Opening Newborn Baby Gifts is Not the Only Activity – Add Games

by Edie Mindell

Although traditional baby shower games never fail and are always a success, new baby shower games are emerging and spreading across the United States. These cool, unconventional activities are different than the classics but with all the fun and more. If you are aiming for a hip, edgier baby shower with a twist from the classic, all-American baby shower, include a few of these new, trendy games that are sure to be a hit at your shower.

The “Dirty Diaper” game is one of the most clever and unusual, yet surprisingly sweet games out there. For this game, fold white cloth napkins or square pieces of white fabric into small diapers. Inside one of these mini diapers, place an unwrapped Hersheys kiss or any other chocolate bonbon. Fasten all the diapers with a baby diaper safety pin.

When guests arrive to the baby shower, hand one mini baby diaper to each person. Tell the guests to keep them closed and to not open them until instructed to do so. Then, when the time comes for all your games and activities, tell your guests that one of them has a dirty diaper. Tell them to open the diapers all at once, and whoever has the “dirty diaper,” or the chocolate bonbon inside of their diaper, wins a prize.

The Most Popular Transformers Toys

by Philip Lamont

If the girls have their Barbie, then the boy’s ultimate version will be the Transformers. I remember the glorifying feeling these toys have on me every time I see them in my room or even just in cartoons. Seldom will you meet people who dont know about them and the ever-fascinating characters.

1. Optimus Prime

He is depicted as a heroic, brave and compassionate character and has a strong sense of justice and righteousness. The original Optimus Prime transforms into a cab over semi truck then truck’s cab transforms into the robot mode of Prime himself, equipped with vast strength and armed with a laser rifle. Did you know that he’s name in Japan is Convoy?

2. Bumblebee

Of all the Transformers characters, Bumblebee is my favorite. Not only that he is adorably bad-ass but his prowess in Espionage proves to be perfect to his size (compared to other big transformers). Of all his transforming modes, The Volkswagen Beetle has been the most popular and my personal favorite too. And who could forget that unforgettable motto of his: “The least likely can be the most dangerous.”

3. Megatron

He is the worst guy of all in the Transformer universe. He is very powerful and utterly ruthless. His imposing robot form is dominated by his primary weapon – his arm-mounted fusion cannon and is best seen in his Jet form that does not only look slick but poses great danger because of speed and weapon’s attack capabilities up in the air.

Family – Saving Your Family Life

by Mona Hagen

Psychologists pay all due attention to family life. A family unit is the most important unit as far as the demographic structure of any country?s population is concerned. It is important that we retain the structure of the family unit as such. Most of the countries and cultures existing in this world promote family life and family as a unit. Family life can be easily declared as the most important part of any one?s social life. Family life is important as it helps shaping you as a person.

The experiences you have with your family determine what kind of a human being you will be when you grow up. In today?s world family life is even more important. It is not cushy to make your kids learn to be responsible in the fast pace of life which we experience today. When you are a part of the family you automatically learn to be responsible for other family members. You learn to share whatever you have with the others. You feel the affection and love which only your family can give you. In this era family life is thus even more important.

Although in different regions of the world the family ties are apparently a bit different but in fact the ties are almost alike. The way we feel for our family members is the same no matter what part of the world we belong to. All these points establish that the family life is very important and all the people belonging to a family must place in their best to make their experience with their family even better.
