Fortza, the first corn flakes in Romania, is reinventing itself!

There are moments from my daughter's early childhood that I will never forget. One of my favorites was when, at night, I would sit on the edge of his bed, open a book, and tell him stories and more stories.

At first it was somewhat uncomfortable for me since between work and taking care of my little girl, I came to the night super tired. Still, he read the story to her and she listened to it until her little eyes closed.

Over time, she began to ask questions, to suggest other endings, to invent other characters and even stories. It was really a joy! In the end, we both enjoyed ourselves.

What I have been able to conclude with that is that, like us, children do not like only that we talk to them. They enjoy much more if we talk to them. Reading a story is more interesting and attractive if we encourage them to participate, ask questions, 'dress' as a character, express themselves and even make the 'noises' of the stories. This is how dialogue is born.

I fully agree, with research on communication with children, that talking with children stimulates and enhances their cognitive and linguistic development. This communication is not achieved just by reading them a book and a story.

Interacting with the people who live with them, whether at home or at school, is even more enriching. You can talk with your children at any time, on the way to school or home, during lunch or dinner, on a walk in the late afternoon, playing games, or before going to bed.

You can talk to children about all the issues that occur to them: what they are going to wear, how they have been at school, uff ... I can think of a lot of things. The more time children spend in front of the television, the less time they have to interact with other people.

Without a doubt, television is a tool that helps in the socialization of children. Everything they see on TV later affects their relationship with other children. However, television, as well as video consoles, etc., cannot and should not replace a talk or family chat.

Encouraging children to speak and make mistakes will promote their language development, while activities that keep them quiet, such as being in front of a screen, can be counterproductive. It is best for children to have appropriate and healthy communication experiences from an early age.

Infrared Lamp and Bioptron Lamp - Use it for Your Child

During the cold season, you can benefit greatly from an infrared or bioptron lamp that can cure a variety of upper respiratory illnesses by heat or light.

Infrared Lamp and Bioptron Lamp - Use it for Your Child

You can also use the lamps for children in the treatment of many diseases, but there are a few rules that you need to follow in this case.

The light that burns

Infrared rays have infrared rays that are longer than visible light and are capable of penetrating deeper layers of body tissues and exerting heat. In the applied area, this stimulates circulation and blood flow, thereby accelerating healing. In contrast, the spectrum of the bioptron lamp contains only the lower infrared field, so when used, the temperature rises to a maximum of 37 degrees, so it will not be much warmer than the body's normal temperature, similar to an infrared light.

The disease is most effective at the beginning

Infrared light can be used to treat problems of the forehead, facial area, skin, superficial skin, cold sores, sore throat, hoarseness, cold sores, cold sores, cold sores, , is also suitable for furuncular cure, we learned Dr. Enikх SzыcsBecause the infrared lamp enhances metabolism in the treated area, more oxygen and nutrients are transported to it, thereby accelerating the healing process and the regeneration process. In the initial stages, when we feel for ourselves and our children that our area is aching, especially as mentioned above, it is worthwhile to start using the lamp.

Careful with the power!

Because the infrared lamp exerts heat, it must be used with caution: due to the heat, the inflammatory process can be very accelerated and purulent melting may occur, resulting in increased pain. If infra-infrared is used for a short period of time, the skin becomes blurred, or in more severe cases, blistering of the skin can occur. It is therefore more advisable to use a bioptron lamp as it reduces inflammation and soothes the skin - the expert explained.

More baby than bioptron

The ear-nose specialist has been asked how to use lamps in children. According to him, the use of lanterns is not recommended for very young children, because it is important to in a relaxed position be. - When the smaller child is asleep, we use the lamp at most, so that we can always keep the light in one place. THE babies prefer the bioptron lamp instead of the infrared lamp we use it because the former can easily burn the skin. Whether it is bioptron or infrared, it is better to first apply it to children over the age of 4-5 years, if you do not need it earlier - warned Dr. Enikх Szыcs.

A few minute treatments

If your baby is definitely using the bioptron lamp when they are asleep, apply it to the problem area a maximum of 2 minutes. For slightly older children over the age of 4-5 years, this interval can be increased to 10 minutes once, but if you have an unpleasant discomfort, you should stop breathing immediately if you have this disease. I wonder if we can use the lamp. If the application develops inflammation and is more pleasing to the child, cool the area rather than warm it. Warming is also common in people with inflammatory diseases of the ear, in which case children may benefit from using a bioptron or infrared lamp, but do so for as long as possible, feel good - let's keep warm. The use of infrared warming or bioptron lamps can be used alone in the onset of the disease, and the development of the disease may be a good addition to antibiotic treatments, as it is less likely to occur.

Baby sleep tips for working couples

Teaching your baby to sleep can be hard on a couple because you're both likely to be sleep-deprived at the same time. This means you're not at your best during the delicate negotiations of deciding who does what to get your baby to sleep.

So how do you share the job – and preserve your relationship – when you both need to be alert enough to work the next day?

For working parents of newborns: Creating a nighttime plan

Select a bedtime routine that works for both of you. Assuming neither of you wants to be solely responsible for the bedtime routine every night, make sure the activities you choose to help your baby wind down – a warm bath, book, or lullaby – are things you both want to do.

Work with each other's strengths. Does your partner need to get up earlier for work? Then it may make more sense for you to handle your baby's midnight wake-ups and for your partner to feed the baby before work.

Can he fall back to sleep easily while it takes you lots of tossing and turning before you fade? Then getting up in the middle of the night may be better for him to handle while you get up early with your baby.

"Talk about what your personal sleep needs are, and try to accommodate each other's sleep cycle," says Barbara Nusbaum, a clinical psychologist in Manhattan. "If one of you is a morning person and the other a night person, take shifts. Try to work with each other's strengths and weaknesses."

Make sure it's understood that midnight duty is not just for moms. Even if you're nursing, it doesn't necessarily mean you should get stuck with the middle of the night shift. When you need to be at work the next day, pump your breast milk ahead of time so your partner can use it to bottle-feed the baby when it's his turn to be on call.

Take turns. Some couples switch off nights, and others alternate taking care of the baby in the course of one night. On weekends, many couples give each other a chance to sleep in on one of those days. The point is, find a way to share the load.

For working parents of babies 4 months and older: How to tackle sleep training

Discuss what sleep training method is best for your family before putting it into action. Ask friends and relatives what sleep training methods worked for them. Read up on each one to see which is the best fit for your family. Having a plan you both agree on will help you feel more capable – and less likely to argue – even when you're overtired.

Agree not to talk about it after midnight. Plan how you want to handle the baby's night wakings before going to bed – not in the middle of the night when patience runs thin and tempers can start to flare. "At 1:30 in the morning is not the time to make a new decision or come up with a new philosophy," says Jodi Zisser, a therapist in New York City who works with many new parents. "At that point, you just need to get through the moment. You can discuss it as a couple the following day."

Accept that you won't get enough sleep. "You will never get enough sleep, so normalize it," says Nusbaum. This is your new reality and you might as well try to embrace it.

Be kind to each other. This is hard for everyone with a young baby. "Don't think you're doing something wrong," says Nusbaum. "Nobody is doing it better than you." So cut each other a break whenever possible. And forgive each other in advance for any tense interactions that might occur at 2 a.m. when you're not at your best – you can hug it out in the morning.

Take comfort from knowing you're both in this together. And if all else fails, there's always coffee.

Tips from our site parents on teaming up for night duty

Sleep when the baby sleeps

"Once he is down for the night,we go to bed. If he wakes up I will feed him, and if he is fighting going back to sleep my husband takes him."
— babyg2037

Let your partner choose how he wants to be involved, not whether.

"I ask him, 'Do you want to do the dishes or get the baby to sleep?' He usually picks the baby."
— A our site member

Take turns

"I work three 12-hour days per week, and on nights when both my husband and I work, I take anything before 4 a.m., and he takes anything after. If it's a rough night, we alternate turns."
— CallMeBubblesDarling

"With our baby getting up every other hour to feed, it gave the other parent a good two- or three-hour until it was their turn. As time went on and our baby slept longer, we still continued taking turns. Now that our baby is only getting up two to three times at night (sometimes only once when we're lucky), we take turns giving each other more sleep. One night I may get up the few times for our baby to eat and be changed, other times my partner does. That way, we each have a few nights of a solid six to seven hours of sleep."
— kayg915

"My husband and I have been on shifts since the beginning. I'm on call [for night wakings] from 10 p.m. to 3 p.m., and he's on call thereafter so we both can sleep. It works because it gives me a chance to pump around 1 or 2 a.m."
— MrsYBB

"We do one week on, one week off, which gives the other person an entire week to catch up on sleep and means we never have to argue about whose turn it is. We both work full-time and earn comparable incomes, so I think it's only fair to split duties 50/50."
— Wallyb2013

Coordinate and communicate

"We agreed to let her cry for 10 minutes. Being on the same page about that made it easier for us to get through those times – and made it feel like a joint success when she stopped crying and went to sleep."
— A our site member

"I breastfeed her at 9:30 p.m., and he picks her up and transfers her to the bassinet. Then at 4:30 a.m. when she wakes up, he changes her and hands her to me to breastfeed. She then sleeps until 7 or 8 o'clock. We both work full-time, and he is a huge help."
— sebatch

Negotiate

"We both work, but we made an agreement before our son was born that my husband would be the one who gets up most at night. I'm a horrible sleeper, and it takes me forever to fall asleep whereas he is out as soon as his head hits the pillow. However, we also agreed that I would change the majority of the diapers because he doesn't deal well with body fluids."

We do not anticipate the challenges our children will have to face - but that does not mean that we cannot prepare them for them. Flexibility, being able to overcome inevitable obstacles, is a very useful thing to give them.

Avoid these phrases if you want to raise a strong child (Fotу: iStock) This will help them to stand up for failure rather than get stuck in the situation. However, there are a few sentences that prevent us from learning this - avoid them if you want to raise a strong child

"You're fine."

Even though it is an encouraging and gregarious expression, it may seem that it can really make a child feel that he or she does not trust his or her senses. It is practically a synonym for "this is it and ready". Instead, it is advisable to let the child's feelings be validated, assuring him / her of his / her tone and body language that he / she is confident that he / she will be okay. For example, if a child falls and scratches the field, you can take care of it and help us make it an emergency. You don't have to pick it up and you can't cry. Let's walk to it, look at the mourning, and ask if you are okay.This attitude will help the child to understand that the baby is yes, hurt, and his or her sensations are okay and will heal.

"I'll fix it!"

Sometimes it is just because of hurry or because it is bad to see hesitancy, it is easier to fix things instead of kids. Of course does not mean that they cannot be helped, but that they cannot be done instead.Sometimes it is easier to put on your shoes instead of talking to children about having a conflict with another parent instead of letting them resolve it, but in the long run, these things cost more than they use. It is advisable to provide a minimum amount of help so that they can resolve the matter themselves. For example, give verbal instructions on how to tie your shoes ("Is the rabbit coming now?"), Or show one of the shoes how to tie it and let them tie it.

"It's easy, you can do it."

While this little sentence may seem ludicrous, in fact, telling a child the task of being lightweight may just make you feel discouraged. Instead, it's better to say "I know this is difficult, but I think you are capable, "to say the least, that we are confident in our abilities.

"It may not succeed."

You shouldn't feel that your child is about to fall and get hurt, but if you see your child doing something that is unpleasant to you, try to assess the situation. Are you still likely to get hurt? Do you have a way to protect your child so he doesn't get it? If we constantly push our kids to take care of themselves because they may be hurt or fall, they will make them feel unsafe. It is up to each parent to assess for themselves what level of danger he / she can bear and what he / she does not. This child will probably change with age, but it is important that the children themselves learn what is at stake and when they can take a little risk and try something new.

"I give up."

The most effective way to raise a strong kid is to set a good example. It doesn't matter if the child sees a new thing when faced with a challenge, the parent will either give up or calmly face the task. It is important for the child to see that we are struggling and that this is completely okay.

"Calm down."

If you want to teach your child how to calm down in times of stress, then it is not the right way to say "calm down." It is more effective to say "let's take some air now," or squat down on it and breathe it all together.Gradually we can teach the child techniques to control their senses. This can be a respite from the people, a wish for a cuddle, a crush on a plush animal, or a walk in nature.

"I packed everything for you."

By making your child's life too much and losing the ability to cope with the smaller challenges alone, we also deprive them of the power to make them stronger. For example, a 3-year-old can warn you to take the snack box and your backpack to the car yourself, not to carry it instead, and in 6 years we can make a list of the to-do list for the morning to go through. A 9-year-old can be trusted to take charge of his or her own business, but of course they all go well with the child. Gradually increasing your responsibility will help them feel successful. Of course, every parent loves a child and wants to give him or her comfort and happiness, and to have a good day, but in the long run, we do our best if we teach them the skills they can do to make themselves.

"You are too small for this."

Sometimes kids want to get into things they aren't ready for. It's easy to say this is too difficult or too small for them to do, but it is more expedient to give them a task that they can solve according to their age. For example, "a thousand pieces puzzle requires a lot of practice, so why not start with the hundred pieces you get for your birthday?" With sentences like these, we encourage kids to do things that they can be successful at, without telling us that they are incapable of something.

"No way!"

Let's examine how many times we tell a child something that carries the meaning "Don't do it!" We are so saddened to give birth when we see that we are holding the cutlery badly and that all food is going to fall, or if we notice that they are picking up the wrong shoes. But why can't things go wrong sometimes? It's okay if the child has to stop and fix the problem afterwards.In such a case, be there with the child, for example, when he or she is cleaning up the fallen food and helping him or her if necessary. We can also show him the closest thing to doing, for example, saying, "Look, if you hold the cutlery, you will not drop the dough."

"Then you think."

Although we want to reassure our child that they are competent, this does not mean that we are leaving them alone. On the contrary, children will be more likely to buy new things and try new things if they know we can stand by. something." Involve them in the process and know that they can count on us if they need help.It is difficult to raise a strong child because we often have to see our baby fail. This is hard for a parent, but it's important to think at this point that you are not failing for us, but just allowing them to face the small challenges of life alone, so when the really big challenges come, and do it for him.Related links:
