Welcome to the J&D Ultracare blog! If this is your first time here, we are a home care nursing agency that provides skilled nursing services to the medically fragile population.

On the J&D Ultracare blog, we like to give tips for parents that will help them take care of their children. This can include health related topics, such as “Three Tips For Encouraging Healthy Eating Habits With Kids“. But it’s also equally important to ensure that kids are frequently participating in activities. This keeps them engaged and entertained, bringing a smile to their face!

One great activity for children is arts and crafts. This is fantastic because it can let their imaginations run wild! Below, we’ve highlighted five different craft supplies that children can use to make something they’ll love. All five of these ideas come directly from a website called Yummy Toddler Food. If you like these ideas and want to read more, we highly recommend you read the full post by clicking here.

• WATER COLOR PAINT: Easy to use and pretty, water color paint is (at least in my experience) often less messy than washable tempura paint. Just keep the amount of water you offer with the paints to a minimum!
• PLAYDOUGH: It doesn’t matter what kind of playdough you use (though we just go with the classic since we replace ours regularly as the kids mix the colors…), but having this sort of clay to shape and pretend with is so great for open-ended playtime.
• PIPE CLEANERS: Tuck in the ends when using pipe cleaners with toddlers under 3 so the sharper ends are safe, then see what you can create. Make letters and jewelry. Let the kids string O cereal onto one. Bend around your finger to make a curl. The options are endless!
• POM-POMS: Hand some over in a bowl to a one year old and play however seems right or use them to decorate papers, cardboard letters or any other surface. You can also use them to practice sorting shapes and sizes.
• CONSTRUCTION PAPER: Pick up a package of rainbow paper to have on hand whenever the kids want to make things.

Here on the J&D Ultracare blog, we love to write helpful articles for new parents. A few months ago, we wrote a post called “Five Tips That Will Help Your Kids Sleep Easier”, which you can read by clicking here. While these tips certainly help kids go to sleep, it’s equally important to eliminate bad habits at night as well. For example, kids should avoid looking at screens because the blue light can make it harder to fall asleep!

We want to share a list of four things that your kids shouldn’t do at night to help them go to sleep. These four tips come directly from a great article from the Sleep Foundation. If you find this interesting and want to learn more, you can read the full article by clicking here.

Don’t:

• Let them use screens: The blue light from television and other electronic devices has serious consequences for sleep if used too close to bedtime.
• Let them run around: Your child should have plenty of opportunities to burn off steam during the day, but don’t let them work themselves into a frenzy at night or they’ll be too wired to sleep.
• Give sugary treats or caffeine: Try to keep evening snacks light and healthy. Caffeine will keep kids awake, and sugary treats before bed can lead to cavities¹³. Breakfast cereals, chocolate, and pudding can be sources of caffeine you may not expect. If your baby is bottle-feeding, remove the bottle before they fall asleep.
• Read scary bedtime stories: Avoid scary stories and other mentally or physically stimulating activities before bed.
