Cuddly toys and dust mites: Some advice on toy wash

All baby toys should be washable. Pre-washing reduces possible harmful or allergenic substances and reduces the number of dust mites. Microscopic organisms found in every home, dust mites can cause allergic reactions even when dead since it is actually their excretions that cause allergies. Nearly 40% of all Europeans suffer from some degree of household dust mite related allergies and the numbers are growing.

If your baby’s favorite toy turns out not to be washable, here is a simple but helpful trick that will kill the dust mites that are surely there. This is especially important if your baby is sensitive to allergies: put the cuddly toy in a plastic bag and store it for at least 24 hours inside the freezer. Clean it afterwords with a hot damp towel to remove the dead dust mites.

This is a great trick my mom found out about from Electrolux baby brochure. And it works fine :)

Greeting card for my mom

When I said March 8 is for all important women in my life, I haven't forget my mom. On the contrary!

As a special surprise, I made a special greeting card for my mom, with the help of my kindergarten teachers.



Happy Woman's Day, Mom! Love you! :)

International Women's Day

International Women's Day, or March 8. Or Осми Март.

For many people this is a major day of global celebration for the economic, political and social achievements of women. For women in Macedonia it is mainly a day when they receive flowers and go to restaurants to celebrate their day with cheap turbo-folk music.

However, as for my first Осми Март, my mom and I made special greeting cards for the most important women in my life: grandmothers (Ata, Duki and Baba Vujna) and my kindergarten teachers (Bube, Lile and Bile), signed and verified with my footprints and hand-prints.

I hope I'll make all of them very happy with my self-made Осми Март greeting cards!

My first петка

Yesterday I've got my first петка (five) on my hand. I've earned it because I surpassed the expectations of everyday assignments by my kindergarten teachers. In other words, I felt asleep unassisted, completely by myself.


Now I am 'скроз одлична' with GPA (grade point average) 5.00.

Tips and Tricks from Electrolux: Enjoy new life

Most young parents see the world from an entirely new perspective when a baby is born. Day-to-day schedules become more complex and the need for support in the household increases drastically. Fortunately appliances are designed to increase both baby's and her parents' comfort. However, learning how to take full advantage of the multiple benefits of household appliances is often overlooked in the rush.

Electrolux, the world's leader in home appliances, has put together a brochure, especially to help improve parents' knowledge of appliances so that you can do even more to provide for your child's well being.

It is designed to help young parents, grandparents and potentially babysitters. It provides lots of nice tips and tricks, on milk and moving to solids, on preparing home cooked meals, using cookers, dishwashers, washing and drying machines, vacuum cleaners, and all the other home appliances. It also includes some very useful tips on things you always wanted to asked about, bu you haven't had any idea who to turn to for help. Such was (for me) the list of standard symbols of fabric care you see on clothes and textiles:

You can download the whole brochure here, or visit Electrolux Baby Care website for more info.

My favorite songs

My favorite songs lately can be found at British Council web site.

If I should make a top list of my favorite songs, it would be as following:

1. Incy Wincy Spider

2. Ten little aeroplanes

3. If you're happy and you know it

There are many nice songs to watch and to sing along as well as fun stories to tell here on this web. You can download mp3 and midi files of some songs, download and print song lyrics and sheet music to some of the songs.

Have fun!
