How to respond to children’s refusals

In the life of every parent, there comes a time when any suggestions, requests, and instructions come across an uncompromising children's “I don’t want it! I won’t do this!” Psychologists are sure that the frequency of meetings with such crises in the life of a child is largely dependent on the parents' reaction to this resistance. When the child refuses to fulfill the request, or follow the advice, the most important thing for the parent is to understand the reason for the refusal. Only by understanding the reasons, it is possible to decide how to react correctly and, ultimately, to win a pedagogical victory. Which, by the way, does not necessarily consist of insisting on one's own at all...

If you are at least 62 years old you can apply for a reverse mortgage. The question is should you do so? What is a reverse mortgage and what makes it better than a traditional mortgage are questions that must be answered before you ever consider signing a loan agreement.

The Music of COCO

The Music of COCO

Today I want to share with you some interesting facts about the music of COCO. If you haven't seen it yet, it's now in theaters and a must see movie for the entire family. Because COCO is all about music and family. Miguel is passionate about music and the filmmakers used music to give life to the entire story.    As a matter of fact, the music was talked about more early on than the actual movie itself.  That's how important it is to this movie. Check it out: They wanted a nice mix of authentic music and some original music.  They wanted the team of songwriters to be true to the traditional Mexican music but to also be creative with some new sounds. Music can really make a movie, and sort...

A Closer Look at Pepita and Dante from COCO

A Closer Look at Pepita and Dante from COCO

During my trip to San Francisco to learn about PIXAR's newest movie, COCO, I also learned about Alebrijes, which are part of the Mexican culture.  They are animals that are a mix of a bunch of animals.  In the story of COCO, we meet Pepita. She's a colorful Alebrije who is a bit of tiger, ram, eagle and lizard.  She is beautiful and is an important charactor in the movie.  She helps to guide us through the Land of the Dead. Alebrijes are beautiful in color and a bit crazy!  We had the chance to paint our own Pepita and it was a lot of fun.  I didn't do nearly as good as a job as PIXAR did in COCO, but it was fun trying. Another important animal in the movie COCO is Dante.  He is Miguel's...

Skeletons brought a whole new challenge to the table while making this film.  Here are some fun facts about the steps they had to take to make them look interesting and "real".   They had to study different types of skeletons and how they moved because they had no muscles to move the bones.  I would have never even thought about the fact that there are no muscles, which is what...
