article: Babies aren’t born with the idea of object permanence; that is, something still exists even though it can’t be seen. That means that for a baby, when you are in another room, you might never come back. Understandably, this is scary for a baby! You can start to teach your baby the idea that things continue to exist even when the baby can’t see them by playing “Peek-a-Boo.” Most babies love to play "Peek-a-Boo" with their caregiver, starting at the age of about 4 months.  Whether you play “Peek-a-Boo” with your hands covering your face, with a blanket, or with something else (such as a towel or a scarf), is less important than the routine of covering your face and then uncovering it. Playing “Peek-a-Boo” teaches your baby not to be anxious because you’ll come back, no matter what. You can teach older babies to lift the blanket up and down himself/herself. . Even though your baby might be a long way from learning to read for himself, he will enjoy hearing your voice and developing the language part of his brain. Try using different voices, tones, pitches, gruffness, and accents to make it more entertaining. Point at and name each thing on a page.  Babies tend to love repetition, so don’t be afraid of reading a book too frequently. As your baby gets older, start to encourage him to turn the pages of the book on his own. Thicker pages will help support his fine motor coordination. Once a child is around 6 months old, you might try playing with food. Food can be an entertaining activity even when not at meal times. Place the baby in a high chair with a secure tray. You’ll want to stay close by, but a high chair will provide a safe place for your baby to be while she entertains herself. For example, put a few spoonfuls of yogurt directly on the high chair tray makes for fun “finger painting” for a baby.  You can put ice cubes onto her tray to play with as they melt. Make sure you take the ice cubes away by the time they get small enough to put into her mouth. Playing with rice or pasta noodles makes for good fun as well. Non-food toys at a high chair might include the metal rings from canning jars, which can be chewed, stacked, banged or rolled around on her tray. Just be sure there are no sharp edges on items you give to your baby. A baby might also enjoy playing with utensils such as wooden spoons, rubber spatulas, or silicone brushes. If your baby doesn’t like to put new things into her mouth, soap foam can be a great toy to play with. To make nontoxic soap foam, you can a few tablespoons of water to ¼ cup of nontoxic liquid bath soap (such as Babyganics foaming dish and bottle soap), and then mix these ingredients with a hand mixer. You’ll quickly have a bowlful of soft foam for a baby to play with.  You can also use shaving foam for this kind of play, but some babies don’t care for the smell. Put the baby and the foam on a towel or another soft surface for easy cleanup. This is another activity that could easily be done in the high chair. Because a lot of a baby’s entertainment comes from sensory exploration, water tables make for wonderful entertainment. A childcare center might have a professionally-made water table, but at home you can make a water table simply by putting a sturdy, shallow tray of warm water on the high chair tray.  You’ll want to make sure that the water tray isn’t likely to be pushed off the high chair tray. Try making the water more interesting by adding a few drops of food coloring. If playing with toys at the water table is more interesting than simply splashing at the water with her hands, bring in some bath toys. Never leave a baby alone when playing with water or in a bathtub, even if the water is shallow. If you’re in the kitchen, it will be easy to provide ordinary household items like pots, spoons, plastic containers, empty boxes, etc. for your baby’s entertainment. If the baby is older, he’ll be be interested in exploring the items, seeing what they sound like when they’re banged against the floor or each other. Younger babies may be more interested in learning what they smell and taste like.  You’ll want to make sure that the items are clean enough to be put into your baby’s mouth. Make sure you never give your baby anything that he can break, or which might have small parts that could present a choking hazard.

article: It’s hard to make it as a big-time film critic. Many critics work hard for years before earning any money at all. Moreover, many critics write film reviews as a hobby, simply because they love film. Film criticism takes a lot of time and effort, and a steady income is not guaranteed, so passion is key. A passion for film criticism will show through in your work. If you want to critique films, you need to know what makes a quality film. Look for critically acclaimed films across all the different genres, and watch them. Consider classic films, indie films, foreign films, short films, animated films, comedies, and dramas.  Be sure to watch as many “classic films” as you can--film critics often reference these. Search “classic films” online to find a number of lists.  Purchasing a subscription to a streaming service like Netflix is a great way to get access to a wide variety of films. Reading the work of established film critics will help you gain a better understanding of film critic writing and film as an art form. Find a few critics who you really like, and follow their work.  Form your own opinions about a given film, then read a critic’s review to see how your opinions compare with theirs.  Take note of your favorite critics’ writing style and tone, and examine how they present their ideas. How do humor and context factor in to the critique? A good understanding of filmmaking and video editing is important to being a good film critic. Making a few short films of your own, whether they are 5 minutes long or an hour long, can help inform your interpretation of others’ films.

article:
The most important step is finding and understanding your cause and knowing what ribbon matches it. Of course, if you are reading this article you probably already know what you are wearing a ribbon for. It is always good to understand the cause you represent deeply, as you may be asked about it.  Often, ribbons are worn in honor of someone you know. For instance, a relative that passed from a type of cancer. Ribbons are also worn to demonstrate solidarity with a particular group, for instance Black Lives Matter or the LGBT community. Check your sources carefully. Some organizations, such as Susan G. Komen for the Cure and Autism Speaks, are strongly disliked by the people they claim to be helping. Be careful about what type of group you are supporting. Single-color ribbons are simple enough, but ribbons with multiple colors or different designs can be more complicated. Often, a particular cause may have a specific "official" design, but you don't necessarily need to be bound by that.  You can customize a ribbon by writing the name of a person  who is meaningful to you on the ribbon's tail, or trimming in their favorite color. The "Eye" of the ribbon is also an area that people like to customize with designs or symbols. If you want to follow a particular design exactly, you'll want to seek out the website representing the cause and find their exact specifications. For smaller ribbons, especially those that will be worn, you'll want to use ribbon or fabric as your material. These materials are generally soft, wearable, and tolerate stress and weather reasonably well. If you are making a larger ribbon to be displayed on a door or in a window, you may want to consider paper or card stock. Since the ribbon won't be worn and won't be moving much, paper and card stock are both cheaper and easier to make large ribbons out of. Paper or card stock reasons are also easy to add additional colors to - just use a marker or paint.
