sweet sleep…getting your children to sleep

Getting your baby to sleep after one long day is a nightmare.

Many parents go wrong by not emphasizing how important it is to have their little ones sleep. For example if your baby should be in bed by 8pm…then do so…put them to bed. Make sure they sleep immediately.

Should you change your babies sleep pattern to sleeping whenever is convenient…then your baby is likely to ape that habit and that will keep them awake.

Not meeting your babies bedtime, skipping nap times only leads to poor quality of sleep and one tired child and parent.

So if you are a new parent and want to introduce the habit of good sleep habits, remember you should practice consistency by making sure you put your baby to sleep when the are drowsy.

You could also teach your baby to sleep, by giving them a little stuffed animal or teddy that they can hold on to.

And if possible give your baby their own bed and room by the time they are 2 years of age.

Lastly, invest in baby decore, such as colorful material and make sure the room is warm and cosy, so that your baby can look around and feel a sense of security and most of all sleep.

By doing this… you are set to put a permanent solution to your sleepless nights!

Another bad habit is allowing your baby to fall asleep while nursing or bottle feeding.

This brings about the tendency of your baby waking up abruptly expecting to have another bottle of milk or nursing.

J C Leroux Wine Tasting : A Delight!

Good events are a rare case in Nairobi, not to forget a good drink. Willam Soklin, a New York wine merchant once said, " What is the definition of good wine? It should start and end with a smile." True to that saying, the wine was plenty and delightful at the J C Leroux wine tasting held at Alliance Francaise yesterday, 10th May,2012. The wine tasting courtesy of J C Leroux Sparkling Wine from Distell Winemasters opened the 21st European Film Festival at Alliance Francaise with participating countries including: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Slovak Republic, Spain, Sweden, Serbia & Switzerland. Below are the sights and sounds of the crowd and the wine, J C Leroux in sweet and dry variants that paired up with the all sorts of cheeses and made the cocktail worth the while.

It Has Been A Long While...

I do like my blog! However, I must confess, I abandoned it for a long while. So, maybe I can turn a new leaf and go back to writing? Hmm... Well, I will give it a shot. There is a whole lot to talk about, so let us get to it, shall we? " Don't Just Sit There. Do Something!" You see, I like to see businesses and people thrive. Their pain becomes my pain; their hurdles mine too. If it weren't so, why would I wake up aspiring for that morning sunshine, driven by their ambitions, teamed up with a necessity for the great pursuit. For whom; for what? Is it to be up held by the gentle relief, an ounce of 'better.' In wrapping these meandering good yet defined thoughts, I have come to the dear conclusions to roll-up sleeves of my own and all those who will and get involved. "Don't just sit there. Do something." I am reminded of that common wall paper that sits pretty in the washroom that were. If you will, manners and duty awaits.
