Folding Dinner table napkins

Folding dinner table napkins is a fun activity that can improve your child’s Patience, focus and concentration.

As you guide the child to learn how to fold it, note that the napkin should have the stitched indication grid lines. This improves the child’s eye- hand coordination and as they practice, they are refining their pincer grip.

We should be keen as we gauge and introduce the child to different types of napkin folding depending on their age and your observation on their readiness or how skilled they are as each child is unique in their own way. The different napkins vary according to their grid indication lines. This control of error lines alerts them if they are on the right path of folding and unfolding. These napkin shapes also introduce them to basics on geometry and fraction in their future lessons.

A fabric that is not too soft or hard is recommended. Let the child do this activity a few times for them to learn properly with your guidance.

SEX IN EXCHANGE FOR PADS!

Girls  deserve the right to basic needs. The right to gradually be the directors of our lives as we keep maturing in every phase of life. She deserves the right to education, and experiencing a fun teenage life. This is not the case for this 13-year-old, whose life path has been altered by another human being. Transactional sex in exchange for a sanitary pad. This girl, at 13 is now forced to deal with pregnancy load, a misfortune that was unforeseen. At this age as a minor, her lack of commodity, forcing her to make uninformed choice should not have happened. Yet this is a case of a perpetuator, taking advantage of her vulnerability. She is now forced to deal with the burden of being a teenage mother. This can turn into a lifetime of traumatizing experience. This is inhumane. Our minor girls are suffering in the hands of such. Stop this cruelty today! Support without asking for sex as a trade in.

PLASTICS AND LANDFILLS

  If we expect thriving results from the spaces we occupy and the surroundings that we do not occupy-then, taking action is the first step to nourishing these environments. Information is highly accessible; awareness has been vibrant. The lingering question is, why are we not acting now? It should occur to us that, in its microscopic phases-the face of the earth is slowly deteriorating. Our egotistical human activities have been benefiting us at the expense of compromising mother nature as it suffers from| our negligence. Informal waste disposal and management of tonnes of single-use plastic products has been and is hazardous to our environment. Its production still tops the manufacturing industry charts, yet its disposal is still wanting. Landfills are a source of income for many, but poorly managed landfills are now homes that cultivate land and air pollution. Human health is in jeopardy as toxic chemicals from plastics emit into the air we breathe. This needs to be examined and cont
