Early Childhood Development Center
Why do we need early development? Let me answer this question personally, and although “why?” less interesting than “how?”, it still requires attention.
A thousand years ago, parents forced their children (primarily boys) to hold a stick between their legs. Then the stone replaced the stick. This was done to strengthen the internal muscles of the thigh, it is these muscles that allow the rider to stay firmly in the saddle, and if they knock him out of the saddle, this is certain death. Parents taught their children to survive, and that’s okay.
It is not normal to leave children alone, motivating this inaction with the phrase: “…do not deprive a child of childhood…”, it is not normal to let your child into the world of the unprepared, and although the issue of survival is less acute, you must agree that life is different for everyone. And I think no one will argue that there are more and more requirements for intellectual development every year. Thirty years ago, I wrote the first work on the topic of early childhood development, rummaged through a bunch of literature … figures, facts, scientific works, awards for these works, all this left no doubt about the expediency of early development. So where do the authors of articles under the general title: “Leave the child alone” draw inspiration from? Sometimes it seems to me that someone is interested in the intellectual degradation of our children.
We must admit that life is a constant competition and how can we help our children to be leaders? Leave a rich legacy? To provide their work for their carefree life? Few consider unearned luxury a boon for children. A large inheritance is more likely to harm than to benefit. But, without taking away motivation, giving maximum opportunities for self-realization is the best gift for children. It is for such a gift that early development is necessary, and the sooner the better.
We will give our children the opportunity to study at any university in the world.
We want our children to be accepted as equals in any society.
We want happiness for our children and we see it in the opportunity to find ourselves anywhere in the world, as we remove the barriers of language and mentality.
We want to enrich our children with knowledge without killing their innate individuality, to preserve divergent thinking, creative activity, and creativity.
We want to achieve discipline of the mind and not fear, not to kill the desire to learn, the result is not for the test, but as a stepping stone for personal growth.
We want to give our children the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the world, through a deep understanding of this beauty, when there is no need for happiness stimulants.
All this gives early development and as we understand it. The way to achieve the result may be different. Our program does not shine with originality, we just assume real work under every word, because we do this for our children. Our results confirm this. Below there is a lot of information that you can find not only here, it is publicly available and known to everyone. Anyone who is interested in the happiness of their children can choose us or another school of early development, but to do nothing is to deprive their child of perspective. We only offer our own path, it is certainly not the only one, but we have chosen this one for our children. If you agree with us, welcome to MultiLingua Kindergarten.
Every child is different. He grows at his own pace, develops his own abilities gradually, step by step… Each child develops this or that function in his own way. Nobody needs to prove it. But, of course, there are age norms: how and when a child should start to sit, stand, walk, run, draw, read, write … All these frameworks help teachers and parents to understand, no later than what period this or that function should develop, before How long will this be the norm? If one or another function is not formed by the desired age, it is customary to talk about developmental delay. This, as a rule, happens when the baby is seriously ill or when he lacks the attention of adults, when no one is doing anything with the baby.
But as soon as you start paying at least a little attention to a child, play with him, tell him something, show him pictures, read books, he begins to develop, grow wiser, grow up, become more mature before your eyes. Such a kid is interested in everything, he asks to work with him again and again.
Well, if you do not just play and read, but apply any of the known methods of early development, teach the child something (of course, through the game, and not by sitting at a desk), then the baby begins to form even faster, more intensively. His speech is strikingly different from the speech of his peers (and from the speech of himself, which was quite recently). He begins to amaze his parents with his mind, memory, ingenuity, and creative streak.
The baby begins to develop earlier than it could if no one did anything with him, and not earlier than the neighbor’s boy or cousin. This can be called early child development.
Many authors (Doman, Suzuki, Lupan, Zaitsev, Nikitin, Tropp) insist that such a development is not early, but just timely, that traditional pedagogical science, based on the experience of past centuries, lags behind modern methods, that human potential is much richer than is commonly believed so far. (Although we know that generally accepted norms have changed a lot over the past 20-30 years: who will be surprised by a five-year-old who reads now? And before, almost all children came to school not reading.)
The only thing is that the classical teachers lag behind the innovators in the timing of the start of education – and children begin to learn just at the time when the growth of the brain is already completed (about 7 years). In this case, the child really cannot afford the load that is offered to him at school. He hardly learns to count, read, it is difficult for him to master writing. In the future, this creates difficulties in the study of all school disciplines.
Proceeding from this, we can give a second definition of the term “early development” – the intensive development of the child’s abilities from 0 to 6-7 years. Naturally, at this age, this is completely incompatible with traditional, “garden-school” ways of teaching. This is something completely different, for this there is a school for early child development.
This is a specially created environment in which the baby lives, filled with interesting and unusual objects for looking at and exploring with all the senses.
These are the most diverse toys that give a lot of tactile, visual, sound, olfactory sensations.
This is physical activity supported by a specially equipped room, which gives the child the opportunity to better and earlier master his body, to study it well, to be more dexterous, stronger, stronger, feel safer.
These are games made by teachers specifically for a particular child, based on his interests and age capabilities.
These are books written for him in large understandable letters, with large pictures, with pages that even the smallest toddler cannot spoil.
These are blocks with letters (or, even better, with folds), which the kid just plays with the teacher.
These are constant walks, excursions, conversations, reading books and much, much more.
Early development is the active position of an adult in relation to a child in the first years of life.

FAQs
AMERICA’S MOST ACCREDITED
We’re so proud!
Nationally only 10% of daycares are accredited – nearly 100% of our learning centers are. That’s a big difference,
and that means KinderCare kids are getting the very best. Here’s why.
SCHOOL-READY
What Learning Looks Like
Our talented early-childhood teachers set kids down the path toward becoming lifelong learners in a positive, safe, and nurturing environment.
Stafford KinderCare Programs
Infant Programs (6 weeks–1 year)
Leaving your baby in someone else’s care is a big step. Everyone at our
centers—most importantly, our naturally gifted infant teachers—will work with
you to make sure the transition goes smoothly. When you step into our infant
classroom, you’ll see how much we want your infant to feel safe, loved, and
ready to explore their world.
Toddler Programs (1–2 Years)
Everything in our toddler classroom is designed for little explorers. That’s
because a lot is going on at this age. When your child is wandering all over the
place, that means they’re learning and discovering new things every day. We’ll
help them explore their interests (and find new ones!) as they play and learn.
Discovery Preschool Programs (2–3 Years)
This age is filled with so much wonder and curiosity. That’s why we offer a ton
of books and toys and bring artwork down to kids eye level. Children in
discovery preschool also begin to learn how we all work together in a
classroom. Simple math and science, pretend play, and group play help them
get used to a more structured school setting.
Preschool Programs (3–4 Years)
This age is all about expression, when kids really start to form their own ideas
about what they want to play and how they want to create. Every day in our
preschool classroom, your child will explore science experiments, create
artwork, and play pretend—all the skills needed for their big next step:
kindergarten!
Prekindergarten Programs (4–5 Years)
When you walk into one of our pre-K classrooms, you’ll see artwork and
writing displayed around the room. Labels are everywhere to help kids connect
letters with words. You’ll also see pictures on the walls that reflect the families
in our community. Your child will also deepen their knowledge in language,
math, science, Spanish, and social skills.
Before- and After-School Programs (5–12 Years)
You can count on us to provide reliable care for your school-ager while you’re
at work, with safe transportation from our center to your child’s school and
back! Whether your child wants to start a drama club, build a volcano, or
create a comic book, they will have a place to follow their dreams. Your child
will start and end the day with a whole lot of fun!
School Break Programs (preschool, prekindergarten, and school-age)
Winter break, spring break, summer break—when school’s out (but you still need to work), you
can count on KinderCare to provide a safe and supportive learning environment that’s focused
on fun. We welcome children ages 5–12 during school break times and make sure they have a
sensational, screen-free experience they won’t forget.
Participating Child Care Aware Center
KinderCare partners with Child Care Aware® of America to offer fee assistance for
Active Duty military families and flexible support to fit their needs when care at a Child
Development Center on the installation is not available.
Learning Adventures – Enrichment Program
Cooking Academy™ (3 – 12 Years)
In Cooking Academy, kids learn new recipes from cultures around the world and
develop a healthy relationship with food. They’ll whip up everything from Southwest
rainbow lettuce wraps to pumpkin muffins, building their skills in STEM, communication,
and more along the way. And yes—little chefs get to eat their culinary creations!
Phonics Adventures® (2 – 4 Years)
Learning how to read is a whole lot of fun at KinderCare! We help kids grow to love
books and words (and get ready for kindergarten) in our Phonics Adventures program.
From discovering the basics of vowels to practicing poetry, kids learn all about letters
and sounds in small-group lessons made just for their age group. (Bonus: Kids who
attend our phonics program are more prepared than their peers for school—and we
have the data to prove it.)
STEM Innovators (3-8 Years)
You’ve probably heard a lot about how important STEM education is for your child, but
what does that really mean? Our STEM Innovators program takes kids’ natural ability to
make sense of the world and applies it to robotics, chemistry, coding, geology, and
more. While your child experiments, they’ll discover how to use technology to do
amazing things!
Our Teachers
We’re the only company in early childhood education to select teachers based on natural talent. Being a great educator isn’t enough though.
KinderCare teachers are also amazing listeners, nurturers, boo-boo fixers, and smile-makers. Put more simply,
we love our teachers and your child will, too.
Meet just a few of our amazing KinderCare teachers!
A KINDERCARE TEACHER WITH
An Artist’s Heart
“My classroom is full of art!” says Mary Annthipie-Bane, an award-winning early childhood educator at KinderCare. Art and creative expression, she says, help children discover who they really are.
We put our best-in-class teachers in a best-in-class workplace. We’re so proud to have been named one of Gallup’s 37 winners of the Great Workplace Award.
When you put great teachers in an engaging center, your children will experience
an amazing place to learn and grow.
Family Stories
Don’t take our word for it. Hear what our families have to say about our amazing center!
My daughter has been attending KinderCare for about two years now. The curriculum has been great and exceeded my expectations. She comes home every day telling me stories about how much fun she had and what she is learning. The teachers have all been phenomenal! They work with not only my daughter, but myself to make sure we’re both comfortable. I have loved our time at KinderCare.
E. Family – KinderCare Parent
The care my family and I receive at KinderCare Learning Center is wonderful; I truly appreciate how attentive the staff is to the needs of my family. My son has attended the center for a year now. He was in the Preschool room and the program was so great that he was advanced going into Kindergarten. I would recommend KinderCare to any and all families looking for care for their children.
S. Family – KinderCare Parent
My husband and I had our first child, Olivia, last October and one of the most difficult decisions we’ve made thus far as new parents was trying to find the best daycare for Olivia. We were worried about finding the right fit – a daycare that would provide genuine loving care to our daughter in our absence while also helping her grow developmentally during such an important time of her life. We did our research and visited different centers to be sure we were doing our due diligence. When we came to the Stafford Kindercare, we both felt immediately the warmth and passion from the staff about their work which took a little of the edge off of our anxiety about leaving our daughter with “strangers”. Our daughter is now 9 months old and has been with her “ladies” in the infant room for 6 months. She has received nothing but the best of care from all of the staff members. From the moment she started smiling, my husband and I always noted that she offers a big smile to her care providers when we drop her off in the morning. When we pick her up in the afternoon, she is always clean, dry, well fed, and happy. Her care providers have helped her through some important developmental milestones, including eating more solid foods, clapping, waving, and now crawling and pulling up. The ladies in the center have won our hearts with the excellent and nurturing care they provide our precious daughter.
C. Family – KinderCare Parent
I want to thank you all for your hard work and dedication to KinderCare. My 2 girls have loved the enviroment and learning experiences while at your center. The teachers have been wonderful and always shown dedication and love towards both of them as well as all the children in their care.
F. Family – KinderCare Parent
As a Single Parent, I thank the center Teachers and Staff for their hardwork and care they have given my daughter. during her time at this location. Continue your excellent service and program for others to hopefully benefit from more than we have thus far.
G.
Family – KinderCare Parent
I transitioned my son from an in-home daycare to KinderCare at 10 months old. I was very nervous about the transition but the staff at KinderCare made it an easy transition and quickly made me feel very comfortable. All the teachers in the infant and toddler room are so caring and I truly know they have my son’s best interests at heart. Not only are his needs being met, but he comes home learning new things every day. I especially enjoy getting sent home pictures of craft time and the art projects he has completed. It’s always a good sign when your toddler wants to stay at daycare and play longer when you go to pick him up at the end of the day. I would recommend KinderCare to anyone looking for good care in Stafford.

Sometimes, no matter how much straining and pushing there is, the necessary result isn’t happening! Just as with the condition in humans, cat constipation is rather common and diet plays an important role. “The root cause of cat constipation is often improper nutrition,” points out Dr. Kim Bloomer, an animal naturopath and author of the site Aspenbloom Pet Care.
The term “constipated” means that the cat has infrequent bowel movements or ones that are difficult to pass. It may be caused by a diet too low in fiber, a lack of clean, fresh water or hairballs or other small items in your cat’s digestive tract. “The cat could also be suffering from a blockage present from birth or that developed due to injury or illness or a myriad of internal imbalances,” notes veterinarian Dr. Jane Brunt, executive director of the CATalyst Council and past president of the American Association of Feline Practitioners.
Other reasons that prevent a cat from pooping might be “painful lesions, such as strictures, masses or perianal disease,” says Anthea Appel, a New York City-based naturopathic/homeopathic animal consultant.
In general, elderly cats suffer this ailment more often than kittens, but a cat of any age or breed that eats a low-fiber diet or doesn’t drink enough water can develop it. For prevention, pet owners should be in close contact with their vets about the best diet for their cats.
Strategies to try to help a constipated cat
Increase water intake
Ensure that your cat always has access to fresh water, as dehydration is big cause of constipation.
Regularly brush your cat
Most cats groom themselves rather well, but lending a helping hand can curb hairballs and lessen the chance of constipation. Excess fur in your cat’s GI tract can cause this ailment, so try brushing your pet a few minutes a day or bringing them to the groomer if you don’t have the time.
Encourage exercise
A lack of movement means the muscles aren’t working in your cat’s colon and this can worsen constipation. To fix it, get your cat moving by offering cat toys and encouraging them to jump, roll and chase things around the house.
Natural remedies for cat constipation
Help your feline ease elimination woes with these six natural remedies, but make sure to talk with your vet before introducing any new foods into their diet. Ask your cat’s doctor about appropriate additions and amounts.
1. Fiber-rich foods
For cats, fiber is very important and this substance is often lacking in domestic cat diets. Some to try are bran cereal or an over-the-counter product like psyllium (in stores, this is marketed as Metamucil). Adding a bit to your pet’s food each day can help regulate their bowel movements. Try this after talking to your vet about your pet’s constipation.
2. Pumpkin
A teaspoon of canned, pureed pumpkin once or twice a day may also help add the fiber your pet needs to go again. You can add this to your pet’s diet any time but especially if you notice that your cat is having difficulty with elimination.
3. Ginger
Consider ginger as an herbal remedy, says Appel. Check with your doctor about giving it in small amounts (about 1/4 teaspoon) for a short duration. Ginger can be mixed into your pet’s food once a day to help set their digestive tract back in motion if you notice they seem stopped up.
4. Licorice
Like ginger, this aromatic root has natural laxative properties. One dose (usually 2 ml, depending on the preparation and your cat’s weight) can be given in the evening for overnight relief.
5. Aloe vera juice
In small doses (about 1/2 teaspoon), aloe juice can help uncomplicated constipation, says Appel. But be careful, as giving too much may cause diarrhea in some animals. Talk to your vet about this before you try it.
6. Canned food
Nix the dry food. Hard kibble is moisture free, which can be a problem for your feline friend. (Too little water can cause constipation). To remedy this situation, try to wean your pet from dry food and feed him only the canned variety. Be patient, as the transition to a new kind of food can take a few weeks.
Peek in on your cat using the litter box and make a note of which of these remedies seems to help.
Can Cats Eat Pumpkin? | PetMD
Has your kitty ever “helped” you make a pumpkin pie and taken a taste? Or how about “sharing” your pumpkin spice latte?
Pet parents often ask if it’s safe for their cat to eat pumpkin. Here’s what you need to know about sharing this seasonal squash with your cat, from potential benefits to how to feed it safely.
Is Pumpkin Good for Cats?
Plain 100% pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling) is safe for cats and can even be useful as a treatment for gastrointestinal issues. It contains several healthy ingredients, such as potassium; phosphorous; calcium; vitamins A, C, and K; and lots of fiber.
Keep in mind, however, that cats are obligate carnivores. This means that their systems are designed to process meats, so everything that isn’t a meat product, such as pumpkin, should be fed sparingly.
You may sometimes see pumpkin added as an ingredient in commercial cat foods, and this is usually done for the fiber content the pumpkin adds to the diet. Although there are other healthy nutrients in pumpkin, they’re usually also found in other components of the food that are easier for them to digest.
Can a Cat Eat Pumpkin Seeds?
Although pumpkin seeds are not toxic to cats, they can become a choking hazard, especially when eaten quickly. If your cat eats too many, it could result in an intestinal obstruction.
If you do give your cat pumpkin seeds, they are best fed in small quantities with you close by. Do not add any salt or spices or cook or roast them in oil, which markedly increases the fat content.
It is fine to use seeds that are either in the shell or with the shell removed, but mashing or crushing the seeds is safest. They can then be sprinkled on top of canned cat food for your cat to enjoy.
Is Pumpkin Good for Constipated Cats?
Perhaps the most common reason veterinarians recommend pumpkin is for constipated cats. The water content combined with the fiber can often help ease constipation. Many cats will respond to 2-4 teaspoons of canned pumpkin added to canned cat food if they have a mild case of constipation.
Canned food is recommended for constipated kitties, as it adds more water into their system. This is augmented by the water and the fiber in the canned pumpkin. Many veterinarians will use the addition of canned pumpkin as part of the cornerstone treatment for constipation.
Is Pumpkin Good for Cats With Diarrhea?
Canned pumpkin serves double duty—it is sometimes used to treat cats with diarrhea as well as constipated cats! The fiber in the pumpkin can add bulk to the stool, which helps to relieve the loose stools of diarrhea. However, if you give your cat too much canned pumpkin, it will usually result in diarrhea.
If your kitty has diarrhea, consult your veterinarian before giving pumpkin. Most cases of diarrhea actually have a medical cause, and those are easiest to diagnose in the earlier stages. You don’t want to treat the symptom and not investigate the cause.
After checking a stool sample and perhaps doing other tests, your veterinarian may recommend pumpkin as part of the treatment plan. Somewhere between 1-4 teaspoons of canned pumpkin will usually be recommended for diarrhea, depending on the severity of the symptoms, age and weight of your cat, and other factors your veterinarian might note. This is likely safe for both young and old cats that are otherwise healthy.
Can Cats Eat Pumpkin Pie?
Pumpkin pie and canned pumpkin pie filling both contain many spices, which are likely not healthy for your cat. Some of these spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and allspice, can be considered mildly toxic and result in gastrointestinal upset.
A small lick of pumpkin pie filling will likely cause no harm, but if your cat eats more than this, call your veterinarian to determine if any additional action is needed.
How to Feed Your Cat Pumpkin Safely
If your kitty likes pumpkin and you would like to share, the best option is a small amount of cooked, plain pumpkin with no spices added. While it is sometimes best to cook your own so you know exactly what’s in it, canned or pureed pumpkin is also safe as long as no other ingredients have been added.
It is safe to use either pie pumpkins or carving pumpkins, although most people think that pie pumpkins taste better. Who knows what cat taste-testers think? The canned pumpkin you get in the grocery store comes from pie pumpkins.
Some cats will eat pumpkin on its own, while others prefer to have it stirred into a small amount of canned cat food—about 2-3 tablespoons. However your cat likes it, canned pumpkin can be a very valuable addition to your cat’s diet if they have gastrointestinal problems, especially mild chronic constipation.

Constipation in a cat: how to deal with the problem?
Such a nuisance as constipation occurs not only in humans, but also in cats. And cats are even more prone to constipation. Many owners believe that when a cat goes to the toilet for the most part every 4 days, this is normal. But they are wrong. In the meantime, it is not so difficult to establish the work of the pet’s intestines.

How does constipation manifest in a cat?
The frequency of stools depends on the type of diet. On feed, cats go to the toilet 1-2 times a day, because. There is a lot of vegetable matter and fiber. On a natural diet, stools are less frequent (ideally once every 1-2 days), because natural food is absorbed by almost 100%, and there is not as much fiber in it as in industrial feeds (meat is the basis of the diet). A valid option is 1 time in 3 days, although you should try to adjust the stool so that it is more often.
So. The first sign of constipation is that the cat rarely goes to the toilet. If there was no stool for three days or more, you need to take action.
From the outside, a pooping cat should not look too tense. If he sits in the toilet for a long time and pushes, this is the second sign of constipation.
The third symptom is too hard feces. You need to check its consistency. Normal feces are not pea-like, like those of a goat, but consist of one or more oblong-shaped sausages, formed so as not to stick to the buttocks. Color – from light brown (but not yellow) to dark brown (but not black). Impurities of pus and blood are not allowed.
Another sign of constipation is blood in the anus after a bowel movement.
The Bristol Stool Scale is a medical assessment classification of the shape and consistency of human feces, but is also applicable to cats. Types 1 and 2 are constipation, types 3 and 4 are normal, types 6 and 7 are diarrhea.
Why does a cat get constipated?
The most common cause of constipation in cats is malnutrition. Carnivores love meat and don’t really like the vegetables needed for a good stool. If the cat does not have enough meat, it will be fatal, because. it should form the basis of the caudate menu: it is from meat that the animal receives most of the nutrients. Vegetarian cats are a real phenomenon, but they do not live long and all have congenital anomalies of the gastrointestinal tract. On the other hand, without the right amount of fiber found in vegetables and bones, the feces of constipated cats will be too steep and will not be able to move through the intestines well.
Stress can also cause constipation. This is especially true for small kittens who have just moved to a new home. This is due, firstly, to a change in diet and weaning from milk, which, as you know, relaxes the stomach. Secondly, with the stress of the fact that the kitten was taken away from the mother by unknown people and brought to no one knows where. In such a situation, the kittens are worried, and therefore they may not go to the toilet on nervous grounds for up to 3-4 days. If there is no chair after three days, urgent measures must be taken, which will be described below.
Elena, Scottish Straight owner: “When we took our Masik away from his first parents, he didn’t go to the toilet for several days. Constipation in our Scottish kitten lasted for 4 whole days, until he still did not go away. There were no other health problems. After that, he just started going to the toilet normally.”
Another cause of constipation is the blockage of the intestines by hairballs. Fluffy cats are prone to this. To prevent the situation, you need to start a lawn with grass such as oats and millet, so that the cat pinches it and removes the hair with the help of mechanical irritation of the intestines. Also, during the molting period, you should periodically drink courses of malt pastes. And the furry needs to be combed out correctly and thoroughly so that as little hair as possible gets into the food tract.
Sometimes constipation is a symptom of a more serious condition, such as a tumor in the anus, a hernia in the perineum, a scar in the anus, an abscess or cyst, an enlarged prostate, neurological disorders, a malformation of the colon, and diseases of the anal glands. That is, the reason may lie so deep that you yourself will not figure it out. If all attempts to adjust the diet have not yielded results, you should contact your veterinarian.
Physical inactivity also contributes to the problem of hard stools. You need to make sure that the animal moves more. Buy him “running” toys, a climbing complex, or a special spinning wheel for cats. In the end, play and run with the cat yourself – it will be useful for you too.
Small-drinking cats are also prone to constipation. Water helps soften and move the stool. If your cat does not drink enough, you need to provoke him to the opposite. In particular, it is important where the water bowl is located: if it is too close to food or to the tray, then the cat refuses to drink because of this. An ancient feline instinct tells you to drink away from dirty places. In addition, cats do not like standing water, because. it can be musty, and have a passion for running water: buy a special fountain for small predators.
Elderly cats with slow metabolism and poor intestinal motility are also prone to constipation. They will need dietary adjustments and special food supplements, including probiotics and prebiotics. By the way, the problem with insufficiency of intestinal microflora and enzyme deficiency occurs not only in old cats.
The right diet for a good toilet
The diet of a cat suffering from constipation should contain both meat and fiber, which is found in vegetables and the meat and bone component of the menu. Regularly give meat not separately, but together with vegetables and (or) as an option – bran. The meat should not be fatty, preferably raw, frozen before that in the freezer for at least 3 days. The approximate ratio of meat and vegetables in one meal is 90-95% by 5-10%. If the cat still finds it difficult to go to the toilet, you can slightly increase the percentage of vegetables and see how the stomach reacts. If you overdo it, the stool will become too soft, too frequent, or even vomiting may occur. After a few experiments, you will understand what ratio your cat needs, because. in this matter, everything is individual.
Also good for weakening the liver and spleen (but their share should not exceed 5% of the diet). Read more about proper nutrition in the article “What to feed a cat.” In addition, more fatty foods weaken. Sometimes constipation is an indicator of insufficient fat content in the diet.

To prevent digestive problems, do not give your cat foods containing gluten. These are wheat, oats, rye and barley. Many people and cats suffer from gluten intolerance. Manufacturers are even offering foods that do not contain it. Constipation can be a sign of intolerance to this substance, but it is very difficult to make a laboratory-confirmed diagnosis. So just eliminate gluten from your diet. The effect will not be noticeable immediately, but after a couple of weeks, when traces of gluten are removed from the body. But sometimes it takes more time.
How can I solve the problem immediately?
If the cat does not go to the toilet for more than 3 days, you need to take action. Here are some options.
Vegetable oil
The weakest, but also the most loyal remedy for constipation is vegetable oil. Preferably not sunflower, but olive, hemp, flaxseed or any other useful (sunflower is harmful for both cats and people, especially refined). Cats are usually ready to lick the oil off their hands. Or add to food. After a few hours, the pet can hardly, but still go to the toilet. However, this method cannot be used every day.
Vaseline
Vaseline breaks constipation well. It is not absorbed in the intestines, but passes through, removing feces with it.
To give a cat Vaseline, draw it into a syringe without a needle, then open the mouth and pour the Vaseline onto the root of the tongue. Then we close the mouth so that the cat swallows.
Usually, 1 cube of vaseline is given per 1 kg of a cat’s weight. Do not give Vaseline immediately after a meal, wait a couple of hours. If the procedure after half a day did not give a result, you need to repeat it again.
By the way, if you have given your cat another laxative and are expecting to go to the bathroom, you can apply Vaseline to a Q-tip and lubricate the inside of the anus by pushing the Q-tip down a little. This will facilitate the passage of feces and prevent injury during bowel movements. Only when you lubricate, do not put the cat’s anus right next to your face: if the laxative works at the moment of irritation of the anus, you will not be happy.
Condensed milk
Condensed milk has a laxative effect. In addition, cats usually love him, that is, you won’t have to force him to eat this product. Just give a little, within 1 teaspoon, because. condensed milk is sweet, and sweets are not allowed for cats because of the risk of developing diabetes.
Pharmacy laxative
Cat and human laxatives such as Lactusan and Dufalac are used for cat and human laxatives. They act within a few hours after ingestion. Drugs can be injected through a syringe without a needle into the mouth, 0.5-2 cubes at a time, depending on the size of the animal.
Micro enema
Attention! An enema can be harmful if there is a blockage of the intestine, and not a banal constipation!
Cats with constipation may be given a microclyster. This refers to small rubber enemas, which are sold in human pharmacies. But it is better to buy a ready-made cat enema, which already has a special drug. This is sodium dioctyl sulfocyanate with glycerin. Sodium dioctyl sulfocyanate draws water from the body into hardened feces, after which they pass through the glycerin-lubricated intestine. Please note that such an enema leads to a slight dehydration of the body: dioctyl draws out liquid, so you need to make sure that the cat drinks water on the day of the procedure.
Before the procedure, call a mate or wrap the cat in a towel so that it does not run away. Put on disposable gloves. It is better to do everything in a bathroom covered with newspapers. Place a cat litter box next to it. Remember: the reaction can be instantaneous, so it’s better to wear clothes that you don’t mind throwing away.
Raise the pet’s tail and very gently insert the oiled or vaseline-lubricated enema tip into the anus 2 cm deep or until the enema tip rests on the feces. If you buy a ready-made cat enema, then its tip will already be lubricated with a sliding substance.
If you have a ready-made cat enema, follow the directions on the package for the amount to be administered. If the enema is homemade, inject somewhere between 50-75 ml of water, but slowly so as not to hurt the cat. When the water has entered, take out the enema.
Then massage your pet’s stomach, feeling for hardened excrement. Do this carefully, remembering that the animal can go to the toilet right now. In addition, inaccurate movements, you risk hurting and damaging the intestines.
Your pet should have a bowel movement within 3 hours of the procedure. If this does not happen, then the problem is more serious than you thought, and there is already a blockage in the intestine. Go to the veterinarian immediately to have the problem solved by a qualified specialist.
Operation
In some situations, when the problem is advanced and intestinal blockage is observed (for example, the cat ate boiled bones or ate too much raw, or even swallowed something inedible), laxatives not only will not help, but are also contraindicated. In this case, it is better to immediately contact a veterinarian who will probe the intestines and take an x-ray, after which he will decide what to do next. The most extreme measure is an operation: it is needed if what clogged the intestines, most likely, will no longer come out on its own.

Symptoms and Home Treatments
Find out what to do if your cat is constipated, how to treat and prevent your cat from becoming constipated in the future.
What is constipation
Constipation is a delay in stool in a pet, which gives him pain. Normal bowel movements in cats occur every day or every other day.
In constipation, feces accumulate in the large intestine, it hardens, does not come out and poisons the pet’s body with decay products. If constipation occurs regularly, the animal has problems with internal organs, skin and coat.
Possible causes of constipation in a cat
When constipation occurs, the intestinal muscles relax and the passage of stool slows down or there are obstacles in the path of stool.
Constipation occurs for various reasons:
Wrong diet
Foreign body in intestines
Accumulation of wool
Presence of helminths
Diseases of the gastrointestinal tract
Neoplasms in the intestines
Inflammation of the anal glands
Spinal cord injury
Side effects of certain drugs
Psychological problems
Constipation is more common in cats that exercise little and eat natural foods. Also in older cats.
Symptoms of constipation in cats and cats
When constipated, a cat or cat cannot go to the toilet for several days. In addition to your pet’s stool retention, you’ll notice:
Sluggishness
Lack of appetite
Vomiting
Bloating
Plaintive meowing while trying to go to the toilet
The cat is constipated. What to do for the owner
The symptoms of constipation in a cat are often confused with intestinal obstruction. Obstruction requires urgent surgical care. It is associated with the formation of a mechanical obstruction or a violation of the motor function of the intestine.
If your pet cannot go to the toilet for several days, we recommend that you contact your veterinarian. Only a doctor can make a correct diagnosis after examining a pet. He will examine, palpate, do an ultrasound, take a blood test.
How to treat constipation in a cat
Constipation in a cat is not an independent disease, but a symptom. First of all, it is necessary to find out the cause of its appearance, especially if constipation occurs constantly. After identifying the cause, the doctor will be able to prescribe the appropriate treatment.
If your cat is constipated for the first time, give your cat first aid at home.
How to treat constipation in a cat at home:
Vaseline oil. Give it up to three times a day, every 3-4 hours. In the event that you are sure that the animal does not have an obstruction.
Laxative drug Dufalac with osmotic action. Give a remedy of 0.5 ml per 1 kg of pet’s body weight 1-2 times a day.
Preparations for the restoration of intestinal microflora. Take courses for 5-10 days.
Prevention of constipation
To prevent constipation in your pet, follow these rules:
Your cat’s diet should contain sufficient fiber. With natural feeding, add bran and vegetables to the pet’s menu. From ready-made feeds, give preference to high-quality balanced diets.
Make sure your pet is drinking enough water. Clean fresh water should be freely available. If your pet does not drink much, get a special drinker for him.
Brush your cat regularly. For fluffy cats, give special pastes for removing hair.
Control the activity of the cat, play with it more.
Watch your pet’s weight. Overweight cats are more likely to become constipated.
Treat your pet regularly for parasites and vaccinations.
Keep the cat’s litter box clean. Many pets refuse to go to a dirty tray, which provokes constipation.
Regular use of anthelmintic drugs
A cat, even a completely domestic one, is at risk of becoming infected with worms. Larvae and eggs of parasites are found in the soil, grass, puddles. You or your other pet can bring them into the house. Also, a cat becomes infected with worms when eating raw fish, meat, eating a fly or a flea.
Worms cause bloating, upset stomach and intestines. Often the presence of parasitic worms leads to constipation, and in kittens – to intestinal obstruction.
To keep your pet safe, deworm your cat regularly. For animals that walk along the street, once every 3 months, for pets-homebodies – once every six months.
Use Prazitel to treat and prevent worm infestation
Many veterinarians and cat breeders choose Prazitel to treat and prevent worm infestation. Prazitel is designed to treat cats against the main types of round and tapeworms. Produced in a convenient form of application – suspensions. Prazitel is also presented in the traditional form of tablets.

If your kid has assigned reading at school, it helps to have books handy. Libraries are the best for this, but not everyone has access to one. If you have a library card but live far away from your local branch, you can still access your branch’s digital resources, including movies, audiobooks, and even digitized picture books. The app was made by OverDrive, so if your library uses that system for e-book and audiobook lending, you should have access to Libby. While this app doesn’t actually teach kids how to read, it will hopefully give them plenty of material to read or listen to.
Ages: 2 and up.
Android iOS Windows
Language
Droplets
Simple graphics and a focus on the basics make this a good choice for beginning language learners, especially because you can’t set your level beyond beginner or intermediate.

A word of warning: The free version only lets you play for five minutes before locking you out for 10 hours.

One of our personal favorites is Blazer Fresh, who is self-described as nerdy by nature and will teach your child how to sing the alphabet backward.

Super Stretch Yoga
If you want your kids up and moving but in a tranquil way, Super Stretch Yoga is great for younger kids.

Educational applications for children 4-7 years old
When I allowed children to do something on their own on the iPad, I wanted these to be some kind of intelligent, educational applications. This is what we had in our favorite at 4-7 years old *.
* There is no promotional content in this collection. Only what we actually used. Some applications start to be paid after the trial version, please pay attention to the conditions! And make sure you have a passcode on your device before every purchase to avoid in-app purchases by childish playful hands.
Maths, age 4-6 ( iOS ). They screwed up this math. My son went through all 18 levels in English, then went through them in the second round in French when we lived in Paris. The Russian language also exists and also passed when the Russian language began to be forgotten.
Quick Maths ( iOS / Android ) entered when I was already good at counting, but I needed to learn to count faster. It is free and coolly implemented, because you need to quickly write the answer right on the phone screen. LOGIC
Flow Free ( iOS / Android ) where you need to connect the dots by color. The free version is enough. Even a three-year-old who learns colors can cope with simple levels. And then it gets harder and harder to choose.
The Tower of Hanoi Math puzzle ( iOS ) There are a lot of variations of this logic game in the app store and google play, but the meaning is the same – to transfer the pyramid of rings from one tower to another in the least number of moves.
Petson’s Inventions ( iOS / Android ) If your child is a fan of books about Petson and Findus, then this application will definitely come in! Book illustrations and inventions that you need to guess and collect – fly away. The only downside is the price. Because the child remembers how to collect inventions and asks to buy the second and third versions of the application, where there are new ideas. Monument Valley ( iOS / Android ) is a calm logic game, beautifully rendered, with pleasant music. You need to guide the princess figurine to the point on some incredible buildings. By the way, in 2014 this application received two awards for the game of the year and design of the year. And I think it develops spatial imagination.
LETTER
LetterSchool – Learn to Write! ( iOS / Android ) is a primitive application that teaches a child to write letters in English. My son loved to draw in it in the library when we lived in Connecticut.
I must admit that we did not install applications for writing and reading, because we loved books. But at one time we had a children’s computer Azbukvarik with the Russian alphabet, thanks to which all Russian letters settled down in our heads.
PROGRAMMING
ScratchJr ( iOS / Android ) application for children from 4 years old with the basics of the Scratch programming language. This language was invented by MIT University specifically for children and teenagers. The Jr app is Junior, but as soon as the child begins to own a computer, it is better to move from the children’s application to the official Scratch website and learn to program on the site itself. Now there are a lot of courses on Scratch, and after the child has played enough and stumbles on his own, you can expand the horizon of possibilities with the help of additional training.
codeSpark Academy: Kids Coding ( iOS / Android ) in addition to teaching programming, the application has games, and at first I growled at my son that instead of “benefit” he jumps off and plays. But it’s actually part of the learning, too. I noticed that when playing a game already invented by someone, passing through labyrinths, exploding and collecting rewards, the child then creates some of his own interesting stories, multi-movements and tasks. Therefore, definitely, the application helped to fall in love with creating your own games. And a year later we deleted it 🙂
Kodable ( iOS ) is a programming app used by children in elementary schools in the US and UK. We had a trial on the iPad at home, but then I didn’t sign up for a monthly subscription.
In general, children at programming lessons here at our school were shown a Klondike of all kinds of games that can be coded. At first I was horrified by the choice, but in addition to standard programs, there are unexpected ones: create your own application for proper nutrition, take a breath for meditation, and many applications for music and design.
1. Go to the site https://hourofcode.com/uk/learn 2. Filter by the age of your child: if you can’t read yet, press Prereader and there will be programming with arrows; if you have a 7-10 year old – choose Grade 2-5 3. Choose your device on the left: tablet, computer … and the child has a lot of options! Usually the teacher told the children to choose one coding game per 40-minute lesson and go deeper, as the tasks tend to get more difficult in the game. And I would still look at what is happening on the children’s screen, because this is still an open site with active links to the manufacturers of these games, which you can quickly go somewhere further on the Internet.
Head Start and Early Head Start programs are free, federally funded programs designed to promote school readiness for children from low-income families. Early Head Start serves pregnant women and families with children under age 3. Head Start programs serve children between 3 and 5 years old.
These programs encourage parent involvement through regular visits to the child’s home, regular opportunities for parents to volunteer in the program, and special activities. Head Start and Early Head Start programs also link children and families to other services in the community.
Head Start programs are operated by local nonprofit organizations, community action agencies, and school districts. Children who attend these programs participate in various educational activities. They also receive some free medical and dental care services, have healthy meals and snacks, and enjoy playing indoors and outdoors in a safe setting.
Head Start programs help all participating children succeed. They are required to serve children with special needs, such as physical and developmental delays or homelessness.
Head Start and Early Head Start programs must follow many federal requirements. Depending on the rules in your state, these programs may or may not be required to be licensed in addition to meeting federal requirements.
You can learn more about these programs by visiting the Head Start website. You’ll find more information on the kinds of services that are offered to enrolled children. You can also find out if you are eligible for services. The online program locator is available to help you find a program in your area. Once you find a local program, you can contact the program to learn more about how to apply for Head Start services.
Tips for Choosing This Type of Care
Ask whether your family qualifies for Head Start services and if your local program has any openings for children your child’s age.
Ask about the programs hours and if the program is available in the summer. Make sure that the program is open when you need care. If you need full-day or full-year care and the Head Start program doesn’t offer this, ask about partnerships with other child care providers that can care for your child when Head Start is not open.
Ask about what types of services you and your child will receive and whether there are any other requirements.
Ask about the program’s staff turnover rate (how frequently staff leave). If a program experiences a large amount of turnover, your child could experience many transitions to new teachers. A high turnover rate could also mean that there are issues that could affect the quality of the program.
Ask what curriculum is used. Also ask the provider to explain the types of daily activities planned for the children, and how those activities will support your child’s learning.
Ask about information and activities provided for parents. Ask if the program provides opportunites for parents to learn about how their children are doing or talk about their children’s progress.
Print a list of questions and things to look for that you can take with you when visiting a potential child care program.
Why Families Choose This Type of Care
Many families choose Head Start because of the free high-quality comprehensive early childhood services. Families may like that their children are cared for in groups with other children the same age. They may also appreciate the additional federal requirements that Head Start programs must meet.

State-Funded Preschool in Colorado | CDE
What is the Colorado Preschool Program (CPP)?
CPP is a state-funded, district-run, preschool program. CPP is intended to serve preschool-aged children who are at risk of starting elementary school unprepared due to individual or family factors. Eligibility determination and the enrollment process are coordinated at a local level.
To find out about CPP options in your community, use the Family Contact Directory to find the school district representative who can help you.
Family Contacts
What is Preschool Special Education and Child Find?
Preschool special education is a state and federally mandated program for three and four-year-old children who are experiencing challenges in their learning and development and meet state eligibility criteria for special education and related services.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my child eligible for CPP?
Child and family qualifying factors must be present in a child’s life in order for a child to be fit for CPP. These factors are determined by the legislature and are not based on income alone. Learn more about legislated eligibility criteria.
What are the age requirements for CPP?
The eligibility date for preschool is the same as the eligibility date for kindergarten in your district. A child must be 3, 4 or 5 by the district’s kindergarten age cut-off date, which can be no later than October 1.
If a child is three years old, the child must have three significant family risk factors in their life that put him or her at risk for later school challenges.
If a child is served as a four- or five-year-old, the child must be age-eligible for kindergarten the next year and have one significant family risk factor present in their lives. They may only participate in CPP for one year.
If a child is old enough to attend kindergarten, they cannot be funded by CPP to attend the second year in preschool.
If my family moves, will my child stay in CPP?
Since each school district manages its own program, your child’s spot in CPP cannot be transferred. If you move to a new school district, you will need to go through the enrollment process again in the new district. Because resources are limited, availability for placement cannot be guaranteed when a family moves from district to district.

Tilly
How much: 10 tasks per day – free, full access – from 83 R per month Age: from 2 to 7 years old
Tilly has developed courses for children from two years of age and to prepare those who are older for school. Children learn to distinguish colors, learn the names of the cubs of different animals, and train to determine whether an object is flat or three-dimensional in a picture.
And for future first-graders, classes help to understand the system of sounds and letters of the Russian language and mathematical concepts that will be needed at school: addition and subtraction, even and odd numbers, the number line and the composition of the number.
Classes are held in the form of interactive exercises. Children watch theory slides and listen to the speaker’s comments, and then complete tasks: they try to substitute the desired mathematical sign in an example or find where the stress falls in a word.

The Pushkin.Youth project is an educational course for students and schoolchildren based on the Pushkin Museum. All of them are devoted to the history of art and culture, but take place in different formats: from open lecture halls and project workshops to a full-fledged 4-year curriculum.
Usually classes at the museum are held face-to-face, but some of them are recorded on video: you can watch lectures by art historians on social networks. Now the museum is closed for quarantine, so classes are held live and are available to everyone. To get a link to the conference on Zoom, you need to leave contacts in a special form or just write to the guys on Instagram.

Pupils and students who are constantly studying at Pushkinsky conduct online tours of the museum, launch flash mobs and marathons and create their own games . If a child is just getting acquainted with art, you can start with entertainment: games will help you understand that museums are not boring, and flash mobs are a great way to join the company of other enthusiastic teenagers.
Every year on March 11, Pushkinsky.Youth students take the places of guides and acquaint visitors with the life and works of the Pushkin Museum

I want my child to have enough to study. How to save up for education?
Even those who cannot read yet can study. Actions on simple levels are indicated by icons, but the essence remains the same: to solve the problem, you will have to figure out in what order to perform actions, how cycles work, and how variable numerical values change the behavior of characters on the screen.
If you are tired of the same type of tasks, you can make your own project: program a mini-game or make colorful characters dance to the music. For inspiration, it is convenient to use the archive of other people’s work: all projects are published with open source so that students can exchange ideas and experiences with each other.

Classes are not held in groups, but one-on-one with a teacher: you can choose a convenient time and study at your own pace.
If a child gets bored with programming, you can try your hand at creativity – for example, learn 3D modeling
How much it costs: from 4300 R per month Age: from 8 years old
“School of programmers” is not an entertainment course, but full additional education with a program for several years. Classes are held according to the schedule in the mode of webinars: students communicate live with teachers, write and submit code for verification, and immediately receive feedback.

Children and science
Price: free Age: from 7 years old
The Children and Science project is not an addition, but an alternative to school lessons in biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics. Online courses for the portal were created by the best Russian teachers who do not want to work with outdated textbooks and programs. Previously, only students from several elite Moscow schools could attend their author’s classes, but now they are available to anyone with an Internet connection.
Each course consists of video lectures, notes, game assignments and a final test that will help assess how well the child has mastered the program. Each student chooses the pace and trajectory of learning for himself: for some, it is enough to look over the notes to catch all the most important things, and for some, they want to watch several related lectures on different subjects before moving on to the next thematic block.

What students can get for good studies
The “Children and Science” project will not be able to completely replace school classes: so far, the portal has only one or two lessons for each class. Most of all classes are in mathematics: among them there are also topics that are not even mentioned at school, for example, “Game Theory” and “Probability Theory and Statistics”.

Although Letovo is located in Moscow, children from all over the country can enter there: for students from other cities, there is a campus with accommodation buildings on the territory of the school.
To help talented children prepare for exams and make a good education accessible, Letovo teachers have created an online school. On this portal, students can check their level of knowledge in school subjects: the test will show which topics have gaps and offer materials that will help improve the result.
Letovo.Online also invites children to try their hand at solving Olympiad problems, and if this still doesn’t work, you can watch webinars where teachers explain the logic of solving competitive tasks.

Note on Frequency of Inspections
Centers, Group Homes, and Licensed Family Homes::
In 2014, legislation was passed that changed the number of unannounced visits from two per year to one per year in Child Care Centers, Group Child Care Homes, and Licensed Family Child Care Homes. As a result of this new law, you may see a decrease in the number of deficiencies listed on this website for these types of providers. Unannounced visits are still made in response to a complaint, and visits are scheduled with the facility during the re-licensing process, which occurs every two years.
Registered Family Homes:
Most family homes are registered, not licensed. In 2014, legislation was passed that allows Child Care Licensing to make one unannounced visit to these homes each year. As a result of this new law, you may see an increase in the number of deficiencies listed on this website for Registered Family Child Care Homes. Unannounced visits are still made in response to a complaint. Click here for an overview of each facility and the requirements they must meet according to state law.

WA border opening backflip hits sport hard as Perth Glory, Perth Wildcats pick up the pieces
West Australian sports teams have been left scrambling following the announcement that the state’s planned reopening on February 5 will not go ahead.
Key points:
Six WA teams are on the road and facing an indefinite return date
Perth Glory’s CEO says the delay is like being “hit with a sledgehammer”
The Perth Wildcats say they have been left with no clear end in sight
There are six Perth sporting organisations across three codes currently stranded in the eastern states, all of which had return dates locked in.
The Perth Glory have two teams on the road, while the Perth Wildcats, West Coast Eagles, Fremantle Dockers and Perth Lynx are also facing an indefinite return date.
The Perth Scorchers were always going to end their Big Bash campaign away from home, but now face an uncertain return date to Perth post-season.
Catch up on the latest COVID-19 news here
“I keep saying that there is light at the end of the tunnel, it’s not a train coming the other way,” Perth Glory CEO Tony Pignata told ABC Radio Perth.
“But I tell you what, it feels like a big train is coming now.”

The club left WA about a week ago, after spending Christmas in quarantine.
Mr Pignata said he had been assured by WA Police they would be able to return beyond February 5 as early as yesterday.
‘Sledgehammer’ blow: Glory CEO
The Glory chief executive said he watched Mr McGowan’s late night media conference with about 90 players and staff from both A-League men’s and women’s teams
McGowan’s border backflip may risk it all
The Premier’s plan to reopen the state on February 5 lies in ruins, and there’s a risk the backflip could weaken public goodwill — the key to WA’s COVID-19 strategy, writes Jacob Kagi.

He said the announcement was like being “hit with a sledgehammer”.
“I can appreciate the reasoning behind [the decision] … but we need to ensure we look after families over east who want to get back,” he said.
“Some of the regulations where you now have to isolate at home and everyone who is at home has to isolate around for 14 days, that’s untenable.”
He also highlighted the dire state of the club’s finances after a challenging time throughout the pandemic.
“We’re looking at millions and millions of dollars of losses and whether we can continue,” Pignata said.
Wildcats left with no clear end date
Like the Glory, the Perth Wildcats have been on the road for several weeks, after departing WA on December 27.

Wildcats coast Scott Morrison took to Twitter to express his frustration at the border delay and the uncertainty over when the team could return home.

The Wildcats had agreed to an extended road trip on the understanding the border would come down on February 5.
WA’s border is staying bolted shut. What now?
Western Australia once again has been left indefinitely closed off to the rest of the world. How did it come to this, and where do we go from here?

“It was a sacrifice but at least one that had a clear end date,” Wildcats CEO Troy Georgiu said.
“Now we aren’t sure when they will be able to return home, and as a club our priority is now to offer as much support as possible to the team and their families.
“We are extremely grateful for the sacrifices they are making for this club and we’re proud of the resilience they continue to show.”
The Wildcats were due to play their first home game back on February 6, and remain confident they will play 14 home games this season.
AFLW, AFL take stock
On top of the Glory and Wildcats, both AFLW sides from Fremantle and West Coast are in Victoria, where they had expected to spend three weeks before returning for home games.
It is unclear what the border change means for that competition or for the AFL season, which begins in March, with the first Perth match scheduled for March 20.
Loading Twitter content
Nic Naitanui joined those reacting on social media, suggesting Western Australia was acting like “its own country”.
If that season begins on time, that game, between West Coast and Gold Coast, it will be the first event of any kind at Perth Stadium since December 20.
The Fremantle Dockers said they were taking stock of the border decision.
“We will immediately turn our attention to working with the AFL and WA Police to ascertain what the remainder of our women’s season and the commencement of the men’s season will look like,” Fremantle CEO Simon Garlick told the club’s website.
“The decision is one that would have some of our members feeling frustrated and disappointed, and others feeling safe and secure.”
“For the past two years, every challenge that COVID-19 has presented our club and our industry has been accepted and met, and this one will be no different.
“We will keep working as hard as we can to get the best result possible for the club and appreciate your patience and understanding as always.”
Freo’s Darcy Tucker ‘upset’ but backs government
Dockers midfielder Darcy Tucker said the decision was hard to deal with for players who lived away from their families.

“As a Victorian it’s pretty tough and I was a bit upset,” he said.
“A lot of us boys were planning to head back there. Not just Victorians but South Australians and every interstate player.
“I was booked to go on the 31st (of January) for a six-day break. So yeah, it’s upsetting not to be able to see my family.
“But I back the WA government in and their goal is to protect the community, and we’re all for that as well.”

Bengal cat – Wikipedia
The Bengal cat is a domesticated cat breed created from hybrids of domestic cats, especially the spotted Egyptian Mau, with the Asian leopard cat ( Prionailurus bengalensis ). The name of the breed comes from the taxonomic name of the leopard cat.
Bengals have a wild appearance; their golden shimmer comes from their leopard cat ancestors, and their coats may have spots, rosettes, arrowhead marks, or marbling. This is an energetic breed that requires a lot of exercise and play.
Contents
1 History
1.1 Early history
1.2 Bengals as a breed Our cats and everything about them . [1]
The next recorded mention of a cross between an Asian leopard cat and a domestic cat was in 1924 by the Belgian Scientific Journal, and in 1941 a Japanese publication on cats published an article about a cat kept as a pet. [2]
The first breeding attempts always stopped after one or two generations. Jean Mill was a breeder who decided to make a domestic cat with the fur of a wild cat.
Bengals as a breed
Jean Sugden Mill holding a Bengal cat in an undated photograph.
Gene Mill of California is considered the creator of the modern Bengal breed. She had a degree in psychology from Pomona College and took several courses in genetics at UC Davis. [3]
She made the first known deliberate crossbreeding of an Asian leopard cat with a domestic cat (a black California cat). [4] However, Bengals as a breed actually started in earnest much later. [3] In 1970, Mill resumed her breeding efforts, and in 1975 she received a group of Bengal cats that were bred for use in genetic testing at Loma Linda University by Willard Centerwall. [5] Others also started breeding Bengals. [ WHO? ]
Cat Registries
In 1983, the breed was officially accepted by the International Cat Association (TICA). [5] Bengals gained championship status in 1991. [6]
In 1997, the Cat Fancy Governing Council (GCCF) accepts Bengal cats. [7]
In 1999, the Fédération Internationale Féline (FIFe) accepted Bengal cats into its registry. [8]
B The Cat Fanciers Association (CFA) was one of the last organizations to accept the Bengal cat into its registry. The CFA board accepted the Bengal cat as Miscellaneous at a board meeting on February 7, 2016. For a Bengal cat to be registered with the CFA, it must be F6 or later (6 generations removed from the Asian Leopard Cat or non-Bengal domestic cat’s feline ancestors).” [9]
In 1999, the Australian Cat Federation (ACF) accepted the Bengal cat into its registry. [10]

Early generation Bengal
Bengals from the first three generations of breeding (F1 – F3) are considered “founder cats” or “early generation” Bengals. Early generation (F1 – F3) males are often sterile. Thus, female F1, F2 and F3 early generation Bengals are bred to fertile domestic Bengals. [4] F1 hybrid Bengal females are fertile, so they are used in subsequent unidirectional reverse cross matings with fertile male domestic cats. Some male Bengals have produced viable sperm as early as the F2 backcross generation: this is considered rare in breeding communities that regularly cross early generation females with fertile late generation hybrid males. [11]
To be considered a domestic Bengal cat in major cat registries, a Bengal cat must be at least four generations (F4) or more from an Asian Leopard cat. [12]
Popularity
The Bengal breed was more fully developed by the 1980s. “In 1992, the International Cat Association had 125 registered Bengal Breeders.” [4] By the 2000s, Bengals had become a very popular breed. In 2019, there are over 1,000 Bengal breeders worldwide.
Bengal breeding growth
Year
Bengal breeders registered with TICA
Bengals come in a wide variety of coat colors. [14] [15] The International Cat Association (TICA) recognizes several Bengal colors. Brown spotted, lynx point seal (snow), sepia, silver and mink spotted Striped Bengals. [16]
Spotted rosette

The Bengal cat is the only domestic cat breed that has a rosette marking.
People most often associate the Bengal with the most popular color: the Brown Spotted/Pink Bengal. However, Bengals have a wide variety of colors and patterns. Even in the brown spot/rosette category, bengals can be: red, brown, black, ticked, grey, spotted, rosette, cloudy. Many people are struck by the resemblance of a Bengal cat to a leopard. Among domestic cats, the Bengal color is perhaps the most diverse and unique.
Marble
Brown Marble Bengal at TICA (2013)
Domestic cats have four different ancestral coat patterns – ticked, mackerel, spotted and spotted – collectively referred to as tabby spots. [17]
Christopher Kahlin, a Stanford University geneticist, conducted a study that was used to identify the spotted gene and the marbled gene in domestic Bengal cats. Kaelin studied color and pattern variation in northern California feral cats and was able to identify the gene responsible for the marbled pattern in Bengal cats. [18]

Bengal size
The Bengal is a spotted cat breed of medium to large size. [19] Bengals are long and lean. Bengals are larger than the average domestic cat due to their muscular body.
Legal restrictions
In the US, cities and states may have legal restrictions. In New York and the state of Hawaii, Bengal cats are illegal (as are all other domestic-feral cat hybrids). [20] [21] [22] In various other places, such as Seattle, Washington and Denver, Colorado, there are restrictions on owning Bengal. [23] Generation F1-F4 Bengals are regulated in New York State, Georgia, Massachusetts, Delaware, Connecticut, and Indiana. Except as noted above, Bengal cats from and beyond the F5 generation are considered domestic and generally legal.
Bengali was regulated in the United Kingdom, however the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs removed previous licensing requirements in 2007. [24]
F5 Bengals are not restricted in Australia, but their importation is difficult. [25]
Temperament
Bengal cats are intelligent, energetic and playful (although in some rare cases they can be quite lazy). Many Bengal owners say that their Bengals naturally retrieve objects and often enjoy playing in the water. [26]
The International Cat Association (TICA) describes the Bengal cat as an active, inquisitive cat that likes to climb high. Most Bengals enjoy playing, racing, climbing and exploring. In general, Bengals love action. Bengals are generally confident and curious. [6]
Health
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)
Example of a completed HCM report
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a serious problem in the Bengal cat breed. This is a disease in which the heart muscle (myocardium) becomes abnormally thick (hypertrophied). Thick heart muscle can make it difficult for a cat’s heart to pump blood. [27] The only way to determine the suitability of Bengal cats for breeding is to have the cat’s heart scanned by a cardiologist.
HCM is a common genetic disorder in Bengal cats and as of 2018 no genetic testing has been performed. The current practice of screening for HCM involves taking Bengal cats to a certified veterinary cardiologist where an echocardiogram is performed. Bengal cats used for breeding should be examined annually to ensure there is no hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Currently, North Carolina State University is trying to identify genetic markers of HCM in the Bengal cat. [28]
One study published in Journal of Internal Veterinary Medicine states that the prevalence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in Bengal cats is 16.7% (95% CI = 13.2–46.5%). [29]
Bengal Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA-b)
Bengal cats are known to be susceptible to several genetic diseases, one of which is Bengal. progressive retinal atrophy, also known as Bengal PRA or PRA-b. Anyone who breeds Bengal cats should have this test done as it is inexpensive, non-invasive and easy to perform. A breeder who claims his cats have been “veterinarian tested” does not mean that the test was performed by a veterinarian: it is performed by the breeder outside the veterinary office (rarely, if ever, by a veterinarian). The test is then sent directly to the laboratory.
Red blood cell pyruvate kinase deficiency (PK-deficiency or PK-def)
PK deficiency is a common genetic disorder found in Bengal cats. PK deficiency is another test that a breeder does. Breeding Bengal cats should be tested before breeding to ensure that two PK-deficient carriers do not mate. This is a test that the breeder must pass on their own. The breeder uses a cotton swab to rub the inside of the cat’s mouth and then sends it off to the lab.
Bengal blood type
At the University of California, Davis, the Veterinary Genetics Laboratory studied the blood types of domestic cats. They concluded that most domestic cats fall into the AB system. Common blood types are A and B, and some cats have the rare AB blood type. There are not enough samples from Bengal cats, so the genetics of the AB blood type in Bengal cats is not well understood. [30]
In one UK study of the Bengal blood type, 100 Bengal cats were tested. They concluded that all 100 Bengal cats tested had type A blood. [31]
Responsible Bengal Breeding
Responsible Bengal breeders are learning which recessive genes their breeding cats carry. The most serious problems in breeding Bengals are hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), progressive retinal atrophy, and pyruvate kinase deficiency. Cat breeders should be aware of all current breed specific tests. Bengal breeders must carry out all available tests to ensure that they do not breed cats with health problems.
HCM screening is a topic that Bengal breeders can discuss. HCM can develop in their Bengal cats at any time, including shortly after their annual HCM screening. this is best practice for screening all Bengal cats used in breeding programs: HCM screening by a cardiologist is the only useful test that exists for Bengal and Bengal breeders in 2019. Responsible and consistent screening makes the breed healthier as breeders strive to exclude cats screening positive for HCM. [32]
Shedding and grooming
Bengals are often sought after by breeders [33] and pet adoption agencies [34] to be a hypoallergenic breed – less likely to cause an allergic reaction. The Bengal cat is said to have below average levels of allergens, [34] [ needs a better source ] although this has not been scientifically proven as of 2020.
Feline geneticist Leslie Lyons, director of the University of Missouri Laboratory of Cats and Comparative Genetics does not accept such claims, noting that there is no such thing as a hypoallergenic cat. Thus, putative hypoallergenic breeds may still cause a reaction in those with severe allergies. Hypoallergenic, which means “below average” or “slightly” allergenic, means that a substance (especially cosmetics and textiles) is believed to cause fewer allergic reactions. [35]
Cashmere Bengal (longhaired)
Cashmere Bengal kitten with long hair
A few longhaired Bengals (more precisely, semi-longhaired) have always been found in Bengal tribes. Many domestic cats were used to create the Bengal breed, and the long hair gene is thought to have originated from one of them. reverse intersections. UC Davis developed a long hair genetic test to allow Bengal breeders to select Bengal cats with a recessive long hair gene for their breeding programs. [36]
Some Bengal cats used for breeding may carry the recessive longhair gene. When a male and female Bengal carry a copy of the recessive long hair gene and the two Bengals mate with each other, they can produce long-haired Bengals. (See Cat Coat Genetics#Genes Affecting Coat Length and Texture.) In the past, longhaired offspring of Bengal matings were spayed or neutered until some breeders decided to breed the longhaired Bengal (which they called the Cashmere Bengal). 9 Longeri, M.; Ferrari, P.; Knafelz, P.; Mezzelani, A.; Marabotti, A.; Milanesi, L.; Pertica, G.; Polly, M.; Brambilla, P.G.; Kittleson, M.; Lyons, L.A.; Porciello, F.

Bengal Genelia 9097 B Bengalia about Bengali Greece. Nature, plants and animals of Greece Greece nature and wildlife
The flora of all regions of Greece is the richest in Europe with more than 6000 varieties and sub-species, of which 700-750 species are native, which inhabit and can only be found within the borders of Greek territory .
However, unfortunately, today the animal world of the country is poor in mammals, especially large ones, which were exterminated by man for several millennia. Red deer have almost completely disappeared from the country, but small animals such as rabbits and hares are common. Larger animals are still found in the mountains: the mountain goat and brown bear are found in Pinda and the mountains along the border with Bulgaria, and the wolf is found in more remote forest areas. Also from predators in Greece you can see a wild cat, a fox, a jackal, a stone marten, a badger, a wild boar, a European bear, a lynx. Of the ungulates, there are the Cretan wild goat, fallow deer, roe deer, and wild boar. On the territory of Greece, there are many animals listed in the Red Book, among them: the Mediterranean sea turtle, the monk seal. The most numerous mammals are rodents (porcupine, gray hamster, mice, dormouse, voles, etc.), southern species of bats and insectivores – shrews, hedgehogs, moles. In Greece, a variety of reptiles – turtles, lizards, snakes. They easily tolerate heat and lack of moisture in the dry summer season. The wooded areas are home to the Greek land tortoise, the most common tortoise species in the country. Of the numerous lizards, the most typical for Greece are rocky, or wall, Greek sharp-headed, Peloponnesian, Ionic and the largest in Europe – green. Among snakes, snakes, snakes, horned vipers are especially common. Diverse and the world of birds. Quail, wild ducks, wood pigeons and stockheads, gray and especially mountain partridges, brightly feathered hoopoes, rollers, kingfishers, and from predatory kites, black vultures, eagles, falcons, owls are the most typical representatives of the bird fauna of Greece and the entire Mediterranean. There are numerous flocks of seagulls on the sea coasts. The long-nosed cormorant, curly pelican, and stork are also characteristic of Greece. The southern green woodpecker, mountain bunting lives in the forests. Representatives of the passerine order are typical for the country – stone sparrow, canary finch, Greek swallow. There are also many types of terrestrial mollusks (snails). So, in Crete there are 120 species of mollusks, of which 77 are peculiar only to this territory.
Greece is one of the richest countries in Europe in terms of vegetation. In Greece, orange and olive trees grow right on the streets, which are one of the three main sources of income for Greece after tourism and navigation. The flora is very diverse (there are more than 6 thousand plant species) and varies depending on the height above sea level. Shrubs predominate: they cover 25% of the country’s territory, while forests – only 19%. In ancient times, only a small part of the land was suitable for processing and cultivating crops. In order to get new territories for arable land and gardens, they began to cut down forests covering the slopes of the mountains. Therefore, now only 12% of the country’s territory is occupied by forests. They say that “Greece was eaten by goats.” Indeed, sheep and goats, bred for a long time by the Greeks, ate and trampled the young shoots of trees. Thickets of evergreens – maquis and shiblyak – are widespread here. Freegana thickets are also typical for Greece – low, poorly deciduous prickly shrubs. Many scientists believe that this is a secondary vegetation that formed on the site of oak forests cut down in ancient times. The evergreen Mediterranean vegetation covers the plains and almost all the foothills. Maquis and freegana are the most characteristic of this belt. There are groves of pines, evergreen oaks, cypresses and plane trees. On the peninsula grows mastic pistachio – a deciduous plant. If a notch is made on it, juice will flow – mastic, a transparent varnish is made from it, which is used to cover picturesque paintings.
The so-called “evergreen belt” mainly consists of cultivated vegetation. Its most typical representative is the olive (olive). It is impossible to imagine Greece without olive groves. The olive branch has long been a symbol of Greek culture, the Greek land. Meanwhile, the olive tree is just as alien here as the Greek tribes. The birthplace of the olive tree is the sultry coast of Phoenicia. The Phoenicians, fearless navigators, were the first to master the waters of the Mediterranean Sea. They brought the bones of an unprecedented plant to Crete. Curiosities were loved in Crete. So next to the palace of Minos, the first olive grove appeared.
In the coastal lowlands (especially in Central and Northern Greece), most of the land is occupied by cereal fields, as well as cotton and tobacco plantations. On the plains and in the foothill zone, vineyards and orchards of Mediterranean fruit trees are widespread. Pyramid cypresses are often found near settlements. Orchards are often bordered by high natural hedges of agaves and prickly pear, which complete the colorful picture of the cultivated vegetation of the evergreen belt. Evergreen and deciduous forests grow from 120 to 460 m – oak, black spruce, walnut, beech, sumac.
Next to the “evergreen belt” is a belt of mountain forests and shrubs, in which, with increasing height, cultivated vegetation is increasingly replaced by natural vegetation, evergreen forests and shrubs are replaced by deciduous, and the latter by coniferous, reaching the upper border of the forest, such wild flowers also grow here like anemones and cyclamens. Above the slopes, first deciduous (oak, maple, plane tree, ash, linden, chestnut, beech in the upper part) and then coniferous (fir, pine) forests grow; above 2000 m – subalpine meadows. Greece, like the Balkans in general, abounds in walnuts. They are called the acorns of the gods, and they grow on deciduous trees with a spreading crown up to 30 meters high. Jam is prepared from unripe nuts, mature nuts and nut butter are very healthy and tasty. It is interesting that you can get acquainted with the flora and fauna of Greece not only from popular science sources.
The amazingly interesting flora and fauna of the Greek island of Corfu is described in the artistic trilogy of the great naturalist Gerald Durrell, who spent five years of his childhood on this wonderful island. The trilogy includes My Family and Other Beasts, Birds, Beasts and Relatives, and The Garden of the Gods, written with unsurpassed humor.
In Greece, the number of animals has been rapidly decreasing over the past few millennia due to hunting. Also, the flora of this country has become poor. Almost all large mammals were exterminated, if they are found, then only in the mountains on the border with Bulgaria and in Pinda. But there are many small animals in the country.
Among large animals here you can see a brown bear, a mountain goat living in the mountains, a wolf living in forests. But the red deer here is almost completely exterminated. Of the small animals, there are many rabbits and hares.
There are hoofed animals – wild boar, fallow deer, wild goat, roe deer. Of the mammals, rodents (mice, voles, gray hamster, dormouse, porcupine), insectivores (moles, shrews, moles) and bats of the southern species can be found in large numbers. There is a great variety of reptiles in Greece: lizards, turtles, snakes. They tolerate the lack of moisture and heat well in summer. For Greece, a typical lizard that lives on the rocks. There are also Peloponnesian, Greek sharp-headed, Ionic and green lizards, considered the largest in Europe. Of the turtles, such a species as the land Greek prevails. She lives in the woodlands.
The most common snakes are snakes, snakes, horned vipers.
Greece is inhabited by many predators such as: jackal, fox, wild cat, European bear, wild boar, lynx, badger, stone marten. In this country, there are animals that are exterminated by man and are on the verge of extinction. They were listed in the Red Book. Some of these animals are the monk seal and the Mediterranean sea turtle.
The world of birds in Greece is very diverse and numerous. Here live wild ducks, hoopoes with bright plumage, pigeons, stock doves and wood pigeons, quails, mountain and gray partridges, kingfishers, rollers. Birds of prey are represented by black vultures, falcons, eagles, kites, and also the most typical representatives of the world of birds for Greece and the Mediterranean are owls. Seagulls are found on the coasts.
Greece is characterized by such species of birds as stork, curly pelican, long-nosed cormorant. The detachment of passerines is numerous – canary finch, stone sparrow, Greek swallow. There are a large number of mollusks (snails) in the country. In Crete alone, there are 120 species of mollusks, 77 of them are characteristic only for this country.
Flora of Greece
The soil and vegetation cover is characterized by altitudinal zonality. The vegetation of Greece is very diverse (there are more than 6 thousand plant species) and varies depending on the height above sea level. Shrubs predominate: they cover 25% of the country’s territory, while forests – only 19%.
Thickets of evergreens – maquis and shiblyak – are widespread here. Freegana thickets are also typical for Greece – low, poorly deciduous prickly shrubs. Many scientists believe that this is a secondary vegetation that formed on the site of oak forests cut down in ancient times.

There are numerous flocks of seagulls on the sea coasts.
The long-nosed cormorant, Dalmatian pelican, and stork are also characteristic of Greece. The southern green woodpecker, mountain bunting lives in the forests.
Greece is located in the south of the Balkan Peninsula and on the adjacent 2000 islands of the Mediterranean, Aegean and Ionian Seas, which account for almost 20% of its territory and of which only 166 are inhabited. By land, Greece borders on Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria and Turkey. From the west to the east of the Aegean Sea stretches a chain of islands – the Cyclades, and from north to south along the coast of Asia Minor – the Sporades (Dodecanese). In the south, the Aegean Sea, as it were, closes with Crete, the largest island of Greece. Along the western coast are the Ionian Islands.
The country is named after the ethnonym of the people – the Greeks.

Climate
The climate of Greece is subtropical Mediterranean. It differs somewhat across the country. In the northern half of Greece, the coldest months are January and February. At this time, at night, the air temperature drops to weakly positive values (+1 … +3), and in some years to slightly negative values \u200b\u200b(0 … -2), in the daytime it is 8 . .. 10 degrees .
The warmest time of the year is July and August. Even at night in these months, the temperature never falls below +20; during the day, it often crosses the thirty-degree mark. The rainiest period in the north of the country lasts from November to January. At this time, the number of days with precipitation ranges from 10 to 12 days per month. The driest period: from July to September (monthly number of days with precipitation from 3 to 5).
The climate of the plains and foothills of the central part of Greece is practically the same as in the north. But in the mountainous regions that occupy most of the territory, the temperature is much lower, and some mountain peaks are covered with snow all year round.
In the south of Greece, the coldest months are January and February, when at night the air temperature is about +6o, during the day 12…13o. The hottest time is July. In it at night its value is 22 … 23 degrees, in the daytime on average + 30 . .. + 33 degrees. The maximum number of days with precipitation falls on November – January (the number of days with precipitation during the month is 12-16), the driest period is from June to September (the number of days with precipitation during the month is 2-4).
On the islands, temperatures are warmer at night and the heat of the day is moderated by cool sea breezes. The coldest time of the year is from December to March. At night at this time it is from 5 to 8 degrees, in the daytime 11 … 16 degrees. The warmest time of the year is from June to September, when at night the temperature is 21…22, in the daytime 27…30 degrees. The wettest time is from December to February (the number of days with precipitation in each of the months is 9-12), the driest is from June to September (for the entire month of this period, not a drop of rain may fall).
The swimming season starts in May, when the water temperature during the month rises from +17 to +19. In summer (from June to August) it is 20. ..25 degrees, in September and October 21…23 degrees. During the rest of the year, the water temperature off the coast of Greece is never below +15 degrees.
Geography
Greece occupies the southeastern and southern parts of the Balkan Peninsula, as well as a number of islands, which account for one fifth of the territory. The largest islands are Crete, Rhodes, Lesbos, Euboea. Greece’s neighbors in the north are Macedonia and Bulgaria, in the northwest – Albania, in the northeast – Turkey. From the south, the country is washed by the Mediterranean Sea, from the west – by the Ionian, from the east – by the Aegean.
On the northern coast of the Aegean Sea, called Thrace, there are the southern spurs of the Rhodope Mountains. The central part of mainland Greece is occupied by the Pindus mountain range, the highest point of which is Mount Olympus, the home of the ancient mythological gods. Olympus rises to a height of 2917 m. On the peninsulas, the mountains are rocky, but in some places they recede inland, giving way to flat areas. The relief of numerous islands is also mountainous. The largest plains of Greece, Thessaly and Thessaloniki, are located along the coast of the Aegean Sea.
The rivers of Greece are small in length. Basically, they flow along faults in the mountains, therefore they have a fast current. The main rivers are Arakhtos, Aheeloos, Alyakmon, Pinhos and Sperchios (mainland), Alfios and Evrotas (Peloponnese), Aksios (Vardar), Strymon (Struma) and Nestos (Mesta) (Macedonia and Thrace). In Greece, there are many lakes of karst origin, there are also mineral springs. The area of Greece is 132 thousand sq. km.

Animal world
There is little natural vegetation in Greece, the country’s fauna is poor in mammals, especially large ones, which were exterminated by man over several millennia. The red deer is almost exterminated, but small animals such as rabbits and hares are common. Larger animals are still found in the mountains: the mountain goat and brown bear are found in Pinda and the mountains along the border with Bulgaria, and the wolf is found in more remote forest areas.
Also among predators in Greece you can see a wild cat, a fox, a jackal, a stone marten, a badger, a wild boar, a European bear, a lynx. Of the ungulates, there are the Cretan wild goat, fallow deer, roe deer, and wild boar. On the territory of Greece, there are many animals listed in the Red Book, among them: the Mediterranean sea turtle, the monk seal.
The most numerous mammals are rodents (porcupine, gray hamster, mice, dormouse, voles, etc.), southern species of bats and insectivores – shrews, hedgehogs, moles.

Banks and currency
Since 2002, a new currency has been introduced in Greece – the euro. Only euros and credit cards are accepted everywhere. Euros can be easily bought at exchange offices, including at a hotel, and exchanged back into dollars when leaving the country. Banknotes of 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 euros and coins of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 cents are used. There are 100 cents in one euro. There is no “black market” for currency exchange.
Fur shops often accept US dollars for payment.
The working day of Greek banks is very short – from 8:00 to 13:00, at the latest – until 14:00. Exchange offices work until 20.00 even on weekends, but from 1 to 2% is charged for the exchange operation. There are many ATMs in the country that accept Visa, MasterCard, etc. Traveler’s checks are also widely used.
Useful information for tourists
In restaurants, taverns and cafes, it is customary to tip 5-10% of the total order. To pay, it is not necessary to wait for the waiter – you can simply leave the money on the plate on which the bill was brought.
There is only one strict ban: when visiting the monasteries, you can not wear shorts, T-shirts, and women – trousers and miniskirts. However, it is not necessary to wear hats. In many monasteries there is a small room in front of the entrance where long skirts and loose trousers hang, which you can put on if your clothes are too frivolous.
Greece is a country unique in every sense. Just think, it consists of three parts – mainland, island and western Asia Minor near the sea.
Flora and fauna of Greece are extremely diverse, many species of plants and animals can be seen here and only here. There are even rare species listed in the Red Book … So, now about everything in order.
The Greek peninsula is located in the southeast of the European continent at the very Asian border and covers an area of 131 944 square kilometers
90,966 (including 25,000 square meters of islands).
Greek territory covers: the southern tip of the Balkan Peninsula, as well as the islands of the Mediterranean, Ionian and Aegean Seas.
Part of the country, located on the mainland, washed by the seas on three sides, the length of the coastline is 4100 kilometers (and if you take into account the islands, then about 15,000 kilometers).
Approximately a thousand islands are part of this state – and this is about 20 percent of the entire territory of Greece.
Albania and Bulgaria are neighboring countries of Greece in the north, in the east the state borders on Turkey. The western shores are washed by the Ionian Sea, the eastern – by the Aegean, and the southern – by the Mediterranean.
The largest islands are:
Greece is located at the crossroads of trade routes, which has always brought economic benefits to the country. The indented coastline with a large number of bays and bays created natural ship harbors.
Flora of Greece
Without exaggeration, Greece can be called a real treasury of the most diverse plants – there are more than 6 thousand of them.
And this despite the fact that 750 species of them can be found exclusively in Greek territory.
Europe’s richest country in terms of flora will welcome you with olive and orange trees that spread their fragrant branches right on the streets!
Incidentally, the fruits of these trees are one of the main sources of income for Greece, along with tourism and navigation.
Species diversity of the Greek flora is in direct proportion to the height above sea level and is represented mainly by shrubs – 25 percent territory of the country, less forests – only 19 percent .
Goats ate Greece
Ancient Greece could not boast of fertile lands, therefore, in order to obtain new territories for the cultivation of crops, forests that densely covered the mountain slopes had to be cut down.
It is for this reason that now only no more than 12 percent of the territory of Greece is occupied by forests.
Many people have heard the expression “Greece was eaten by goats”, but, perhaps, not everyone will be able to explain what it is connected with. The fact is that the Greeks from ancient times bred sheep and goats, which trampled and chewed young shoots of trees with pleasure.

Deciduous and evergreen trees
In Greece, evergreen maquis and shibleka, as well as thorny semi-shrubs – freegans, are very common.
According to scientists, this vegetation was formed on the site of oak forests, which were cut down in ancient times. The plains and foothills are also covered with Mediterranean evergreen vegetation.
There are oak, cypress, sycamore and pine groves here. There is also a wonderful leafy plant – mastic pistachio, from the juice of which they make a transparent varnish that serves as a coating for picturesque paintings.
Coniferous belt
The “evergreen belt” is represented mainly by cultivated vegetation, and here the dominant role, no doubt, belongs to the olive.
The olive branch is the epitome of Greek culture, although Phoenicia is actually its homeland. It was the brave Phoenician sailors who brought the bones of an outlandish plant to Crete.
This is how the first olive grove arose near the palace of Minos.
The coastal lowlands of Greece are occupied by tobacco and cotton plantations, as well as cereal fields. In the foothill zone and on the plains, gardens of Mediterranean fruit trees and the gifts of the god Dionysus – vineyards are widespread.
You can often see pyramidal cypresses near the settlements. Orchards are surrounded by natural hedges of prickly pear and agave. Coniferous and deciduous forests – black spruce, beech, oak, sumac and walnut – grow from 120 to 460 meters.
Belt of mountain forests and shrubs
Next comes the belt of mountain forests and shrubs, it shows the following trend: as the height increases, the cultivated vegetation is replaced by natural, coniferous forests and shrubs – deciduous, and deciduous – evergreen.
There are wild flowers here – cyclamens and anemones.
A very unusual jam is made from unripe fruits, and ripe nuts and nut butter are extremely tasty and healthy.
Mammals in the fauna of Greece are not so common, especially large ones, because man exterminated them for several millennia in a row.
The red deer is almost completely exterminated.
In Pinda and the mountains along the border with Bulgaria, the brown bear and the mountain goat are still found, and even the wolf lives in the forests.

Dear parents!
You can register a child (queue):
– Through the Internet portal of public services of the Russian Federation.
– At any office of the multifunctional center for the provision of state and municipal services in the city of Stavropol (MFC):
– Mira street, 282 a;
– Golenev street, 21;
– Vasilyev street, 49;
– 50 let VLKSM street, 8a/1-2;
– Tukhachevsky street, 16 B.
MFC office hours :
Monday
08:00-20:00
Tuesday
08:00-18:00

Thursday
08:00-18:00
Friday

Saturday

Sunday
Day off
The following documents must be submitted to register a child:
– passport of one of the parents (legal representatives) of the child;
– birth certificate of the child;
– documents confirming the right at the time of the application of parents (legal representatives) to an extraordinary or priority provision of a place in a preschool organization in accordance with applicable law (if any).
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO APPLY?
The following documents are required to apply
1) Child’s birth certificate
2) Parent’s passport
3) Documents confirming the right to benefits
You need to register on the website and apply online, or in person contact the MKU “MFC in Stavropol” with a package of documents for placing the child on the waiting list for kindergarten.
WHEN I APPLY, DO I HAVE TO CHOOSE 3 KINDERGARTENS? WHY DO I DO THIS IF I WANT TO SEND THE CHILD TO A SPECIFIC KINDERGARTEN?
When submitting an application, in accordance with regulatory documents, each parent can indicate no more than 3 kindergartens where they want to enroll their child. This is done so that during distribution, if there are not enough places in the priority kindergarten, the system can try to distribute the child to the second priority. If there are no places there, then – in the third. However, if you have chosen one particular kindergarten, then when applying, you can only indicate it. In this case, if there are not enough places in the kindergarten, your application will be postponed until the next year. Application time will remain.
WHAT IS THE QUEUING ALGORITHM?
The queue is formed in accordance with the following algorithm: applications are lined up in the order of submission (the day, hour, minute and even second of submission are fixed). But the applications submitted on preferential terms are distributed among them in the first place. Also, during automatic distribution, the number of free places in a particular kindergarten in the corresponding age groups is taken into account. Therefore, the location of the parent in the queue may change.
CAN I SEE MY PLACE IN THE LINE SOMEWHERE?
The parent does not have this function, because the principle of queuing does not guarantee you that your place in the queue will remain unchanged until distribution. The fact is that the queue fixes not only the time of application, but also the benefits available to applicants. Preferential applications have priority in distribution, regardless of the time of submission of such an application. You can assess the current situation in terms of the availability of places in the kindergarten you are interested in by studying the section “Select a preschool”.
IF I FORGET / LOST THE PASSWORD TO ENTER THE PORTAL, WHAT SHOULD I DO?
In the “Login” section, you need to click on the link “Forgot your password?”, Enter your e-mail in the field that opens, and you will immediately receive an email with a new password.
IF I PREVIOUSLY APPLIED FOR ONE CHILD, DO I HAVE TO RE-REGISTER TO APPLY FOR A SECOND CHILD NOW?
If you have previously applied for one child, you do not need to register in the system a second time to apply for a second child. You log in with your old username and password and add a new application in the Applications section. Information about previously submitted applications, as well as about previously registered children, will be stored in your personal account.
MY APPLICATION HAS BEEN ALLOCATED WITH A NUMBER AFTER SUBMISSION. IS MY STATEMENT NUMBER IN THE QUEUE?
The number that was assigned to your application has nothing to do with your place in the queue. The application number is generated automatically by the system and is only relevant when contacting technical support to resolve technical issues, if any.
After submitting the application, the child enters the general queue for admission to preschool. Applications are sorted by date of submission, linking preschool to certain addresses (in large cities) and category of child benefits. You can choose to enroll up to 3 preschools in order of preference for enrollment – if the child does not have enough space in the first preschool selected, then the system tries to allocate him to the next one, etc. You can check which preschool the child is currently assigned to in your personal account.

Educational program of preschool educational institution
For years parents and teachers discussed whether or not to teach values in schools. That debate ended when two boys opened fire at Columbine High School in 1999, killing 15 students, including themselves. In the wake of that tragedy, the worst incidence of school violence in our nation’s history, discussion has shifted to which values to teach and how to teach them effectively.
“In the long run, I’m not sure that it matters if a student learns algebra, but I know that it matters if a student learns right from wrong,” says George Booz, former principal at South Carroll High School in Sykesville, Maryland, a school nationally recognized for its character education program. “I know that it matters if a person learns that in this world we have to help each other. I don’t see how we get around that.”
Character education programs have sprouted up around the country, some with astonishing, quantifiable results:
In 1993 the playground at Seattle’s Gatzert Elementary School, a high-poverty school where a third of the children are homeless, resembled a battlefield at lunch recess. The only way to control the fistfighting and violent behavior was to line up the 40 to 50 troublemakers along the school wall and keep an eye on them. Today only minor problems occur on the playground, and no children are lined up against the wall.
The successful transformation took a lot of hard work on the part of staff and students, according to Judy Ginn, a third grade teacher at the school. New staff, prevention intervention specialists, paying attention to changing the climate and culture at the school, and the Giraffe Heroes Project, a hands-on character education curriculum that she and other teachers at the school have used in their classrooms since 1994, all played a part.

Through the Giraffe Project, children work with adult volunteers and learn to be like giraffes – that is, animals who stick their necks out, have big hearts, are persistent, do no harm and make the world a better place through their actions. The children come up with community-based projects, such as canned food drives or anti-litter campaigns, which they organize themselves. In the process, they learn to work together for the common good and to contribute something positive.
In Albuquerque, New Mexico, at gang-plagued Garfield Middle School, Character Counts, a character education program that highlights six facets of character through a prescribed curriculum, was introduced with great success. In the first year, the number of recorded incidents of school violence declined from 91 to 26, according to Principal Louis Martinez.
After the Round Rocks School District in Austin, Texas, instituted character education as part of the curriculum, Jollyville School, an elementary school in the district with 576 students, reported a 40% percent drop in discipline referrals.
What is character education?
Character education is the teaching of core values. For example, the Character Counts program defines six teachable “pillars of character”: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship.
In his book, The Educated Child, William J. Bennett writes, “Good character education means cultivating virtues through formation of good habits.” According to Bennett, children need to learn through actions that honesty and compassion are good, and that deceit and cruelty are bad. He believes that adults in schools and parents should strive to be models of good character.
Character education is most effective when it is spread throughout regular school courses. In science, teachers can discuss the value of honesty in data, and in math, students can learn persistence by sticking with a problem until they get the right answer. History holds valuable lessons and heroes of character, such as the honesty of Abraham Lincoln, who walked three miles to return 6 cents.
During the 1960s and early 1970s, many teachers shied away from teaching about values because they did not feel it was their place to impose their own values on their students. But now they are seeing how including character education can transform a school community. In teaching the Giraffe Heroes Project, Ginn notes, “Values is an emotionally laden term. We avoid that discussion. The way we see it, we are teaching life skills, what you need to know to live in the world. We have to do this because it’s a cultural imperative that kids learn to get along.”
Effective models
Not all character education programs are effective, according to Bennett. Lofty discussions about gun control, abortion and same-sex marriages don’t teach children right from wrong or how to get along with others. Beware of school administrators, he writes, who simply post signs that say “Help others,” or “Thanks for being kind today” and think they have done their job. Effective programs engage children in hands-on activities where good character is emphasized throughout the school environment as well as through the curriculum.
Character education includes having high standards for students’ academic success, too. “When they are challenged to work up a mental sweat, they learn about virtues such as industry and persistence,” writes Bennett. “When students rarely get homework, when they aren’t held accountable for mistakes in spelling or grammar or arithmetic, when they can put forth little effort but still earn high grades, schools foster laziness, carelessness and irresponsibility.”
The parent’s role
Many teachers complain that parents are too lax and don’t provide enough discipline at home. Character education works best when schools and families work together. Here is what you as a parent can do to help:
• Ask your child’s teacher or principal whether the school has a character education program. If the school has a program, find out how well it is working and what you can do at home or as a volunteer at school to support the program. If the school doesn’t have a program, check the resources section below to learn about successful programs that you can help bring to your school. • Ask to see your child’s homework. Encourage your child to establish good work habits. Be firm in your expectations that your child complete his assignments neatly, thoroughly and on time. Set limits, such as “No television until the homework is complete.” Check to see that assignments get returned to your child, and that the teacher makes corrections and sets high standards. • Take action if your child is learning bad habits or shows a lack of discipline. Express your concerns about bad habits to your child’s teacher or bring up the topic at the next parent-teacher conference. • Demonstrate courage, respect and compassion through your actions. Talk to your child about good character, and model the behavior you want your child to have. Talk about other people you know who are examples of good character.

Spend time in a classroom setting and it becomes clear that guidance in character development is as important as subject-matter learning. Here are character education ideas and tips to help you get an A+ in cultivating a caring and safe place for students to learn.
What Character Education Is and Isn’t
Character Education Should:
Go beyond head-learning to encourage heart-learning.
Get kids to consider how their behavior and attitudes affect others.
Emphasize that everyone has the chance to be a “good guy.”
Strive for positive interactions. Shame doesn’t motivate in a lasting way.
Use kid-friendly language.
Character Education Shouldn’t:
Be about perfection. Students should see character growth throughout the year.
Come from only worksheets and videos. Children need to put ideas into practice (and see it modeled in their teachers and administrators).
Be about rule following. Character education should go beyond kids doing what they are told.
Overwhelm you with work. A lot of character education is talking and processing the choices we have to make every day.
Be confined to the classroom. It should penetrate the playground, lunchroom and home as well.
Organize a student club for positive behavior with an online sign up. SAMPLE.
Tips To Make Your Program Successful
Get Teacher Buy-in – A character program for kindness and respect will never work if your school culture is back-biting and negative. Character education starts with living examples from the top down.
Promote Best Practices – Teachers need to understand the importance of character education to help students feel safe and respected. Do some brushing up on best practices for teachers to help promote character in the classroom.
Keep it Contained – Find a program that doesn’t cut too much into instruction time or you will negate tip No. 1.
Keep it Simple – Words like empathy and resilience may not be familiar to small people, so be sure that character traits can be explained with familiar examples and real-life practice.
Tailor to Your Community – Different learning communities are as diverse as the real world, so make sure your character education speaks to the real issues that your students face.
Persevere – Don’t give up too soon. Good character programs, especially school-wide ones, often take several years for everyone to catch on.
Take Character Everywhere – The program needs be fully integrated into the school. Make it a language you speak on the playground, at field trips or any time you are interacting as a class, so kids see character matters wherever you go.
Keep it Real – Children with high-stress home environments often have physical needs that affect their emotional capabilities. Factor in real needs — like hunger or sleep deprivation — so your character education fits with real lives.
Involve Families – When possible, ask families to get on board with character education and start to use the common language of your program at home as well.
Retool Lesson Plans – For classroom character education, find new ways to use curriculum you already have in place to integrate character lessons. No need to recreate the wheel.

How to Evaluate and Update Your Program
Assess your program’s goals from the start: Do you want to have fewer conflicts in the classroom? More observation of certain character traits? Be realistic about what to expect.
Send home evaluations (or having them filled out during parent-teacher conferences) about character issues. This can help gather information on the effectiveness of a character education program.
Be careful about rewards. If students begin behaving just for rewards, it may be time to cut back on external motivators and get back to reflection on why we practice good character.
Bring in outside speakers or consider asking parents to come in to talk about different character issues. Connecting character back to the home is always a great addition to your program.
Don’t reinvent the wheel. You may have been teaching for 30 years, but these kids are in their grade for the first time, and it’s all new to them. If something isn’t broke, you don’t need to fix it.
Remember, whether you are just starting your character education program or it’s already cruising along, you are not alone. Educators recognize that a safe and healthy environment fosters learning. You can’t have one without the other.

Spend time in a classroom setting and it becomes clear that guidance in character development is as important as subject-matter learning. Here are character education ideas and tips to help you get an A+ in cultivating a caring and safe place for students to learn.
What Character Education Is and Isn’t
Character Education Should:
Go beyond head-learning to encourage heart-learning.
Get kids to consider how their behavior and attitudes affect others.
Emphasize that everyone has the chance to be a “good guy.”
Strive for positive interactions. Shame doesn’t motivate in a lasting way.
Use kid-friendly language.
Character Education Shouldn’t:
Be about perfection. Students should see character growth throughout the year.
Come from only worksheets and videos. Children need to put ideas into practice (and see it modeled in their teachers and administrators).
Be about rule following. Character education should go beyond kids doing what they are told.
Overwhelm you with work. A lot of character education is talking and processing the choices we have to make every day.
Be confined to the classroom. It should penetrate the playground, lunchroom and home as well.

Tips To Make Your Program Successful
Get Teacher Buy-in – A character program for kindness and respect will never work if your school culture is back-biting and negative. Character education starts with living examples from the top down.
Promote Best Practices – Teachers need to understand the importance of character education to help students feel safe and respected. Do some brushing up on best practices for teachers to help promote character in the classroom.
Keep it Contained – Find a program that doesn’t cut too much into instruction time or you will negate tip No. 1.
Keep it Simple – Words like empathy and resilience may not be familiar to small people, so be sure that character traits can be explained with familiar examples and real-life practice.
Tailor to Your Community – Different learning communities are as diverse as the real world, so make sure your character education speaks to the real issues that your students face.
Persevere – Don’t give up too soon. Good character programs, especially school-wide ones, often take several years for everyone to catch on.
Take Character Everywhere – The program needs be fully integrated into the school. Make it a language you speak on the playground, at field trips or any time you are interacting as a class, so kids see character matters wherever you go.
Keep it Real – Children with high-stress home environments often have physical needs that affect their emotional capabilities. Factor in real needs — like hunger or sleep deprivation — so your character education fits with real lives.
Involve Families – When possible, ask families to get on board with character education and start to use the common language of your program at home as well.
Retool Lesson Plans – For classroom character education, find new ways to use curriculum you already have in place to integrate character lessons. No need to recreate the wheel.

Education of character
As noted, character is formed, developed and changed in the practical activity of a person, reflects the conditions and way of life.
1 Education of a child’s character
2 Development of character
3 Fundamentals of education of character
4 Conditions for education of character
Already at preschool age, the first contours of character are outlined, a habitual way of behavior, certain attitudes to reality begin to take shape. Manifestations of collectivism, perseverance, endurance, courage in preschool age are formed primarily in the game, especially in collective plot games with rules. Of great importance are the simplest types of labor activity available to a preschooler. By performing some simple duties, the child learns to respect and love work, to feel responsibility for the task assigned.
Under the influence of the requirements of parents and educators, their personal example, the child gradually develops concepts of what is possible and what is not, and this begins to determine his behavior, lays the foundations for a sense of duty, discipline, endurance; The child learns to evaluate his own behavior.
Development of character
Entering school begins a new stage of character formation. For the first time, the child is faced with a series of strict rules and school duties that determine all his behavior at school, at home, in public places. These rules and duties develop the student’s organization, systematicity, purposefulness, perseverance, accuracy, discipline, diligence. An exceptionally important role in the formation of character is played by the school team. At school, the child enters into new relationships with teachers, into relationships of community and mutual assistance with comrades. He develops a consciousness of duty and responsibility to the collective of his class, school, a sense of camaraderie, collectivism.
Character traits develop especially intensively in adolescents. A teenager, to a much greater extent than a younger schoolchild, participates in the life of adults, higher demands are placed on him. A teenager in his educational and social activities is already much more guided by the motives of public order – a sense of duty and responsibility to the team, the desire to maintain the honor of the school, detachment, class.
Upbringing has a decisive influence on the character of a child. There are no children whose character could not be re-educated and who could not be instilled with certain positive qualities, eliminating even the negative traits that seem to have already taken root in them.
Fundamentals of character education
A necessary condition for character education is the formation of a worldview, beliefs and ideals. The worldview determines the direction of a person, his life goals, aspirations, moral attitudes follow from the worldview, by which people are guided in their actions.
The task of forming a worldview, beliefs should be solved in unity with the education of certain forms of behavior, in which the system of human relations to reality could be embodied. Therefore, in order to nurture socially valuable character traits, it is necessary to organize the child’s play, educational, and labor activities in such a way that he can accumulate experience in correct behavior.
In the process of character formation, it is necessary to reinforce not only a certain form of behavior, but also the corresponding motive for this behavior, to put children in such conditions that their practical activities correspond to their ideological education, so that they apply the acquired principles of behavior in practice. A. S. Makarenko emphasized that it is very important to constantly exercise children in the right act, to organize a kind of “gymnastics of behavior”, to consolidate the correct forms of behavior.
Conditions for the education of character
If the conditions in which a child lived and acted did not require him, for example, to display restraint or initiative, then the corresponding character traits would not be developed in him, no matter how high moral ideas were instilled in him verbally. It is impossible to educate a courageous person if you do not put him in such conditions when he could and should have shown courage. An education that eliminates all the difficulties in the life of a child can never create a strong character.
Labor is the most important means of educating character. In serious and socially significant work, connected with overcoming difficulties, the best character traits are brought up – purposefulness, collectivism, perseverance.
Literature and art influence the education of character. In books, films, performances, examples of how a person feels and acts are given, the features of his character are clearly outlined. The images of literary heroes and their behavior often serve as a kind of model for the child, with which he compares his behavior.
What parents do often affects a child’s life more than what they say. How a parent relates to work, how he follows social norms of behavior, whether he controls himself and his feelings, what is the style of his work – all this is of great importance for educating the character of children. If a parent is persistent in the fight against difficulties, if he firmly fulfills his obligations, it is easier for him to achieve the same in his pupils, who will strive to develop the same traits in themselves. Irritability, incontinence, rudeness, passivity, indiscretion of the parent will have a negative impact on the child.
Ethical or moral conversations occupy a significant place. Their goal is to form correct moral ideas and concepts in children. All this is all the more necessary because some children have wrong ideas, prejudices and delusions in the field of moral ideas (false understanding of friendship and fellowship, courage, perseverance, etc.). At an older age, one of the ways of character formation is self-education.
Especially important is the need for an individual approach to character development. An individual approach requires the selection and implementation of such educational activities that would correspond to the characteristics of the child’s personality and the state in which he is currently located. One should be given a stern warning, another should be mildly scolded, and the third should be given a reproachful look. One must be praised in order to raise his faith in his own strength; in relation to another, this should not be done, so as not to lead him to self-conceit, arrogance.
It is absolutely necessary to take into account the motives of actions, since differences in motives determine differences in educational measures that must be carried out in response to a particular act of the child. An individual approach requires reliance on the positive that each child already has in the area of his interests, attitudes towards people, to certain types of activity, etc. By developing the already existing valuable traits in every possible way, encouraging positive actions, the parent can more easily overcome negative traits character in children.
In order to educate a child’s character taking into account his individual characteristics, you should know them well, that is, study his personality comprehensively and deeply. Studying a child is a relatively lengthy process. It is necessary to keep brief records of observations, collecting various materials about the activities and behavior of the child, about his attitude to work, to the people around him, to his comrades, to himself. Only a good knowledge of the child will make it possible to outline individual measures for his further education or re-education and will lead to the desired results.
Formation of character in children and ways of its upbringing
As noted, character is formed, developed and changed in the practical activity of a person, reflects the conditions and way of his life.
The formation of character begins in early childhood. Already at preschool age, the first contours of character are outlined, a habitual way of behavior, certain attitudes to reality begin to take shape.

What are the ways of developing character?
A necessary condition for the education of character is the formation of a worldview, beliefs, and ideals.

The task of forming a worldview, beliefs should be solved in unity with the education of certain forms of behavior, in which the system of human relations to reality could be embodied.

Labor is the most important means of educating character. In serious and socially significant work, connected with overcoming difficulties, the best character traits are brought up – purposefulness, collectivism, perseverance. The most important condition for the correct organization of educational activities is the close coordination of the educational work of the school with the corresponding influences of the family.
Literature and art influence the education of character. The images of literary heroes and their behavior often serve as a kind of model for the student, with which he compares his behavior.
The education of character is also influenced by the personal example of the educator, be it parents or teachers. What caregivers do often has a far greater impact on a child’s life than what they tell them. How a teacher relates to work, how he follows social norms of behavior, whether he controls himself and his feelings, what is the style of his work – all this is of great importance for educating the character of children.
An important role in the formation of character is played by the living word of the teacher, educator, with which he addresses the child. A significant place is occupied, in particular, by ethical or moral conversations. Their goal is to form the correct moral ideas and concepts in children. For older students, one of the ways of character formation is self-education. However, even in younger schoolchildren, the teacher should cultivate the desire to get rid of certain shortcomings, undesirable habits, and develop useful habits. The need for an individual approach in character education is especially important.
An individual approach requires the selection and implementation of such educational activities that would correspond to the characteristics of the student’s personality and the state in which he is currently located.
It is absolutely necessary to take into account the motives of actions, since differences in motives determine the differences in educational measures that must be carried out by the teacher in response to a particular act of the student.

In order to educate the character of a student taking into account his individual characteristics, one should know them well, that is, study the student’s individuality comprehensively and deeply.
KinderCare Learning: 5 things to know about the childcare center operator
KinderCare Leaning Companies Inc. is working toward a public debut, but the Oregon-based provider of childcare and early childcare education will have to wait as its initial public offering was postponed because of “regulatory delays.”
The Oregon-based provider of childcare and early childcare education was expected to raise about $460.0 million and be valued at nearly $3 billion, as its initial public offering was expected to price this week.
“Throughout our pursuit of an initial public offering (IPO), we’ve received healthy interest from investors and positive feedback on KinderCare’s potential. Unfortunately, due to regulatory delays outside of our control we have decided to postpone our IPO,” the company said in a statement emailed overnight. “This is a true disappointment, as the IPO was going to allow us to grow faster and serve more hard-working families while furthering our mission to provide future generations with confidence for life. ”
The company did not say when it expected the “delays” to be resolved.
The 52-year old company has a three-pronged approach to the childcare market, through its KinderCare Learnings Centers (KCLC), KinderCare Education at Work (KCE) and Champions businesses.
The company’s was looking to go public at a time when employers are looking for ways to attract employees in a tight labor market in a post-COVID environment. An estimated nearly three million women have left the workforce, with the lack of access to childcare noted by many as a key factor, the company said. And the U.S. government has provided more than $50 billion of support for the early childhood education (ECE) market to help ease that burden.
Investors were upbeat about the overall market environment for IPOs, as the Renaissance IPO exchange-traded fund
IPO,
+2.49%
has rallied 8.6% over the past three months through Thursday, while the S&P 500 index
SPX,
+0. 59%
has gained 6.8% over the same time.
The company, known as KC Holdco, LLL before going public, said last week in an amended S-1 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it was looking to 25.78 million shares in the IPO, which is expected to price between $18 and $21 a share.
With 140.88 million shares expected to be outstanding after the IPO, the company could have been valued at up to $2.96 billion if the IPO prices at the top of the expected range.
If underwriters exercised all of the options to buy up to an additional 3.87 million shares to cover overallotments, the company said it could have raised up to $622.5 million.
The company had planned to use the proceeds to repay $56.3 million of outstanding First Lien Notes, repay all $210.0 million of the loans outstanding under the Second Lien Facility, repay $151.9 million of loans outstanding under the First Lien Term Loan Facility, redeem $42.6 million of the shares of common stock received by members of management from vested Class B shares of KC Parent LLC and pay fees and expenses associated with the IPO.
Any money left would have been used for “general corporate purposes,” a phrase used by companies that could mean anything from administrative expenses to mergers and acquisitions.
The stock was expected to list on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “KLC.”
KLC
The company listed 12 underwriters of the IPO, led by Barclays, Morgan Stanley and Jefferies.
Here are five things to know about KinderCare and its target market before the stock becomes available to the public.
The company has turned profitable this year
The company swung to net income of $46.4 million during the nine months ended Oct. 3, 2021, from a loss of $98.5 million during the same period a year ago. Revenue rose 35.2% to $1.33 billion, while cost of services increased just 18.6%.
In pre-pandemic 2019, the company lost $29.1 million and recorded revenue of $1.88 billion, after a loss of $36.4 million on revenue of $1.68 billion in 2018.
Average weekly ECE full-time enrollments (FTEs), which is a measure of the number of full-time children enrolled and charged tuition weekly in KinderCare’s centers, was 119,681 and ECE same-center occupancy was 62.0% during the nine months ended Oct. 2, compared with ECE FTEs of 87,095 and ECE same-center occupancy of 44.9% in the same period a year ago.
In 2019, ECE FTEs were 136,095, up from 125,141 in 2018, while same-center occupancy improved to 70.3% from 69.1%.
The company has increased the amount of cash and cash equivalents on its balance sheet to $152.5 million as of Oct. 2, 2021 from $53.2 million at the end of 2020, while working capital swung to positive $13.0 million from negative $61.8 million.
The company had a total of 2,129 centers and sites operating as of Oct. 2, 2021, including 1,490 early childhood education centers, for children ranging from 6 weeks to 12 years old, and 639 before- and after-school sites. That shows 16.0% growth in total centers and sites in the past year, including a 1. 2% increase in early childhood education centers and a 76.0% rise in before- and after-school sites.
KinderCare has three “go-to-market” business lines.
KCLC is the U.S.’s largest private provider of early childhood education centers by center capacity, and represented 79.2% of the company’s 2020 revenue, up from 77.2% in 2019. Most of the KCLC centers are accredited, and most of the unaccredited centers are newer.
KCE is a provider of employer-sponsored childcare programs, representing 17.8% of 2020 revenue, down from 18.1% in 2019. The company currently serves more than 600 employers, through its 72 onsite centers as of Oct. 2 and by allowing access to its KinderCare center network.
Champion is a provider of outsourced before- and after-school programs, in which the KinderCare provides staff, teachers and curriculum onsite at schools. With contracts for more than 650 sites as of Oct. 2, Champions represented 3.0% of 2020 revenue, down from 4. 7% in 2019.
KinderCare’s target market
The company competes in the early childhood education (ECE) and childcare services market, which it estimates is made up of 17.5 million workers, or 20% of the American workforce, who rely on childcare every day.
Private expenditures on education-focused care for children zero to five years old was about $15.2 billion in 2019, according to the Bureau of Economic Research, with annual enrollments of about 2.5 million children. Meanwhile, the total spending on childcare was about $42 billion in the U.S. in 2018, according to the Consumer Expenditure Survey.
And after spending on childcare grew at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7% from 2012 to 2019, according to the Bureau of Economic Research, KinderCare estimates that the CAGR will increase to 6.4% between 2021 and 2026, even when excluding any potential impact from government stimulus.
The employee-sponsored ECE market was a small part of the overall ECE market, with expenditures of about $3 billion in 2019.
And as of 2019, 68% of children under the age of six were in dual income households, up from 65% in 2015, according to National Kids Count. Among the millennial generation, more than 80% cite work-life integration, such as access to childcare, as the most important factor in job selection, according to a Forbes article published last year.
At the same time, more than 80% of parents with children under the age of five reported challenges in finding quality, affordable childcare, according to the Affordable Child Care and Early Learning for All Families report published in 2018.
“Evolving work styles are driving a preference for flexible ECE solutions with care options both onsite at corporate offices and in the communities in which employees live,” the company said in its IPO filing.
The government is helping fuel growth in the childcare market
The ECE market has gotten more than $50 billion worth of government support in the wake of COVID. That includes:
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act of March 2020 provided $3.5 billion in stimulus funding for childcare assistance.
The Consolidated Appropriations Act (CAA) of December 2020 included $10 billion for the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) to supplement state funds to support childcare needs.
The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) of March 2021 included $15 billion in funding for the CCDBG and an additional $24 billion for a COVID-19 childcare relief and stabilization fund.
The ARPA provides monthly child tax credit payments of $300 for each child under six years old and of $250 for each child ages six through 17.
Update of COVID-19 impact
In March 2020, the company temporarily closed 1,074 centers and 547 before- and after-school sites, as part of government-mandated closures to stop the spread of COVID-19. It kept more the 420 centers open to provide childcare for first responders, healthcare providers and for people working in essential services.
The company was forced to furlough employees, reduce the salaries of the executive team and negotiate rent and benefit holidays to manage costs and liquidity.
During the second half of 2020, the company reopened 1,021 centers and 320 before- and after-school sites, brought back furloughed employees and reinstated salaries to pre-pandemic levels.
Enrollment has increased “significantly” since then. For the three months ended Oct. 2, same-center occupancy increased to 64%, representing 90% of occupancy just before the COVID-19 pandemic. That compares with the industry average of 79% of pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels, the company said.
Same-center occupancy rates have risen since the Q2 2020 low

kids in city kindergartens. In 2022, it is planned to open additional places in different age categories. Right now, kindergartens are being completed for the academic year, which will begin on September 1.
“For the next academic year, the total number of places from one to seven years will be almost 23,000,” said Natalia Vedernikova, head of the preschool education department of the city administration. – Compared to last year, we can say that this number has remained approximately at the same level (23,459 places were opened last year – Ed. ). For children under three years old, the number of places will be doubled.
So, for kids from one to one and a half years old in 2022, 48 places will be opened (and there were only 15 in one kindergarten in the Zheleznodorozhny district), for children from one and a half to two years old, the number of places has quadrupled: from 300 to 1200.
— The most powerful breakthrough is the number of places for children from two to three years old, in this segment we will have 11,000 children in full-time groups for preschool education programs, — explained Natalia Vedernikova. – I think that there is no need to worry, all children aged three to seven years will be provided with places in kindergartens. About 7 thousand places are provided for children from three to four years old, this fully covers the needs of children who are currently registered.
It should be noted that 17,000 children from one and a half to three years old are on the waiting list for kindergarten, only 12,006 of them will get a place. In some gardens, reserve places are provided. Recently, an electronic service for transferring a child to another kindergarten has been launched on the City Hall website. According to the mayor’s office, 1,441 children were placed with its help. In total, 84,000 children attend kindergarten in Yekaterinburg at the moment, of which 4,000 are children with special needs.
The head of one of the kindergartens told how the safety of children is organized. It turned out that pensioners work as guards in kindergartens and they don’t even have weapons.
And in Akademichesky district, parents are sounding the alarm because there were not enough places for first-graders in schools.
