You can actually go into the shower stall with your baby to wash them there. When the shower is used, it is important to check the water temperature and the force of the spray. If the water spray is very strong, the faucet can be turned down so that less water exits the shower head. Babies do not react well to high-powered water, so it is always best to make sure that the shower puts out more of a light drizzle than a strong blast. Since most babies do not like the feeling of the water hitting their skin, especially their face, you can use their own body to block the shower spray.  Use your hand to guide the water onto the baby. Cup your hands and rinse your baby off by gentle dumping cupped water onto them. Keep in mind that the baby will be slippery while wet, so it is important to be sure that you have a good hold on your baby.  One of the easiest poses for washing a baby in the shower is for you to have the baby's back against your abdomen with your arm wrapped around the baby's abdomen. In this position, nearly all of the baby's body can be reached easily and you can gently press the baby against your abdomen if they start to slip.

You can choose to cook it for an additional 5 to 6 hours on high, if you want to cook it faster. Slow cookers vary greatly between models. If you know that the low setting on your slow cooker cooks fairly hot, you may want to reduce the cooking time by 2 hours. Older slow cookers tend to cook at a lower temperature than newer models. It takes a long time for the slow cooker to reach the same temperature. Each time you open the cooker before that point, you should add 20 to 30 minutes of cooking time. You can also insert a fork to test if it is done. It should be very tender.

You can also learn techniques for forcing a burp, or what you might call a burp on demand. First of all, sit up straight in order to maximize your lung capacity.  Relax your lungs. Then, exhale in a normal breathing pattern, until your lungs feel neither full or empty. Expand your throat and jaws and then suck air in your mouth. Pull until you feel an air bubble enter your throat. When you have done this, block the front of your mouth with your tongue.  To do this, take your tongue and touch it to the top of your mouth. Forcing air into the air into your throat can take a little practice. You don't want to inhale so forcefully that you swallow the air, otherwise you will feel more bloated. Try to keep it in your throat. Release the air slowly by lowering your tongue and parting your lips, letting it escape. This is another way to force a burp that some people find easier. Close the airway at the back of your throat, but push out as though you were exhaling. This can put enough extra pressure on your stomach to push an air pocket up your esophagus. If the above technique is unsuccessful, try repeating the first steps but swallowing the air in your throat. First, exhale as much air as you can to empty your lungs. Take a deep breath and hold it as long as you can. Exhale, inhale another deep breath, and try to swallow the air.  This may not come naturally. One way trick that might work is to drink a glass of water while holding your breath. Pinch your nose, too, to ensure that you do not exhale any of the air. Once you have swallowed enough air, you should feel more pressure building up in your abdomen and esophagus. Open your mouth and allow a resounding belch to escape.   Tighten your abdominal muscles when you feel the burp rising. This should maximize both its force and volume. Practice your burp on demand. Over time, the procedure will become easier and less uncomfortable.

You can also use a bucket or other container if you don't want to fill your sink. Use this method for fruits and vegetables with a lot of surface area (such as grapes), that are attached or packed tightly (like strawberries or blueberries) or have deep crevices (cauliflower, broccoli, and leafy greens). Make sure there is a bit of movement here so that the outside of the produce can be thoroughly cleaned. This method is effective for grapes and other foods which have a lot of surface area and are tightly packed. Because they are immersed in water, the water can cover their entire outer surface, something that is considerably harder to do with just a rinse. Vegetables like cauliflower, broccoli, and leafy greens need extra attention because they have lots of places where dirt and microbes can hide.  Leafy greens have their own particular method for cleaning. First, separate the leaves first. Then, soak the leaves and drain them in a strainer or colander. Repeat this process. The goal here is dilution. Once finished, dry with a clean towel or salad spinner.  Soaking all kinds of fruits and vegetables -  not just your greens, but fruits like strawberries too - has recently become popular. Soaking is a restorative process that can revive your produce, enhance its taste and prolong its life. Use warm, soapy water to wash your colander, salad spinner or basin when ready to move on to another fruit or vegetable.

You can also use a silicone baking mat if you have one, but do not use plastic wrap since it’s not oven safe. Look for large grained sugar, usually labeled as “raw” or “cane.” Granulated sugar has much finer grains and will yield less sparkly results. If your goal is to add color rather than shine, granulated sugar will work fine. Use an offset spatula or spoon to make sure the sugar is evenly distributed. The thinner you spread the sugar, the more quickly it will bake. Once it’s fully dried out, remove the tray from the oven right away: if you over-bake the sugar, it will melt and create a sticky mess! The color and sparkle may fade significantly over time, so try to keep the containers away from direct light.

You can also use an oven to dry out petals. This method is quicker than air drying, but may cause more discoloration. To start, heat your oven to 180 degrees Fahrenheit.  Arrange the petals in a layer on a cookie sheet. Make sure the petals are not touching.  Place the cookie sheet in the oven. Heat the roses for at least 3 hours, keeping the oven door open the entire time.  Remove the tray and set it aside in a safe place where it's unlikely to be disturbed. Leave overnight. There should be no more moisture on the flowers by morning. An iron can also help dry out flowers for preservation. However, this flattens the petals significantly. If you don't want to distort the shape, you may want to try another method.  To start, heat your iron to its lowest setting. Do not add water to the iron. If there is any water in the iron, empty it.  Place the flowers between two sheets of absorbent paper. Use a book to flatten them slightly. Then, press the iron on top of the absorbent sheets for 10 to 15 seconds. Do not make any gliding motions. Simply press the iron down. A microwave can also help dry out flower petals for preservation. This process is very quick, which is its main advantage. However, pressing flowers under a microwave can cause them to brown.  You should buy a professional microwave flower press, which you can buy online or at a local craft store, for the best results. However, if you don't have a professional flower press you can make one by placing the petals between two ceramic tiles. From there, you can tie the tiles together with non-flammable string or twine.  Place the press in the microwave. Heat it for 30 to 60 seconds at a time. Allow the press to cool off completely between sessions.  Check the flowers periodically. Once they appear completely dry, you can remove them and use them for craft purposes.

You can always try planting garlic you bought from the grocery store, but you'll have a much higher chance of having a successful crop if you buy garlic cloves, or seeds, from a plant nursery that stocks varieties that grow well in your area. Shop online for a wider selection of garlic and choose one to your liking. Some strains are stronger, some are hardy during cold temperatures, and so on.  The garlic stocked in grocery stores is often shipped in from faraway places, so it won't necessary be a strain that works with your climate and soil type. Garlic sold in grocery stores has usually been treated with chemicals to make it last longer on the shelf. It's harder to grow treated garlic than untreated garlic. If you live in a northern area that gets a hard frost, it is recommended that you plant garlic in the fall. Garlic overwinters well, and planting it early will cause the bulbs to be larger and more flavorful than a spring-planted crop. However, if you live in a southern area that doesn't have cold winters, plant your garlic early spring instead.  If you're planting garlic in the fall, plan to plant it 6 - 8 weeks before the ground freezes. If you're planting garlic in the spring, plant it as soon as the ground can be worked in February or March. Choose a spot with full sun and well-draining soil. Work the soil to a depth of 4 inches using a garden rake or hoe. Enrich the soil with compost to add nutrients that will help the garlic grow strong and healthy. If you wish, prepare to grow the garlic in a pot. Choose a pot wide and deep enough to hold the garlic you wish to grow, and fill it with rich potting soil. Divide the bulb into individual cloves, keeping the papery skin intact. Plant the cloves 4 inches apart and about 2 inches deep. Make sure that the flat root side is pointing down and the tapered side is pointing up - otherwise the garlic will grow in the wrong direction. Cover the planted garlic cloves with soil and pat gently.

You can ask your primary care doctor for a referral. If you live in the United States, you can search the American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology list for a board-certified allergist. Sometimes the cause of your reaction will be obvious. If, for example, you ate a peanut and 10 minutes later your experienced anaphylaxis, there is a pretty clear culprit. If, however, you just went for a walk outside and experienced an allergic reaction, there are a multitude of allergens you may have encountered that triggered your attack. To help your allergist, write down everything you remember about the events leading to your reaction- what did you eat? Touch? Where were you? Did you take any medicine? These questions will all help your allergist determine the cause of your allergy. After talking with you and getting your history, the allergist will probably perform a skin test to determine what is causing your allergy. During a skin test, a drop of several potential allergens is placed on the skin, sometimes with a slight prick of the skin. After about 20 minutes, if you are allergic to a substance, a red, itchy bump will appear. This signifies to the allergist that this substance is causing your allergy, and he will treat you accordingly. Sometimes the allergist will also order an allergy blood test. This may be because you are on medication that could corrupt a skin test, you have a skin condition, or the allergist may just want confirmation of the allergy with another test. Blood tests are usually done in a lab and take several days to produce results. Even if your reaction was not severe, you should ask your allergist for a prescription for an EpiPen. Your symptoms may be worse the next time you have an attack, and having an EpiPen around could easily save your life.

You can avoid falling for someone by devoting your time to your own needs and interests rather than to them, or thoughts of them. Distract yourself from your romantic yearnings by pouring your energy into a hobby you love. Or take up an activity that will be all-consuming and leave you little time to focus on your romantic feelings for someone. For example, perhaps you pour your energy into a hobby like painting, writing, playing music, or singing. You could also take up an activity like sports or join a team at school to fill your time. Though you may be tempted to keep your romantic feelings to yourself, you may try talking to those closest to you about your emotions. Tell close friends about how you are trying to avoid falling in love with someone. Speak to a close family member about your conflicted feelings. Often, talking to someone who will listen to you about how you are feeling can make you feel less alone and confused.  You may also be able to get some perspective on your situation from a friend or family member. They may also offer advice or suggestions on how you can avoid falling in love with the person. For example, you may say to a friend, “I have feelings for someone but I do not want to fall for them. What do I do?” Or you may say to a family member, “I think I’m falling in love with someone but I don’t think it’s a good idea. Do you have any advice on what I should do?” If your romantic feelings for the person are overwhelming and undeniably, you may want to consider telling them how you feel. Though the conversation may be awkward, being honest about your emotions and telling the person can make you feel better. It can also open the door to the possibility that the person may feel the same way about you. If you do decide to talk to the person about your feelings, you should ask them if you talk just the two of you in person and in private. You may then tell them, “I think I am developing romantic feelings for you. I’ve tried to deny these feelings but I think it may be better to be honest...

You can be as creative as you like with your family tree. A basic family tree can be made from paper, poster board, or felt. For a larger, more detailed tree, use butcher paper or firm packaging paper. If you'd like a tree that you can paint or add detail to, consider using cloth or artist's canvas. For a truly unique family tree, stick a family tree decal to the wall where you want to display it or hang photographs in the outline of your family tree. Use the informational squares that you made for each family member and secure them to the tree using glue or tape. Depending on the type of tree you're making, you might be able to write the information directly on the tree. If you're writing the information on the tree, consider first writing out the information using pencil, so you can correct any mistakes. Then write over the pencil using ink. If you're using a downloadable template or just want your family tree to have a polished look, pay to have a professional printing service print the tree. Using a professional service is a good idea if you'd like the family tree in a large format that you'll frame. If you're including photographs, ask the printing service if they can digitally restore any old or damaged images. Once you've secured all of the information to the family tree, add embellishments and decorations. Consider adding scrap booking stickers or drawing illustrations around the tree. You can also include other textures to make the tree really stand out. For example, cut out leaves for the tree using wallpaper, maps, or scrap booking paper. If you're making a family tree as part of a school project, have your child press their thumbs into ink. Make leaves on the tree from your child's thumbprints.

You can better control your salt intake by purchasing whole foods at the grocery store, rather than eating packaged or processed food products, or frequently eating out at restaurants.  With packaged and processed foods, you can't do anything about the sodium the company adds to the food product. However, if you make the same thing yourself using whole foods, you have the opportunity to reduce or even eliminate salt. Another benefit of whole foods is that they tend to be cheaper than packaged and processed foods, so ultimately you may see a decrease in your grocery bill. When you make your grocery trip, shop the perimeter of the store first. This is typically where the produce, meats, and dairy are located. When you shop the aisles, start with the outer aisles and work your way in. Commercial breads, canned soups, and cold cuts are some places where sodium will sneak into your diet, even if the foods you're eating don't taste particularly salty.  You may have difficulty if you try to eliminate or significantly reduce the amount of salt in your diet all at once. Your taste buds have become accustomed to it, and you may initially find foods bland or even distasteful. It takes time for your taste buds to adjust to less salt. Canned soups and sandwiches are some of the most common foods that sneak in significant amounts of sodium into your diet. A single bowl of soup or a sandwich made with cold cuts may contain as much sodium as you're supposed to consume in an entire day. If you regularly eat canned soups, look for those that have no salt added, or that indicate they are low-sodium on the front of the label. Typically the low-sodium banner will be green. In most grocery stores, the low-sodium versions of popular soups can be found alongside that brand's other soups, for roughly the same price. You also can easily find soup recipes online or in a cookbook that are made using whole food ingredients. Make your soup in large batches and freeze the excess so you can enjoy it for a longer period of time. Rather than...

You can brighten up a room significantly by choosing a white or neutral color scheme for your room. Paint the walls white, or a light grey or tan to brighten up your room. If white or neutral colors are too boring for you, then choose light, pastel versions of your favorite color like a pastel blue or green. The color of your ceiling will make all the difference in the world in terms of lighting and brightness. If you are working with a white or neutral color scheme, make sure to paint your ceiling white. If you are working with a pastel color scheme, then make sure to paint the ceiling a shade lighter. If your ceiling contains wooden beams, paint these white as well to further brighten up your room. If you must have vibrant colors, then restrict it to accents like door or window frames/trims and moldings. You can also add color to your room without taking away brightness by adding vibrant-colored décor pieces to your room; for example, vibrant-colored upholstery, pillows, rugs, candles, lamp shades, vases, and artwork. Paint the door and window frames your favorite color while keeping your walls and ceiling white, for example.

You can bring a camera if you have one, or use the camera on your smartphone if you have one. Either way, make sure you take lots of pictures of your trip. It can make the car ride go faster if you’re looking for new and exciting things to take pictures of.  It’s okay to want to post your photos to social media, but try to wait to do so until later in the day. That way you don’t miss anything while you’re picking the perfect filter. Keep a small journal with you to record those thoughts. You can write about something cool or funny you saw, an interesting conversation you had in the car, or how you feel about the trip itself. One of the best ways to entertain yourself on a long trip is to make the trip part of your adventure. Map out fun places to stop: interesting landmarks, good restaurants, or even pretty parks. This can break up the trip and make it more entertaining. To find fun places to stop on your trip, look up the tourism websites of placing you'll be visiting or passing through. You can also look for travel guide books for those places, too.

You can build a basic house that resembles your real life home or any cliché looking house. Using stairs to make a roof and avoiding pure box shapes can help a lot in making even a basic house look really nice. Using cobblestone or regular stone, make yourself a castle complete with dungeon. You can even use Green wool to make yourself a giant dragon to slay! Look at pictures of real medieval castles to get ideas on the layout you want. Fences are useful for making turrets at the tops of towers. Using a few tricks, you can make an underwater house in Minecraft PE. Simply build the walls up to the water's surface, fill the inside with dirt, seal the house, and then remove the dirt. Flex your creativity and create a super modern house. You can use the clean box lines and walls of glass panes to create a very cool looking house. These look great perched on a cliff. Bring out the "mine" in Minecraft and build yourself a Bat Cave. You can even include a waterfall entrance. Batmobile not included...unless you build that too. Building a mansion over the cave can add even more fun. Use redstone or other clever tricks (command blocks, if you hack your game) to make things like an elevator that takes you down to the cave. Build a giant tree and then make yourself a house that either hugs around the trunk and branches or actually fits inside the trunk itself. You can even make a whole village this way and use it to hang out with your friends. Use quartz and column blocks to make a cool Roman palace. You can even build a temple to yourself inside! Don't forget a pool out front and a road lined with Cypress trees to seal the deal! It's not a small building project by any means, but who wouldn't want to have their own Hogwarts to have adventures in. Make classrooms, the Great Hall, your house's dorm, the greenhouse, the library, and any other parts of the castle you can't live without. Don't forget the lake out front and the Quidditch pitch! Build a skyscraper and fill it with apartments. You can use mods to add command...

You can build an underground labyrinth for yourself or even people on your server. If you want to make it extra scary, get a Herobrine mod and summon him in the labyrinth. We cannot be held accountable for what may or may not appear in your pants! Make a temple to worship yourself! Of course, you can build a temple or church to anyone you want, but it's also fun to build one for yourself. Clever Minecrafters have figured out how to use a minecart system to build a high speed "interstate". Experiment with building your own scenic drive or look up plans online. Of course, the first thing you build in Minecraft is a shelter...so what better way to show that you've mastered the game than to build an epic castle? Bonus points for putting it somewhere cool, like on a mountain. Basic mob farming is useful but boring. A more interesting way to go about it is to do mob breeding. Lots of tutorials can be found online for mob breeding, so find one that works for you. Start flying up in the air and building a majestic sky home! It doesn't need to be just a house, it can be a castle. No tutorials are needed for this great building, you just need some creativity and skills! Museums are very fun and easy to build. Look at pictures online that match what you're looking for, or look at official plans of museums! For example, make versions of Five Nights at Freddy's or Clash of Clans! You can do pixel art of your own character or even a video game character.

You can build from their own understandings to develop a more sophisticated definition of “theory.” A good definition should clarify that a scientific theory is a statement intending to explain natural phenomena. Clarify to your students:  A theory is worth very little if it doesn't correctly predict all known evidence. Theories are subject to changes as new evidence becomes available. (Most theories that you will discuss in a high school science class are well-confirmed and are unlikely to be revised in any significant sense.) You will get some common answers like:  The theory of relativity: that the laws of physics are the same for all observers The theory of evolution by natural selection: that the observed changes in species occur due to selection of well adapted specimens over less well adapted specimens. Big Bang theory: that the universe began as an infinitely small point that underwent expansion to form the universe as we know it today. A fact is an objective, verifiable observation, which is the same everywhere. It can be, and has been, verified many times.  For example, we know that the germ theory of illness is a fact because we can take bacteria from someone suffering from an illness, look at that bacteria under a microscope, and then inject that bacteria into another individual, who will then get that same illness. We know that the Earth is round because we can travel due west and eventually end up where we started from. Remember, a theory is a general statement intended to explain facts. As a useful example, present your students with the development of the heliocentric theory and the facts that inform the theory.  Ancient peoples noticed peculiar points of light that “wandered” among their background. (We now know these to be the planets.) The planets moved through the sky because they, like the Earth, were orbiting around the sun, each at different speeds, different distances from the Sun. Nicolaus Copernicus is generally considered to be the first to propose this theory, and supported his...

You can buy a bouquet holder or foam block to make a wider base with which to hold your bouquet.  In place of a bouquet base, find a foam noodle bath toy and cut it to the length of your base or vase height. The open center allows you to place the brooch stems inside. You do not need to use a bouquet holder. You can add sticks or silk flower stems to make a wider vase. Place them together and wrap them with tape to secure a wider base. Insert your brooch stems into the spaces between the flower petals. Make sure to alter the color and size of the brooches that are next to each other. Gather your brooch stems until you have a full bouquet shape. Clip the wire stems with the wire cutters, if they are too long.  Use a hot glue gun. Allow the glue to dry well before you begin wrapping the ribbon. When you get to the bottom, you can wrap the bottom with ribbon vertically and rewrap it horizontally or you can leave the stems showing for 1/2 inch to 1 inch (1.3 to 2.5cm) Tuck the end of the ribbon inside the other bands of ribbon at the top. You can wrap the base with a necklace or sew on pearls.

You can buy a digital scale online or at some department stores. Make sure that the scale has a flat top so that you can weigh the peanut butter. If you don't want peanut butter to stick to your measuring cup or kitchen tools, use a non-stick kitchen spray to lubricate them before working with the peanut butter. Weighing the empty measuring cup will give you the weight of the cup itself. The tare button will zero out the scale so that you can weigh the peanut butter minus the weight of the measuring cup. If your scale doesn’t have a tare button, you’ll have to subtract the weight of your measuring cup from the overall weight to get the weight of the peanut butter. Leave the cup on the scale as you fill it up. Continue to add peanut butter until the display matches the amount you want. If you add too much, remove some peanut butter from the container.

You can buy a stone, metal or wood trough from the garden store; these tend to be fairly expensive. You can also use an old butler’s sink or metal tub from the reclamation yard. Remember that solid stone troughs will be very heavy, especially once full of soil and rocks. Try to get a trough planter with drainage holes, or, if possible, drill drainage holes in whatever planter you are using. You can make your own trough using hypertufa and a plastic storage tub or wooden crate as a mould. Hypertufa is a mix of cement (eg Portland cement) with peat and perlite; these materials lighten the mix and add texture. Usual proportions are 1:1:1. This material usually needs a little time to cure before it can be planted.  Hypertufa provides an aged stone effect but is usually a little lighter to move than a solid stone or concrete trough of the same size. Because of its texture, the hypertufa planter will acquire mosses and lichens on its surface over time. You can poke drainage holes in the trough base before it is dry.  You can also use polystyrene fish boxes that are painted grey or covered with grout. This trough will be considerably more fragile than hypertufa. Try to move your empty trough to its final location ahead of planting as it will be very heavy once filled. It’s also a good idea to raise it slightly off of the ground as this improves drainage. If you don’t have drainage holes this is less important. Remember the trough is really heavy so make sure it is very stable however you place it. Drainage is really important in a trough planter. Try to use a trough that has drainage holes. If you are using an old sink, the plug hole will provide drainage.  If you plan to build your own hypertufa one, poke some holes in the bottom while the mix is still damp.  If you aren’t able to get a trough with drainage holes then try to improve drainage as best you can when filling it. Regardless of whether the trough has draining holes or not, you should try to put a drainage layer at the bottom of the trough before the soil...

You can buy a thickening agent for your paint from a local home improvement store. Most thickening agents for latex paint are made with water-soluble hydroxyethyl cellulose which works well with the latex. Make sure the thickening agent says it works with latex paint. Read the directions on the bottle of thickening agent to find out how much to use. Typically you will add it by the tablespoon depending on how much paint you have.  For the best result, add a smaller amount than called for, and then slowly add more until you get the thickness you need. Adding more than the manufacturer’s recommended amount can cause the paint to crack and peel when applied to the wall. Use a paint stick to slowly stir the thickening agent into the paint. The paint will thicken as you stir. If the paint still isn’t thick enough, add more thickening agent in small amounts as you stir. Paint a small part of the wall to test the thickness of the paint. Let this paint dry completely before checking the results. The paint should not have cracks or be peeling in any way. If the paint looks great and has an even color, you can finish painting the rest of the wall.

You can buy any size spray bottle, or purchase multiple sizes. You can make a large bottle of perfume for your house, but you can also get a small spray bottle to keep in your purse. Make sure you get a spray cap where you push down, and not pull a trigger. These are much easier to apply perfume. You should usually purchase one large bottle, and organic vanilla tends to work the best. Getting a bottle of pure vanilla is important, because the perfume won't turn out well if the vanilla extract has sugar in it. If you're worried about the price, just remember: no matter how much you pay, it's going to be significantly less than the price of those expensive perfumes that everyone else buys! Different types of essential oils can be added to your vanilla perfume to create your own unique scent. You can buy small bottles of essential oils, and try them out to decide what you like best. Popular essential oils are rose, lavender, peppermint, chamomile and patchouli. Pour the essential oil of your choice into the spray bottle, and fill the remainder of the bottle's content with vanilla. If the spray bottle is large, then you can empty the entire essential oil bottle. If the spray bottle is smaller, fill it under half-way, and then top it off with vanilla. Shake the spray bottle well before spritzing onto your skin or into the air. Some people spray the air in front of them and walk through it to use as a body-mist.

You can buy beeswax online or at craft stores, usually in 1 lb blocks. Use a plain white bar of soap for this project. You will need equal amounts of beeswax and soap. To make your crayons you will need the following:  1 part beeswax 1 part soap Liquid food dye A microwave safe container, or double boiler A cheese grater A knife A mold, such as a silicone ice stick tray or muffin pan Non-stick spray or shortening Chop the beeswax into manageable pieces to help it melt faster. Use a cheese grater to grate the soap. Place the chopped beeswax and the grated soap into a microwave safe container. Put the container in the microwave and melt the soap and wax together. Heat the mixture in one minute intervals and watch it closely. Make sure the mixture doesn't foam. Foam will add air bubbles to your crayons.  You can also melt the soap and wax in a double boiler. Get a medium sized stock pot and fill it with water. Put the pot onto a burner over high heat and bring the water to a boil. Put the soap and beeswax into a smaller saucepan and place it on top of the pot of boiling water. Stir constantly and make sure the mixture does not foam over.  If you do get air bubbles, let the mixture sit for a few minutes. Gently stir to remove any bubbles. Once you have melted the beeswax and the soap, you can add your liquid food color. The more color you add, the more vibrant your crayons will be. If you want to make multiple colors, divide the hot wax and soap mixture into equal parts. Add different colors to each portion. Spray your molds with non-stick spray or grease them lightly with shortening. You can use silicone trays, muffin pans, or even make your own molds out of foil paper or clay. Pour the wax mixture into your molds and let them harden. It could take a few days for the crayons to set completely.

You can buy bluing solutions premixed. Dip a cotton ball into the solution and apply it to the part evenly. If you are bluing a larger piece, use a rag or brush to apply the solution. Once you have covered the piece with bluing solution, wipe it dry. Use a soft cloth, and make sure not to leave any solution in cracks or crevices. This will help ensure an even finish. Use a fine grit sandpaper (for example 800 grit) to sand the finish. Sand slowly and carefully so that you do not go through the finish. This will smooth out your finish and make it shine. Continue applying and polishing coats. When you have reached the desired color, you can polish one final time and then stop. Protect your finish by covering it in a protective oil (e.g. gun oil).

You can buy dog appeasing pheromones (DAP, also known as Adaptil), synthetic versions of the pheromones that mother dogs release when nursing their puppies. The DAP can be diffused or sprayed in your home, car, or outside. DAP are thought to make your dog feel safer, reassured, relaxed, and contented, which can reduce anxiety levels. Keep in mind that your dog will need to be exposed to the pheromones for around 2 weeks before feeling the effects. Because of this, you may want to use a DAP or Adaptil collar so your dog is continually exposed. Use face blinder caps (similar to horse blinders) to gently cover his eyes. These can reduce anxiety by decreasing visual stimulation and only allowing your dog to see shapes, but not details. These work best for dogs that are fearful of flashes and bright lights, such as thunderstorms or fireworks. Test the blinder caps out before a stressful situation to make sure your dog accepts them and is comfortable, before adding them into the equation of a stressful situation. If your dog paws frantically at the cap, stands with his head down looking dejected, or shakes then it is best to remove the cap. Blinder caps can actually increase feelings of anxiety for some dogs, because they feel trapped. You can buy or make shirts you wrap around your dog, putting pressure on the body to calm the dog. A shirt like this can help a dog with separation anxiety, fear of loud noises, and barking out of fear, travel anxiety, crate training, hyperactivity, and leash pulling. Puzzle toys can distract your dog from its anxiety. Some have a hole in the top that you can put treats in. Be sure to provide the toy before your dog becomes anxious so it isn't seen as a reward for anxious behavior. You could put peanut butter in the toy and freeze it overnight. There are several options for non-prescription medications which you can get from the pharmacy or your vet's office. These include:  Bach Flower remedies: Place herbal drops containing the Bach Flowers (chicory, heather, red chestnut, and...

You can buy fleece in a variety of colors, patterns and thicknesses. Choose your fleece according to needed warmth and personal style, using whatever patterns and colors you want. You can choose accessories such as buttons, sequins or gems to add later if you'd like. Most adult heads are approximately 21 to 23 inches (53.3 to 58.4 cm) around. Fleece has some stretch to it, so you should be able to use a 23-inch (58.4-cm) hat pattern for most people. You want the stretch of the fabric to run across the width of your head, so that it will fit tightly. Check which direction the fabric stretches, too. What direction does it naturally pull towards? This is also going to show you where the back side of the fleece is -- if you stretch the fleece between two hands, the fabric will naturally curl towards the backside (the side touching your head) of the fleece. You'll need a pattern to help you cut the right shapes and sizes out of your fabric. Search for "fleece beanie pattern" online and check out the shapes that you like. There are often subtle variations between hats, and this is your chance to choose the exact design you want.  Make sure your print it "to size." Do not print it to "fit page," as the actual size of the pattern is crucial! Print at 100% or "actual size." They often provide a 1-inch square on the design that you can check with a ruler. Most fleece beanie patterns differ slightly in their construction. They will have 4 side panels and a bottom band. Some patterns will allow you to work from one piece, while others will separate the fleece into up to five pieces. The following measurements provide more than enough fleece to make your hat from. Cut a rectangle of fleece that is approximately 23 inches (58.4 cm) wide by 12 inches (30.5 cm) tall. Reduce the measurements to 19 inches (48.3 cm) wide or 21 inches (53.3 cm) wide for a toddler or smaller adult, respectively. When in doubt, leave a 1/2 inch of excess -- you can always cut it later, but it can make construction easier. Across the width means...

You can buy lotus tubers online, or at a local nursery or garden center. Because of difficulty shipping, they are typically not available after they break dormancy in late spring. However, you may be able to buy some that have been grown locally. For rarer hybrids, you may have to shop online. If there is a water gardening society with a chapter near you, ask them for recommendations. Some societies also sell plants themselves. Place your tuber gently on the surface of the water. Place your bowl near a warm, sunny window, but out of direct sunlight. If you're planning on moving the lotus to a pond, use water from the pond (as long as it's warm enough). Change the water every 3 to 7 days, or if it starts to appear cloudy. If set loose, a lotus will grow as large as the area in which it is planted. Your container reins the lotus in and keeps it from taking over your whole pond. A deep container will decrease the chance that your lotus spills over the top and spreads across the pond. Round containers keep your lotus from getting jammed up in a corner, which can stunt or kill the plant. A good potting medium for lotus is a soil mixture about 60 percent clay and 40 percent river sand. Leave about 3 to 4 inches (7.6 to 10.2 cm) between the top of the soil and the rim of your container. You can also use amended soil, with a separate layer of sand 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6 cm) deep on top. Make sure there is still sufficient space between the top of the sand layer and the rim of your container. Embed your tuber slightly in the sand, then carefully weigh it down with rocks so that it won't float up to the surface of the water before it takes root. Do not bury the tuber completely in the soil – it will rot. Make sure it's embedded only slightly at the surface. Choose a sunny spot for your lotus that is away from flowing water and will give your lotus enough room to grow. Once your tuber is secured in place, you can lower it into the location you've chosen to plant your lotus. Once seated in the pond, the tuber plants...

You can buy one at grocery store, drug store, or online. These are safer than glass thermometers for body temperature as they do not run the risk of breaking or leaking. They do require batteries, however. It will only take a few seconds to find your body temperature.  For anyone over 5, place the narrow end of the thermometer under the tongue. For children under 5, stick the thermometer under their armpit. Press the child’s arm to their side. For babies, take a rectal temperature. Place the metal end of the thermometer about 1⁄2–1 inch (1.3–2.5 cm) into their rectal opening. Call a doctor if your temperature rises above 104.5 °F (40.3 °C). Report any other symptoms, such as a headache, stiff neck, or swollen throat. A water temperature probe is a long metal stick protruding from a cable that attaches to the thermometer. This protects the electric equipment from the water. Wait a few seconds until the main device beeps before reading the temperature.   To measure a flowing body of water, take at least 3 readings in different parts of the body of water. You can use this probe to measure hot liquids, but there are other types of thermometers, such as candy thermometers or infrared thermometers, that will do the same thing without putting your hand near a hot liquid. You might do this if you are measuring the temperature of meat, soil, or liquid. Wait a few seconds. When the thermometer beeps, read the temperature off of the digital screen. Typically, you will want to insert the probe about 1–2 inches (2.5–5.1 cm) deep to get an accurate reading of the internal temperature. This is typically done for machinery or engines. Wait until the thermometer beeps before reading the temperature off of the screen.

You can buy the abrasive at any hobby or craft store.  Glass etching compounds contain hydrofluoric acid, an acid that eats through almost anything other than plastic. When you apply it to your lenses it will eat through any coatings but will leave the plastic lenses completely intact.  You will also need rubber gloves when applying the abrasive, so buy those too if you don't already have some.

You can buy these types of products at your local pharmacy and they will keep your hair looking shiny and beautiful. This is the type of product that many celebrities use to keep their hair looking so shimmering. You can also visit a salon to get a gloss or glaze. Glazes may only last for a week or 2, but a gloss will usually last for about 4 weeks or longer. Buy a shine spray online or at a local hairdresser, but be sure not to use too much. Spray it onto your hands or a brush and then comb lightly through your hair. Start combing at the ends and then work up towards the roots. Be careful not to overdo it or your hair might end up looking greasy rather than shiny. Shampoos that contain natural oils in them will do the most to help your hair look silky and smooth. Avoid shampoos containing alcohol at all costs, as this will cause your hair to become dry and break. Moisturizing shampoos can also help to keep the moisture locked in and have your hair looking the way you want it. You can find shampoo and conditioner like this at your local grocery store or pharmacy, so you won’t have to look far.

You can choose between silicone or saline implants. Women report that silicone implants feel more "real," but they're also more dangerous if they begin to leak inside the breasts. Both types of implants cost between $5,000 to $10,000.  In the past, silicone breast implants were taken off the market by the FDA because they were contributing to major health problems. In some women they "slipped" over time, causing lopsided breasts and other cosmetic issues. After scientific advancements they were recently placed back on the market. Breast augmentation surgery is not usually covered by insurance companies. If you decide to get breast implants, you'll meet with a plastic surgeon to discuss which implants are right for you. You should have a firm idea about what size and shape you want your breasts to be. The doctor will show you examples of how the implants will change your figure and walk you through the surgery process.  Look for a surgeon with plenty of experience and great reviews. You don't want to be the guinea pig for an inexperienced surgeon. Talk to the doctor about medications you are taking to make sure nothing will interfere with the medicines you'll need to take during and after the surgery. You will be placed under general anesthesia while the surgeon makes a cut either under your breasts, under your armpits, or around your nipples, depending on the plan you've agreed upon. The surgery typically takes 1-2 hours. Your breasts will be covered with surgical tape, and you may have breast drains during the healing process.  Complications are possible with any type of surgery. Bleeding, scarring, and more severe issues may occur.  Most people need breast implant replacements after several years, since breasts change shape naturally over time. Breast implants may make it more likely for cancer cells to grow, and they may also interfere with breastfeeding.

You can choose to wear cologne with the seasons by avoiding light and floral scents in the cold months and instead wearing earthy colognes like sandalwood, cedar, and vetiver to complement the weather. As the weather gets warmer, wear cologne that enhances the season. Floral, fruity, green, water, and citrus scented colognes are great for the warmer months. Whether you are going to a dinner date, out to a party, or are getting dressed up for a work event, cologne is a great way to enhance your evening appearance. Choose colognes with musky, woody, oriental, spicy, and mossy notes for the night. You don’t want to wear an overpowering strong scent during the day. For everyday use at work or school you can choose to wear fragrances that are lighter and softer, such as citrus, floral, fresh, and sweet scents. Instead of changing your cologne with the seasons or for the time of day, consider having one fragrance that is your signature scent. Try a variety of different colognes until you find one that you feel represents you and that you want to wear on a daily basis. Consider asking others what they think of your signature scent when deciding. Choose a cologne with a high oil content if you want the cologne to last for many hours. Select a cologne with a low oil content if you are worried about it being too strong and overpowering.

You can compare the temperature that you set in your oven with the temperature of the oven thermometer. This will tell you whether the thermostat on your oven is working correctly. You can purchase an oven thermometer online or at a kitchen goods store. Let the oven preheat completely. As the temperature in the oven rises, your thermometer reading should also increase. If the temperature is the same as the setting on the oven, then your thermostat is working correctly. If the thermometer doesn't match your oven, it's an indication that it's faulty. You should re-test your oven to make sure that the thermostat is broken. Test the oven 2-3 times to make sure your first test was accurate. If the temperature on the thermometer is consistently different, then the thermostat in your oven is faulty and will need to be recalibrated or replaced altogether. Sometimes you can find thermostat recalibration instructions inside of the oven's user manual. If you can't recalibrate your oven's thermostat, you can manually increase or decrease the temperature setting to get the temperature that you need. For instance, if your oven is regularly 20 °F (−7 °C) lower than what you set, adjust the temperature 20 °F (−7 °C) higher to reach the actual temperature that you want. You can double-check whether the temperature is correct with the oven thermometer before you start cooking.

You can cook the food for your party, or hire a catering service. If you have a large number of people attending your party, cooking may not be feasible. On the other hand, if you are not planning to serve a lot of food or the party is small, cooking can be a fun and cost effective option. Do you want to serve a full meal at your luau party, or would you rather serve only snacks? It’s entirely up to you. For shorter parties, cake and ice cream may be the only refreshment needed. The food at your Hawaiian luau-themed party doesn't need to be completely authentic. Hawaiian food is full of fruity and tropical flavors, so focus on incorporating those into traditional party foods. Try a tropical fruit salad, mango ice cream, or pineapple salsa and chips! A roast pig, or Kalua pua'a, is the central dish of the traditional Hawaiian Luau. It is usually seasoned with sea salt and green onions, and baked in an underground oven. Roasting an entire pig is probably a little ambitious for a children’s party, especially since kids are picky eaters, but you can opt for easier, party-friendly pork dishes inspired by the traditional Hawaiian dish.  Serve a ham baked with pineapple rings, or pulled pork sandwiches on Hawaiian sweet buns. You could even order a Hawaiian pizza for extra picky eaters! If you feel up to the challenge you can even roast a whole pig if you really want to impress. Whether you are making the food are having the party catered, finger foods are great options for a luau party, where kids will likely be grabbing food quickly as they play. Plus, you’ll save on plastic cutlery.  Kabobs are easy and tropical. Try making fruit kabobs or ham and pineapple kabobs.  Pizza and sandwiches are simple and versatile. Ocean-themed candy and snacks go well with a Hawaiian luau party, and are easy to buy in bulk! Try Swedish Fish candy or Goldfish crackers. Cold drinks are luau must-have, especially if you are hosting the party outside on a hot day. Stock up on water, but consider serving other beverages as well,...

You can create a slug killing spray by making a solution of ammonia and water. Mix 1 part plain household ammonia with 6 parts water. Pour this into a spray bottle, and spritz it onto the slugs whenever you see them. Just be careful not to use it directly on the plants, as over time it might burn the leaves. These small slug-killing pellets can be found in garden centers, for spreading around your yard. The slugs are attracted to them, but once consumed will cause their deaths within a week. This treatment is safe for most pets and edible plants, but it may still be a good idea to minimize use. Commercial names include Sluggo, Slug Magic, and Escar-Go. Metaldehyde is a common anti-slug treatment, but it has its limitations. Notably, metaldehyde can be very poisonous to pets (especially dogs). Proper handling and placement of this bait is essential to avoid a dangerous situation for family pets.  Avoid "pellet" form metaldehyde, which can be mistaken for pet treats. Use "granule" form instead. Store the metaldehyde somewhere dogs cannot get to it. Do not apply the treatment near edible plants. Spread the metaldehyde thinly, never in piles, which pets can mistake for food. Metaldehyde works best on warm, dry days, but cannot be used in sunlight. Apply underneath leaves in the evening before a warm weather forecast. Look for low-dose metaldehyde products with less environmental impact.

You can create an environment in your home that saves you and your child from the needing to work on discipline unless it is necessary. By setting your home up so that it is safe and child-friendly, you will prevent having to create too many rules or say “no” too often throughout the day.  Use child-proofing devices to keep cupboards closed. Close doors to rooms where young children won’t be safe if they are on their own. Use child-proof barriers or gates to block unsafe areas like stairs. Young children love to play, and playing is important to their healthy development. You don’t need to have expensive toys – children can have a wonderful play time with cardboard boxes, inexpensive toys, or pots and pans. Sometimes the simplest things can spark children’s imagination, so if you cannot afford expensive toys, do not feel guilty. Children can misbehave when they are bored or hungry. Be sure that you leave home with toys your child enjoys playing with and with snacks that are healthy and appealing. Children who are four years old will probably enjoy being active participants in creating rules. Take the time to work with your child to make rules that are reasonable. This will help your child to have a clear sense of your expectations. Because they participated in creating the rules, they will be more willing to follow them and you will be helping them to learn self-control. Children this age will be overwhelmed if there are too many rules to remember. A four-year-old might ignore rules if there are too many, or could feel frustrated and act out that frustration trying to follow too many rules. Work with caregivers to help them understand the rules you and your child have agreed upon.

You can create “hatching” dinosaur eggs by forming a non-edible dough around plastic dinosaur toys. Once the dough dries, you can have fun cracking the eggs open to “hatch” the toys. Small plastic dinosaurs can be found in many toy stores. Prepare to make your eggs by mixing together 2 ½ cups flour, 2 ½ cups dirt, 1 cup sand, and 1 ½ cups salt. Make sure that the dry ingredients are thoroughly and evenly mixed. This will make the base for a dough. Gradually add clean water to the dry ingredients. Stir as you pour just a little bit at a time. The exact amount of water to add depends on the type of dirt you are using and the humidity in your area. In any case, stir in enough water that the dry ingredients stick together so that they can be formed into egg-shaped clumps. Take each plastic dinosaur and wrap it in some of the dough. Make sure to completely enclose each dinosaur. Using your hands, form the clump of dough into an egg shape. You can dip your fingers in water and rub them over the eggs to smooth them out, if you want. It may take several days for your dinosaur eggs to dry hard to the touch, depending on how wet the dough was, and on how high the humidity in your area is. Leave them in a safe, dry place while you wait.  Dry your eggs in the sun if it is warm in your area, but bring them in at night. Rotating your eggs occasionally can help them dry evenly. You can speed the drying process by placing the eggs in an oven set to 200 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 4 hours, turning them every half hour. After the first hour, set the eggs on a rack on top of a baking sheet to help them dry more evenly. The thoroughly dry eggs can be cracked open using a hammer to “hatch” the dinosaur inside. You can have fun by hiding the dinosaur eggs in your yard or a park, then letting children hunt for them and crack them open.

You can cut the pineapple in any way you like, really. First, cut off the tops and bottoms with a sharp knife, and then shave off the skins and cut out the core. You can dice the pineapple, cut it into large circles, or cut it into smaller squares. You can even use a handy-dandy pineapple corer if you want to get fancy. Either one will do. Make sure the sheet is large enough to hold all of the pineapple chunks -- if not, then you may have to use two sheets. Make sure they don't touch or else they will freeze together. You can do this for less time if the pieces of pineapple become completely frozen earlier. You can use a zip-seal bag, Tupperware, or any other storage container that has a seal. Make sure you get all of the air out of the bag first so that the pineapple chunks don't suffer from freezer burn. You should label the bag with the date so you know when it is still safe to eat it -- frozen pineapple can last in your fridge for up to six months.
