because they can rip them apart too.

Andean bears: pretty much will get into anything. They have some sticks and pastic balls to play with but I think they could really use more interesting toys.

Tapir: doesn't have any toys. He likes veggies and swimming in his exhibit pool. Can nudge around at things with his nose pretty well.

Capybara: Not really sure what they guys might like. They are pretty shy. I know they like the water though.

Any suggestions for any or all of these animls would be great. If I like your idea I might just make it and be able to give it to them, and then I can let you know what they do with it. Thank you!!!

Answer
Polar Bear:
How about diving rings? You know the ones they make as pool toys for little kids? They might be a little small though, so maybe you can make it out of something else...bike tires maybe?

Lions:
I'm stumped. Perhaps food animals with the fur/feathers still on?

Baboons:
Wrap food in progressively bigger boxes. Get a small-ish box and wrap it in gift wrap. Put that box in a slightly bigger box, then a slightly bigger box...you see? They'll open a box expecting food and get another box.

Alternatively, as you pack the boxes together, you can squeeze food in around them. So, they open a box, get a little treat and another box...open that box a little treat and another box...

That will work for the anteater and Andean bear too. They can rip through the layers.


Try big cardboard boxes for the tapir and capybara. Big enough for them to get into. Put food in and around them, and cut holes as windows. Works for rabbits, cats and hamsters. LOL!

what do you call those old antique wooden toys wheels that kids roll with a stick?

SineWave

you know, the ones were the kids run and hit the back of the wheel with a stick in order to make it roll

what do you call those?

Answer
They do not really have a name --
but what you are asking was called

"Hoop rolling"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoop_rolling

The hoop and stick are two of the
oldest toys in the world
and have been with us even farther
back then ancient greece...

no one really knows when
it got it's origins

The hoops you see kids playing with
in the movies are mostly hoops that
were used to hold barrels together
{mostly whiskey}

The stick itself was the most
versatile toy ever...

With a child's imagination -
a stick could be anything from
a twirling baton, a mighty sword,
a toy gun, a barker's cane,
a ruler's staff,
or a magic wand

In fact, the cardboard box,
the stick, and a hoop were just
recently commemorated and
given their own special display
in the Hall of Toys hall of fame
just last year ...

Do wooden toys make a difference for children's development (Montessori)?

MCi

If so, why and how? I would like some insight from preschool/Montessori teachers or daycare providers. Thanks

Answer
Some toys are better made of wood.

Wooden blocks are best to start with, and for advanced builders. They make good sounds when knocked over by older infants / younger toddlers, and school age kids can build very elaborate towers with them.

The wooden Thomas the trains are the best. Kids prefer them. They are "kid powered" so the kids actively use them, not just watch them go like battery operated ones. They feel solid in their hands.

Wood acts differently from plastic, and feels different. A variety of textures can only help their brains grow.

I have to agree, what type of toy doesn't teach kids something? I do give many toys for specific skills etc. but if they are handling something with their hands, they are learning.

When would you hire a nanny?

Paris

I'm going to be a teen mum and I obviously haven't finished school! I will need to hire a nanny and maybe enroll in a daycare? I don't want to rely on my family and friends for childcare services. I'm wanting to get prepared in the next month so that for most of the pregnancy I can focus on school. I was wondering if this sounded OK to you? I'm due around October 8 which is the beginning of term 4 so, I would finish school for 2013 at the end of term 3. I would be going back to school at the beginning of 2014. My dad wants me to hire a nanny a few days a week, so we came to an agreement of Nanny from 7am-5pm on Monday,Tuesday and Wednesday and the Daycare from 8am-4pm Thursday and Friday. These times are not exact/definite and we have already arranged the school absence. What do you guys think? Is it ok to put my child Daycare and have him/her stay with a nanny? Money is not an issue for my family.

Thanks...Please No Hate!!!
One of the reasons that I chose both was because I want my child to socialize at a young age etc. (Day Care) and I want my child to have a bond with an adult outside the family forever (I myself had a nanny and I love her dearly, as I grew up she and I were extremely close and still are)

Answer
To me a nanny and daycare is a bit much. When the baby is a toddler he/she will have rules at daycare, rules with the nanny and you. That's to much. Hire a nanny full time if you can afford it. She can take your child to story times at a library (great for making friends and fun for the kids), zoo, gym class, park, etc. your kid will still be around other kids. Also with a nanny, your kid can nap in his/her own bed, will have own toys, same routine and tons of one on one time., can have play dates .

Nanny over 20 years old. $10-12 hr.

I'm a nanny. The kids and I stay busy doing crafts, playing sports, going to story times, gym class, park, scavenger hunts, I teach them there basics needed for kindergarten , they have made friends from gym and story time, we go to Kid centers that are ok for toddlers as young as 1 up to elementary age, they are on a good schedule and we do change the schedule up at times so there not always doing the same thing, etc......

Do you think it is right to even suggest that a two year old killed by a pit bull could be at fault?

Jenny

I had someone suggest that perhaps the pit bull was provoked. I'm sure that two year old was threatening the pit bulls life and it had to kill the toddler. No way a growl or nip would have sufficed? This person is actually suggesting that the dog could have been justified.

I say that there is no provocation under the sun that a two year old could possibly do anything to justify that reaction. This person is far more ready to blame a dead toddler over a 100+/- pound dog.


The person also goes on to defend the mother saying it wasn't her fault. They apparently don't see how leaving a two year old with a 100#+/- pit bull is completely irresponsible and that if she was determined to have such an animal in her house that it was her duty to protect her child and ensure that the animal was secured and could never be a threat to her child. After all, two year olds are known to be somewhat unpredictable themselves.

Of course it is her fault. She left a two year old unsupervised with a 100# biting machine. It doesn't matter if the dog had been good for years. Leaving a toddler with any large dog is totally irresponsible. If she was determined to have such an animal in her home, it was her duty to secure the dog and never leave her child alone with it.

Finally, I find it noteworthy that the mother left the house without a scratch. I guess her house is so big that she couldn't hear her child being eviscerated or she was too scared to even try to rescue her child.

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/04/25/todâ¦

Answer
Do I think a 2-year-old could provoke an unstable dog to bite? Yes, certainly. The dog isn't going through some mental checklist of "can this human kill me?" or "what response would best make my point?". The dog is reacting in the moment to a child who *might have* seriously hurt or startled the dog in some way. The injury that killed the child may also be exaggerated by media. That is not to say that it wasn't a serious bite, but one serious bite to the head, neck, or thigh could quickly result in fatal blood loss.

However, that does not mean that the child is "at fault" for the incident. A toddler is impulsive and does not understand safety or the effects of her actions on others. The person/persons to blame for the incident would be whichever ADULTS made the terribly poor decision to leave the dog and the toddler alone together.

All those supposedly cute youtube videos of infants and toddlers mauling the "good old family dog" by chewing his ears, yanking his tail, bopping him with toys, etc. make me cringe. One momentary loss of control on the dog's part and their child may be damaged for life and their beloved dog may be have to be euthanized. Little kids and big dogs can mix, but there must be adult supervision, a safe space away from the child for the dog, and adult guidance so that the child is taught proper behavior around the pet.

What are some good educational toys for a 2 year old girl?

Cmeyer

My daughter is going to be two in May. I am wondering what would be some good educational toys for her. I have been looking but most of what I have been seeing is for infants and toys that she would get bored of. She likes things that make noise. Right now she is into drawing and organizing. She likes pushing things around. She is really into baby dolls right now. I got her one and some accessories to go with. I am just wondering what educational. I a curious what your child at this age likes or liked and also what are some toys to avoid? Thanks!

I would recommend anything Leapfrog. A couple that come to mind are the Leapfrog Fridge Phonics Magnetic Letter Set and the Leapfrog Alphabet Explorer. Here is a link to all Leapfrog toys that are appropriate for a 2 year old-

I believe it is for ages 18 months to 3 years.

My son likes his Little People Animal Sounds Farm. I would recommend that highly. Great for learning animal sounds and names and for speech (saying in, out, up, down).

Answer
Sky Dancers (TV series) ?

Here's Part 1 of Episode 1:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ef_p-LoWpfs

From Wikipedia:
Sky Dancers is the name of a line of toys that was popular in the mid-1990s. The toys were constructed of a pull-string base and a doll with foam wings. When the doll was inserted into the base and the string pulled, the doll would launch into the air, spinning its wings like a propeller as it flew. Five characters were created: Jade, Camille, Breeze, Angelica, and Slam.

The series spawned an animated television spinoff produced by Abrams Gentile Entertainment in association with Xilam in 1996. The five characters were said to be students at the High Hope Dance Academy under the widowed Queen Skyla. Queen Skyla and her students defended her kingdom from Skyla's jealous brother-in-law Sky Clone, who sought revenge for his brother Skyler (Skyla's husband) being selected as king over him. Sky Clone had successfully killed Skyler but was unable to gain control of the Sky Swirl Stone that gave the Sky Dancers their powers. The series ended after one season once E/I regulations took effect.

You can read about the characters on the Wikipedia page.

I like to make gell candles for each person. Real simple, looks nice and you can even color and/or sent the candle. Nice thing is you can personalize each candle. Put a small trinket inside the jar before you pour the wax...for example put a toy firetruck in it for the firefighter in your life, ect. Another good one is use cookie cutters into Christmas Tree ornaments.

Toys that encourage an almost two year old to talk more?

dreamsofam

I'm attending a friend's party tomorrow for her daughter who will be turning two. I'm very concerned about her little ones speech. Both of the little girl's parents spoil her rotten in the area of speech and don't require her to talk. They just give her what she wants and let her get away with pointing, crying, and grunting and other gestures that don't require her to vocalize. I don't want to ruin the friendship by bringing this up. So, the question is: Is there a toy that would encourage my friend's daughter to talk more? (I've already researched this and found the idea of mom role playing with daughter with a voice recorder, tea set, and pretending they are at the zoo. So, I need something different)
I'm a K-8 special education teacher. I'm well aware that every child develops at a different rate. The situation with my friends and their child is extreme and is painful for me to watch and see her so catered to. If it wasn't an extreme case, I would ignore it because I value my friendship with the child's parents. However, I also value a child's right to not be held back by a parent's enabling behavior.
So many wonderful ideas! Thanks to all of you who gave ideas that answered my question and didn't go off topic with a lecture that I didn't need. Also, some of the ideas you all gave though they are not appropriate for this year (due to the fact that some toys can only be purchased online and I need the gift today and some are not activities she can do by herself) I WILL keep them in mind for the years to come. Most of you set me up with ideas not only for this year but for the years to come...THANKS!

I need toys for little kids like two-year-olds so what should I get them?

Maelorwen

If you've ever tried to ask a two-year-old what they want for Christmas or a birthday present you know what I mean by walking into a situation of comedy and confusion. Not wanting to look like a complete klutz I want to know what toys can I get for two-year-olds that are safe and will make them happy?

Answer
Go to any toy store or department store. All toys usually have age suggestions on them. Look for large and colorful toys because at the age of two, color is what will usually stimulate their interest. For the sake of the parents, avoid things that make noise or talks. Young children will drive their parents insane with these kinds of toys, so it is best not to give them to a child as a gift unless it is your child and you are willing to put up with the noise.

By the way, most of the toys on Mark's list are NOT good for a two year old.

I remember these little dolls from when I was little but can't remember the name of them. They were about the size of a barbie and were sort of dressed like ballerinas. There was a little stand that came with them and you put the doll on the stand, either pull something or press a button and then the doll would fly up in to the air and would be twirling as well. I think they were called sky something. But I'm not sure. If anyone knows what I'm talking about, please let me know.

Dont kids play with toys any more?

trekkie_fr

I see kids ages like 9-12 (Sorry kiddies but that is children) doing everything except play with toys lately.

I see them on cell phones,or 10 yr old girls dressing like hookers wearing way too much make up. I have even seen kids that age walking down the street smoking like its no big deal. They even talk about sex like they really know first hand what its like. ( Kinda scary I think)

Is it just my area here or are kids now a days trying to grow up too fast?

whose to blame for this?

When I was that age I was playing with cars,He-mans, Gi Joes and that sort of thing.
cancan: you gave me an idea for another question.

Answer
Kids toys are different these days - cell phones are the new "walkie-talkies". They play video games of cars, he-man, and GI Joe.

As for the "grow up too fast" argument, there are a few things going on that really don't go well together.

Twelve year olds have more knowledge (as you pointed out) about sex and other adult topics than newlyweds did a few generations back.

At the same time, the children aren't responsible for their actions as they are still children. Unfortunately, parents are limited in their right to discipline their children and many lack discipline themselves.

So, children remain children despite their abundant adult knowledge until long after they should've become adults. The nation is full of 20 year old children, and 12 year old girls dressed like hookers.

What's the solution? Turn off the fking TV and talk to your kids. Teach them responsibility. Be open with them about them becoming adults. Don't close your eyes and mumble abstinence - it isn't reasonable and it doesn't work. Instead, validate their emotions and facilitate their decision making.

Second Grade Science Fair Project Ideas??

Sarah J

My daughter is participating in the Science Fair for the first time and we are looking for a good / easy project she can complete on her own. Any past experience would be great! Thank you!

Answer
science fair is all about learning something in science and doing a series of experiments. encourage your child to choose what she wants to know more about. do NOT have her do a fancy science trick without knowing what's behind the fancy stuff.

some ideas:

which releases more gas: baking powder or baking soda?
-get two bottles and two balloons. put soda in one and powder in the other balloon. pour vinegar into both bottles. attach the open end of the balloons to each bottle. allow the powder to fall down into the bottle. the balloons will inflate. check to see which inflates more...or which inflates faster..you could also try it with alka seltzer.

how do different colors of light affect plants?
-buy four of the same plant. get 4 shooe boxes and cut the topps off so that the plants will be in a box that has a window. allow one to have sunlight. apply colored plastic onto three of the boxes by taping the plastic over the opening. be sure to allow air holes (maybe at the bottom of the box) so the plants can have air and won't get too hot. allow the second to have filtered red light, another to have filtered green light, and the last to have filtered blue light. you can get filters from any teacher's supply shop. i think you can find colored saran wrap at the grocery store.

how do plants react when watered with different liquids?
-get four of the same species of plant. water one with plain water. water another with salt water. water the third with milk. water another with soda. check to see how the plants differ.

which diaper holds the most liquid?
-buy four differnt brands of disposable baby diapers. pour a cup (or some other amount) of liquid on each. test to see which is most absorbent.

which battery lasts the longest?
-get four differnt brands of batteries, and four electronic devices....like four toy dogs, four flashlights, or something like that. put the batteries inside each device and leave the devices on. record each day....check to see which lasts the longest.

can boys in second grade ______ better than girls?
with a teachers help...have the student do a blindfold taste test, or a reflex reaction test (catching a falling object without warning, for example) on 2 or 3 classes of students. graph and chart results. make conclusions.

how does a lemon conduct electricity?
-you can build a clock using a lemon...it's in any science book for kids. all you have to do is find the parts at radio shack, and buy a lemon.

how fast can a rat/guinea pig/mouse learn to run a maz?
-if you have any of these as pets...build a maze out of plywood or cardboard. place the animal in the maze. time the animal, and count how many trials it takes for the animal to be successful.

whatever you and your child choose....don't build a volcano out of clay and use baking soda/vinegar to make it erupt. ...it's very over done, and it doesn't really teach kids about volcanoes.

Do you buy nothing but educational toys for your child?

firefly_fo

What type of toys do you buy for your child? Toys for kids to be kids and enjoy their childhood, or do you ONLY buy toys that are purely educational? What are the pro's and con's for your decision? What about toys (fun and playful vs just educational) for an 8 month old vs. a 2 yr old? I've always bought both - toys that are educational and teach a purpose like animal sounds, abc's, 123's or whatever... as well as toys that are just toys... like bubbles, or balls, or a slide or cars...

All different thoughts and responses are welcome! Thank you!!
Thanks! All answers were GREAT. I totally agree that all toys are educational! I initially asked this question because my sister has an 8 mo old & I asked if she wanted some of the toys that my son grew out of (he's 2) and she said no to ALL of them; she didn't want any toys that weren't "educational" for her son. That just got me to thinking what was so wrong with toys just being toys to play with and have fun, so I had to ask all of you. I mean a kids gotta be a kid and have fun; it's not all about book learning and being smart. I'm not saying my son doesn't have a caterpillar or a bus singing the abc's or toy's teaching animals and their sounds... he's got tons of "educational" toys. But his fav ones are cardboard brick blocks, wooden blocks, lego's, trucks, tractors, bubbles, cars, sandbox & watertable. And I just wondered if I was spoiling him with having a variety of toys to play with. Or making the wrong choice by having fun toys just to be silly and a kid...

Answer
I buy very few of the "Leap Frog" type educational toys. I think kids need to learn through experience, not by having a computer voice drill them. I buy lots of toys that require imagination and problem solving skills; things like blocks, craft kits, role playing toys. I also like outdoor or active type toys like hula hoops, sports equipment, etc. We buy TONS of books. Now that my kids are older (5 and 7) they prefer science stuff. My son likes Matchbox cars and superheros a little but my daughter was never into Barbies, princesses, etc, (though she does like stuffed animals). Both really like the experiential type toys we have and even choose to buy them with their own allowance.

They like going to their friends' houses to play wii. But their friends like to come here to cook, explore the outdoors, and do craft projects!

Bubbles, balls, and slides are not "just toys!" All three teach basic physics through experience. Slides and balls help with coordination and physical development, including equilibrium. They can all be used for make believe. Stress management and "just plain fun" are important life skills, too.

At Christmas time when you were a little kid?

Beefcake

What was your biggest dissapointment in getting presents. Mine was getting clothes....no eight year old is looking forward to more clothes. I wanted toys. There were no electronic gizmos in my day, back in the 60's.

Answer
What turned out to have been my favorite present (of 14 years of celebrating), was taken away from me against my will, & replaced... I'd wanted a dog -- all us 4 kids wanted a dog. I was given a very cute, small, toy, terrier-type, real-looking dog, which barked at loud noises. It was 'love at first sight'! I even took it across the alley to show it to the elderly couple who lived there. Then, I put it in my room, & we went somewhere --I don't recall if it was to dinner, or what-- but, I went to my 'dog' first thing when we returned... It wouldn't bark. It never barked again. I didn't know if the batteries had been old, or I had left it on, or if it was broken, and I didn't care which! I loved my dog! But, Mom had the idea that it should be returned, & no amount of crying or pleading could change her mind. It went back into a bag & out the door with her... She returned with a much larger, homely, very slow-moving , robotic-walking, hound-looking dog. I was extremely broken-hearted! I didn't want to hurt Mom's feelings, so I walked it 1 or 2 times a year. Every time I walked past that 'hound', I mourned for my little fuzzy 'barkless' dog... ); What made it even worse was that it left me feeling that Mom didn't really care how I felt. );

Children's feelings do matter!
Don't ever think that they don't!

What is the name of this toy ?

Isabelle L

Ok, so when I was younger, I had this amazing toy that I had gotten for my birthday. It was a robotic dog that responded to the things I said and stuff like that. I'm pretty sure it had a silver body, blue ears (I remember that the ears also came in different colors with different dogs ) and a screen for eyes, that would show the kid what the "dog" was thinking/feeling . So my question is, downy of you guys by chance know the name of this toy? I had it when In like 2003 I think and I would like to buy one for the tiro I baby sit :) thanks in advance !t

Toddler saying "I don't like you!"?

Quick Draw

I'm a nanny for a great 2 1/2 year old boy. His mother is having another baby any day now, and he has been acting angrier and more clingy.

Today he gave me a hug, and said in a very pleasant voice, "I don't like you." And he kept saying it. I wasn't sure how to react so I said, "That isn't very nice. It hurts my feelings when you say that." He obviously does love me, and he didn't say it in a mean voice.

Any advice on what to say/how to react?

Answer
What worked with my toddler when she started saying mean things or was obviously frustrated I would "go with it". I have figured out that asking "why", or saying "that's not nice", just trying to rationalize doesn't work between the ages of 2 and 4.

For example: I wouldn't let her take her toy into preschool with her and she said I wasn't her friend. I said, that makes you angry doesn't it? you really want to take it with you! I would be upset too.

All they can do is agree with you. You have validated their feelings and the whole thing diffuses. This little boy is going through a lot right now. Maybe sitting down with him and acting out with puppets that are angry about a new baby coming or reading a book about a new baby. He is just trying to get a reaction and if you side WITH him he will get it out of his system faster. Good luck!

Toddler Seperation Anxiety?

J M

I have an almost 4 year old I just placed into a Spring Camp. He did good the first day but every day after that he has been crying and having tantrums. He is only there a half day. I am a SAHM but I am very active with my SAHMs group. He has about 10 friends that he plays with 3-4 times a week plus we stay busy on the weekends.
He is fine when he wakes up in the morning, on the way there, and going up to the door. As soon as he sees the other kids, he is asking me to go home. Of course I know he needs to grow out of it, but does anyone have any advice where I can sort of try to calm him down. There are days where I can hear him screaming all the way to the car. I just feel so bad for him. Its only for a couple more days. I did this to try to prep-him for preschool which he starts in a couple of months.

Experienced advice is greatly appreciated

Answer
I'm a preschool teacher. What I've found works best is when the parents have a set drop off routine. You come in, tell them to have a good day and give hugs and kiss and than leave. The quicker you leave the better for you both. Your child will cry for the first few days (maybe longer), but eventually he'll be used to the routine and before you know it he'll be waving for you to leave. Trust me, this has worked for every child I have seen that used to have the same problems going on. It's when the parents stick around longer to comfort their child that it gets worse. When you stay your child knows he can get you to stay longer by crying and causing a scene so he will do it just to talk you into staying or bringing him back home. Once you follow a routine and leave quickly he will get used to it - trust me. It may be hard to do but it does work best and it will help your son adjust.

Also just some other tips to go along with this - always remind him that you will be there soon to pick him up. Allow him to bring a stuffed animal or cool toy that he can show off to his new friends... you can also tell him that if he's good and goes to camp like a big boy he will get a special treat when you pick him up.

are there toys that help toddlers learn to talk?

coarsegold

something that would elicit a verbal response?

Answer
Hi coarsegoldgrannie,

There was a brief period when our son was 2 that my wife began to get seriously concerned over his language capabilities. As a result, she spent months researching toys and videos that would help accelerate his speech and language skills.

To help our toddler verbalize, we found that the video series Signing Time, http://www.kids-toys-parents-love.com/Sign_Language_Videos.html, proved highly valuable in helping our boy get less frustrated about asking for things he wanted. Even our 14 month old girl began expressing emotions through sign language such as, Happy, Grumpy or Sick (when she truly felt those emotions).

A set of 3 DVDs called Meet the Sight Words, 1,2,3, was an amazing find and not only did it help our son to verbalize those words, but also to read them and identify them in books and television. Now, at three he spells all of the words independently in his Doodle pad, and our now 20 month old girl can read all the words. It took me a little while to get used to the videos, but the kids took to them right away. I wrote about our story here - http://www.kids-toys-parents-love.com/Sight_Words.html

Those were our two favorite DVD sets for helping the kids with their language skills. But since you asked for toys, here are a couple of recommendations:

The LeapFrog Scribble & Write http://www.kids-toys-parents-love.com/alphabet_learning.html is more of a writing toy that accurately helps kids write their ABCs by following a set of LED lights and audio instructions onto an erasable pad. It took our son a full day to figure it out, but once he did, he proudly ran to show us his skills. The TALKING part came when, after he figured out how to write all the letters, he would mimic the audio instructions and say, "first, draw a line from here to here. Then, draw another line from here to here. Finally, draw a straight line from here to here." So he was repeating the words used by the toy to help him write the letter A.

The Scribble & Write was too mature for our daughter, so at around 15 months she was using the LeapFrog Text & Learn http://www.kids-toys-parents-love.com/Leap_Frog_Text_and_Learn.html which has a QWERTY type pad and several teaching modes. The most useful is the mode that teaches letter pronunciation, in which upon pressing the letter, the audio guide claims, "P, the P says p..p...p" And after a while she was cutely coming up to us with wooden letter blocks and saying, "B, b...b...b..." So cute!!

I hope these toys and videos help. They were among our favorites and we truly saw their language skills develop before our eyes. Of course, parent participation always helps and reinforces instruction and knowledge through play. And the Doodle pad helps them to write down and express what they've learned.

Best Wishes,
Kids Toys Parents Love

What are some good learning toys to buy a toddler for Christmas?

lysistrata

My son is 18 months old and I am not sure what to get him other than what I already have. I wanted to get him something specifically aimed at learning, not just fun time.

Answer
It may sound weird, but at this age - EVERYTHING is a learning toy. Your child will be able to learn from anything. Kids are sponges at this age and absorb everything from how something feels, to the noise it makes, to the way it moves, etc.

My son always loved things with wheels. He would flip cars over just to play with the wheels - especially ones that you could pull back, and then they'd go forward on their own. You could see the excitement in his face when he figured out how to do this on his own. =)

I've read articles that said constantly giving your baby toys that are teaching, and learning things can actually be detrimental. They say it limits a child's imagination. If a toy is telling your child that something is a bear.. then it's a bear. Nothing more. It's not a magical bear with super powers.. or a bear that loves to eat vanilla pudding.. it's just a bear.

My son does have some learning toys, but I've found he doesn't like them that much. (He likes cause and effect toys like keyboards/pianos.. those pop a shape things, etc where you have to do something to make something happen)

Here's a list of the top 5 educational toddler toys :

Raine Maida of Our Lady Peace's voice?

Neighborho

Am I the only one who thinks his voice is absolutely amazing? Have many of you heard some of Our Lady Peace's music? Especially the older stuff?

I think he has one of the most unique and talented voices of all musical history. Check out these songs by OLP:

* Blister
* Car Crash
* Naveed
* Clumsy
* Superman's Dead

Answer
His voice is certainly one of the more unique voices out there. His vocal work peaked on either the 'Happiness is not a Fish That You Can Catch' album or 'Spiritual Machines'. The two albums since that were too over-produced and his creativeness were lacking. The new album 'Burn Burn' will be more like the raw sound from Clumsy and Naveed. I can't wait.

Teen Birthday ??

irock808

I'm gonna be turning 14 and I have absolutely no idea what to do for my b-day. I wanted to do paintball but I can't find any places. Does anyone know of any cool, fun places or things to do around lodi or manteca.

Answer
I dont know your area but here are some ideas if you want to do something else.

Hotel party, Rent 2 adjoining rooms. Decorate 1 room a bit with a theme you like. Then invite boys and girls to come swim, have cake, and pizza. Then the boys go home and the girls sleep over and do girl things in 1 room and your parents stay in the other room.

Bowling party.

Hollywood theme: Everyone dress up for a red carpet event. Rent a small hall or room. Have everyone wear white/black and you steal the show in red. Make it a dance. Buy a couple celebrity stand ups for pictures with your guests. Buy hollywood decorations at shindgiz, partycheap, hollywood megastore, etc. Have a DJ.

Movie party at home. Have a movie themed party. They sell decorations for this at oriental trading. com and you can also find some movie stuff on the hollywood sites I mentioned above. Watch a cool movie, have popcorn and all kids of candy and junk food. Make or buy pizza and have sundaes. Have a sleep over with the girls if you want. Have a dance if your have room.

Movie party at the movies. Take some friends to an early matinee and then go home and hangout make or buy pizzas and have sundaes. Karaoke. Wii or like. Dance.
Luau, beach Hawaii: Orientaltrading has the coolest decorations and favors for this theme and the cutest tropical invitation in the bottle. Give your guests leis as they come in. Play Limbo, Hula hoop, and have a few grass skirts and everyone (including the guys) have to give hulaing a try. Again if you have room to do this at home or you can rent a small room. Tropical pinata. Twister.

Candy theme: Pink tablecloths, pink and white balloons. Make candy bouquets for the tables with short wide mouth vase from the dollar store. Fill 1/3 with peppermint disks. Buy colorful lollipops and put in the vase. Make another one t he same but use candy sticks instead like cherry, lime, etc. You can attach bows to each one with a favor card that says your initial, 16 or thanks for coming to my sweet 16 and then after the party give them out as favors. Get personalized M and Ms to put in small favor bags. Get personalized hershey bar wrappers and little personalized stickers that go on the bottom of hershey's kisses. Buy plate size styrofoam 3 inch thick rounds and wrap in clear cellophane for a big hard candy decorations. you could put a wood dowel in one to make it a sucker. Play twister. For favors those candy necklaces, bracelets ands ring pops and candy lipsticks. They sell inflatable lollipops at Windy City Novelities.

Neon theme. Bright colors, neon lights and glow in the dark items. They sell lights that go in balloons and all kinds of neon and glow in the dark items at windy city novelitis, oriental trading and U.S. Toy Company.

For any theme you choose check out scene setters: http://www.4funparties.com/PRODUCTS/Deco...
These are huge plastic murals that make your theme looks so real. We have used these and love them and so cheap. You buy backgrounds and can add things to them.

Party decorations:
shindigz, oriental trading, U.S. Toy Company, partycheap, and many, many more.

Which is better- The Sims 2 or The Sims 3?

Billy

I have almost the whole Sims 2 collection and now they come out with Sims 3. I want to know from people who played both, which game is better? I don't own the Sims 3 nor have I ever played it.

Answer
I got the sims 3 a couple of weeks after it came out- I thought there was too much hype on it. I had the sims 2 and i loved it.

The main difference with Sims 3 is that you can do more, like there is so much more detail. One of the greatest things about it is the loading time- there is none. When you wanna visit someone's house, you just walk across the street and knock on the door. It's so easy to make friends that way.

Another thing is that there is always something happening in Sims 3, the whole town grows old with your sim, you will make friends with someone, and when you get older so will they. That is especially good for when you are friends, as you can be friends with someone from when you are born, till when they die. And then you mourn their death. And you can take pics of you together at different stages of yours and their life.

You have a proper mobile phone on the sims 3, you can take pics with is and put them on your wall; this is good for when babies are born, taking a picture of them growing up. And its not like you take a picture of the whole scene in Sims 2, you can focus on one little thing, and zoom in on it :)

The expansion pack, Sims 3 World Adventures is really quite good, yeah people have had some problems with it, like I have, but once they get sorted, its really great! You can visit different countries and have people visit you and marry them and have kids with them and stuff! You get to learn songs from other countries and there are missions in each new place with tombs and nectar making , that sorta thing , and the whole family can go on the holiday, its really good basically.

The one annoying thing is Sims 3, is that they don't have changing mats for the baby :( like those changing table things, BUT they have some great new cots and play boxes where the toddler can play in the box and with new toys and stuff. Also another main big thing is that you can see them go inside places, like if they go to the library you can SEE them go in the library and you can SEE them go to the art gallery and control them when they go out. There is a Spa on Sims 3 which is really cool, where you can get massages and beauty treatments;makes them really relaxed and a mother can do that with her daughter so its really fun for them both and helps them bond.

You can go fishing! and get really cool fish and cook with them and put them in gold fish bowls :) You can plant in the gardens and see your fruit for example apple trees and lime trees and also buy vegetable seeds and grow them too like onions and stuff like that. You have a gardening skill and fishing skill and obviously still a painting skill. But the difference in Skills in Sims 2 and 3 is that you have a LOT more skills. Like when you go on holiday you have a photography skill, and nectar making skill and you can dive in wells which gives you skills after you have explore them :)

It is really cool being able to walk outside at like 3am on Sims 3 and see stuff happening like at the park or beach and just hanging out with people :) You can't do that on Sims 2. I definitely prefer Sims 3, and I know there are a lot more expansions coming out with soon. You get more out of your game with Sims 3 as there is more you can do and you don't get bored as easily as with Sims 2 when you think you have done everything. So in my opinion, The Sims 3 is better than The Sims 2! If you wanna ask anymore questions about it, email me. Hopefully I answered your question as good as I can! :)

Need holiday gift ideas to/from 10 month old boy, as well as holiday decorating ideas for nursery?

..

our son will be 10 months old this December
(first holiday season)
he has both Christian and Jewish heritage, so we'd like to incorporate that into our celebrations

as for interests-
he loves the zoo (especially the tropical frog exhibit), music (his father plays guitar and he really seems to enjoy watching dada play), and playing outside (real nature lover, enjoys hiking with mama)

We're looking for gifts (toys, educational items, or toddler furniture) that he'll enjoy and maybe grow with.
We're also hoping to find a good gift that we can give to his aunts, uncles, grandparents on his behalf.
And if anyone has any craft type projects- we enjoy crafting and are hoping to find a cute way to decorate his nursery and playroom for the holidays (for example: we dressed his stuffed animals up in costume for Halloween). We were planning on giving him his own little tree so maybe ideas for homemade orniments that we can make for him.

Thank you for any suggestions, ideas, websites that may help us in planning our son's first holiday season-

Answer
Ok, so I know this may sound cheesey, but whenever you are giving a gift FROM a child, you can't go wrong with a nice picture frame and a picture of that child. Everyone loves a baby picture! lol

You could get construction paper and cut the strips that you turn into rings (homemade garland). You can do a countdown til Christmas and let the little guy rip a ring off each day.
You can also make garland by poping a bag of popcorn, using a needle thread to string it - you can add large wooden beads to add to it's holiday charm.
Ornaments can be made out of gingerbread. Cut out small shapes with cookie cutters and make a hole in the top where you can put a sting through.

As far as gifts go, you should definitely get him some books - but make sure they are the cardboard ones or he's just going to rip that pages out. And maybe a little light up drum or bongo, or keyboard. Something that he can express himself with.

what is the type of sax that alacranes musical uses?

Juan P

i need this because i want to be in a school band

Answer
I'm not super familiar with Alacranes musical, but in "Por Tu Amor" it's an Eb Alto sax.

The alto is what most beginners learn on, and it is smaller and higher pitched than a tenor or bari sax.

Band would be a great place to learn the basics, but you will probably never get to play in the Mariachi style that Alacranes Musical does. Your best bet, if you wanted to do that, is to get a private teacher (could also be great to help you learn the basics!), or find a local Mariachi group to bum around with. LOL

Happy Playing! :)

how to make your own potter puppet pals?

Anna

ok so first off i dont want anyone saying im copying art work or stealing anything :) i'm teaching my own harry potter winter vacation camp and i thought it would be cool to have a puppet show with the potter puppet pals, so if anyone has any websites or has directions and material to show me how to make them that would be great! i also have acsess to micheals and acmore craft stores to buy supplies :) thanks all!
also im really bad at crocheting it would be awsome if someone can give me directions that invole sewing i think thats how they made the originals

Answer
There are none. There's a reason why you can only find crocheted patterns and nothing else. It's because it WOULD be copying, and any patterns not officially released by the Potter Puppet Pals folk would be ripping off someone else's work. Copyright extends not just to music you listen to, or movies you watch, but also to puppet designs.

There is no reason why you can't come up with your own Harry Potter themed puppets, without copying the Potter Pals. It just requires a little more effort that's all.

But why bother asking if you already know the answer?

I draw pretty good, shouldi continue?

William

Should I continue drawing?

Answer
If you draw well I see no reason to stop but think carefully about what you will use it for, drawing as a hobby is always a good thing but choosing to make a profession out of it requires some thought. Would you be truly happy drawing things that a client would want or would you rather only draw things you want? Another, more accurate way to word that would be are you drawing for the sake of drawing or do you draw because you like to draw only what interests you? Take that into consideration and keep on drawing whether it be for fun or to eventually follow it as a career.

easy, draw what you see. It doesn't have to be special, just look around and draw. A chair, stuff on a tabletop, yourself in a mirror, it doesn't matter as long as you're drawing it.

I liked dolls when i was that age. and coloring books are a good thing to take, they are cheap to purchase too. and a few videos for her to watch age appropriate of course. you could take a kid board game if you have one, or a deck of cards, play slap jack if shes really little, or if shes a little older play go fish, or let her make up her own game! You could ask the parents if they have some of those things and if they dont have something you do im sure the kid would love to play with something they dont have! good luck! just have fun with her and she'll have fun too!
