Alcohol-Free Bach Flower Remedy for Kids on What Children Do!®
Bach flower remedies are dilutions of flower material developed by Edward Bach, an English bacteriologist, pathologist and homeopath, in the 1930s.[1] Bach believed that dew found on flower petals retain healing properties of that plant.[2] The remedies are intended primarily for emotional and spiritual conditions, including but not limited to depression, anxiety, insomnia and stress.
The remedies contain a very small amount of flower material in a 50:50 solution of brandy and water. Because the remedies are extremely diluted they do not have a characteristic scent or taste of the plant. It is claimed that the remedies contain “energetic” or “vibrational” nature of the flower and that this can be transmitted to the user.[3] Bach flower remedies are considered vibrational medicines, and rely on a concept of water memory. They are often labeled as homeopathic because they are extremely diluted in water, but are not true homeopathy as they do not follow other homeopathic precepts such as the law of similars or the belief that curative powers are enhanced by shaking and repeated diluting (“succussion”) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bach_flower_remedies).

Voyage on the Mayflower
The Mayflower has a famous place in American history as a symbol of early European colonization of the future United States.[6](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mayflower).
Portugal and Spain founded Navigation Schools. These schools produced expertly trained mathematical and

What is an Isotope?
- An Isotope is a form of element with same atomic number: each of two or more forms of a chemical element with the same atomic number but different numbers of neutrons. Isotopes of a given element share the same number of protons. The number of protons uniquely defines the element.
- The nuclei of most atoms contain neutrons as well as protons. (An exception is the common form of hydrogen, whose nucleus consists of a lone proton). Every chemical element has more than one isotope. For any element, one of the isotopes is more abundant in

nature than any of the others, although often multiple isotopes of a single element are mixed (http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/isotope).

What are the Olympic Games? According to the encyclopedia, The Olympic Games are:
The Olympic Games (French: les Jeux olympiques) (JO)[1], is a major international event featuring summer and winter sports, in which thousands of athletes participate in a variety of competitions. The Olympic Games have come to be regarded as the world’s foremost sports competition where more than 200 nations participate.[2] The Games are currently held every two years, with Summer and Winter Olympic Games alternating, although they occur every four years within their respective seasonal games. Originally, the ancient Olympic Games were held in Olympia, Greece, from the 8th century BC to the 4th century AD. Baron Pierre de Coubertin founded the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in 1894. The IOC has since become the governing body of the Olympic Movement, whose structure and actions are defined by the Olympic Charter (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_Games).
The evolution of the Olympic Movement during the 20th and 21st centuries has resulted in several changes to the Olympic Games. Some of these adjustments include the creation of the Winter Games for ice and winter sports, the Paralympic Games for athletes

with a physical disability, and the Youth Olympic Games for teenage athletes. The IOC has had to adapt to the varying economic, political, and technological realities of the 20th century. As a result, the Olympics shifted away from pure amateurism, as envisioned by Coubertin, to allow participation of professional athletes. The growing importance of the mass media created the issue of corporate sponsorship and commercialization of the Games. World Wars led to the cancellation of the 1916, 1940, and 1944 Games. Large boycotts during the Cold War limited participation in the 1980 and 1984 Games (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_Games).
The Olympic Movement consists of international sports federations (IFs), National Olympic Committees (NOCs), and organizing committees for each specific Olympic Games. As the decision-making body, the IOC is responsible for choosing the host city for each Olympic Games. The host city is responsible for organizing and funding a celebration of the Games consistent with the Olympic Charter. The Olympic program, consisting of the sports to be contested at the Games, is also determined by the IOC. The celebration of the Games encompasses many rituals and symbols, such as the Olympic flag and torch, as well as the opening and closing ceremonies. Over 13,000 athletes compete at the Summer and Winter Olympics in 33 different sports and nearly 400 events. The first, second, and third place finishers in each event receive Olympic medals; gold, silver, and bronze, respectively (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_Games).
The Games have grown in scale to the point that nearly every nation is represented. Such growth has created numerous challenges, including boycotts, doping, bribery of officials, and terrorism. Every two years, the Olympics and its

media exposure provide unknown athletes with the chance to attain national, and in particular cases, international fame. The Games also constitute a major opportunity for the host city and country to showcase itself to the world (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic_Games).

What Children Do!®: Happy Mother’s Day
Happy Mother’s Day from What Children Do!®
This Notice might just be to Your Mother! Happy Mother’s Day to you and yours!
Mother’s Day is a celebration honoring mothers and celebrating motherhood, maternal bonds and the influence of mothers in society. It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, yet most commonly in March, April, or May. It complements Father’s Day, the celebration honoring fathers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother’s_Day).
Celebrations of mothers and motherhood occur throughout the world; many of these can be traced back to ancient festivals, like the Greek cult to Cybele, the Roman festival of Hilaria or the Christian Mothering Sunday celebration (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother’s_Day).
What Children Do!®: How Astronomy Has Contributed to Technology!
What is Astronomy?
Astronomy is a natural science that deals with the study of celestial objects (such as stars, planets, comets, nebulae, star clusters and galaxies) and phenomena that originate outside the atmosphere of Earth (such as cosmic background radiation). It is concerned with the evolution, physics, chemistry, meteorology, and motion of celestial objects, as well as the formation and development of the universe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomy).
Astronomy is one of the oldest sciences. Prehistoric cultures left behind astronomical artifacts such as the Egyptian monuments, Nubian monuments and Stonehenge, and early civilizations such as the Babylonians, Greeks, Chinese, Indians, Iranians and Maya performed methodical observations of the night sky. However, the invention of the telescope was required before astronomy was able to develop into a modern science. Historically, astronomy has included disciplines as diverse as astrometry, celestial navigation, observational astronomy, the making of calendars, and astrology, but professional astronomy is nowadays often considered to be synonymous with astrophysics (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomy).

John O’ Sullivan on What Children Do!®
According to Astronomy Magazine Vol. 40 no. 5 May 2012 issue, Astronomy has done many things for Technology, including:
- Developed wireless internet. John O’ Sullivan developed this signal for evaporating black holes. This signal is now used as the wireless internet system.
- GPS (Global Positioning System) comes from 24 of the 30 satellites being used for the general public.
- The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) which is scheduled to launch 2018 is also used for optical mapping in technology.
- The study of the Sun’s Chemical composition is used for cancer treatment, X-ray and gold nanoparticle.

Imagination is “That”!
Shapes in the rocks on What Children Do!®
Imagination or creativity is a part of the mind, where ideas, thoughts, and images (pictures) are formed. Imagination also helps to think of ways of dealing with difficulties or problems. Like having an “eye” in your mind, “the mind’s eye”, and dreams. Imagination is the strongest when the images (pictures) and ideas are things never seen or experienced directly.

From: HDATS MAG! hair designs across the street magazine®
Saint Valentine’s Day, commonly shortened to Valentine’s Day,[1][2][3] is an annual commemoration held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions.[1][3] The day is named after one or more early Christian martyrs named Saint Valentine, and was established by Pope Gelasius I in 496 AD. It was deleted from the General Roman Calendar of saints in 1969 by Pope Paul VI. It is traditionally a day on which lovers express their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as “valentines“). The day first became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly loveflourished.Modern Valentine’s Day symbols include the heart-shaped outline, doves, and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have given way to mass-produced greeting cards.[4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valentine_Day)
What Children Do!®: What is a Short Story?
This topic is endorsed by Tres Mali Scott’s Poetry & Short Stories.
A short story has six elements, including:
- Setting–time, location, & place.
- Plot–arrangement or sequence of events.
- Conflict–external or internal–can be–physical, classical, social, or psychological.
- Character–the person you are talking about or the characteristics of “a” person.
- Point-of-view–how the story is told.
- Theme–the main idea that controls the flow & other elements of the short story.
A short story is a work of fiction that is usually written in prose, often in narrative format. This format tends to be more pointed than longer works of fiction, such as novellas (in the 20th and 21st century sense) and novels. Short story definitions based on length differ somewhat, even among professional writers, in part because of the fragmentation of the medium into genres. Since the short story format includes a wide range of genres and styles, the actual length is determined by the individual author’s preference (or the story’s actual needs in terms of creative trajectory or story arc) and the submission guidelines relevant to the story’s actual market. Guidelines vary greatly among publishers.[1](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_story)
Many short story writers define their work through a combination of creative, personal expression, and artistic integrity. They attempt to resist categorization by genre as well as definition by numbers, finding such approaches limiting and counter-intuitive to artistic form and reasoning. As a result, definitions of the short story based on length splinter even more when the writing process is taken into consideration (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_story).
