Summary of the week from January 11 to 17 in Peques and More

We return a week full of information, resources and content for all those who want to follow learning about those wonderful children from 5 to 12 years old that make our lives happy every day. And since Peques and more We bring you our weekly summary for the whole family.

The Spanish Association of Pediatrics asks to advance the measles vaccine before the alarming number of new cases. We echoed the didactic video that explains why antibiotics for viral conditions are not indicated with a very simple reminder, antibiotics are to kill bacteria and do nothing with viruses.

The dietitian Dukan proposed raise the note to thin students. We comment on a series of recommendations for situations that may be uncomfortable for parents of children with autism and that have their cause in poor information and communication management around this issue by society in general.

And about the snack we comment that parents prepare more or less carefully the snack for our kidsFrom the sandwich to a banana to leave school, everything goes for a snack, but you have to check the type of food we offer. We also congratulate McDonald's initiative to give a book with the purchase of a Happy Meal, although it is only in Great Britain where this interesting promotion will take place.

At home we were very concerned that children ask for toys that simulate diseases. I don't think it's a good idea because Children have to use their toys to develop their imagination and dreams. We also learned that we can acquire art and culture competitions at home with parents acting as facilitators with our children.

We follow in sales season and I bet they will last a long time this year. In addition, the product offer can also be found on the Internet with stores such as Yuppis where you can find all the Pablosky, Footgol, Nasa and Paola brands.

The children begin to play and to experience interactivity all the more when we bring the new devices on the market, phones and tablets. Now they can play from an early age with Lego Duplo applications for iPad or with the Cut The Rope game that requires skill and intelligence to choose the most suitable one. We also introduce Jakolab, an Italian company also specialized in developments for tablets and for very young children.

Another way to access learning with kids is to let them mess with Google Doodles. They have just published the ones generated by this important company in 2011. We also introduced Blanet and his model of distance language education with a pioneer project in rural areas.

And watch out for television at home. We always say it, but you have to remember it. Television can be a powerful influence in the development of a value system and in the formation of children's behavior. Unfortunately, a large part of the current programming is violent. So you have to let the children play and the activity last for many years, the figure for the week has been that one third of the 9 year old children play less than an hour a day. So we anticipate the arrival of adolescence An atrocity.

We also congratulate ourselves on initiatives such as this one of the solidarity race organized by the Spanish Federation of Rare Diseases (FEDER) that seeks to give visibility to infrequent pathologies and help families living with them at home.

As always, we recommend that you go through Peques and more, so that you can review these contents more widely as well as discover more articles than those included in this summary. Until next week!
