Does anyone know of a good website for tracking health, nutrition, food and weight durring pregnancy??

We Answered:

I don't know about a web site but there is a really cool worksheet put out by Bradley teachers that helps with staying on track. you can go to bradleybirth.com and find a teacher near you they would probably give you one if not email me and I'll send you a copy of mine. only I don't think it has a track for weight gain.

What reasons could be given why a child is substantially taller than his older brother?

We Answered:

One of them got more height genes from you, the other got more height genes from his mother. It just seems to happen that way. I know girls who grew to adult heights taller than their brothers, too, which is a bit unusual.

Downs is genetic, but not inherited. It's a random gene mutation. So, what she inherited doesn't have much to do with the Downs.

What type of preschool is your child in?

We Answered:

The state I live in we have what they call Pre-K, and I can honestly say that, that's exactly what they do.....I have 2 children who attended and man am I impressed. I was a product of pre-k too. Headstart I don't agree with. Their focus is on teaching caring and sharing.....to me that's my job as a parent, I would want for them to focus on abc and 123!

responsibilities of early childhood teachers in providing for health, safety, and nutrition of children?

We Answered:

It's complicated. Teachers need to find the balance between installing good values while not contradicting what the children are taught at home. I would say that teachers should protect the children from harm when they are in their care. Although the teachers can educate the children on healthy eating, they can not control what parents actually choose to feed them.

How can we build an inclusive Sudanese society now that we have achieved peace after 21 years of fighting?

We Answered:

Peace may never come in certain areas of the world. Bringing the people clinics to treat disease, immunizations to children (hey now 18 year old girls and under can prevent cervix cancer with a shot) clean bottled water and daily food must be more important than education. I've seen the Sierra and was abandoned, after being beaten, seven months pregnant with my third son. The people who took care of me had no food and gave me their babies water to stop my contrations. When we suffer (like you Sir and your country) our reward is up to God after we die. I'm sure it will be paradise for eternity for the people of war torn regions.

Help. I need an interactive health fair idea for children - on nutrition. Ideas???

We Answered:

I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for, maybe if you explianed, I would be able to help you more specifically. And how old are the children?

You could have kids draw vegetables (or have them use real ones) and lable them with the nutirents they contain. Have them draw them with faces. Or, you can have them make a vegetable doll:

For example, the Broccoli would be the Eyebrows, beans would be the eyes, carrots would be the nose.

If my ideas goes a little bit according to what you're looking for, you can email me and I'll give you the idea in detail.
