Problem: Article: Use branches that are at least 1122 feet (0.460.61m) in length. Stand them on end and lean them together so their tops meet. Use grass, rope, or your shoelaces to tie them together so the tops form a small "V." You could also find tall logs to use. Set the branches so the opening under the branches faces away from the wind. Make sure the stick is mostly straight. Rest one end in the small "V" at the top of the A-frame and the other end on the ground. Check to see if you have enough room to lie under the shelter completely. Tie the longer branch to the frame so the longer branch doesn't move around or shift. Dig a small hole to rest the other end of the branch in if you want added stability. Use at least 610in (1525cm) of bedding so you aren't lying on the ground. Avoid using any fresh green leaves since these could easily transfer moisture to your body. Lay the branches on each side of the shelter so they are at a 45-degree angle to the main branch. Break or cut any branches that extend past the long branch so your shelter is compact. Fill in all the cracks between the branches as best as you can. Use smaller branches to cover any holes or cracks and to prevent debris from falling through. Start from the bottom of the structure and layer the debris onto the framework you made. The thicker you make your insulation, the warmer you'll stay and the more camouflaged you'll be. Aim to layer the leaves at least 2ft (0.61m) thick. Cover the opening of your A-frame with more sticks if you want to completely close your shelter when you're sleeping or away.
Summary: Set up 2 sturdy branches to form an "A" shape. Tie a stick that's 2ft (0.61m) taller than you to the tops of the A-frame. Cover the ground under the structure with dry leaves and grass. Lean solid branches on each side of the long stick to form a ribcage. Place dead branches and leaves on top of the ribcage.

Problem: Article: Washing your face off with plain, cold water will not only get rid of any excess shaving cream or hair, but it will also close off your pores so that dirt is less likely to clog them. After you've splashed your face with cold water, dry your face off gently with a towel it doesn't need to be completely dry, but it shouldn't be dripping. Pour or squeeze just 1 or 2 drops of aftershave into the palm of your hand, and rub both of your hands together. Getting your hands a little bit damp beforehand can make application easier. Use your hands to apply the aftershave to your face, massaging downwards as opposed to upwards. Make sure the aftershave is applied evenly and rub it in gently until your skin absorbs it. If your skin still feels dry after you've applied the couple of drops of aftershave, massage a smaller amount than you first applied onto your face and see if that helps. You don't need to overdo it by lathering your face up with a ton of aftershave this is too much for your skin to absorb and won't help. Apply enough aftershave to gently moisturize and treat your skin. If you're unsure of how much this should be, start with a small amount you can always add more. Aftershaves are designed to moisturize and soak into your skin, so after you massage it into your face, you're done! Unless your aftershave specifically tells you to wash it off, you don't need to. Most aftershaves you simply leave on your face.
Summary: Rinse your face with cold water post-shave to close your pores. Pour a couple drops of aftershave onto your palm and rub your hands together. Massage the aftershave gently into your face. Apply enough aftershave to treat your face. Leave the aftershave to absorb into your face.

Problem: Article: Since small children are constantly making messes and dirtying their clothes, it's easy to feel like your house is always a wreck. If you want your child to help you keep things tidy, make chores or simple tasks into a game. Avoid just telling your child that he has to clean something up. You may need to help him or get him started. You can also make challenges or chores into races where you compete. For example, get a large bucket and help your child toss toys into it. You might encourage your child to find all of the blocks or balls to throw in. This will help him learn to sort and makes cleaning more interactive. Make chores a competition between several kids. This will make it seem more like a game. Kids like feeling as though they have some control or power over things. If you give your child an option, he'll feel as though he's in control of the situation and he'll be less likely to disobey or throw a tantrum. For example, you might tell your child he can select his pajamas to get ready for bed or he can pick out what story he'd like to listen to before bedtime. When giving small kids options, keep them simple or your child might become overwhelmed. Also, give your kid a chance to make the decision. If you're caring for several kids, ask "who wants to help me with this project?" Small children don't have a sense of time like adults do. But, they do have a sense of routine. Knowing what comes next and what to expect during the day can be comforting. You don't need to plan out detailed activities for every hour of the day. But, a loose routine will give your kid a sense of security which can improve his behavior and create good habits. For example, a loose bedtime routine might include getting pajamas on, brushing teeth, snuggling while reading stories, and bed. When handling more than one child, it can help to coordinate their nap schedules so that they both get rest and you get a break. Don't wait for your child to do something naughty before talking about appropriate behavior. Instead, catch your child doing something good and praise him for it. Kids respond better to positive reinforcement than punishment. Just be sure to use specific praises or your child might start tuning it out. For example, if your child wipes up a spill, you could say, "Good job cleaning up after your mess!" Avoid chastising one child by pointing out how good another child is. This will just make one kid resent the other one.
Summary:
Make tasks fun. Give choices. Create a routine. Reward good behavior.
