Toddlers & Preschoolers
Good Behavior Games for Preschoolers
By Jacqueline Burt Wang and Megan Tucker

Tired of nagging your child to do the right thing? Skip the lecture! Instead, add these super-fun ways to teach honesty, responsibility, compassion, patience, and more to your parenthood playbook. (We promise she won't even notice the lesson.)
Build-a-Train
Credit: Heather Weston
How to play: You'll need several cardboard boxes large enough for a kid to sit inside. Put out a variety of art supplies -- markers, stickers, construction paper, glue -- and tell each child to turn his or her box into a train car. Once they've decorated the outside of their box with wheels, windows, and whatever else they can think of, help them arrange the cars one behind the other, then hop aboard for an imaginary choo-choo ride.
What it teaches: Perseverance. Games that require team prep work give kids a sense of accomplishment, says clinical psychologist Sandra McLeod Humphrey, author of Hot Issues, Cool Choices: Facing Bullies, Peer Pressure, Popularity, and Put-Downs. The positive payoff introduces children to the good feeling they get when they achieve their hard-earned goals.
Parent tip: Be prepared to hang on to those boxes; the kids will want to get together and hit the track again and again.
The Cheer-Up Game
How to play: On large squares of paper, draw a series of faces with different unhappy expressions -- sad, angry, scared, sick (at least one for every child in the game). Put the papers in a basket and ask kids to take turns choosing a face then acting out the feeling shown. For example, a "sad" child might pretend to cry. It's the job of the other players to help her feel better. First, they should ask questions: "Why are you sad? How can I help?" After the "upset" child gives her explanation -- "My friend was mean to me" -- the other kids role-play solutions. They may give hugs, say "I'm sorry," or offer to fix a snack.
What it teaches: Empathy. This is the "core" virtue, notes Parents advisor Michele Borba, EdD, author of 12 Simple Secrets Real Moms Know. "Until children know how it feels to have their feelings hurt, they won't understand why it's important to treat others with respect and kindness," she says.
Parent tip: Have a variety of props on hand for this imagination-powered game: plastic food, stuffed animals, a doctor's kit. The more options available, the more creative kids will be about ways to help out, from putting a bandage on the injured kid's boo-boo to baking pretend cookies for a bummed-out buddy.
The Hot or Cold Game

How to play: Choose one child to be the "Finder." Send him out of the room while the rest of the players hide an object, like a red ball, somewhere in the room. Ask the Finder to come back and look for the ball, while the other players shout out hints: "You're getting hotter" or "you're getting colder." Play until the object is found, then give everyone a turn as the Finder.
What it teaches: Cooperation. This game puts the emphasis on encouraging other players, not competing against them, so preschoolers learn to help each other out in a fun setting.
Parent tip: Try asking kids to speak louder or softer depending on how close or far away the Finder is from the hidden object.
"I Spy"
How to play: Take turns spotting nearby objects and describing them: "I spy with my little eye something that is green...." The other players try to guess what the object is: "A tree!" "Dad's shirt!" Whoever guesses right gets to be the next "spy."
What it teaches: Patience. "Patience is all about waiting," explains Dr. Borba. Any game that forces kids to listen politely while other players have their turn drives this lesson home.
Parent tip: This is a great one to try in situations where kids are likely to get bored and edgy, such as on a long airplane flight.
"Mother, May I?"
Credit: Ted and Debbie
How to play: Line up the players facing you, about 10 feet away. Give commands to one kid at a time: "Sarah, take one hop forward." If Sarah responds, "Mother, may I?" you can say either "Yes, you may" or "No, you may not." If your reply is "yes," make sure that Sarah says "Thank you" before she goes. Anyone who forgets her manners or makes a move without permission is sent back to the starting line. Keep playing until one child reaches Mother. Give each kid a chance to be Mother.
What it teaches: Respect. You can't just tell kids to be respectful, you have to teach them the skills. "This game reinforces courtesy, which is a big part of respect," says Dr. Borba.
Parent tip: To avoid frustration over misunderstood consequences ("I didn't know I had to say thank you!"), make the rules of the game perfectly clear before you get started.
Credit: Veer
How to play: Gather the family in a favorite spot and give every player a chance to finish the sentence: "I was scared when...." Mom and Dad can get the ball rolling by telling their own stories ("I was scared when Josh hid at the grocery store and I couldn't find him"). After everyone's had a turn, repeat the game using other emotions like "happy" or "surprised."
What it teaches: Honesty. When you give kids the go-ahead to talk about their feelings, positive or negative, you help them feel safe to tell the truth. "Children learn values best from watching and listening to Mom and Dad," says Bob Sornson, PhD, founder of the Early Learning Foundation. "If you talk openly and if you are supportive of family members in front of the kids, you set a healthy example of how to act with others."
Parent tip: Use kids' stories as a springboard for further discussion: "Do you still think thunderstorms are scary? What helps you feel brave?" "Can you remember other happy times?"
Sock Sort 'n' Toss
How to play: When you unload the dryer, put aside all the socks. Pile them up on the living-room floor and ask your child to find the match for every sock (make sure all still have their original partners). Once he's sorted the socks, show him how to roll the pairs into balls. Next, set up several shoeboxes a few feet away, each marked with a family member's name. The goal is to toss the correct socks into the appropriate person's box.
What it teaches: Responsibility. "Getting kids involved in chores is a way for them to learn that everyone in the family needs to pitch in," says Dr. Sornson. When you make tasks fun, you'll inspire even the littlest ones to help out.
Parent tip: After the laundry is put away, tell your kid she did a great job -- she might ask to help fold the sheets next time!
Balloon Bash
How to play: Find an open area where your kids won't bump into furniture. Then give each child two balloons (don't try this with kids under 3, since balloons are a choking and suffocation hazard). When you say "go," they must team up to keep the balloons in the air for a set time (start with 30 seconds). You can also have them try bopping the balloons with just one silly part of their body, such as their nose or their pinkie fingers.
What it teaches: Teamwork beats arguing.
Why it works: Your children will see the value of working together toward a common goal. Remind them of this lesson the next time you ask them to clean their room or set the table.
Credit: Jami Saunders
How to play: Make a certificate good for an extra story, a back rub, or your child's favorite breakfast. Hide the slip of paper in her room, then let her look for it after she's brushed her teeth. If she's having trouble, give hints, such as, "You're getting warmer."
What it teaches: Bedtime cooperation.
Why it works: Bedtime becomes fun for kids when they get extra time with Mommy and Daddy and have little bonuses to look forward to.
How to play: Read 10 sentences from a children's book into a tape recorder, using a pleasant voice for some and a whiny voice for others. Play them back and ask your child to raise her hand when she hears the sentences read in a nice voice. When she gets them all right, have her record sentences in her silliest, whiniest, and nicest voices.
What it teaches: Whining is annoying.
Why it works: This game shows that something as familiar as a favorite story can be changed simply by the way you speak, and it helps kids understand how their tone comes across to other people.
Look on the Bright Side
Credit: Phillip Graybill
How to play: Start telling a story in which something negative happens ("One day Steve was feeling cranky because it was too hot outside"). Ask one child to continue by describing a positive turn of events. For instance, "The good thing was, there was a nice, cool lake nearby for taking a dip." The next player then introduces another negative idea, which is answered by a positive one from the next player.
What it teaches: Optimism.
Why it works: It helps kids develop a more positive outlook so they can deal with real-life frustrations more easily.
Follow the Helpful Leader
Credit: Marty Baldwin
How to play: Gather your kids outside a cluttered room. Explain that you're the first "helpful leader" and that they should do what you do. Lead them, skipping and clapping, into the room. Then start straightening up. Make sure they're copying you. After a few minutes, let one of your children be the leader. Encourage the kids afterward by saying, "This room looks really clean!"
What it teaches: Tidying up.
Why it works: Children will realize they're capable of cleaning up after themselves, and that doing so can even be fun -- especially when everyone helps out.
The "I Never Thought of That" Game
Credit: Doug Hetherington
How to play: Gather a few everyday objects, such as a trash bin, a shoe, and a pencil. Hold up an item and ask your child to think of as many uses for it as he can. (For a trash bin, he may come up with ideas such as "sit on it," "hide in it," "use it like a bucket," and "bang it like a drum.") Take turns letting players think of as many ideas as they can in a minute, using a different object for each.
What it teaches: Problem solving.
Why it works: Kids learn that it's fun to think things out on their own. You can also use this technique for helping them come up with options for settling sibling squabbles or dealing with a kid who teases them.
Credit: Robert Jacobs
How to play: Make a list of five things that make you feel happy, such as ice cream, big smiles, sunny days, Daddy, and getting a good night's sleep. Ask your child to repeat these five things. If he does it correctly, add a sixth item, and ask him to repeat them all. Keep adding to the list until he can't recall it. Then it's his turn to say five things that make him happy and have you repeat them. Continue playing by choosing different feelings (sad, angry, afraid) and naming things that make you feel that way.
What it teaches: Empathy.
Why it works: Your child will start to consider other people's likes, dislikes, and emotions, not just his own. This game will also make him think about how his actions affect the feelings of friends and siblings.
The Same-Time Game
Credit: Denis Horan
How to play: Think of some things you can do at the same time (such as clap your hands and sing) and things you can't (such as stand up and sit down), and demonstrate each. Feel free to do something silly, such as frantically trying to sit and stand simultaneously. Then let your children come up with their own examples ("I can't hold my nose and breathe through it at the same time, but I can touch my toes and laugh at the same time"). Take turns until every player has come up with at least five sets of cans and can'ts.
What it teaches: Interrupting is rude.
Why it works: Children have a hard time accepting that they can't always get your attention right away. This game will help them be more patient -- and less likely to interrupt -- when you're on the phone or making dinner.

To facilitate this we have to move earlier in the year, from May to February, so this means moving to 2019 and then annually thereafter and will be run in cooperation with the UK Irrigation Association.

The verification of safety is expected to be one of the largest challenges in the commercialization of autonomous vehicles. Using traditional methods would require infeasible time and resources. Recent research has shown the possibility of using near-collisions in order to estimate the frequency of actual collisions using Extreme Value Theory. However, little research has been done on how the measure for determining the closeness to a collision affect the result of the estimation. This paper compares a collision-based measure against one that relates to an inevitable collision state. The result shows that using inevitable collision states is more robust and that more research needs to be made into measures of collision proximity.

WCIT 2023
The World Congress for Innovation and Technology (WCIT 2023) brings together digital communities and international professionals from science, technology, and the humanities to discuss recent issues and approaches related to the Digital Age.
The 27th WCIT will be the first to be held in Kuching City, the burgeoning capital of the State of Sarawak, Malaysia's Borneo region. The guiding principle for this tech industry Olympics, over the past 13 years, has been WITSA's mission of "Fulfilling the Promise of the Digital Age". In line with Sarawak's digital economy blueprint, this year's congress theme would be; Innovation and Technology Driving Economic Prosperity, Social Inclusivity and Environmental Sustainability.
With the emerging new age of digitalisation that actively shapes and influence the everyday development of science and society, the World Innovation, Technology, and Services Alliance (WITSA), continues to stand out for its ability to bring together science, technology and humanities experts from all over the world, to focus on the rise of the machines and information for societal good. It also provides a global perspective on realising the digital age's potential.
Circular Economy (CE)
A cornerstone for resilient, low-carbon economic recovery in a post-pandemic world, leveraging artificial intelligence, blockchain, the Internet of Things (IoT), cybersecurity, and big data. CE elements, such as shared cross-industry backbones, have enabled business ecosystem innovation and differentiation.
Diversity and Inclusivity
Diversity, equity, belonging, and inclusion are more important than ever. More views are brought to the tech industry through enhancing the capability, opportunity, and dignity of those who are disadvantaged due to their identity.
Greater bandwidth, ultra-low latency, and faster connections are transforming industries, expanding societies, and significantly improving everyday experiences. Services once thought to be futuristic, such as e-health, networked cars and traffic systems, and advanced mobile cloud gaming, are now readily accessible.
As the world strives toward net-zero carbon targets, corporate attention to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues has almost approached a universal level to preserve natural resources and conserve global ecosystems for the support of current and future health and well-being.
Cities are utilising technology to anticipate needs, automate processes, and streamline service access. Cities are becoming more livable and responsive as they become smarter; yet, this is only the beginning of what technology may be able to accomplish in cities in the future.
National Digital Policy Agenda
Today, information and knowledge are the primary drivers of change and value creation, making knowledge-based growth critical to Malaysia's development. Malaysia aims to strengthen its position as a regional data hub through the MyDIGITAL framework's Cloud First plan, which includes investment in data centres.

First, let me say that people can't get past the phrase "expansion" when talking about the plan. It is not an expansion, but rather an extension. As most know, in the early 1900s there was a plan design in place and stored until needed. It extended each road, which made accommodations for more burial sites.
Second, my opponent and other historians fail to remember that Mooreland Cemetery was set up not for only current residents but for any family who has lived in Paxton in the past as well. Now, no one knows who may take advantage of the offer but with majority of the population in their 50s and 60s, we should be ready. Wouldn't it be a shame to have someone attempt to purchase a "family plot" only to find that there is only space available in an area that may not fit their needs or wants. For example, I purchased 12 lots for Gail and myself plus my children's family's (all who lived in Paxton at one time). There were not 12 lots in a location that fit my needs. The only other option was to split us up. This does not make sense. We have a family plot in the expanded section waiting for final approval. I am not sure what will happen should I need a plot soon.
Does Paxton need to go ahead with the extension? Absolutely. Do we need to go forward with the existing plan on file? Without a doubt. Christopher D. Stone
Address: 632 Pleasant St.

Profession: General contractor/carpenter
Civic/Municipal: Member of Friends of Moore State Park and Paxton Land Trust; Recreation Commission for 10 years; Cemetery Commission six months
After having spent many hours in the Paxton Town Hall researching and examining the Mooreland Cemetery records, I am absolutely convinced that it would be unwise to go ahead with a poorly conceived asphalt-paving plan for the cemetery at this the time. There are at least 372 lots still available for sale and 200 potential lots in the existing area. With an average of 20 burials a year, this allows us almost 30 years. Considering that, 90 percent of the burials are in lots that have been purchased years ago we have more like 80 years of use in the existing area. Last year, for example, of the 13 burials, 12 utilized pre-purchased lots so that only one lot was purchased for a burial. There are so many things to consider for a master plan, not just paved roads. For example, a landscape design that includes more convenient water faucet locations, a cremation garden, a Paxton Veterans Memorial Garden, benches, signage, fencing along the road, rules and regulations postings, and alternatives to asphalt for paving should be considered.
I am sure many other people have their own ideas, perhaps especially the people who visit there often. It is the right of every citizen of Paxton to have a voice in the Mooreland Cemetery's future.
There is no need to change the policy that in the past added one road at a time, and only when needed.
Instead we should be focusing our efforts in two areas: 1) facing up to the more serious problems at the Center Cemetery that have been ignored for too long and 2) making a fair offer to the owner of the 12 wooded acres behind the Mooreland Cemetery If that land purchase were successful, the cemetery would be more than doubled in size. Then a real master planning process should begin.


Take Byron Bay and its surrounding beaches. Now add food and drink to the mix and you have the perfect formula for Saturday's inaugural Byron Bay Fine Food & Beverage Festival. The June 3 event will see an amazing choice of food and beverages on offer - from high-end signature plates created by 12 celebrated local chefs to artisan ingredients produced in Byron's backyard.
"Those who are interested in food and wine are also interested in provenance. This event will be a great opportunity to show off our wonderful Byron Bay food and drink produce which our local community is justifiably proud of," says festival organiser Remy Tancred, who is also behind the hugely successful Sample: A Taste of Northern NSW festival held four times a year in nearby Bangalow. Here are a few reasons to visit the first-of-its-kind festival.
Enjoy food prepared by some of Australia's best-known chefs including special guest Neil Perry, (Rockpool Group), Darren Robertson and Mark Labrooy (Three Blue Ducks), Sean Connelly (Balcony Bar and Oyster Co.) and Ben Devlin (Paper Daisy).
Nosh on native ingredients such as KombuCody (Australian wild seaweed harvested by hand), Bottarga Australia (mullet roe sourced from Tweed Heads and transformed into this golden delicacy), Salumi Australia and wild lime products made by indigenous company First Food Co). Brookfarm will also launch Brookie's Slow Gin which uses its macadamia nuts as one of the botanicals.
Head to the hinterland to the delightful village of Bangalow where you will find Tawnya Bahr, of Straight to the Source, guiding VIP festival-goers around the market. The market is more like a social occasion as the community's artists, artisans, bakers, victualers, therapists, farmers and friends flock to the market with the enchanted forest vibe.
Enjoy wandering around the grounds of Elements of Byron, where the festival takes place on June 3. For the duration of the day-long event, 12 of the country's top chefs will offer up a signature dish for a mere $10 a plate that you can pair with wine from one of 12 visiting wineries. Schedule a return visit to Graze Restaurant for product-driven dishes such as slow-cooked Milly Hill lamb shank terrine with almond hummus, pacific raw tuna, crispy duck skin, shitaake dust and pickled cucumber.
Attend a masterclass and learn from producers such as Pierre Issa, of Pepe Saya Butter Co., a bonafide Australian food hero who will be demonstrating how to Churn Some Butter. Chef Luca Ciano will also be demonstrating how to make proscuitto and Olsson Salts will be showcasing its Salts of the Earth at the beachfront festival.
Much of the bounty for the #ByronFoodFest comes from the hinterland, where macadamia nuts farms are prevalent.
Tickets are $20 and include festival entry, a tote bag, wine glass, festival program, masterclass and live music access, and an opportunity to meet some of Australia's top food and beverage royalty.

Should Al Gore run for President in 2008?

Thread: Should Al Gore run for President in 2008?
Buffalo NY area - for now
Gore's Nobel revives talk of presidential run
By Steven Thomma - McCLATCHY NEWSPAPERS
Updated: 10/13/07 9:00 AM
Associated Press A well-wisher hugs former Vice President Al Gore at Friday's news conference in Palo Alto, Calif., where he called global warming "a moral and spiritual challenge."
WASHINGTON - With Friday's announcement of winning the Nobel Peace Prize, Al Gore's fans are pressing anew to persuade him to jump into the campaign for next year's Democratic presidential nomination.
But it's late in the game, with only 12 weeks before voting starts. Democrats in general are largely satisfied with their field of candidates and are hardly clamoring for him. And the country gives him only middling grades.
Gore himself was coy Friday, urging attention to global warming rather than his potential candidacy while continuing to sidestep a flat-out refusal to run for president again.
"The climate crisis is not a political issue, it is a moral and spiritual challenge to all of humanity," he said in a statement. "It is also our greatest opportunity to lift global consciousness to a higher level."
Despite a live global stage, Gore did not take questions from reporters, avoiding the issue of a presidential run next year. His aides repeatedly say he won?t enter the race. Gore donated his half of the $1.5 million prize to the Alliance for Climate Protection, a bipartisan nonprofit organization devoted to changing public opinion worldwide about the urgency of solving the climate crisis.
Gore shared the Peace Prize with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a United Nations panel on the environment.
"For my part, I will be doing everything I can to try to understand how to best use the honor and the recognition from this award as a way of speeding up the change in awareness and the change in urgency," Gore said in brief remarks. "It is a planetary emergency and we have to act quickly."
In announcing the award earlier in the day in Oslo, Norway, Ole Danbolt Mjoes, Nobel committee chairman, said the prize was not a slap at the Bush administration?s current policies. Instead, he said it was about encouraging all countries ?to think again and to say what can they do to conquer global warming.?
Gore is the first former vice president to win the Peace Prize since 1906 when the award went to Theodore Roosevelt, who by that time had become president. Sitting Vice President Charles Gates Dawes won the prize in 1925. It went to former Presidents Jimmy Carter in 2002 and Woodrow Wilson in 1919.
Since losing the presidential election to George W. Bush in 2000, Gore has focused largely on the fight against global warming. His book "An Inconvenient Truth" became a best seller and the movie based on it won an Academy Award.
To a group of people trying to draft Gore to run for president, the Peace Prize is both a ratification of Gore's work and a calling card into the campaign.
"It confirms our judgment of the man, his principles, vision, experience, efforts, as well as promise. He is in a unique position not only to lead our country, but to make America once again an agent for peace in the world," said draftgore.com, a North Carolina-based group.
After his 2000 defeat, Gore became an early and vocal critic of Bush's policies, particularly the Iraq War. But he passed up a chance to run in 2004, throwing his support behind former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean.
Since then, he consistently has said he isn't planning to run next year, but also has consistently refused to rule out a run.
Some close to him speculate he still would like to be president and would accept the nomination if handed to him, but that he wouldn't want to slug it out with the well-financed campaigns of Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama - and perhaps lose.
But to get the nod, he would have to fight for the nomination and begin building a campaign organization in early voting states such as Iowa in just weeks.
Clinton, Obama and John Edwards already have widespread organizations in Iowa, where it's important to have field operatives to organize the town hall-like caucus meetings and where it's more difficult to win than in a simple primary where people merely show up and vote.
Also, while some Democratic activists want Gore to run, there's no broad hunger for someone like him to come in and save the party from a weak field of candidates. A recent Gallup poll found that three out of four Democrats are satisfied with the field.
"The party is content with who is running," said Erik Smith, a Democratic strategist.
