Problem: Article: Use your dominate hand to pluck the trigger lightly. It is essential that you do not use a powerful pluck in the beginning. This is when you're the most susceptible to chipping a tooth. To avoid damaging your teeth, keep a firm pressure between the harp and your teeth. Pluck the trigger inwards or outwards depending on your preference. An inward pluck is when the trigger is plucked in the direction of your mouth. An outer pluck is when the trigger is plucked away from your mouth. Find a comfortable pluck. Some Jew's harpist use their index finger to pluck while others use their whole hands. Figure out what is comfortable for you. Try plucking a rhythm and repeat that rhythm. This will help you develop your comfortability with plucking. To get the most amplified sound out of the Jew's harp, you must open your throat. It's common to open your throat if you are chugging a liquid. Do this same technique with your throat while playing the Jew's harp. Try modifying the shape of your throat. You do this in everyday speech. Imagine you're saying the vowels: a, e, i, o and u. These shapes will all give you different tones. Practice a consistent pluck while changing the shape of your mouth. You can reach a higher pitch by widening your mouth. Similarly, you can reach a lower tone by narrowing your mouth. Your tongue also plays a part in altering the sound of a Jew's harp. Experiment with different positions for your tongue. Try flickering your tongue to the back of your throat for a nice effect. Different breathing variations will modify your tone. Breathing out while playing will create a loud and buzzy sound. Breathing in will create a softer buzzing sound. Use these techniques as accents. Breathe through your nose during normal play. Continue to experiment with different combinations of the above techniques. Once you begin to feel comfortable with different sounds, try to develop a melody out of the Jew's harp. It will take a lot of practice to play cohesive melodies on the Jew's harp. You won't be able to play distinct melodies until you've mastered all the basics. Try something experimental on the Jew's harp. Try whispering words while playing. Play around and try to have fun with it. Differentiating notes on purpose is difficult for both players and listeners. The particular note you produce depends on the quality and make of your Jew's harp. Play notes by playing open and closed sounds. Open sounds are all the sounds you've produced thus far. Closed sounds are achieved by closing your throat, or your glottis. Then use air pressure to open your glottis by saying "A." This will produce an overtone which is essential for playing different notes. Use a tuner while you are practicing to see if you are able to hit a perfect note. Then practice the other techniques and adjust your mouth till those sounds create a different note. Again, playing intentional notes is difficult for the Jew's harp.
Summary: Practice plucking. Open your throat. Change the shape of your mouth. Move your tongue. Modify your breathing. Practice your repertoire of sounds. Play notes on the harp.

Problem: Article: Let your child's imagination run wild. Imagination is critical for development and create a world of wonder and learning for your child. If your child is imagining something or being silly, don't shut their play down. Go along with it and encourage your child to continue creating and dreaming new things. For example, if your child is playing with a kitchen set, ask your child what they'd like to cook and how they will cook it. Creating a game of something can make learning just about anything fun! Make up games that include things you'd like your child to learn about. See how many items your child can count or how many things they can name about horses in one minute. For example, when you're at the grocery store, have your child guess how much the peaches weigh or have them add up the items in your cart. Find games at the store that involve things you want your child to learn about or explore. Children need plenty of free time to discover and explore. Don't jam pack your schedule with errands and activities and keep your child constantly busy. Give your child time for free play, daydreaming, and roaming around in the backyard. For example, if you do follow a schedule, schedule in some time for free time. Let your child choose activities to fill this time. If you don't follow a schedule, take your child's lead for when they want some time alone or to play on their own. Give your child concrete, direct experiences as much as possible, in lots of different environments. Children will connect with real-life experiences and have a more exciting time learning. For example, if your child is learning about geology, bring them to a cave and take an educational tour, or go to a museum. Use an old, unhooked computer keyboard to teach your child the alphabet. They'll enjoy getting to press the buttons while learning the letters and becoming familiar with a keyboard. Ask questions and let your child respond without judging them. Let them think through difficult questions and form their own ideas and values. Ask them about their thoughts and feelings and let them answer in a way that's meaningful to them. Ask your kids how they feel about various issues (current events, relationships, values). Let them have opinions without passing judgment. Ask your children to help you understand why they feel the way they do. Children love books and can learn about their favorite activities, animals, and cultures by reading. If you have a young child, read out loud to them. If you have an older child, encourage them to read on their own and find books that interest them. Spend some time reading with your child every day. For example, include books as part of your child's bedtime routine. Make regular visits to the library and check out books. If your library offers story time, go with your child. Share your own passions with your children. If you love architecture, share your love by talking about buildings and structures. If you love sewing, get your child involved in projects and let them see how fun it is to make things by hand. If you love the outdoors, teach your child all about rocks and animals. Sharing your interests can help your child learn about things in a unique way. For example, if your child is learning about foreign countries, talk about your experiences traveling and ask them where they'd like to visit. Use visual tools like maps or pictures of different places around the world. Ask about what they see in the picture and what makes them curious about it.
Summary:
Encourage imaginative play. Make learning fun by using games. Allow your child free time. Provide hands-on examples and experiences. Let your child form their own opinions. Surround your child with books. Talk about your own interests.
