Is Your Kid a Rhinotillexomaniac?
What is rhinotillexomaniac anyway?
Actually it’s a more complicated scientific name for nose-picking.
- rhino= nose
- tillexis= habit of picking at something
- maniac= obsession with something
Have you ever caught someone nose-picking? Well, if you haven’t, maybe everybody around you do it in secret. Do you know that there are some doing it openly without embarrassment?
Although taboo in some cultures, there are doctors who see it as beneficial. The finger is capable of reaching parts of the nose that a handkerchief or tissue is unable to, thus keeping the nose cleaner.
However, it might cause nasal infections and nosebleeds. Now, have you ever caught your kids nose-picking? Or even doing mucophagy–picking a nose and eating it? The last one is even worse ’cause eating the bacteria-rich dried mucus offers a boost to the immune system, and is analogous to immunization.
Then, how to stop them from doing it?
- Keep their fingers busy
- If your kids are in a certain age where you can discuss stuff with them, explain why you prefer that they don’t do it
- If they can’t stop it and you’ve done your best to help them and they don’t seem to be able to do so, check with a psychologist ’cause it can be related to their psychological condition.

Tips for Dyeing Leather
As much as we can have some leather dyeing at many leather shop or repair all over the town, it will be good to know what should we know about dyeing leather. Who knows, we might need the knowledge one day. The first thing to do is to choose a leather dye appropriate to your piece of leather. Next, clean the surface of the leather and then dampen the leather with a spray bottle of water or a sponge. Apply the leather dye in long, even strokes across the surface of the leather. Make sure that the colour remains even. And finally, allow the leather to dry thoroughly, and then buff it with a clean, soft cloth to remove any excess dye and to give the leather a polished look. Good luck!

Investing Our Money the Conservative Way
We all understand how it is not easy to save some money, especially after deducting all our hard-earned money with all daily expenses. While the money is not huge, we need to invest the money so that it can become productive. If we do not take any big risk on investing the money, the option of indexed annuities might be a good solution. This indexed annuity is an alternative savings plan for conservative investors. It has the benefit of more potential return while providing the traditional benefits of being an annuity. In additional to all that, it offers tax-deferred growth.

When to Introduce Kids to Exercise?
As early as possible!
I started it with Olivia when she was less than 1 year old–when she started to walk. She seemed enjoying it.
Most kids would enjoy it ’cause basically they like moving around. All you need to do are:
- first show them how fun exercising is by adding some music and funny moves
- ask them, “Wanna have fun with Mom and Dad?”
- let them express their own ways of exercising
- next lead them to better ways when they already find it fun
- make it as your family fun habit
- latter on, when they seem to understand your words more, also explain to them why people need to exercise
This way, you’ll have healthy happy kids!

How My Kids Be Friends with Each Other
Olivia (5) and Jerome (2) are getting along very well up until now.
Many friends of mine and my husband’s asked how that could happen.
Actually it’s so simple. When Olivia was 2, my husband and I decided to get her a sibling on her 3rd birthday. Since then, we told her almost everyday about her opportunity to get a friend, a little brother (Didn’t know why we said brother instead of sister, luckily we got a son, not a daughter, it might confuse Olivia).
So, she made friend with him even before he was conceived. I think that’s why now they get along very well with each other.

Spending Time With Your Teenage Daughter
By Audrey Okaneko
If your kids are like mine, then spending time in their room, on the phone, or on the computer instant messaging is their idea of a great time.
Here are many activities I’ve participated in with my teens over the years:
•Starbucks – My daughter would do this daily if I said yes. We will buy our coffees and then sit and chat. No more taking them home, as home means either on the phone or on the computer.

What to Wear when Pregnant?
For a woman, being pregnant can be a difficult and wonderful time. Her body shape and size are changing rapidly and she may no longer feel like she looks like her old self. When you are pregnant, it is difficult to find a dress that is fashionable and which can bring out your style. Some pregnant women choose to buy regular (non-maternity) pants and jeans in a size larger than their normal size, instead of maternity pants. Most women prefer to invest in a few pairs of maternity pants or jeans, which feature a stretchy tummy panel that will expand as your tummy expands and provide comfortable support. Do not avoid dresses. There are some patterns of maternity dresses that fit a fuller figure during pregnancy and will you look beautiful. Pregnancy is a time when a woman needs to look her best self and feel her best self. Whatever the styles are, that is always possible.
