Nail together three 17 by 30cm (6.7 by 11.8in) pieces of wood. Place the box upside down in a cool, shady spot in your yard. Place a few bricks, rocks, or logs on the house to weigh it down. Surround the crate with leaves, sticks, and hay."
article: Reusing an old wooden box or crate is a great way to upcycle it and it will make giving your garden hedgehog a home quick and easy. You may have a wooden crate at home that you don't need. If not, check at your local grocery store to see if they have an empty wooden crate you could have. Make sure that the crate or box has openings between the slats. This helps to ensure that the hedgehog's home will be well-ventilated. Use a tape measure or ruler and pencil to find these dimensions. Then, mark the box with 2 lines to indicate where the opening will go. Position the opening at about the center of the top slat (the slat closest to the box's opening). Then, use a hand saw to cut through the slat and create the opening. You should only have to cut through 1 of the slats on the crate to make this size opening. Place the box on a sturdy flat surface before you begin cutting. You can use scrap wood or new wood cut to these dimensions. Place 2 of the wood pieces on their sides and 1 piece on top of these 2 so that the pieces form a tunnel. Hammer 1 nail through each corner of the top slat to secure the tunnel. If you do not want to create a wooden tunnel, you can also use bricks to form an archway at the opening of the hedgehog house. After you put the house on the ground, place 2 bricks on their sides jutting out from the opening. Then, stack 3 bricks side-by-side and perpendicular to these 2 bricks to form a tunnel. Do not create a hedgehog house without a tunnel or archway! Not including a tunnel or archway will make it easy for predator animals to reach into the house and pull out hedgehogs. Hedgehogs like shady spots, such as under bushes and trees. You could also position the hedgehog house behind a shed or near a fence in a quiet corner of your garden. Avoid placing the box in a high-traffic area, or near where pets frequent in your garden. Try to give the hedgehogs some privacy. The box may flip over if a strong gust of wind hits it. Keep it in place by putting a few heavy items on top of it, such as a few bricks, rocks, or logs. You can also line the edges of the box with heavy items for extra protection against predators. Make sure that you do not put more weight on the box than it can bear. A few bricks, rocks, or small logs should be plenty to keep it in place. Hedgehogs like to fill their homes with their own found materials, so do not put anything into the box for them. Leave it empty, but put nesting materials around the box for them to use. Try putting your garden trimmings next to the box, such as branches and twigs from bushes you've pruned, leaves you've raked up, and other items that might make good nesting material for the hedgehogs.

article: Take two to three seconds to slowly lower the dumbbells back down to your start position, steadily inhaling as you go. Your movement should be slow and controlled. If you are using a resistance band, slowly lower your hands back to the starting position. Do not allow the tension in the band to pull your arm back for you this should be a controlled movement. Elevating the arms from the sides of your body will keep the stress on your deltoids. Don't allow your arms to touch your body when you reach the bottom of the movement. Lead with your elbows so that they're the highest part of your arm when you do the raise. Your elbows should lead the lift to keep the workout concentrated on your deltoids. Concentrate on how your muscles relax and contract when you do the raise. Keep the reps slow and consistent to build resistance in your arms. Repeat until you've completed a minimum of three sets. Aim to complete three sets three days a week, for at least six weeks to start seeing results. Increase or decrease the number of reps you do per set to change your level of difficulty.

Help the child get some exercise by going for a walk, riding bikes, or going to a park. All kids get built-up energy that needs an outlet, and it may be particularly the case for a hyperactive child. Getting fresh air and a change of scenery can be really useful in redirecting a child's disposition. Find a sport that the child enjoys doing. Do not pressure them to do a sport they don't like, as this can increase their hyperactivity and lack of focus. Give your child a chance to take a breath and relax by reading a book with them or singing a soft song. Giving them a warm bath is also a good idea. Add lavender essential oils to the bath to create a calming scent. Nature can have a calming effect on people, even if it's just spending time in the yard or garden. Taking a walk or hike in a forest can also be very beneficial, as the child will get fresh air, exercise, and a chance to clear their heads. If there is an activity that seems to trigger your child's hyperactivity, such as something that is noisy, frustrating, too chaotic, and so on, redirect their attention to another activity. This can help refocus their attention. Meditating is, for any age, a good way to calm the mind and body. When children are unable to handle thinking about stressful situations, you can help them visualize how they can respond to those situations. This can help calm them down. Search online for examples of these, or find a book at your local library on meditation and guided imagery for children. For example, have the child sit and close their eyes. Ask them to imagine a calm space, like a beach or a forest. Have them pay attention to the sounds that they hear, the wind they feel on their face, and the details they see around them. Using a regular imagined calming space can be helpful. Teach your child how to take deep breaths to relax. Take a deep breath in through the nose and slowly breathe out through the mouth. Focus on different parts of the body while taking these deep breaths. For example, have your child think about their legs while breathing deeply and rhythmically. Have them tighten up their leg muscles when they inhale, and relax those muscles with every exhale. Go through different parts of the body until the entire body is relaxed. Have your child imagine a warm color or light that surrounds them as they breathe. Imagine this color or light wraps them up to calm them down. Calming meditative practices like yoga and tai chi are not just good for adults. They help kids get centered and find balance in their lives. Find a DVD at your local library that guides kids through yoga or tai chi. Similarly, search online for one. If the child is old enough to write, give them a notebook or journal to write their feelings in. They can write a page or two every day, jotting down their thoughts, problems and concerns. They can either keep the page intact or crumple it up and throw it away. Do not read your child's journal. They should feel that they can be totally honest in their journal, and respecting their privacy will help them feel safe enough to write what is really on their mind.
