Hobbies: Many have one, others have a handful anda few have none.

Youth have increasingly stressful schedules that maycramp into the few hobbies they may have found orhave yet to find.

According to research, hobbies can have many ben-efits, and parents commonly try to get their childrenfind their perfect fit hobby.

Hobbies may serve as an emotional outlet or a wayto relax. Hobbies can keep the mind and hands active.They also allow for quiet time and mind wandering -- which can free up creative thinking. Hobbies can also

serve as a means to connecting with people and open-ing up new groups of friends.Whats great about a hobby is it teaches you skills

you wont get any other way, said Marc Rosenblum ofHobbyTown in Fairfield.

HobbyTown, at 847 Post Road, offers radio control-items, models, rockets, games and railroad items.

The hottest hobby out there right now in termsof what kids are getting into and messing with rightnow is drones, said Rosenblum.

Drones are similar to radio-control helicopters, andhave four blades.

Theyre very stable and theyre very easy to fly, saidRosenblum.

Drones can be affordable to those parents who wantto get their youngster trying the hobby; prices can startat $50, and moderately-priced ones are $200.

Maybe you want your children to go a little more oldschool.

The hobby of radio control is very big, saidRosenblum. There are radio-control cars, trucks, air-planes and helicopters.

What we sell is hobby-grade, radio control items,Rosenblum said, which gives you more bang for yourbuck. If you break something you can repair it. If youdecide you want an upgrade, you can upgrade it (If off-roading your radio control truck suits your purpose).

If you buy something at Walmart or Toys R Us,

youre going to play with it, and if you break it, youhave to throw it away, said Rosenblum. Buying hobbygrade lets kids have their hobbies for years and years,and possibly pass it down to your grandkids.

Other popular hobbies Rosenblum said was Magicthe Gathering a card game and the store hasgame nights.

The bottom line, said Rosenblum, is it helps get kidsaway from smartphones and computers, and up andout. Youth can get using their hands and their brains,and have something to show for it.

When deciding on a hobby, you can first take aninventory of skills and interests.

Activities that require the use of the hands andmind include painting, puzzles, scrapbooking,music, sports and model building. These can keepthe mind active and improve dexterity and finemotor skills.

Next, you may want to consider the costs sur-rounding a hobby. While something like taking

photos may have relatively low costs, other thingsmay be expensive. Its important to weight thecosts against your finances to ensure that you willbe financially comfortable while opening yourchilds world in a particular hobby.

Explore what your childs friends are doing. Ifyou want them to get into a new hobby, or haveone, ask neighbors and friends what they do tokeep busy and try it out.

Visit a local hobby shop or craft store andbrowse through the aisles. See where your childsattention is drawn and give that activity a try. Frombuilding model trains and solar systems to creatingan herb garden or aquarium, there are dozens ofideas to try.

Its the end of August, and that means one thing:Schools starting.

Childrens educational journey is filled with explora-tion, learning and experience. With that, many coulduse a little extra help in their studies just by bucklingdown and getting to work. Others could benefit fromhelp from a professional tutor.

Children tend to regress over the summer, since they

arent working on academic skills five days a week, saidLauren Blanchette, who tutors youth in kindergartenthrough fifth grade. Come the fall, it often takes timefor students to build up their stamina again.

Blanchette is a certified teacher in Connecticut andNew York. She has an undergraduate degree in speechpathology and a double masters in childhood education(preschool through sixth grade) and literacy (readingand writing). She has six years experience teaching inpublic schools, including the Rye and Ridgefield schoolsdistricts. She has taught first through fifth grade. Shecomes to students homes to help them with their les-sons.

One way to help a student build their stamina backup again is by setting reasonable goals for the student.said Blanchette.

For example, invite a student to read independentlyfor a small amount of time and then gradually increasethe amount of time a child spends on reading. It is alsoimportant to celebrate when a child accomplishes some-thing. For example, play an educational game or read adessert book (book of interest.)

It is important to keep children engaged by focusingon things that interest them. For example, if a studentlikes animals, you could find both fiction and non-fic-tion books about a specific animal. A student can thendo a research project or write an informational pieceabout that specific animal.

When I tutor students, I focus on their needs andinterests and allow that to guide the lessons. I also try todo kinesthetic and fun interactive learning activities tohelp keep the students engaged. I would also love if youcould include in the article that I am flexible with doingindividual or small group sessions.

If you are interested in contacting Blanchette, call herat 516-769-6067 or at [email protected].

Children can be rough on their toys, andmany a toy has found its way into the garbagepile long before parents could have imaginedit would when they purchased the item. Butthere are various, easy ways to rehabilitatetoys so they can go on to have more utilityand not end up in the garbage prematurely.

The following suggestions can help restoresome of the luster that made kids love theirnow-damaged toys.

Fix tangled doll hairDolls come out of the box looking pristine,

but after a few play sessions, their nylon lockscan become a knotted mess, and brushingonly seems to make it worse. Rather than giv-ing that princess doll a buzz cut to remedythe bad hair day, visit your laundry room. Filla spray bottle with a 50-50 mix of water andliquid fabric softener. Spray the solution ontothe doll hair. Use a comb or brush to workout the tangles, then rinse the hair with cleanwater. Allow to dry before putting it back intoyour youngsters toy box.

Clean up plush toys

Plush toys are often childrens first andmost beloved companions. As a result, theycan become grimy from constantly beingdragged here and there through areas that arenot always very clean. Many plush toys can berun through a washing machines gentle cycle.Place the stuffed toy in a light-colored pil-lowcase, being sure to securely close the pil-lowcase to protect the plastic eyes and othercomponents of the plush. Wash and tumbledry on low to refresh the toy.

Adding a little more stuffing to a plush toy

can make a world of difference as well. Find aseam and make a small hole in the stitching.Stuff in some more batting or loose fill pur-chased from a craft store. Use an unsharpenedpencil to push the stuffing into hard-to-reachareas, such as thin arms and legs of the doll.Then stitch up the hole before giving the toyback to your child.

Clean gummed-up electronicsElectronic toys are favorites for many chil-

dren. Toys with keyboards or buttons thatneed to be pressed can become stuck overtime, rendering the toy useless thanks todebris that accumulates. It can be challeng-ing to clean electronic toys because they aresensitive to water. Use a rag soaked with dishliquid and water. Ring out the rag before wip-ing down the surface of the toy.

This will help clean up any sticky residueand other dirt. Use a cotton swab dipped inrubbing alcohol to clean in between tightareas, such as between keys. Rubbing alcoholevaporates quickly, so it is generally safer touse on electronics than water. The alcoholalso can help disinfect the toy.

Before discarding kids toys, parents canfirst explore the many ways to give the itemsnew life.

Why buy it when you can makeit yourself? is a mantra many craft-ers or do-it-yourselfers live by.Crafting can be an excellent outletfor self-expression and an enter-taining way to pass the time. Manycrafters even turn their hobbies into

successful business ventures.

Natural elementsCrafters are taking their cues from

nature, and youre certain to findnatural elements, such as wood,bark and burlap, in craft projects.Distressed finishes on furnitureand photo frames will still demandattention. Do-it-yourself projects,such as turning a slab of a tree trunkinto a table or upcycling woodenshipping palettes into shelving, alsowill grow in popularity. Wheneverworking on designs that featurenatural materials, try to repurposeelements whenever possible for themost rustic, authentic feel.

Chevron and diamondsThose sprucing up home deco-

rating elements with stencils orchalk paint can find inspiration inmany places. Patterns that continueto show up in abundance includechevron and various incarnations ofthe diamond. Its easy to dress upjust about any element with somewell-placed stenciling, which doesnot necessarily require a wealth ofskill or experience. Stencils also canbe used on flooring to create a fauxarea rug effect.

Paper invitationsParents can also have children

create their own invitations to theirbirthday parties. This may spike an

interest for more crafty items to cre-ate like notebook covers, pencil boxdesigns and more.

Color of the YearIf you get giddy over the warmth

of browns and reds, you will beenamored with Pantones 2015Color of the Year. The authority oncolor and a provider of color sys-tems, Pantone has chosen Marsalato be the it shade for 2015.Blending burgundy and brown tonesto create a hue perfect for filling a

wine glass or painting dining roomwalls, you will see plenty of thisrobust shade in decorative elementsand clothing in the year ahead.

Bringing the outside inAn ecologically sound and cre-

ative trend for spring involves craft-ing your own garden terrarium.Terrariums can be made out of justabout any shaped glass or plasticcontainer. Use hardy plants and amoisture-holding substrate to help

your terrarium flourish. Terrariumscan be interesting focal points forany room, and theyre a creativeuse for empty vases, aquariums andother containers collecting dust.

Painting on canvasEach year brings with it a new

crafting obsession. This year itspoised to be watercolor painting.Classes are bound to pop up incraft stores and other hobby centersnear you. Or you can experiment at

home with just a few basic tools.Another growing paint trend is to

enjoy a ladies night out that pairspainting with wine and socializa-tion. Participants work on a paintingover a predetermined number ofsessions and then take their master-pieces home.

Spring into greenGreen hues and floral and foli-

age patterns for decorating will bepopular this year. Anyone can liven

up interior spaces with elementsthat borrow from nature, includingleaf patterns and flowers.

Crafting continues to be a popularform of expression and a belovedpastime. Certain trends emerge eachyear that set the course for do-it-yourself projects.

As students across Connecticut prepare tohead back to school, families are stockingup on all the necessary supplies, from pens,

pencils and notebooks to clothing, shoes andbackpacks.

Myra Odenwaelder, Griffin Hospitals direc-tor of rehabilitation services, suggested par-ents and kids take extra care when choosing abackpack.

Backpacks have been known to case sev-eral musculoskeletal issues, from neck pain toshoulder pain to back pain, if not used appro-priately, Odenwaelder told HAN Radio. Infact, in 2013, there were over 22,000 sprains,strains, dislocations and fractures related toinappropriate backpack use.

She said injuries can be prevented bychoosing the right backpack, packing it lightand wearing it correctly.

First, ones size should be considered when

picking out a backpack. It should match thescale of the child, and Odenwaelder said,fit between the shoulder and waist, as well

as have sufficient padding in the back andon the shoulder straps and have two straps.Messenger bags, although popular, do notdistribute weight properly and place a lot ofstress and strain on one side of the body,she said.

Odenwaelder also suggested taking advan-tage of the chest and waist straps.

Its just like choosing an appropriate pairof shoes or new clothing, Odenwaelder said.Its important that the person choosing thebackpack takes the time to try it out. Makesure that it fits comfortably before purchasingit.

Once the perfect backpack is selected, thenext step is to make sure it is not too heavy.According to one report, about 55% of stu-

dents are carrying backpacks heavier thanthe American Academy of Pediatrics recom-mended guidelines of 10 to 20% of a childs

body weight.Therefore, a child who weighs between 55

and 60 pounds should carry no more than 12pounds in his or her backpack. However, thisnumber should be adjusted depending on achilds fitness level and strength.

A backpack that is too heavy may result inred marks on the shoulders or back from thestraps, tingling or numbness in the arms andback, changes in posture when wearing thebackpack and back pain.

Now is the opportunity to dust off thosebathroom scales, take them out, load yourbackpacks and weight them out. See howmuch they weigh, she said. Most people arecarrying too heavy loads.

One way to lighten the load is to carry only

necessary items. Children should only carrywhat is required for a particular school day.Parents are encouraged to consult with teach-

ers who routinely have students bring homeseveral heavy books as other options may beavailable.

Also, distributing the weight evenly isimportant. Odenwaelder said heavier, bulkieritems should be placed in the back of bags,close to the body, with smaller, lighter itemsin the front.

Following all these steps is necessary pre-vent backpack-related injuries.

You can go through and make appropriatepurchase, you can pack it appropriately, butif youre not wearing it correctly, it defeats thewhole process, Odenwaelder said. If it hastwo straps, use both. If it has waste and cheststraps, use those as well.

The right backpackcan make a difference in kids health
