I am a big on emphasizing handwriting. In this age of typing or printing I always feel that is a very necessary skill for everyone. Even for my son, it leads to fine motor skills. Yes, using two of your fingers and concentrating to make an alphabet does require your brain to work. I even…

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends. As someone mentioned it is just a one day event being overlapped by Black Friday sales and Cyber Monday sales. I grew up in a socialist India in the 80s and purchasing something was limited to needs. I have a list that I want, but those are not…

I put away our white board this week. With so many years work on it, it had become more of a black board than a white board. I also did not need such a big board. My boy who has so many obsessions to things around our house didn’t make a sound as me and…
