INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you want to invent a sport, you’ll have to see what kind of balls, rackets or sticks, and goal-type equipment you have. Look around your own house and ask your friends too. Make sure you have enough if each player needs to use their own stick or ball.  You might find a golf ball, a baseball bat, a football helmet, and a racket. You don’t have to pick up all of the stuff, but at least make a list of what you have. If you have no sports equipment, make a sport that doesn’t need any. Use just your body and your environment. Adapt running, hand-to-hand combat, or exercise into a sport. Use non-sports equipment for the game. Look for buckets, brooms, rocks, sticks, chairs, boxes, blankets, or any other household items to somehow use for a sport. Come up with how players score in the game. Have them throw something the farthest, or hit a ball the most times. Make sure you choose if they must reach a certain score, or if whoever has the best score or performance wins.  For example, you might have to score the most points to win. You might score by using the racket to hit the golf ball into the helmet from different distances away. The scoring doesn't have to be points. It could be accomplishing a task first, performing a feat best, or doing something the most times. You don’t have to make totally new rules for your game, just use the rules of other games you know. Make sure the rules tell players what they have to do and what they are not allowed to do. Combine rules from different sports so they fit together.  For example, most sports have boundary lines that players must stay within. If you cross a boundary line, the other player or team takes control of the game. Make rules about players touching each other. Football allows players to make physical contact with regulations about what's acceptable. Yet, baseball has very little contact. Include rules about how to use the equipment, such as kicking the ball in soccer, throwing and catching the ball in football, or tagging the base in baseball. Decide if your game is played one-on-one or with teams, or if it works with either. If there has to be an exact number, make sure you know how many. If the game works with different numbers of players, that will give you more freedom. For example, tennis only works with two players or four players, but basketball works with two to ten or more players. Make sure you have enough space to play. Stay away from buildings and anything else that might get in the way. You’ll need room to run around for most sports. Ask your parents before you go away from your house. If you need any type of boundaries or starting lines, use trees or the edge of the grass. If you have cones or rope, use that to set up lines, too.

SUMMARY: Gather up some sports equipment. Describe how the scoring works. Come up with a set rules for your game. Set a number of players who can play. Find an open place to play the sport in.

You can use a glass or plastic bottle as long as it is dark-colored; light will cause the hydrogen peroxide to degrade faster. Make sure that you are using distilled or filtered water. Use only 3% hydrogen peroxide. Anything higher could be damaging to your oral and dental health. Store the bottle in a cool, dark place until you are ready to use it. Pour some mouthwash into a cup.

Q: It's important to define bullying appropriately, to avoid labeling every negative social interaction as a case of bullying, as some conflict has nothing to do with bullying and may be a sign of normal, healthy relating. Bullying is unwanted, aggressive behavior that involves a real or perceived power imbalance. The behavior is repeated, or has the potential to be repeated, over time. Both bullies and victims may have serious, lasting problems. Something personal can be going on in the bully's life. They need a punching bag to take their anger or sadness out on, and unfortunately, it is you. Don't take this personally. Most likely, it has nothing to do with you.
A: Know what bullying is. Realize their actions might not have anything to do with you.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Tape patches of bubble wrap to the knees of your paints before you begin gardening. This can prevent scraped or achy knees as you kneel on the dirt or pavement. Wrap your plants' pots in a layer of bubble wrap and duct tape it in place. This insulation can keep plants warm in cool temperatures if they are more sensitive to the cold. Make sure that the bubble wrap extends a few inches or centimeters above the lip of the container to keep the soil warm. Cover your car windshield with bubble wrap in the evening, pinning it down with your windshield wipers to keep it from blowing away. This will keep snow or frost from settling on your windshield overnight to make driving in the morning simpler. When the temperatures start dropping, wrap your outdoor pipes and spouts with bubble wrap to prevent freezing or bursting. Tie the bubble wrap down with string to keep it from falling off.

SUMMARY:
Protect your knees while gardening. Protect potted plants from frost damage. Prevent your car windshield from frost. Winterize your pipes and spouts.
