What are we most thankful for as we consider that? </span><b><i>Tuckright</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400;">® is grateful that we live in the land of the free, because of the brave. The USA is the best place on earth for freedom to speak our mind and pursue our passions. So we decided to do a gratitude roundup of opinions regarding people’s most heartfelt appreciation currently in their life. Here are their thoughts and a few additional comments.</span></p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h5><b>Freedom to Worship</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Whatever your religious persuasion, you have the freedom to worship in the USA. This is a right that must be protected as we observe many of our rights being challenged today. We are under great assault by individuals and groups that dislike the USA and are trying to destroy what we have.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Thank People who made a Difference in our life</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Often the only recognition a person receives is in a eulogy at their funeral. We need to take the time to say thanks or at least drop them a card with a short note of gratitude. Most often, people are admired and have influence on others without ever knowing it occurred. Observation of others is one of the most inspirational acts that take place continually.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Our Health</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Protecting your health is a paramount requirement in life. Without good health, little else can be accomplished and nothing else really matters. It is a sobering fact that any defect in our physical body can eventually lead to death. Gratefulness for our health condition, whatever that may currently be, is wise as our bodies are designed to heal.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Things we Have</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Possessions are good but can become burdensome if they are allowed to be our main focus in life. Here is a great line by Wale Ayeni, “Be thankful for what you have. Your life, no matter how bad you think it is, is someone else’s fairytale.” If we do not feel grateful for what we already have, what makes us think we’d be happy with more?</span></p>
<p><b><i>Tuckright®</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is grateful for the families using the <a href="http://www.tuckright.com/product/tuckright-blanket-suspenders/">Blanket Suspenders®</a>. </span></p>
<h5></h5>
<h5><b>Gratitude Roundup Quotes.</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Gratitude is the mark of a noble soul and a refined character. We like to be around those who are grateful. They tend to brighten all around them. They make others feel better about themselves. They tend to be more humble, more joyful and more likeable. Joseph B. Wirthin</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Gratitude turns what we have into enough and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity… it makes sense of or past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. Melody Beattie</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are. Marianne Williamson</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Choosing to be positive and have a grateful attitude is going to determine how you are going to live your life. Joel Osteen</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Teaching Gratitude to Children</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Most importantly we must pass along the important things in life to the children. Gratitude is one of those significant items in life that can easily get overlooked. “<a href="http://www.imom.com/the-secret-to-teaching-gratitude-during-the-holidays/#.WfnkaIhrzIU" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Secret to Teaching Gratitude during the Holidays</a>” is a great article for this purpose.</span></p></div>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">However, the small business identity is like an iceberg. What you see is only its tip of the iceberg above the water line. Same is true with a small business. What you may see is the store front or the website. But behind that website face to the public, is a super-sized amount of support infrastructure employing hundreds of people in other small businesses. So, when you purchase goods and services from a small, online business, you are actually impacting many more people’s lives than normally expected. Here the cliché that “less is more” is actually true.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Perfect Illustration</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A great example of today’s small, online business that has a supersized support structure is </span><b><i>Tuckright</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400;">® LLC. This decentralized, virtual business model takes advantage of economy of scale, utilizing specialists that can accomplish each task at the most economical cost.

Your support of small businesses will touch the lives of many people throughout the USA this season.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Many Not So Apparent Cases</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Small businesses are sprouting up everywhere you look and in every industry. Most are niche players who are carving out a specialty in order to maximize the value they can deliver. Internet marketing has provided the window to the world to expose products and services to people who would have ordinarily not seen them. Many small businesses have only served their local regional area until the Internet was developed. Here are a few examples:</span></p>
<ul>

</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Shopping online is now the choice of most young consumers and is growing every year. It is convenient, fast and easy. The graphics today make product evaluation very thorough and the shipping methods are dependable. Your choice to purchase from a small online business will send dollars into all the small businesses list above and contribute to the economy in the USA beyond your best imaginations.</span></p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h5><b>Holiday Party Time</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The issue that needs to be resolved is the return trip home after drinking alcohol at a party. A little preplaning is an easy task. There are options. If the party is nearby, walk to it. Then you can </span><b>crawl home</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> if necessary. Or, have a friend pick you up and drive together. When you want to go home, call an </span><b>Uber driver</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> or a taxi to come pick you up. It’s a cheap alternative to the DUI attorney fee with an insurance premium bump.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Across State/Country for a Visit</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are two things to always keep in mind.</span></p>
<p><b>First</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, always </span><b>leave early</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to avoid frustration with traffic or crowds. The trip is to be enjoyable and relaxing so you want to avoid any unnecessary stress.</span></p>
<p><b>Second</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, do </span><b>not get overly tired</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Fatigue lessens our alertness and causes drowsiness which reduces our defensive driving skills.  Further, tiredness can adversely impact your immune system and lead to sickness. And, we all know, there is nothing worse than being sick away from home.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Holiday Travel Trip Packing</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When the family members pack for the trip, keep in mind there are </span><b>limitations</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> at your destination:</span></p>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Limited space for travel bag storage</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Limited surface space to put things out</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Limited hangers for good clothes and coats</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Limited space for shoes and boots during bad weather</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">To save space when packing it often works well to </span><b>roll clothing</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> rather than to fold it. This reduces the wrinkles even when packed in tight, unlike folded items.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Take along a couple of </span><b>plastic garbage or shopping bags</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to put dirty clothes in. This will keep your other clothing smelling fresh when they are all in a travel bag together.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It is also prudent to take a </span><b>night light</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> or two for the unfamiliar sleeping quarters. And, don’t forget a can of </span><b>bathroom spray</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> deodorant. These can just make the trip a bid more pleasant.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Other Important Items</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Always </span><b>wear shoes</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, not sandals or flip flops when traveling. This will keep everyone’s feet cleaner, safer and make any required walking more tolerable. It prepares everyone for that unexpected emergency where you may need to run for shelter or walk a great distance for rescue.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Include </span><b>earplugs</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for everyone. These are handy to have when trying to sleep in an unfamiliar place. The sounds are always unique and may include unexpected, early morning garbage truck pick up noises outside.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Many times the air conditioning is difficult to get adjusted just right, or it is blowing directly on the nearest bed. Don’t forget to take a set of </span><b><i>Tuckright</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Blanket Suspenders® for each of the children. They are easy to attach and remove from beds as you travel. This way the kids will remain covered all night and you will also get a good night’s rest.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Take a </span><b>pillow and a blanket</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for each child. Whether in the car or plane, it is always wise to have an extra cover-up, especially when sleeping. If flying, it is also a good idea to have a sweater or light jacket when the cabin temperature is too low. The best idea is for everyone to </span><b>dress in layers</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. This will accommodate most all circumstances.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>All Important List</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When planning for a trip have each family member </span><b>compile a list</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> of what they intend to take. Review this and weed out the unnecessary items. They should each take the list along and when leaving use it as a checklist that they are returning with everything they brought.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h5><b>Rid yourself of Guilt</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Busy moms wrestle with the guilt of not being the perfect mom with their kids all the time. They compare themselves with the imaginary ideal mom and fall short. This causes frustration and an endless cycle. Whether you work away from home or not, the feeling still arises for various reasons.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Here is the solution…”Get over it!” To begin with, kids are adaptable to changing environments and resilient to family disruption. Some of the best, highest achieving adults came out of the worst dysfunctional homes. The kids are not the issue. Your guilt possibly stems from your own self focus. You’d like to be enjoying them more because their youthful years will slip away fast. Like they say, take your situation of lemons and make lemonade of it.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Start now and make what time you have into quality time, which is simply having one on one with each child for any period of time, but do it regularly. You can also plan ahead with the kids events they want to do. And last, let the kids see you when you are less than your best. They learn from this that you are human and they too may someday have difficult situations with the stress of life.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Find more Time</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">They say a woman’s work is never done. The joke is, those are the things she gives her husband to do! The housework chores that keep a household running are a huge job. Let’s find a way to lighten that load if you are feeling overwhelmed now toward the end of the year. Sit down with the family and make a list of responsibilities for each person and the date when those things will be accomplished.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Post this on the refrigerator door and hold everyone accountable. This should include, for example, helping in the kitchen, cleaning, lunch making, picking up stuff around the house and bed making. This task can be eased by using </span><b><i>Tuckright</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Blanket Suspenders® on each child’s bed which makes the bed easier to make after keeping them covered all night. Less work for Mom, using </span><b><i>Tuckright®</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400;">;</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;">“Keeps my kids covered all night!”</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Problem Resolution</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Many people feel that talking about issues and problems will somehow get them resolved. It doesn’t, and the bigger issue is that the problem is then carried around as a mental burden. Let’s stop talking with our spouse, neighbors and friends about our concerns and move on. To move on you either put it out of your mind or address it immediately and get it settled. There is no place in your life for tolerating negative thoughts that serve to disrupt your peaceable life.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Date Night with Spouse</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Let’s make time together. Set aside one night per week for the remaining weeks in the year. Perhaps Thursday night would be good and go out with your lover. Do this to make it easy and cheap. Hire a sitter for a couple of hours at dinner time. Have them feed the kids.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You two go out to a local establishment that has a two for one drink offering with heavy hors d’oeuvres. Many local hotels will have these offerings. Call it dinner. It is a great escape to be together and just talk. So, the one drink and only two hours of sitter cost makes for a cheap date. The saying goes…”tomorrow is the first day of the rest of your life.” Now get going and make this new found life style your own. Enjoy it to the max. Cheers!</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h5><b>Ultimate Mom-Kid Bonding Bucket List</b></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Now you will more time for the children. Parent Magazine published a great list you should also read. The article itemizes a dozen creative ideas for activities to do together. <a href="http://www.parents.com/featured/LegoBucketList" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Check it out, here</a>!</span></p>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The song says. “It’s the most wonderful time of the year!” And, that’s true when you manage your time accordingly. It’s a time of festivity with family &amp; friends. It’s a time of giving as you reflect on the bountiful year that is coming to a close. But, it can also morph into a time of despair and depression for people who are lonely. Or, it is a time of anxiety if stress is not managed. People who step up to these challenges and address them before there is an issue in their life are the ones who have happy holiday health. Here are some suggestions for keeping the holidays healthy for you and your family.</span></p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p><b>Give Love.</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The greatest gift you can give to anyone is to simply love them where they are in life. A lot is asked of moms this time of year and maintaining an attitude of love about every request or demand on your time will keep it all in proper perspective.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b>Play Music.</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Turn on the radio or cell phone or even the TV channel that has continuous music. Play soft music some days and seasonal music other days. Having this in the background will help all family members be more relaxed and remain positive about their daily activities.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b>Avoid Toxic People.</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Whether it is a family gathering that includes the aunt you can’t stand, or a local party with an acquaintance that bugs you, there will be people around who are an annoyance. Simply avoid these people with a polite hello and keep moving on to talk with others. Don’t allow yourself to be subjected to a negative encounter.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b>Have Family Time with Laughter.</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Allocate time amidst the hectic holidays and just be with the family. Do something that everyone will enjoy and be able to communicate among one another. You can play cards, or an old fashion board game, or watch a comedy movie etc. The key is to be together and to get the good endorphins active through laughter.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b>Eat Balanced with</b> <b>Portion Control. </b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The holiday parties serve all the fattening but best tasting food of the year. So, go ahead and enjoy it. The key is to enjoy the taste without eating too much. Limit the amount you consume and you’ll be ok. Then at meal time, eat the balanced diet items of vegetables and protein.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b>Exercise and Get Outside.</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Go for a walk outside to get some fresh air. Walk with a family member or a friend. You’ll be building your relationship, getting needed exercise and breathing fresh air. This is a win win for your physical and mental health.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b>Rest. </b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You’ll be burning a lot of extra calories with the food you’re eating and the pace you’re keeping during the holiday season. Therefore, proper rest is imperative for restoring your body in order to maintain good health. And to assist you, utilize </span><b><i>Tuckright</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Blanket Suspenders® on your children’s beds. These Blanket Suspenders® keep the bedcovers on all night so you do not need to check on recovering the kids and they have the bed looking good in the morning, almost already made.  </span><a href="http://www.tuckright.com/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">www.tuckright.com</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">are mom’s delight, “keeping my kids covered all night.”</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b>Reach out to Someone Alone</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Now contact someone you may know is alone during the holiday. Give them a call or better yet, go visit them. This will assure them they are loved and cared about.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Remember to do everything in moderation. If each family member can maintain a balance in all they do, the holidays will be a time to remember with great joy.</span></p>

Whether you are comforting the children at their bedtime or flopping into bed yourself at the end of the day, it is a time for moms to delight in peacefulness and relaxation. This personal refuge must be protected as it is the only way for our physical bodies to rejuvenate and get restored each night. A good night’s rest for the children is as important as good nutrition is each day for their bodies to function at peak performance. <a href="https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/health-topics/topics/sdd/why" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Read “Why Is Sleep Important?”</a> </span></p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h3><b>Unstable Situation</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">However, their bed is an uncontrolled environment. Think about it. During the day they have control over what, when and how much they eat. They have control over what they wear and are able to keep their clothing proper during the day. They have control over their physical environment and are able to keep things decent and in order.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But at night, they are asleep and totally unaware of what is happening with the uncontrolled bedcovers. When they roll and turn over, or especially if they restlessly toss and turn, the uncontrolled bedcovers will move around and generally the child becomes uncovered. Let’s face it, tucking them in really does not work that well. They are either tucked in too tight becoming uncomfortable, or too hot, or tucked too lose and the bedding gets pushed around and they eventually become uncovered.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Moms Delight Achieving Control</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When we dress we use pins, belts, ties, straps, buckles etc. to keep clothing and hair in place. In the house we use door stops, curtain tie-backs, rubber mats, racks, etc. to keep things in place. But, the children’s bed is a neglected area that has been disregarded and not addressed until now. Today, there is a product that tackles uncontrolled bedcovers and solves the age old problem of uncovered kids at night while everyone else in the household is asleep.</span></p>
<p><b><i>Tuckright</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Blanket Suspenders® keep kids covered all night and the bed practically already made when they crawl out in the morning. This contributes to the well-being of the family. The kids are more rested, stay warmer all night and parents are not concerned or bothered about having to recover their children at night. Then, in the morning, the bed is so easy to make, the children can do it themselves and this renders life easier for mom.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">These are also ideal to use for calm, comfy snugglers. Nestling into bed with a teddy bear and maybe the remnants of a favorite old blankie is enhanced from the warmth provided by the bedcovers remaining in place. Now cuddling up to the smell of the beloved pillow makes all the issues in a child’s life disappear and Mr. Sandman can easily take over with the job at hand.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Sweetest Times</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">During this holiday season everyone wants there to be great joy throughout the household. It is a wonderful time for parents and grandparents to be available to comfort the children at bedtime. It may be the finest time for intimate talk and resolution of all the worldly problems children tend to muster. Covering the kids, reading to them, praying with them and talking about their issues at bedtime are not only timely and important, but it creates a memory for them and for the parents.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Mom’s Delight</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Unfortunately, this pristine time can turn into a nightmare for busy moms if their child is in and out of bed following the initial turn in. Mom is required to drop what she is doing and attend to the children’s needs redoing all the tuck-in effort that was done so perfectly the first time. But, this situation is averted with the use of the </span><b><i>Tuckright®</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> product. Harmony is sustained and peacefulness prevails in the home to mom’s delight. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Concern for the children’s welfare is natural behavior by parents. The caring nature of parents and grandparents is to oversee the children in all situations. Children are cared for throughout the day, but left to their own at night with uncontrolled bedcovers. This holiday season is an ideal time to address this void and acquire </span><b><i>Tuckright</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Blanket Suspenders® for each of the children’s beds.</span></p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s the holiday’s season. What a wonderful time of the year. Well, for the kids and Dad perhaps. But, for Mom, well, maybe not so much. Many moms find themselves a bit overwhelmed, experiencing some stress and anxiety regarding all they have to do and the expenses involved. There are ways to avoid this dilemma.</span></p>
<h3><b>Three things are at work here.</b></h3>
<p><b>First,</b> stress is self-inflicted pain that generally results from lack of organization and planning. Therefore, we need to get organized for the season and implement a plan to accomplish all that is involved. <b>Second,</b> anxiety is fear of the unknown that can be addressed by pulling together all the information necessary to make all the needed decisions. And <b>last,</b> the prior two issues stem also from the need to allocate your time and money for this short window of the calendar when so much is happening.</p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_24  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light">
				
				
				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h3><b>Get organized to be a winner and overcome these hurdles.</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Establish a </span><b>master calendar</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for the entire family through the end of the year. Find out when everything will be happening. Discuss with the family what are priorities and make decisions early regarding which activities each person will participate in.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Teach the family how to say No.</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Just say no to the lower priority opportunities. This will protect your family from false anticipation. You sometimes </span><b>just can’t do everything</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. This will resolve conflicts early and set expectations with each individual member of the family. That includes determining driving requirements for the kids.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Now, you can get the </span><b>sitters lined up early</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">, and get that off your mind too.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Block out time.</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Allocate time on your master calendar to enjoy the family. Set aside time to do some fun family activities that will contribute to making memories. Baking cookies, decorating the tree, setting up decorations and other tasks are simple things everyone can enjoy. Then comfort the children at bedtime with a Christmas story. When you plan ahead using </span><b><i>Tuckright</i></b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Blanket Suspenders® on the children’s beds, these will reduce your work by keeping them covered all night and the bed easy for them to make in the morning. Moms delight using </span><b><i>Tuckright®</i></b><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">; </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">“keep my kids covered all night!”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Also, take the time to keep the season holy with your faith. Carry on traditions and meaningful customs so they are enjoyed and passed on to the next generation.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Allocate time and money for yourself.</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are always tremendous deals during the holidays. So plan some shopping trips or on-line surfing to take advantage of the opportunities. Begin </span><b>soliciting gift ideas</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> from not just your children, but everyone on your list. If it is a neighbor, friend, fellow worker or relative, ask the people closest to them for gift ideas. This is always a good policy for knowing their interests that will help fill the void of ideas for you.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Easier entertaining during holiday season</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Try entertaining family and friends with an old fashion pot luck dinner? During this season of giving, it allows everyone to participate and be recognized for their contribution. Furthermore, a festive buffet dinner is easier on you and allows everyone to mingle more creating that memorable time. Look out, it may be requested for a repeat next year!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And, when you have to travel during the holidays, leave early. Give your destination people a heads up regarding when you expect to arrive, and inform them of any delays along the way so you can enjoy the trip.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Taking the stress and anxiety out of the holidays is a challenge but can be accomplished. It is something we must all work on so our presence is a joy to everyone around us.</span></p>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Autumn is a wonderful time of the year for family activities before everyone becomes preoccupied with the holidays. Wherever you live and whatever budget you are on, there are a number of inexpensive yet fun things to do together that require little preparation. Here are a few ways for each person to relax and focus on fun events beyond their daily routines.</span> </div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h3><b>Take a family hike in local state park</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> It is great to get outside and enjoy nature. Hiking and sightseeing is an easy way to get the kids away from their friends for some one on one quality time. It is always surprising what the children like to talk about when they are away from the normal environment in a new situation. They can even use their cell phone compass feature so they don’t miss their devices.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Invite other families having children similar ages as yours to carve pumpkins</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Load up on some various sized pumpkins, buy a few inexpensive candles and waa-laa, you’ve got an inexpensive party theme. Invite a couple of families over, you’d like to get to know better, and you’ve a casual environment for some new friend building. Have your event on a weekend afternoon for a couple of hours and serve ice cream after the carving is completed. PS, give me a call. Sounds like fun. I’d like to come too!</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Take a drive to a local area of your state you do not frequent</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Drive out to look at things unfamiliar to you in areas that may be different from where you live. The purpose is to relax. It is relaxing to your eyes to look distances when all week everyone has spent a lot of time viewing electronic screens. It is relaxing to your body to see new shapes and colors, to hear different sounds and perhaps smell new odors. Exposing yourself to change and things that are not customary is a healthy activity.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Take your family to a fried chicken restaurant.</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Have an old fashion chicken dinner on a Sunday evening. Following dinner, have exclusive family time for the remainder of the evening. Then, have the kids hit the hay early for a peaceful wind down before going to bed. To make their night even more restful, use <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><em><strong>Tuckright</strong></em> Blanket Suspenders® </span> on their beds to assure they will stay covered all night. Less work for Mom, using <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><em><strong>Tuckright</strong></em> Blanket Suspenders® </span> “Keeps my kids covered all night and the bed easier for them to make in the morning.”</span></p>
<h3></h3>
<h3><b>Take some crazy photos of each family member</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Have the pictures printed and post them somewhere that is visible like the refrigerator door. The kids like to see happy photos of their own family, especially Mom and Dad goofing off. You’ll be surprised at the reaction from the children when they see Mom and Dad out of normal character displaying a totally different personality than they are accustom to seeing.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><b>Fifty more Fun Fall Family Activities. </b></h3>
<p><a href="https://www.realsimple.com/work-life/entertainment/fall-activities" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Here’s a great list</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">categorized by Outdoors, Nostalgic, Eat &amp; Drink, Holiday and Just Because. These are all a bit more traditional and will vary based on your area of the country. </span></p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">It was called “Beggar’s Night” when I was a kid. It was Halloween and we went trick or treating to get as much candy as we could. The goal is still the same for the munchkins today and the strategy remains similar. The entire event, beginning at school and carrying through into the early evening, was just a complete joy. Here are a few ideas to consider that may contribute to making everyone’s experience a total delight.</span> </div>
			</div> <!-- .et_pb_text -->

			</div> <!-- .et_pb_row --><div class="et_pb_row et_pb_row_26 et_pb_row_fullwidth et_pb_gutters1">

			</div> <!-- .et_pb_column --><div class="et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column_42  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough">
				
				
				<div class="et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_32  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light">
				
				
				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h3><b>The costume</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kids sometimes have trouble deciding what to wear for their costume each year. So, why not have them select two different outfits or costumes. They could have one for school and the other for trick or treating in the evening. Why do this? Well, often the kids want something elaborate for school that is a total disguise so their friends won’t know who it is. Often these disguises can be rather bulky and perhaps cumbersome. It may be fine for the school parade through the halls. But outside, it is not practical. For the trick or treating at night, they need clothing they can move in, even run. A costume that is more functional is in order for the actual trick or treating venture. So, consider something that will work around a pair of sneakers, pants, top and a mask. That’s all they really need and they’re off seeking the mounds of candy they’ve been dreaming about.</span></p>
<h3><b>The container</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Great success getting lots of candy can mean problems. The container used to collect it in gets heavy and can often break, come apart or rip. Therefore, to avoid this, use two separate containers. The parent who takes them out keeps one and has the kids dump their candy into it periodically. This way theirs won’t get heavy and it also gives you a chance to examine the candy they’ve received. Another tip, throw out any items that are unwrapped just for precautionary safety measures. Now for the older kids who are out running on their own, have them take an extra plastic bag in their pocket. When their container, often a pillow case, starts getting heavy, they can dump it into the plastic bag and secretly stash the bag in the bushes somewhere they can return to and pick up at the end of the evening.</span></p>
<h3><b>The trick or treat neighborhood</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Your own community is best for trick or treating as it is something you are familiar with and therefore, generally safe. It is best for maximizing the candy in-take to go to houses that are relatively close together and close to the street. This of course minimizes their unproductive transition time between handouts. When the kids find a house that is giving out an abundance of candy, they should not be hesitant to return to it a second time a little later.</span></p>
<h3><b>The candy haul</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">How much fun it is to go home at the end of the trick or treating and dump the candy out on the floor to see what’s there. This is another photo op time that should not be forgotten. The glow on the kid’s faces seeing all they have acquired is sometimes priceless. They sort it out and fondle every piece. Then if there are siblings, the trading begins. This excitement might continue until bedtime when the kids finally drop from exhaustion. Many wise moms are using <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><a href="http://www.tuckright.com/product/tuckright-blanket-suspenders/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em><strong>Tuckright</strong></em> Blanket Suspenders®</a> </span> on their children’s beds to keep the kids covered all night which helps them get a good, restful night’s sleep. And, there’s less work for Mom, using <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><em><strong>Tuckright®</strong></em></span> <span style="font-weight: 400;">“Keeps my kids covered all night, and the bed easy to make in the morning.”</span></span></p>
<h3><b>The candy consumption</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. </span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But wait! This candy stuff is all sugar and not really the best health food. And furthermore, it really isn’t one of the seven food groups after all. How the feasting should be done to cause the least harm to their growing bodies is the concern. Well, one way, if they have the personal discipline, is to dole the candy out to themselves over a long period of time to enjoy it longer. But, the problem with this is that is bad for their teeth since they most likely won’t be brushing after eating some in their room every night. Perhaps the better remedy is to just allow them to have their feeding frenzy and then it’s gone! It will flush through their system rapidly this way and be gone. If there is any indigestion, well, it’s minor and only temporary.</span></p></div>

This locker room color was the idea of legendary Iowa coach Hayden Fry.  Fry had a psychology degree and once read that the color pink has a calming effect on people. What a better way to begin a game than to have the competitor in a tranquil mood rather than fired up to win!</span></p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Can Color Help Children Sleep?</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The same concept applies to children’s bedrooms. Certain colors will be stimulating and others calming. Turns out the color </span><b>blue is one of the most relaxing colors</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to use in a child’s bedroom. The reason is the ganglion cell receptors in the retina of the eye relay information to the brain that controls the 24 hour circadian rhythm, which impacts how we feel physically and many other aspects of life.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Blue, the color of the sky and ocean, is associated with openness, peace, tranquility and calmness helping to </span><b>reduce heart rate and in turn lower blood pressure</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. This results in a better night’s sleep for your children. The net result is the color of their bedroom can </span><b>affect children’s sleep patterns</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> as well as their consequent mood.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are </span><b>other colors</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> that will have the same effect if blue is not you color of choice. Colors like grays, coral, beige, silver and neutrals also create a calming environment. Further, warm colors may be incorporated like a pale yellow that produces a cozy feeling and is very inviting to the room.  Shades of green, earth tones or soft, muted colors may also provide the same results. It is also best to use a flat paint rather than an eggshell since the egg shell reflects more light making it brighter.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Now here is </span><b>another thought</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Consider painting the ceiling a darker color rather than white. Use perhaps a light gray or a complementary color to the wall color. This will also be of help in getting your children to </span><b>sleep with daylight savings time</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and also if they desire to nap in the afternoon.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">By all means, do not make the mistake of painting the children’s bedrooms bright colors. While this looks nice and is visually invigorating, it will tend to hype up the child and stimulate their energy at a time when you want them to be relaxed and calmed to prepare for resting.</span></p>
<h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Combine Bedroom Accent Colors for Influence</span></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Here is a very good list of colors assembled by Ethan Green, author of <a href="https://www.nosleeplessnights.com/about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>No Sleepless Nights</em></a></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">, of the impact of colors on human behavior:</span></p>
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Red:</b> <i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Aggressive. Dangerous.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Typically stands out from all other colors.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Blue:</b> <i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Trusting. Peaceful</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">. It is a relaxing, peaceful color, but it is also associated with coldness.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Yellow: </b><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Friendly. Contented</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">. This is a mellow and generally positive color, but it can also be polarizing.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Green:</b> <i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Calming. Opulent</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">. It is the color of nature and of money.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Purple:</b> <i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Luxurious.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Darker shades can be elegant, lighter shades can conjure up images of nature, of spring and summer flowers.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Orange:</b> <i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Energetic. Playful.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> A contrasting color, it can be seen as uplifting, but also cheap.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Gray: </b><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Plain. Boring. </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">A gloomy, depressing color devoid of life, but also formal and straight-edged.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Pink:</b> <i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Youth. Young Love.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> This is an innocent and feminine color, but one that can also trigger images of sweet candies.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Brown:</b> <i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Dirty. Strong.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Brown conjures images of dirt and other unsavory things, but also of wood and leather.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>Black:</b> <i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Elegant. Unique.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Black is different, it’s unusual, it’s dark and it can be enigmatic.</span></li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;"><b>White:</b> <i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Clean. Cold.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> A clinical color that may conjure images of hospitals, cleanliness and virtue.</span></li>
