How to Travel With a Two-Year-old



You and your toddler can eat healthy while traveling.



When you decide to take that family vacation, if you will be traveling by car or minivan, there will be several things to take into consideration. A two-year-old’s time span is somewhat different than an adult‘s. So for that reason you want to be as adequately prepared, especially if you are traveling long distances such as 9-13 hours or more. That can be a long time for a two-year-old.

1.For starters if your two-year-old is not already potty trained, you might not want to start potty training around your travel time, because when traveling that can throw all of the timing off. Whether your two-year-old is already potty trained or not be sure to take plenty of pull-ups. If you think you want to attempt to continue potty training during this time, be sure to bring his/her potty with you and try to stick as close to the schedule that you started. Also, make frequent stops so both of your can walk around and stretch your legs. Toddlers will love the walking around. This is also prevent gas and bloating.

2.You will want to have planned activities that can be played in your vehicle when your two-year-old is not sleeping. Remember you want this to be the best vacation ever. You might bring his or her favorite, book, doll, or DVD. Some two-year-olds know how to play games on laptops. If your two-year-old does, be sure to bring your laptop so he or she can play their favorite game as you travel.

3.Be sure to bring pillows and blankets for sleeping comfort while traveling. You may want to bring his or her favorite snacks such as potato chips, cookies, fruits, or pretzels. The family can sings songs while traveling in the car. Some favorite songs of two-year-olds might be “Old McDonald Had a Farm”, If You are Happy and You Know It, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Row, Row, Row Your Boat, or their ABC’s.

4.Be sure to take your stroller. It might come in handy if your two-year-old is tired and does not feel like walking.

Tips:
As you read this article, you may think of other things to add to your trip, so be creative.
Be sure to have fun and enjoy yourself and your two-year-old.
Be sure to have your medical cards and any allergy or other medicine that he or she needs, in the event of illness.
Time is one of the most precious gift to give to your two-year-old, he or she will love this.

How To Study God’s Word




You are a unique individual. No other person has your unique DNA. God wonderfully made you that way. You have a purpose. It is up to you to find out about your purpose. Those that are saved and have accepted Jesus as their personal saviour all have the Holy Spirit dwelling within them. God speaks to your spirit. One might ask, “How does God do that?” He speaks through the word that he has given you for life. In order to find out what God wants you to know, you need to study Gods word. His word is in the Bible.

1. Ask God to come into your heart and Save you. Yes, He has to be invited, because He gave you free will to make your own decisions. He will not just bombard his way in. Once you are saved, you need to find a church to worship with other followers of Christ.

2. Then find a Bible Study group, usually under the guidance of the Pastor, who oversees his flock. Now you don’t have to go to church, again it is your decision. It is not enough to come and sit at Bible Study with the pastor and other followers either. You must study to show your self approved. This is a part of your Christian Ministry. God’s Word is quick (alive) and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intent of the heart. Hebrews 4:12. Now God said it. Not my words, but His words. Use your spiritual ear to hear God.

3.When you study God’s word, you cannot take all of the words in the bible literally. For example, look at the scripture John 3:16 “For God so Loved the world, that He gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. “ Have you ever thought about what everlasting life really is?

a. Look up the word everlasting in the Bible Concordance. I use a Strong’s Bible Concordance. The words are listed alphabetically.

b. To the right of the word everlasting will be scriptures. See the scripture John 3:16.

c. Beside that scripture to the right will be a number in italic print. The number you see should be number 166. The number for the Hebrew print is in bold print. Note the different prints.

4.a. Toward the back of the concordance there will be a Hebrew section and a Greek section. Look in the Greek section. Look for the number 166.

b. To the right of it will be the Greek word for everlasting which is alonios.

c. Then it gives you how to pronounce the word which will be ahee-o’-nee-os.

d. Then it gives the meaning of the word which is from 165; perpetual (also used of past time , or past and future as well:--eternal, for ever, everlasting, world(began).

e. The 165 listed above will give you more information about the meaning of everlasting.

Now congratulate yourself, you have completed one of the most important part of studying God’s word. So look words up. Find the true meaning words.

What you Need: A Spiritual Ear. A Bible. A Bible Concordance

How to make money from Consignment Shops














How to make money or purchase great deals from consignment shops. I have done it. It has been a great experience for me. I shop regularly at consignments. I love going to the web site and seeing my items that have been sold.

1. Find a consignment shop in your state by visiting resale shopping.com

2. Take the items you want to sell to the shop. The shop will need your name, phone number, address, and you will be asked if you want the items back if they do not sell. If you do not want them back, they will be donated to a charity of the consignments choice.

3. The consignment shop will explain that there is a 50/50 or a 60/40 split of the money from the sale.

4. Then you sit back and wait for the item to sell. Some consignments have web sites so you may check when your item sold and the amount of money that you made.
