Your Child, Ages 7-11

Dear Parents,

Blooming flowers and budding trees means many kids are suffering from allergies. Learn to differentiate between allergies and illness, and find tips to help alleviate symptoms.

Science fairs are a great way for children to explore the scientific method. Help your child choose a project that interests him, and follow the steps for a successful experiment!

And lastly, your child will love creating these special homemade gifts this Mother's Day. After all, gifts made from the heart are the best gifts of all.

What's new in the FamilyEducation blogs:

"First there was bird flu and now we get to experience swine flu. Quick! Get a surgical mask, wash your hands, lock your doors, and don't go outside. No, just kidding, don't do that. Well, wash your hands, but you don't have to quarantine yourself (unless you actually have swine flu, then stay away from me!)"
