Your Child’s World of Play

Posted on March 5, 2015 by Dee Clark

Play is the highest form of learning. ~Albert Einstein Play is our brain’s favorite way of learning. ~Unknown We don’t stop playing because we grow old. We grow old because we stop playing. ~George Bernard ShawImagination is where your child lives. When you play with him, you enter his world.

For a parent to be able to spend half an hour of uninterrupted one-on-one time with his or her child is often seen as a luxury, especially in families with more than one child. However 30-minute blocks of uninterrupted one-on-one time, where you as a parent are giving your undivided attention to your child, can be one of the most beneficial and valuable things you can provide for your child.

Things Found In My Kitchen

Posted on February 26, 2015 by Dee Clark

There are things found in my kitchen, unfamiliar, bizzarre, and abberant.

They kind of freaked me out at first.

I had never seen most of them before much less prepare or eat them; Blackfoot Paua, Crayfish, Home-Kill Lamb, and Whitebait (who eats bait?).

And some things…just do not belong in my kitchen.

Over all, I’ve managed to adapt to these extraordinary things.

But my favorite of things found in the kitchen…

are not things at all but my adorable, little people…my grand kids.

Life Is A Mixture

Life is a mixture of sunshine and rain, teardrops and laughter, pleasure and pain.

Remember, there was never a cloud that the sun wouldn’t shine through. -unknown

Cee’s Black and White Photo Chalkenge:Glass

Posted on November 24, 2014 by Dee Clark

Sea glass has become one of my favorite reasons to walk our beaches.

Seaglass forms as shattered glass is rolled and tumbled in the ocean for years until all of their edges are rounded off, and the slickness of the glass has been worn to a frosted appearance.

Life tumbles us, too. Mine smoothed a few of my rough edges. Hopefully, I’m better for it. And I’m probably not as slick as I thought I once was either. I’m sure that’s a good thing. 😜
