So What is This Bakugan and How Do You Play?

So what is this Toy? Much like Pokemon, Bakugan features both a cartoon show and a competitive card game, with many accessories to accompany it. The show can be seen on Cartoon Network and features the cards and marble characters that are portrayed as beings from another dimension. Bakugan is quickly becoming the latest hit in character battle games. It has been selling quickly in toy stores across the North America, and was named one of the top toys of 2008 by some magazines. Bakugan marble-like spheres magnetically morph into powerful Bakugan warriors when they roll onto the metal Gate Cards! Use strategy to place your metal Gate Cards effectively as each card affects the battle differently. Master your precision shooting skills to roll your Bakugan into battle and win! What are the kids saying? Eight-year-old Kole Kramer and his brother, Carson, 9, have been hooked on Bakugan ever since a friend this fall showed them how a magnetic card activated a closed sphere, which opened and transformed itself into his small Bakugan Battle Brawler warrior. "We said, 'COOL!'," Carson says to his friend. "He showed us lots of wild battles. I told our mom and dad about it and when we got some I said, 'Kole, do you want to battle me?' What the parents are saying? These non-electronic toys give her kids a chance to use their imaginations and have fun together. Besides, she values the toys as incentives.

How Do You Play?

Step 1: Choose your 3 bakugan. This is probably one of the most important steps because you need to decide what bakugan you will be using the entire game. You may want to use bakugan if you have their character card or if their printed g-power is really high. Also, you may want to use bakugan who have the right g-power to work with your command cards.

Step 2: Choosing your gate cards. You shouldn't choose more then 5 gate cards because it gets confusing and it takes a long time to play the game. Now gate cards you might want to choose are character cards that show the bakugan character you are using because then on that card the printed g-power of that character is doubled. Other cards you might want to choose are cards that subtract g's from your opponent. It is always easy to fight an opponent who has low g-power. Also you want to choose cards that boost your overall g-power as well that are always good. Now if you have any command cards in which you can set a trap with you will probably want to use those but make sure to check to see exactly what they do otherwise you might lose the battle.

Step 3: Know how to calculate g-power. When I calculate g-power in a battle I always start by noting the bakugan's printed g-power. Then I add to that number any bonus they got from the gate card, and then lastly, I add any ability card boosts and then repeat the process for my opponent. Important: Once that battle is over the bakugan's g-power return to their normal printed g-power and do not stay at the power level that was gained in the battle.

Step 4: Begin the brawl. The youngest person goes first so they would start by saying field open, but this part is usually said in unison so for simulation purposes. "Field Open", in unison. Then the youngest player starts you off by setting down a gate card and shooting a bakugan. However, this part since it is the first turn is also usually done in unison. Make sure to say the names of your bakugan when they stand. "Gate card set bakugan brawl", in unison. "Haos terrorclaw stand", says haos brawler. "Darkus fear ripper stand", says darkus brawler. Now the battling really begins in the next round and the youngest person actually starts. "Gate card set, bakugan brawl haos mantris stand", said the haos brawler. Now you can have up to four players at a time in the brawl no more. In this battle, however, there will be only two brawlers. Now it is the darkus brawler's turn. "Gate card set, bakugan brawl darkus reaper stand", said the darkus brawler. Now the darkus brawler set down another gate card but didn't shoot his bakugan onto it. This move is perfectly legal but in every turn you have to shoot a bakugan unless you have no more bakugan left to shoot then you can call a stay and not do anything. Now since darkus reaper had to role somewhere let's find out the outcome: he rolled onto the haos brawler's gate card so now we are in a real battle.

Step 5: Doing battle on a character card. Now it is time to really do battle. Now that two bakugan that don't belong to you are on the same gate card there is a battle. So the owner of the gate card would say gate card open. "Gate card open", said the Haos brawler, "Character activate". The reason the haos brawler said, "character activate" is because this was Mantris's character card which means his printed g-power is doubled. But, what is its printed g-power? To solve that problem, after the gate card is open both players who have bakugan on the card say battle begin! If you had a bakupod it would say mantris starting g-power is... But, since you don't since they don't exist you have to say battle begin (in unison), bakugan's name, and their printed g-power (starting g-power). "Battle begins" both brawlers say, "Mantris starts battle with 350 gs" says haos brawler. "Reaper starts battle with 370 gs", says darkus brawler. Then whoever has the advantage gets to say advantage and then their bakugan's name. "Advantage Reaper," says darkus brawler. It is at this point that the final boost is added and the person who owns the gate card says, "Gate card boost activate" and the final g-power is added. "Gate card boost activate," says the haos brawler. This enables any character abilities to activate and the other boosts and subtractions that are listed on the left side of the gate card. Then you would list the final g-total by saying your bakugan's total gs. "Power boost recognized mantris now at 750 gs," says the Haos brawler. This is because when the character card boost was activated, mantris gained 350 gs because the printed g-power was doubled since it is mantris's character. That puts him at 700 gs. Then another 50 is added from the boosts that are on the side. "Power boost recognized reaper now at 550 gs", says the darkus brawler.

This is because reaper didn't get the boost from the character and instead just got the side boost which was 180 gs not to shabby if you ask me. Now there is one final step that can change the out come of the whole battle ABILITY CARDS!!! Ability cards are special cards that allow you to help yourself in a battle when it appears that you can't win with the gate card and bakugan alone. So if you're using an ability card you would say, "Ability card activate" and then the name of the ability card then explain what it does. "Ability card activate", Darkus Unison brawler says. Darkus Unison is an ability card that allows you to shoot another bakugan onto a gate card either from the field in your used or unused pile, but only if it is undefeated. Now, I just made that card up because I needed to show you how ability cards can change the whole battle. So now the gs of darkus fear ripper and darkus reaper are combined so then you say the following: "Darkus Fear Ripper enters battle at 320 gs" says the darkus brawler "power boost recognized total g-power at 870 gs". This puts the darkus brawler ahead by 120 gs. "Advantage Reaper and Fear Ripper" says the darkus brawler. Now the battle is over because the haos team didn't want to use any abilities so the darkus team wins and mantris is defeated and cannot be used again this brawl. Fear Ripper and Reaper can be used again. It is now the Darkus brawler's turn because he won the battle. Calculate HSP.

Step 6: Continuing the brawl. Now it is the darkus brawler's turn, since he won't say the same thing you did last time. "Gate card set, bakugan brawl darkus laser man stand". Now it's the Haos brawler's turn. "Bakugan brawl haos tuskor stand". Haos Tuskor stood on Darkus laserman's card so there is yet another battle.

Step 7: Battling on a command card. As usual the brawler who owns the card would say gate card open. "Gate card open command card activate triple battle" said the Darkus brawler. Now the reason that the darkus brawler said command card activate was because that this wasn't a character card it was a command card. A command card is a card that lets you do different things that normally you wouldn't be able to do. You say command card activate and then the name of the command card in order for it to activate you also have to explain what it does. "The triple battle gate card allows me to shoot another bakugan onto the gate card so your haos tuskor is toast!" said the darkus brawler. "Bakugan brawl, darkus reaper stand" said the darkus brawler. So now once again the haos brawler is going up against 2 bakugan on the same gate card. "Battle commence", brawlers say in unison.

"Haos tuskor starts at 330 gs" says the Haos brawler. "Darkus laserman and reaper start at 720 gs" says the darkus brawler. "Gate card boost activate" said the darkust brawler. "Power boost recognized tuskor now at 400 gs" says the Haos brawler. "Power boost recognized darkus bakugan now at 1120 gs" says the darkus brawler. Also, I forgot to mention, that when your two bakugan have the same attribute on a gate card their bonus doubles. If they are different attributes, then each Bakugan receive their own separate bonuses. Once again, the Haos brawler has failed to mach the g power of the darkus brawler and tuskor is out of the game. Since there were 3 bakugan in the battle that is 300 HSP and this time no boost from the card. The way you can tell is that the HSP points you can gain from the card are listed in the bottom right hand corner of the card. If nothing is there, there is no HSP bonus.

Step 8: The final step. Since the darkus brawler won again he gets to go first. "Gate card set, bakugan brawl darkus laserman stand", says the darkus brawler. "Call back Bakugan brawl, Haos terrorclaw stand", says the haos brawler. Now the reason that the haos brawler said, "call back" first is because terrorclaw was already on the field, so he brought him back to shoot him again. Now, terror claw stood on reapers card. This is a regular gate card brawl. "Gate card open" says the darkus brawler. "Terrorclaw enters battle at 370 gs", says the haos brawler. "Reaper enters battle with 370 gs", says the darkus brawler. "Gate card boost activate", says the darkus brawler. "Power boost recognized, terrorclaw is now at 500 gs", says the haos brawler. "Power boost recognized, reaper now at 500gs", says the darkus brawler. "Ability card activate Bright light", says the Haos brawler "bright light is an ability card that allows me to boost my haos attributive bakugan by 80 gs." "Ability card activate sword of death", says the darkus brawler. Sword of death ability allows me to decrease your bakugan by 180 gs and increase mine by the same number. "Power change recognized terrorclaw now at 400gs", says the Haos brawler. "Power change recognized reaper now at 680gs," says the darkus brawler. The darkus brawler wins and has a final score of 900 HSP while the haos brawler has zero.

Final Step: Don't stop yet. There is one more thing. Calculators, paper, and pencils are all very help full when it comes to calculating g power and hsp and recording it. I find it much simpler when you can just punch in the numbers on the calculator or on paper instead of doing it all in your head. So are you ready to heed the call to Brawl? Let the brawl begin!

After the battle is over you calculate the HSP holosector points. The way you do this is the winner adds up 100 points for each bakuan that was in the battle; in this case it is 300 points. Then you add up how many points you earned from the card sometimes you don't get card points and sometimes you do. Let's say that on the mantris card the winner gets 100 bonus HSP so that means that the darkus brawler would get 400 hsp from that battle.

Is Spanking Your Child Ever the Answer?

Wherever you turn your head, you see stressed people that are trying to do the best for their families, their children. So many responsibilities in such a difficult time, time when so much is expected from ordinary person that live in constant fear of loosing his or her job, cannot result with being always calm and patient. Kids are just kids and their job is to put you to test, to see how far they can go. Being a parent is the most difficult job on earth but spanking a child is never the answer.

If you were anything like me, you would think that the biggest problem is to give a birth to a child. But you never know until you try it, right? Giving birth is the easiest part. Problems came after that when you here your small child talking exactly as you, behaving exactly as you and you do not like it. You think it is inappropriate. Children imitate their parents and that is a fact. Parents are role models to their children. That is why being a parent is the most difficult job. You need to be in control of your emotions, behavior and everything you do most of the time, for the case of your children. If you spank your children and jell on them when your older child disciplines his younger brother or sister by spanking, then you see the real consequences of your actions. Some parents realize that they are making a big mistake after that.

You should not spank your children at all, in any circumstances. First, if we are talking about small children, they are small and do not realize what is right and what is wrong so it is just not fair. You need a lot of patience to discipline small children because they tempt their parents most of the time. But if you are determined to do so without spanking, later when they get older you will have children that are well behaved. They will develop methods to control their anger for the right reasons and not for the reason of being afraid. Parents too, will develop skills to talk to the child and solve the tantrum problems without spanking, so later on they will have a good communication between them and that will make easier those teenage years to both sides.

Every person should try to live by this simple rule: don't do things to others that you would not like someone to do to you. If you do not like to be spanked when you do something wrong, than do not do that to your child even if they are small and do not know anything. Moreover, know this, if you have spanked your child ones or twice, be sure that they will remember it forever, even if you are patient most of the time and show them lots of love and gentleness.

Be aware that you are raising them to be the parents one day and that they will discipline their children the only way they know. Love your children, be patient with them and do not spank them ever. Also, do not torture yourself with being perfect parent because that does not exist. Loosing your temper, raising your voice will just show your children that you are a human. You can always talk to them about those things but spanking is just harmful to children and does not give any results.

Nothing was done with this little train until 1979 when a British writer named Britt Allcroft read one of the books. She took her savings and mortgaged her home to bring this character to life on 35 mm film. The debut was in 1984 on the ITV network in the UK. The first story teller of this series was Ringo Starr for the first 26 stories. Other story tellers of the show after that first series also included Michael Angelis, George Carlin, and Alec Baldwin.

Since the beginning the name has been shortened to Thomas and Friends. The TV series ran from 1984 to 2003 with 182 different episodes. There have also been three feature films starring Thomas which are "Thomas and the Magic Railroad", "The Great Discovery", and "Hero of the Rails".

Because of the popularity of this little train, there are 24 different trains that can be purchased. There are some like the original that are powered by a child pushing the wooden engine, and others that are mechanized and battery powered. The prices start at just $19.99 for a simple oval track with Thomas and one car. For $143.99, your little engineer can recreate the story line of "The Great Discovery". This is a 35 piece set that includes 2 talking railway engines and many other special features.

These have come a long way from the original Thomas Train Set that was made from a broomstick by the creator Rev. W. V. Awdry for his son Christopher.

Social Skills and Problem Solving: A Coaching Method for Guiding Your Kids to Solve Problems Wisely

When you want your kids to make better decisions, and especially teens and tweens, they are not going to change until they see that what they are currently doing is not helping them. To help them refashion their vision, you can be the catalyst without being the bad guy.

Use the questions that follow to help your kids grapple with issues important to their lives-getting along with friends, getting homework done or making smart choices in the face of peer pressure. Kids have a lot of wisdom we don't always see. By posing questions, you guide them to manage their lives without telling them what to do.

Start as young and early as you feel your children are able to handle the thinking process behind these questions. You can adjust language and details for age and developmental stage.

First, Some Dos and Don'ts:

Do not choose topics for these questions that may require you to over rule the decision your child comes up with.

Do: Stay in the present. Your kids know the history very well and getting into past behaviors will just turn them off. You want the focus to stay on growth and future behaviors.

Do not be pushy about getting to the answers-just let them live for a while with the question.

Do: Stay neutral. No judgments. No opinion. No lectures. And no rubbing it in later if they falter. Give them space, time to practice, and to learn what to do with success and failure.

Do not overload. Just one question can be a big bite for your child to chew on for a while.

Do: Introduce the questions gently. You know your child and how much and how receptive he or she is likely to be with your new strategy. Presentation can mean everything here!

Problem Solving Coaching Questions

1. Can you accept the results or consequences of the behavior you are choosing now?

2. Are you thinking short term or long term? Which do you think is the best way to go with this?

3. Can you accept responsibility for whatever happens as a result of your choices?

4. Do you see that behavior is a choice?

5. What do you want one year from now? What do you want one month from now?

6. Is it reasonable to believe what you are currently doing will get you the best thing in the long run?

7. What are you doing now that's not working?

8. What would you like to do differently in the future?

9. Is what you are doing right now helping you with what you really really want for yourself?

10. What makes you feel proud of yourself?

Now parents, step aside and let your children and these questions take their course. If your kids are receptive to giving you feedback that is great. But you may not need to hear any words; the resulting behavior change will speak to you.

Using Puppets For Self Expression

Puppets are one of those wonderful inventions that have been around for aeons but continue to delight and engage kids centuries later.

Who would think that putting a couple of buttons on a funny sock, sticking it on your hands and making funny noises could be so fun. But kids love puppets. They love watching puppets and they love playing with puppets.

The success of Children's Television Workshop has much to do with the entertaining nature of its educational content but also its engaging characters, most of which are performed by people you never see.

I remember watching an interview with Kevin Clash, the man behind the voice and performance of Sesame Street's beloved Elmo. He noted that when kids come behind the scenes of Sesame Street, they don't notice the puppeteers manipulating the Sesame Street character. Indeed most kids just think that the humans performing the puppets are simply there to carry their "friends" around.

Kids love performing puppets too, and there is something magic, even for the shyest child, to be able to put an element of their personality into another character, particularly one whose movements can be controlled intimately by the child.

Puppets like those put out by Folkmanis are full of character and are just waiting for a child to impart their own sense of personality and they become fully alive creatures. Once people start interacting with the puppet rather than the child, the concept of the puppet being a separate personality can start to kick in.

Once this happens the child may then feel free to express things they would not have felt uncomfortable voicing themselves. Puppets (and masks) have been used in many situations to help kids relate to the emotions they feel but cannot fully understand.

Not only that but there's just something very appealing (for adults and kids)about speaking in a funny voice.

Are Barbie Dolls Still Collectible?

Since bursting onto the toy market in a black and white swimsuit on March 9 1959, Barbie has certainly made her mark and is undoubtedly queen amongst dolls even after more than forty years of life.

Created by Ruth Handler and marketed by the Mattel toy company, Barbie has successfully moved with the times for almost five decades adopting changing fashions to maintain her place as the top toy doll brand. From nurse and olympic Barbie to president and married Barbie, she has an impressive resume with more than eighty careers and countless costume changes along the way.

As the American dream personified, Barbie has led a very privileged life that most celebrities would envy even today. With a wardrobe to die for, a fleet of cars and even a bespoke swimming pool just some of the trappings of world wide domination and fame. But many collectors are concerned that her days as queen of dolls may be about to end. In 2007, Barbie is still a big fish in a growing pond but now faces stiff competition from new, fresh and energetic doll brands like Bratz which have successfully diversified into multimedia and continue to sell well.

And it appears that Barbie is responding to her competitors with smaller versions of the traditional doll called Barbie Mini Kingdom. At just 6 inches tall this gentle change of direction may be the tip of the iceberg as Mattel moves to strengthen it's position.

As she approaches her 50th birthday, Barbie remains an international phenomenon sold in over 40 countries and a sought after collectors item. As you might expect, Barbie is the best selling doll on Ebay with some rare early examples fetching as much as $10,000. So, for now, Barbie is certainly worthy of a place in any toy collectors catalog, but only time will tell if Barbie dolls can continue to move with the times and maintain their appeal with young girl's on into the 21st century. Even so, I wouldn't like to bet against a Barbie doll being at the top of many Christmas lists in twenty years time.

Scrimshaw is a traditional American art form that is etchings or carvings on bone, tusks, or animal teeth. Elephant tusks, whale teeth, and even the preserved tusks of woolly mammoths are the most common materials used for Scrimshaw. Many Scrimshaw pieces have maritime carvings and others feature animals.

Scrimshaw started as a seaman's art and the first etchings were done on whale teeth, which were readily available to sailors. They became very beautiful and valuable items and were often used to barter and as currency. In modern times Scrimshaw has expanded to other materials such as bone, antlers, tusks, and ivory. The art of Scrimshaw is very intricate and it takes a skilled artisan to create these beautiful works of art. The etchings are carefully carved and include many details of the subject they portray. Sometimes a Scrimshaw etching is left plain, and other times it is colored with high quality ink to further accentuate the details.
