OAKA | TOPIC PACKS FOR VISUAL LEARNERS

Ad/Gifted – The Topic Packs from Oaka books featured in this post were gifted to me in exchange for a review. However all opinions are my own.


I believe that learning isn't just for at school. Learning can happen everywhere. We use educational apps, games, toys and days out with Blake to help aid his learning. I recently received these science topic packs from Oaka Books that are suitable for KS2 children ( age 7-11 years) they look great fun for visual learners and SEN children.


I opted for the four Science KS2 packs for Blake as Science is something we love doing together. Oaka Topic Packs, make learning easier. They are clear and to the point and use three learning strategies to aid understanding and information retention.


GUIDE ON NOSTRIL PIERCINGS

Last April I made the decision to go and get my nose pierced and almost a year later I have no regrets. There are different areas of the nose you can get peirced such as septum, bridge, nostril etc. I had my nostril done as it's something that I had been wanting to do for awhile but just didn't have the confidence to actually go ahead and do.


As someone who has their nostril pierced I thought this post would be handy to share my experience and give you a bit of information if it is something that you have been considering getting done. Before I got my nose pierced I made sure I read up all about it. How its done, how to keep it clean, the healing process, how to change the stud/ring, types of jewelry. I even watched videos of it being done just so I knew what to expect and if it was right for me. I also made sure that the place I was going to get it done at was professional.

Exploring Mindfulness with Your Child

Being mindful is the act of being fully present in a particular moment, aware of what’s going on around us as well as how we are feeling and what we’re thinking. That moment-by-moment awareness can reduce stress and anxiety because it stops us worrying about things from the past or things that haven’t happened yet. With that said, it would be wise for parents to help their children become more mindful, but where to start? I have teamed up with a junior school in Leicestershire to share some advice.

Instilling a sense of respect for the environment into your child from a young age is a great idea, because it will encourage them to make sensible choices as they grow up.
