It’s Read Across America Week this week. This is to promote and encourage reading to our children and grandchildren and make a habit of reading 20 minutes or more a day. Reading helps enhance their speech and vocabulary skills. Age appropriate books are recommended to children in order for them to properly transition to reading levels. To make this reading habits successful, we parents should limit screen time. We should take our kids to book shopping and let them choose the books that interest them.
Darling daughter was very glad that we were able to attend the STEAM Night at school two weeks ago. She enjoyed participating in different interactive exhibits with her classmates.
STEAM Night is a yearly event by the school to promote educational awareness and fun activities for the students in connection with Science and Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM).
My DD’s favorite was the coding. She might become a software engineer in the future. 🙂
It was a beautiful Sunday even though it was raining all day. We got to see friends and family at my friend’s house for her daughter’s 7th birthday party. The kids had a great time playing indoors.
Floral birthday cake.
There were lots of delicious food mostly cooked by my friend R. This beautiful floral birthday cake was baked by a friend, too. We were joking that it’s too beautiful to eat. My friend L, who baked this pretty cake, is taking orders but in and around Dallas area only.
Mixed fruits and sweet treats.
The grownups, as well as the young ones, had a great time catching up and played Bingo for about a couple of hours. It was a simple yet a very fun birthday celebration for Ari.
Brace yourselves it’s winter time again. Snow storms, blizzard, freezing rain, icy roads…you name it. It is super cold. The winter weather is unpredictable at times. Laziness gets in the way because we know it is sometimes impossible to go out and run errands when it is freezing cold outside. We also think of comfort foods this cold season. We make all kinds of homemade soup and hot meals for our family to keep us warm.
Speaking of comfort and warm, what else can we think of to keep us warm in this wintry weather? Of course, we thought of winter clothing like coats, jackets, hoodies, thermals, and accessories (scarves, beanies, and winter socks). Wearing warm winter clothes helps keep our body warm in the winter. Though our homes are well-insulated and the heaters provide the heat we need, wearing weather appropriate clothing like thermal clothes and heated socks provides comfort in the wintertime. I mostly wear jackets and fleece pants everyday. Also, wearing winter socks around the house keeps me warm because I don’t like my feet feeling cold at all.

Staying home most of the time in the winter is boring, I know. I am also an outdoor person but in this cold weather, my motivation to do fun stuff outdoors is very low. But we need to be active to stay healthy and the freezing weather cannot stop some of us who like to have fun outdoors. Snow sledding, skiing, tubing, and riding snow mobiles are fun. To keep us from frost bites and hypothermia, winter gears and accessories are to the rescue. Cozy Winters electric socks can be worn especially when skiing, sledding, or ice tubing. These will help prevent our toes from feeling frozen in freezing temperatures. I remember one winter day years ago when I just walked outside in the snow wearing regular socks in my winter boots. My toes were numb and hurting after a few minutes of playing in the snow. I learned my lesson. I had heated socks since then.
I love winter season but not quite the freezing weather. Thanks to the warm winter products because these make our lives convenient and comfortable. Cozy Winters have them all.
