How Bakugan Toys Help Kids Practice Math

Executive summary about Toys Kid by Frugalmomi

The new Bakugan Toy craze is a great way to get your kids some extra math practice . Things you'll need:
1. Bakugan toys at least 4 or 5
2. the Bakugan metal gate cards so they open up ( around 9 or more)
3. small pieces of paper cut in half

Here is simple way to have fun and practice math with Bakugans

1. Write numbers(1-9) on the 20 pieces of paper.

2. Lay the pieces of paper with numbers or math problems under the bakugan toy gate cards that are laid on a game board or table.

3. Then as in the Bakugan game, roll two toy Bakugans and whichever two numbers they land on you have to do that math problem or you have to figure out the math problem that is under the gatecard.

4. After they finish their turns place more number cards or problem cards under the gatecards.

All About Bakugan


Executive summary about The New Bakugan Toy by Billy Bobby

This game relies on the Japanese animated series. In the popular TV series, a pack of kids fight to save the world through playing Bakugan strategy games. Do you need anything to play the game? The necessary items necessary to play Bakugan are the playing cards and the spheres that turn into creatures. Along with the Bakugan starter packs that come in a selection of different colorshues and which hold three Bakugan marble balls and 3 personality cards, there also are the battle packs, booster packs, bakugan arena and bakugan launcher to think about as well . Just like gaming cards that kids trade, Bakugan toys are made to be collected.


How do I play the game? Similar to how a trading-card game is played, Bakugan is a strategic game. The marbel breaks open when it hits the cards.


The cards within each pack represent various characters that are on the tv show. However if two marbles which are utilized by opposing players happen to on the same card then an imaginary battle happens between them.

3 Ways To Inspire A Love Of Reading In Your Children
Executive summary about Toys Child by Winfred


If your child is showing little interest in reading, there is hope.
1. The Early Bedtime trick.
Two words "Early Bedtime". You might be wondering how an increase in sleep can help your child to spend more time reading.

2. Summer reading incentives.
If your local library does not have a summer reading program, then create one at home, with rewards for reading books. You can use a Monopoly board and allow your child to move one space for each book he reads.

3. Read the book before you can see the movie.
We won't go see any movie until we've read the book. Whether my husband and I read the book to the kids or they read it alone, each member of the family can go see the movie after the book is read. So, if your child is looking forward to seeing the next Chronicles of Narnia movie, the next Harry Potter movie, they'll have to read the book first.

3 Creative Ways to Play with Your Kids

Executive summary about Play Toys by Trevin Wax

I miss the sounds of children playing outside in the neighborhood. There are many kids in our neighborhood, but few venture outside to play anymore. I suspect a good number are indoors playing video games or watching movies.
Give your kids access to non-stop entertainment, and you might begin to miss the sounds of children playing inside the house too.
1. Instead of watching a movie, create your own movie story.
In five minutes, organize the toys with your child. If you need a flood, have blue sheets nearby. Then, create an iTunes playlist with movie music that you can play in the background. Here’s our favorite five-song playlist for a twenty-minute story:
a. “The Wardrobe” – from The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe.
b. “Prince Caspian Flees” – from Prince Caspian
c. “Battle at Aslan’s How” – from Prince Caspian
d. “Return of the Lion” – from Prince Caspian
You can anticipate the musical cues, and begin to play with the toys accordingly. The music makes the playing much more exciting, and it gives you a creative way of adding drama to the story. It’s fun.
2. Instead of playing Mario, let your son be Mario.
Set up an obstacle course in your living room.

3. See who can find Waldo and his friends the fastest.
For Christmas, we got Timothy the six-pack set of “Where’s Waldo?” books. It’s fun enough to look for Waldo and his friends together.
Happy playing!
What Infants Are Learning
Your baby in 1-3 months will even give you a smile! Encourage the learning process by talking to your little one, responding to his vocal expressions, and providing colorful age-appropriate toys.
You'll now see your baby's personality emerge. Your baby will be carefully watching your facial expressions and listening to your voice, responding to you with coos and gurgles, and around 2 months, respond to your smile with a smile. Babies also start to explore their surroundings with their hands, reaching out, swatting at, and grasping for a favorite toy.

Create an Obstacle Course for Children


Executive summary about an obstacle course by Christine Pollock


Planning an obstacle course is almost as fun as running through one. If the children are competing, try to set up two identical courses parallel to each other.
Lay pieces of string in straight lines to create a balance beam. If the children are making an obstacle course inside, use books on the floor for children to weave around.
Talk with the children about how they are going to use the course. For example, big kids might have to skip through the course while the little children run.
Big kids can also dribble balls around the string while little children carry the balls and place them in specified locations.
Tell the kids that they can create a high-energy obstacle course using small spaces and lots of imagination if they want to.

Infant Toys To Help With Development


Good toys help children develop the necessary mental, physical, and social skills to grow up to be responsible adults, and also help to relate to the ‘adult’ world around them and help them feel connected with grown-ups. Here are some toys you can gift your infant to develop necessary skills:

1. Rattles
Infants love playing with rattles.

2. Baby Mobiles
A baby mobile is ideal in developing your child’s visual and auditory focus.

3. Baby Books
Reading books aloud to your child also develops a deeper bonding with your child, as he will love your presence and the sound of your voice.

4. Baby Mirror
A baby mirror helps your children become aware of themselves and help them learn spatial relations and this aids in development of self-preservation skills to an extent.

5. Stuffed Animals
It helps your kid develop social interaction skills. If the stuffed toy is also textured and colored with bold primary tones, your infant will develop touch and visual realization of the world around him.

However, since we can’t be too casual when picking toys for kids we should keep some guidelines in mind before forking over cash to the person behind the toy store-counter:
1. Large
2. Safe Materials
3. Primary Bold Colors
4. Textured
