Playing Ping Pong is Good for Your Child!

I’ve just come back home from our two weeks visit to my brother who lives in another town. Though it’s just three days ago, I’ve missed Rafa –my nephew- already. He’s a smart young boy; his age will be seven years old in two months ahead.

I really want to make him happy by sending him a surprising gift on his coming birthday. When I stayed at his home, I noticed that he plays video game almost every day and he seldom plays a real physical sport game.

Since her mother doesn’t allow my nephew to play games that can make him injured, I avoid choosing basketball and football stuffs. Fortunately, I’ve got a good idea; why don’t I choose Ping Pong Tables and send it as a special birthday gift? I don’t know whether my nephew has ever tried to play ping pong before; but I guess my brother can teach him. It can be a great father and son bonding, right?

Based on some sources, I've read that playing table tennis can offer some advantages. Ping pong is good for your health, easy to play, good for your brain, good for your body’s reflexes, efficient in space, and little injury risk. Her mother surely permits my nephew to play tennis table at home. I can’t wait seeing his happy face while playing ping pong!

10 Things to do to Get Your Home Ready for a Party

With the silly season fast approaching it is likely that you are in the process of planning either a Christmas or New Years Eve party. There is no need to get stressed, it just takes a bit of organisation and careful planning, and your party will go off without a hitch. Think about hosting your party outdoors, making the most of the warmer weather. You will need some sort of shelter for you guests, either a retractable awning or a veranda. If you are going to be partying inside help keep your home cool by leaving your front and back door open. With all those extra bodies it will quickly warm up, so leave the doors open, keeping the security doors locked, to encourage a cool breeze to blow through.

List of guests

One of the first things you will need to do is work out your guest list. This will give you an idea of how much food and drinks you will need to buy, as well as help you set your budget. You might be having a party for family or throwing a bash for close friends. You could be organising a more formal evening for your partners work colleagues. It could be a kid’s party you are planning for. Consider your guest list and what this selection of people will enjoy eating and drinking. Also consider whether they will want a more structured evening or something casual.

Lock in the date

As soon as you can work out the date lock it in! Don't worry about trying to find a date to suit everyone as this is virtually impossible. The key is to get in early before everyone's diaries are full with other invitations. As soon as you work out your date and guest list get those invitations out there.

Plan the menu

The style of party will determine your menu. A kids party menu will be very different from a formal gathering for your boss and work colleagues for example. Also think about whether the party will be held outside and serve food that is going to keep. If you are doing the cooking yourself decide how much effort you want to go to in preparing the food.

Decorations
If it is a Christmas, birthday or New Years Eve party then decorations add a nice touch. Don't forget to decorate your outdoor entertainment area if you are planning on partying outside.

Shopping
Do your shopping a few days in advance for non-perishable items, such as drinks and things you can freeze. Buy things like seafood the day before, which is definitely better served fresh.

Don't do it alone
Make sure you aren't left to prepare the whole party yourself. Give your partner or even the kids some specific tasks in the lead up to the party. Have your partner mow the lawn or teach the kids how to use the vacuum cleaner. If you don't want to be stuck in the kitchen all night perhaps you might want to think about hiring a caterer.

Theme
Dressing up is always fun, even if it is just giving guests to put on their best cocktail dress. Having a theme gives you the option to incorporate the food, drinks, as well as the decorations into the theme.

Entertainment
The type of entertainment you have will depend on your party and your budget. The are specialist entertainers for kids parties, like fairies, magicians and clowns, or you might want to hire a jumping castle. For a casual party with friends playing your favourite music would be enough. For a big party you might want to hire a band or music group, or even an MC if it is a formal evening with speeches.

Outdoors

Clean up your outdoor area. Mow the lawn, tidy the garden and clean up the outdoor furniture.

Security
Keep an eye on who is coming into your house. If you are having a lot of guests it is often easier to leave the front door unlocked with so many people coming in. Just be aware of who is there. If you are worried about it you might want to lock the security door.

The key to a successful party is planning in advance and considering the type of party to suit your guests./image:clipartinc/

Sick but at Home Again

Getting Apartments for Rent in Ohio

A friend who lives in USA said that he’ll move to Ohio in a few months ahead. During our last conversation, my friend stated that he still can’t decide between renting Cuyahoga Falls apartments and buying a small house nearby. Since his work makes him usually moves to another state every after five years, I think he’s more proper to rent an apartment. Compared to own a house, living in apartment can give him freedom and easiness to move with no need to concern about a 10 or a 20 year mortgage. He can stay and leave whenever and wherever he likes!

Factually, paying apartment rent is less costly than spending an enormous mortgage every month. He can save money much while he’s able to enjoy comfortable life style.

To get most benefits from living in apartment, always make sure that you deal with reliable management. Searching for suggestion, opinion, and recommendation from trusted people is an important step that you should do. If you’re interested in apartments in Akron; don’t forget to discover first other tenant’s experiences. It will be a great guidance for you to make your final decision. To feel and value the apartment environment, visiting the apartment a few times at different days of the week is a must.

If you plan to live in apartment with your family, you may receive complaints from downstairs’ neighbors about your children’s loud sound and running, unless you can find the well insulated apartment for noise or take an apartment at the ground floor. Most apartments have less space than average home; make sure that your apartment space can accommodate the whole family members.

Reputable apartment management will provide various facilities for every resident; such as safety, apartment maintenance, swimming pools, sport club, laundry services, car parking, and many other facilities. Apartment living can be a wonderful experience, as long as you choose an apartment that suits your need and budget.

How to Choose the Right Type of Garden

There are a few things you should consider when you put in your garden. As well as what type of plants you put in, you should also think about what type of structures you can build to make the most of your space. Patios are great to use as entertainment areas and also give you an area of much needed shade. If you have a pool you will need to think about putting in a garden that will work well around it. Your garden can also be used to help disguise things, like the pool filter.

Climate

As well as choosing trees and plants that you like for your garden, you also will need to consider your climate. Tropical plants, for example, are not going to flourish in the southern parts of the country, and species that thrive in cooler climates will not last in a tropical far north Queensland. To make your gardening life easier, choose plants and trees that are going to suit the climate. You will find they grow easily and don't have to be nursed along.

Soil type

Before you put in any plants you should do a soil test to ascertain the pH levels of the soil. It is important to know whether you soil is more acidic or more alkaline. You can easily work this out for yourself with a simple soil testing kit. This information should be taken into consideration when you visit your local nursery as different plants are better suited to certain soil types. Nursery staff will be able to help you with your plant decisions.

Style of home

You should also take into account your style of home. If you have a more modern home you should have your garden reflect this style. Take a more minimalist approach with your garden and choose plants that make a dramatic statement on their own. Things that have large colourful leaves or unusual shaped flowers often work well. With a period home an old fashioned cottage garden always looks lovely, although this is a high maintenance style garden so be prepared for the upkeep.

Lifestyle

It is important that you consider your lifestyle when you go to put your garden in. You don't want to have a garden that requires a lot of time and work to maintain if you are hardly ever home, or if you dislike gardening. If you are luckily enough to be able to afford a gardener then this is not an issue, but you don't want to put in a garden that is going to look constantly overgrown and untidy, plus add to your normal weekly work load.

Children

If you have children you want to make your garden child friendly. To stop them from destroying any more formal parts of your garden, create an area especially for them. Put aside a corner and turn it into an adventure playground. Build them a cubby or a tree house, where no grownups are allowed, and have an area for a swing set or sand pit.

Think about what sort of garden is going to suit you, and be somewhere to relax and enjoy, rather than creating too much extra work.
