Child Care FAQs
The national typical hourly rate in 2022 is $20. 00 per hour for nannies and $17.50 for babysitters. Rates can vary based on the child care provider’s experience, certifications, employment status, and travel expenses. When calculating the cost of child care, you should also account for the number of children they’ll care for and additional responsibilities like household tasks or homework help. Learn more about how to set competitive rates for attracting the best babysitters.
The best way to find child care near you is to post a job detailing your needs on Sittercity, which will be shared with our community of available babysitters and nannies. We’ll notify you when child care providers apply to your job, and from there you can proceed with interviews, background checks, and reference checks so you can find the perfect fit for your family.
You can find experienced and passionate child care providers near you to provide the best care for your child, either in-home or virtually. Child care providers can help families with managing strict schedules, transportation to activities, homework help, last-minute coverage, date nights, and more. Whether you’re looking for full-time, part-time, live-in, or temporary care, you can count on Sittercity for finding passionate and experienced child care providers.
Families find trustworthy child care providers on Sittercity who are passionate about providing safe and enriching care for their children. Many providers report they are First Aid and CPR certified to provide the best care for your family. Babysitters and nannies have the option to complete regular background checks, and you can easily request a recent background check if they don’t have one or it is not recent. Families can also request to see professional references!
Our dedicated team also champions safety across our platform every day. Child care providers go through an identity verification process Berbix when registering an account. Some additional safety measures include Family Watchdog screening, babysitter and nanny reviews, and secure messaging.
Nannies and babysitters share the same primary responsibility of providing safe and enriching care for your child, but there are a few differences between them. Nannies are more commonly associated with regular work, whether full or part-time, offering daily or consistent care to a particular family. There are also several different types of nannies, including au pairs, house managers, doulas, live-in, and overnight nannies.
Babysitters, on the other hand, are typically hired for irregular or occasional work, either full or part-time. If you’re looking for last-minute care for date night, or the occasional few hours after school, a babysitter is a great best option.
Identifying the type and frequency of child care you’ll need is the best way to decide whether a babysitter or nanny is a better fit for your family.
Child care providers on Sittercity love providing enriching experiences for your children, and sharing their passions with them. They’re happy to participate in outdoor activities like sports, or indoor activities like music, baking, tutoring help, and art. Wherever your child’s interests lie, child care providers on Sittercity can engage them in a nurturing way.

Where to go with children in Orlando? – Cheaptrip – Carpe Diem
City-garden, city-park with lakes, giant crowns and thousands of squirrels collecting crumbs from tables of outdoor cafes. Orlando grows and develops at a fantastic, cartoonish pace, which is not surprising: Walt Disney, the “godfather” of Orlando, turned a rather ordinary town in sunny Florida into a grandiose world entertainment center. Now it is the most visited city in the world by tourists (more than 50 million people come here every year) and “the best family vacation center in North America.” More than 80 parks, rides and shows for all ages and fantasies in fairyland.
Walt Disney World – the largest Disneyland in the world, it combines four themed areas and two water parks Disney’s Blizzard Beach and Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon.
Magic Kingdom is the first zone of The Walt Disney World Resort and the world’s most visited amusement park with roller coasters, children’s attractions, and of course, the famous haunted castle that will scare even an adult. Roller coaster in absolute darkness (“Space Mountain” and “Thunder Mountain” – in trolleys along the destroyed mine). Favorite rides are Pirates of the Caribbean and Tropical River Trip.
Epcot (Epcot Center), the second zone of the park, a kind of model of the society of the future. There are two thematic parts here: “Showcase of the World” and “World of the Future” – the most interesting thing on planet Earth now and models of fantastic projects, from a time machine to a spaceship. The latest scientific achievements, technologies and a huge model of the world with an area of 11,000 hectares. Epcot’s most famous attraction is the “Spaceship Earth”: a giant ball that contains 18 floors and an illusion of a time machine inside.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios , an area dedicated to the golden age of Hollywood, opened to the first visitors on May 1, 1989. Here you can travel back to the atmosphere of the film sets of the 30s and 40s. XX century and lift the veil of secrecy of film production. The symbol of this part of the park was the huge Mickey Wizard Hat from the cartoon “Fantasy”, which was installed during the celebration of “100 Years of Magic” in 2001.
AnimalKingdom safari park is the most modern and mega-sophisticated of Disney parks – Africa and Asia, lions and crocodiles, “Insect World” and the famous “Dinoland” (Dinosaur Institute). Here you can see not only those animals that exist on the planet now (just a zoo), but also those that lived in antiquity (“Dinopark”), and even those that exist only in the imagination. To do this, you will have to climb into the castle of treasures to the dragon, and get lost in the labyrinth of the Unicorn. Maharaja’s Jungle Tour is an adventure for those who want to raft down a mountain river and see a live tiger emerge from the thicket.
Tyhoon Lagoon – Typhoon Lagoon, the name says it all. The world’s largest artificial waves, a tropical downpour in the jungle, and in the middle of the park is almost a hundred-meter mountain with nine water slides.
And more calm and cozy Blizzard Beach – a water park with all kinds of water slides, rivers, pipes, waterfalls in the rainforest. A magical story about a winter blizzard that swept across Florida, but then everything melted and turned into a world of water activities: snow slides, ski jumps became slides that are considered the highest and fastest in the world. 19waterways, the speed of which can reach 97 km / h, and a huge pool with artificial waves.
And in Universal Studio , you can fly in a time machine from Back to the Future or fight cyborgs on the Terminator ride, shoot aliens with a laser rifle in Men in Black, and survive the end of the world in « earthquakes.” The park’s most favorite rides for children are Shrek and Mummy.
The most terrible attraction, perhaps: “Earthquake in the subway” – a complete illusion of tremors, falling walls of the tunnel, screams and darkness. “Jaws” with a giant shark attack is also impressive. In addition, there are a lot of attractions that immerse you in the atmosphere of films. The little ones can be led along Shrek – it’s not scary at all, but fun. In the same Universal Park there are entire amusement islands. Everything is life-size: both dinosaurs and Hogwarts School. Islands of Adventure is the world of the most desperate rollercoasters, pirates and superheroes. And the best of the attractions of this park is considered “Jurassic Park”.
MGMStudio is all about cinema. Be a stuntman, find out what movie cities, mountains and oceans are made of, fall from a skyscraper, not get burned in a fire and stay dry in the water.
And of course Sea World is a huge oceanarium – you can’t count the aquariums, and a giant game science center where you can not only see thousands of marine life (hello, fish, big and small), but also learn a lot of amazing things about underwater world. At Sea World, we watch shows with killer whales, dolphins, sea cows, seals and sea lions, learn everything about the life of Antarctica and tropical seas, and, of course, there is an unimaginable number of water attractions.
Wet’n Wild is the world’s most popular water park, and even has a tsunami pool: three 520-meter mega-spinning water tube slides at America’s largest water park, Wet’N’Wild. In addition to this pipe, there are several dozen shorter pipes. Extreme to choose from: shakes, throws, drowns, twirls, drops. In Seaworld Park, you can not only watch how whales and dolphins give circus performances, but also feed these marine animals yourself and even touch the rays with your hands.
Islands of Adventure is a new, unique park with the most desperate rollercoasters, breathtaking virtual reality attractions, pirates, superheroes (Superman, Hulk, Spiderman) and characters from the Tales of 1001 Nights. The best attraction of this park is Jurassic Park –
We walk around Orlando and its environs:
In the evening – on Church Street. Discos, bars, western shows, cabarets, carriage rides and horror shows at night. Zombies, vampires, Freddy Krueger and right next to it – Indians and cowboys, the 1001 Nights show and jousting tournaments. Sleep during the day and dive into the nightlife until dawn, because this street has everything you can think of.
Kennedy Space Center – Science and entertainment center at the NASA spaceport at Cape Canaveral, an hour’s drive from the city (you can stop here on your way to Miami). There are guided tours to the launch pads and to the Space Hall of Fame. We look at American space rockets and shuttles, tubes with space breakfasts and dinners, movies about space and everyday life of astronauts.
Busch Gardens, the park of the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Company, is very much loved by Americans. Here are the steepest slides: the famous Sheikra rocoster 61 meters high with a difference of 90 degrees and Montu is one of the tallest inverted coasters in the world, where you can ride the reverse and vertical loops at a speed that will make you squeal at the top of your voice. This park is also called the “Black Continent” because the main theme is Africa and safari. We observe the life of lions, tigers, hyenas, hippos, rhinos and other animals, we go to visit chimpanzees and gorillas. In the park, you can ride a 19th-century train, see all the most beautiful of the architectural treasures of Africa at once, get wet to the skin and walk along the Jungala rope bridges, feeling like in the jungle.

What travelers say
2022
Orlando property is great! I spent the whole day there at the spa while my husband was in meetings. Worked out in their well equipped gym, cleaned the locker room which had extra soaps, salts and lotions, used the sauna and spa… BUT, the absolute best part of my experience there was the massage I got from Steven Salters. I have been attending annual meetings there with my husband for five years and have been receiving massages from Stephen Salters for most of those five years. I come home and get monthly massages from a local therapist… But I have to admit that the best ones I get from him. And this is the absolute truth, God help me! I swear. I can’t wait to return next year.
“Amazing”
Sept. 2022
Let’s face it. When you think of The Ritz-Carlton, you think of luxury, humble and attentive staff, great amenities and top notch relaxation. The spa is no different. I come back again and again, never leave dissatisfied. I recently found myself in a mean mood and bought a $50 introductory massage from a chain of massage parlors and I was instantly and terribly disappointed. To compensate for my back, my wife bought a spa day and a massage for my birthday. I returned to the Ritz-Carlton Spa with my tail between my legs and was immediately greeted by the staff. After spending the morning by the pool and at the indoor spa, spoiled by the attentions of JP and Luis, I was escorted and introduced to my massage therapist, Tracey, whom I recognized immediately. I was so excited for my therapy session. Tracy took the time (without eating during the massage, of course) to listen to my complaints and examine my injuries. She gave good advice and told me what I can do to help with my chronic back pain. I left with a load on my shoulders. I guess I’m an R-C customer for life, no regrets.

5 Star Massage – Great Spa Facility
Sept. 2022
The facility in Orlando is great! I spent the entire day there at the spa, while my husband was in meetings. Worked out in their well equipped gym, cleaned up in the locker room area, that had additional soaps, salts and, lotions, took advantage of the sauna and spas…BUT, the absolute best part of my experience there was the massage that I got from STEVEN SALTERS. I have been attending annual meetings with my husband there for five years and have been getting massages from Steven Salters most of those 5 years. I come home and get monthly massages from a therapist I use here locally …. But I have to admit, that the very best ones I get ever, are the ones I get from him. And this is the absolute truth, so help me god! I wear. I can’t wait to go back next year.

Amazing
Sept. 2022
Let’s face it. When you think “The Ritz-Carlton,” you think of luxury, humble and attentive staff, beautiful amenities, and relaxation of the highest caliber. The Spa is no different. I have found myself returning time and time again, never leaving dissatisfied. Recently, I found myself in a stingy mood, and purchased a $50 introduction massage at a massage chain, and I was instantly and miserably disappointed. In an effort to make it up to my back, my wife purchased a spa day and massage for my birthday. I returned to the Ritz-Carlton Spa with my tail between my legs, and was immediately welcomed back by the staff. After spending the morning at the pool side and indoor spa, spoiled by J.P. and Luis’s attentiveness, I was escorted and introduced to my massage specialist for the day, Tracy, who I immediately recognized. I was so excited for my therapy session. Tracy took her time (without eating into massage time of course) to listen to my complaints, and to examine my injuries. She gave knowledgeable advice, and educated me on things I can do to help with my chronic back pain. I walked out with a weight off my shoulders. I guess I’m a R-C client for life, without regret.

Spa and service not the usual excellence and wonderfulness
June 2022
I am a Florida resident and I have been going to the Ritz Carlton Spa for years. I usually meet up with a friend for an occasion, but I have also gone solo and enjoyed a pedicure and/or facial service. I love that the spa is a separate entity from the hotel. It is a world unto itself. The staff is upbeat and warm and very polite. The cafe consistently serves very fresh and delicious food. There is also a Florida resident discount of 15% that is a nice perk. Yesterday, I met up with a friend to spend some time together. We have met up there many times before. We booked pedicures. Each and every pedicure that I have received in the past at this spa has been exemplary. Yesterday was a different story. Although the nail technician was warm and attentive and had a wonderful personality, my pedicure is not as expected and substandard. I kept asking her not to cut my toenails too short several times and I came home with very short toenails. One is actually crooked. I did not realize that my toes did not look good until I actually got home. Additionally, the massage part of the pedicure was too short and almost nonexistent. The spa really needs to update some areas especially the dressing rooms. They are looking very worn out and shabby. The waiting area couches and rug and curtains are also looking worn out and are in need of updating. And reception always asks if I would like to be escorted up to the second floor to the spa area and they did not ask this time. My experience was not the usual excellence or wonderfulness that I have experienced in the past. The quality appeared to be slipping and I am hoping that this was just an off day for them and shall not be a prediction of the quality of my next visit.

This could not have been a more luxurious and relaxing experience. All of the staff members from the front desk to the massage therapist to the attendants to the poolside servers were so kind, welcoming and attentive. My massage was wonderful. The massage therapist put two different oils on my hands so I could smell them and choose the scent I wanted for my massage, I thought that was a nice touch. The food from the cafe was delicious (I highly recommended the passion fruit Panna Cotta). There are plenty of complimentary refreshments and snacks at the spa, and the locker rooms and facilities were impeccable. The best part was the access to the beautiful adult only pool area. I loved that they have an attendant who sets up your chair for you. I’ll definitely be coming back.

A must!!! Amazing!!!
Nov. 2021 • With friends
Amazing spa day!! I took my mom for a spa day and was not disappointed. We have been to many spas in the area and by far this one is our favorite. The staff was great. They really go out of their way to make you feel welcomed and make sure you have everything you need. The ladies room attendants were awesome. So friendly and we’re always there seeing if you needed anything. The facilities were 7 star. I loved how everything was so close. The pool and restaurant were right outside the spa. The pool attendant was also amazing making sure you had towels and water and sunscreen. The cafe was delicious with a great wait staff. Jose was our server and was super friendly. Everyone really made sure you enjoyed your day. I had Sherry for a full body message and she was outstanding. Parking is valet but it was free. The hotel itself was beautiful along with the grounds. I can’t wait to go back.

Perfect!
June 2021
My husband, cousin and I had services here on the same day. Our massages were amazing, and the facility was both tranquil and luxurious. It is the customer service at this facility though that I cannot stop raving about. I had an unfortunate incident happen at the pool where I lost my Tiffany ring. Monetary value aside, this ring was of great sentimental value to me as it was the first gift my husband bought for me. I was not able to find the ring, and reported it to guest services. I was so heartbroken over not finding it. I drew them a picture of the ring, and gave them my contact information on the off chance someone at the spa were to find it. 2 days after the incident, we were back home in Seattle, when I received a personal call from Brittany to inform me that the ring was in fact found at the cafe next to the spa. She directed me to security (Cheobrean) , who had it shipped to me. I couldn’t be happy. I truly appreciate their diligence and care. I will be back to visit and get massages/facials when I am in the area.

Disappointing spa retreat
May 2021 • For two
Beautiful facility but services did not live up to reputation. My husband received an excellent hot stone massage. Unfortunately other services were provided by a therapist who was not engaged and performed facial massage despite being told not to. management was unresponsive.
We expected more from the Ritz

“Book” Ballet on a bold topic – DW – 24.
03.2021

Culture
Gender reassignment, self-identification, modernism and poetry – and all this on the stage of the Bolshoi Theater, which in the era of a pandemic on March 24 presents the world premiere of a performance by a German choreographer.
“Orlando” is a story about a young English aristocrat, a poet who does not age and lives for three and a half centuries, starting from the era of Queen Elizabeth I and ending with the first half of the 20th century. He is trying to find his “I”, to understand his true individuality. At some point, he falls asleep and is reborn. Orlando turns from a man into a woman.
However, the gender issue and the issue of gender reassignment are not in the first place, says the production director of the performance Christian Spuck, a famous German choreographer who has been heading the Zurich Ballet company for ten years now. According to Shpuk, he also does not think that the Orlando ballet is a provocation.
“We have a tasteful and poetic attitude to the fact that, for example, a man represents the queen or that the role of Orlando is played by a woman. We discussed all this in advance and very carefully with the Bolshoi Theater, because we did not want to offend anyone”, – added the choreographer in a conversation with DW correspondent.
An unusual novel by Virginia Woolf
Orlando, staged at the New Stage of the Bolshoi Theatre, is a “bookish” ballet based on the modernist novel of the same name by the famous British writer Virginia Woolf, which was published on 1928 year. In the second half of the 20th century, Woolf became one of the symbols of feminism.
Christian Spuck Photo: DW
“I was very inspired by this book, which I love very much. It is full of reflections, both poetic and philosophical,” said choreographer Christian Spuck, talking about the novel. He sees the main idea of the writer that it is not so important for her hero Orlando inside that his gender is changing – society itself is changing its attitude towards him, the external view of him is changing, the hero himself continues to live and exist in exactly the same way as before . The choreographer added that the Orlando novel is rich in “voluminous, expressive images. The narrative is more like a dream than reality.”
Orlando and the prima ballerina
It was the Bolshoi Theater that approached the German choreographer with an offer to stage the play on its stage. One of the most important moments for Christian Spuck at the stage of preparation was the choice of the performer of the part of Orlando. Now five ballerinas are rehearsing this part at once. At the pre-premiere screening for journalists, the role of the young poet was performed by the prima ballerina of the Bolshoi Theater Olga Smirnova. She danced the part of the woman in pointe shoes, the men – without.

According to Smirnova, Virginia Woolf’s novel was at first incomprehensible to her. “And here we have been in some kind of search for a very long time, how to most clearly convey this story in order to look natural. Because the choreographer said that despite the fact that this is a young man, you must be yourself,” the prima shared her thoughts. ballerina. She also added that Christian Shpuk suggested choreography to the artists of the Bolshoi Theater so that they would feel natural as dramatic actors. As a result, according to Smirnova, the performance turned out, where there are no tricks, fouettes, all that the audience expects when they go to the ballet.
Olga Smirnova Photo: DW
However, in “Orlando” there is a story and characters in which the audience can recognize themselves, the prima ballerina noted. “This performance is a revelation, including for me. The final stage is important in it, the stage stage, when you understand in what space this choreography exists, when you see the costumes. This is a very atmospheric performance. Of course, we tried to find some movements to make Orlando look more masculine, but it was not an end in itself. The goal was naturalness, “added Olga Smirnova.
Pandemic and love for the Bolshoi
The world premiere of the ballet “Orlando” at the Bolshoi on March 24 takes place at a time when theaters in many countries are closed due to the coronavirus pandemic. And the famous theater itself can now take only 50 percent of the visitors. For both the troupe and Christian Spuck, working on the premiere during the epidemic was a real challenge. So, a German choreographer, having arrived in Moscow from Zurich to work on a ballet, contracted a coronavirus and spent three weeks in self-isolation in a hotel room. Despite the fact that he now has immunity, Shpuk still wears a protective mask and still maintains a social distance with colleagues from the Bolshoi Theater.
Christian Spuck told DW that it was extremely comfortable and pleasant for him to work with all members of the Bolshoi Theater troupe, which he treats with the greatest respect.

What Questions Should I Ask a Daycare Provider?
What ages does Bright Horizons in Chicago serve in its daycare program?
Most of our Chicago child care centers serve children ages six weeks to six years. Bright Horizons is more than daycare. We have programs with developmentally appropriate curriculum for infants, toddler, preschool and pre-K.
I’ve looked at other daycares in Chicagoland with long waitlists. What if I want to enroll at a Chicago Bright Horizons center but space is not available?
You can select and register with up to three Bright Horizons child care locations, including the center in which you are most interested. By registering, you are confirming interest in all three centers. Once registered, we will add you to our waitlist and offer you a space as soon as one becomes available. Our goal is to accommodate families as soon as space allows, and so during the entire process, we will keep in touch with you regarding your status. While waiting for a space to become available at the first-choice location, many families enroll at their second or third choices temporarily until space becomes available at their first-choice centers. Enrolling at another location will not only solve your immediate child care needs, but will provide you priority access to your first preference.
What is the background check process for daycare staff at Bright Horizons Chicago child care centers?
Bright Horizons conducts comprehensive background checks on all prospective employees and frequent visitors. In Chicago, the state of IL Department of Youth and Families requires background checks for employees of a daycare or licensed child care facility.
Bright Horizons background checks consist of a county criminal record check for the past seven years performed in all counties that a person has lived, worked or attended school. In addition to the county criminal search, a sex offender search, OFAC search, and a social security verification trace are also conducted.
Is it safe to send my child to a Chicago daycare or preschool?
Bright Horizons is trusted by parents in Chicago, including many doctors and nurses, to care for their children. We’ve partnered with pediatric infectious disease specialist Dr. Kristin Moffitt of Boston Children’s Hospital to implement enhanced safety protocols for all areas including daily health screening, distancing, cleaning, and disinfecting. Our goal is to ensure that all of our health and safety practices in every center are in line with recommendations provided by the CDC and requirements of state and local municipalities. Our Chicago centers have the well-being of children, families, and staff at their core.
Do Bright Horizons daycare centers follow state/local requirements for masking and vaccinations?
Where there are additional state or local requirements, for example around vaccination/masking, Bright Horizons also complies with applicable legal requirements in each jurisdiction in which we operate.
Are daycare staff at Bright Horizons in Chicago trained in CPR and First Aid?
All Bright Horizons Chicago staff are trained regularly in CPR /First Aid and Universal Precautions. You can feel confident that your child is safe and receiving the best care possible while in our care. Families of children in our care use the to get photos, real-time updates on care, learning, and milestones, and stay up to date on important notifications.
All Bright Horizons Chicago staff receive ongoing training, including CPR/First Aid and Universal Precautions. You can feel confident that your child is healthy, safe, and thriving while in our care. Bright Horizons families use the MyBrightDay mobile app daily to get photos, real-time updates on care, learning, and milestones, and to stay up-to-date on important notifications.

How much does daycare in Chicago cost?
Daycare tuition depends on your child’s age, as well as your choice in center location. To get a customized tuition quote for Bright Horizons in Chicago, we will set up a Zoom meeting with you to discuss your family’s needs and calculate what tuition would look like for you.
Does Bright Horizons in Chicago have baby daycare?
Yes. Most of our locations offer infant care programs for children starting at six-weeks old. We’re happy to schedule a safe, personalized Zoom visit for expectant parents who would like to learn about why Bright Horizons can offer more than a daycare, even for our youngest learners. Bright Horizons in Chicago is a great place for babies.
Does Bright Horizons in Chicago have a toddler daycare?
Yes. Most of our locations offer toddler programs for children to start to explore independence, language development, and social skills. We’re happy to schedule a safe, personalized Zoom visit for parents who would like to learn about why Bright Horizons can offer more than a daycare. Find out what toddlers learn in our Chicago child care programs.
Does Bright Horizons in Chicago have a daycare preschool program?
Yes. Most of our locations offer preschool and pre-K programs for children that prepare them for school success. We’re happy to schedule a safe, personalized Zoom visit for parents who would like to learn about why Bright Horizons can offer more than a daycare and what school readiness at Bright Horizons in Chicago looks like.
How are working parents supported by Bright Horizons in Chicago?
Bright Horizons in Chicago supports the whole family because we know that success at work and success at home go hand-in-hand. We designed our centers, programs, and schedules to keep the needs of both children and parents in mind.
Is Bright Horizons hiring daycare teachers in Chicago?
Yes. Please visit our careers site to view all active Bright Horizons job openings in your area. Our careers site allows you to search for all open positions (part-time, full-time, and temporary) in our centers, including positions at client center that only enroll families who work for specific employers.
Is Bright Horizons a good place to work in Chicago?
Yes, but don’t just take our word for it! We’ve been named 20 times as one of FORTUNE’s 100 Best Companies to Work For, and are honored to be the only child care company to ever make the list.
How can I find child care when a Chicago daycare center is closed?
Having a sitter or two familiar with your family can be extremely helpful when you need back-up care. With the Sittercity app, you can search for local babysitters and nannies, or post a job detailing your needs, and have interested child care providers reach out to you directly. The Sittercity app has built-in screening tools that give you control to hire with ease and confidence, which include secure messaging, interview booking, professional references, and background checks.
What is the difference between daycare and in-home child care in Chicago?
With a babysitter or nanny in your home, your child gets personalized, one-on-one attention in an environment controlled by you. Your child care will match the exact schedule you need, all in the convenience of your home. If desired, you can also get house management help from your in-home provider. A daycare facility tends to be a more cost-effective option in an environment designed for learning and whole child development, with age-appropriate curriculum and structured socialization. In the end, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to child care—pick the environment that’s best for you.
Does Bright Horizons have summer care in Chicago?
We have a partnership with Steve and Kate’s camp locations as well as our Summer Explorations programs for children ages 3-5 and 6-12.
Does Bright Horizons in Chicago allow children with special needs to enroll in daycare?
Yes. Bright Horizons in Chicago accommodates a wide range of special and individualized needs in our group programs. We offer inclusive programs that focus on each child’s strengths and support a collaborative team approach with the teacher, director, specialists, and families. The team will work closely together to maximize your child’s opportunities for learning, growth, and development, and minimize any barriers or safety issues that a group program may present.

From early exposure to music and languages to activities that promote socialization, creativity, and physical development, we are constantly refining our programs to provide the most well-rounded experience possible.

About LadyBug and Friends Chicago
At Ladybug and Friends we make it our mission to provide a holistic approach to early education, giving each child a safe environment to explore, learn, and grow in a manner that recognizes their unique qualities as they build a foundation for their future.
Our curriculum is designed to meet the specific developmental needs at each stage of early childhood, fostering qualities such as positive self-identity, emotional well-being, social skills, language, reasoning, creativity, physical development and respect for diversity and community.
We strive to ensure that these developmental goals are met through joyful and engaging activities that encourage development while nonetheless providing a sense of play and personal autonomy. We also believe that children flourish most when there is a foundation of good nutrition, plenty of rest, and respect for teachers and peers.

Julia Lathrop
Julia Clifford Lathrop (June 29, 1858 – April 15, 1932) American social reformer in education, social policy, and child welfare. As director of the United States Children’s Bureau from 1912 to 1922, she was the first woman ever to head a United States federal bureau. [1]

Julia Clifford Lathrop was born in Rockford, Illinois. Julia’s father, a lawyer and personal friend of Abraham Lincoln, helped establish the Republican Party and served in the state legislature (1856–57) and in Congress (1877–79).). Her mother was a suffragist, an active advocate for women’s rights in Rockford, and a first-class graduate of Rockford Female Seminary.
Lathrop attended Rockford Female Seminary where she met Jane Addams and Ellen Gates Starr. A year later, she moved to Vassar College, developing her own interdisciplinary studies in statistics, institutional history, sociology, and social organizations, and graduated in 1880. [2] After that, she worked in her father’s law office, first as a secretary, and then independently studied law.
Work in Chicago
In 1890 Lathrop moved to Chicago where she joined Jane Addams, Ellen Gates Starr, Alzina Stevens, Edith Abbott, Grace Abbott, Florence Kelly, Mary McDowell, Alice Hamilton, Sophonisba Breckinridge and other social reformers at Corpusny house. [3] In the early days of the House, Lathrop led a discussion group called the Plato Club. The women at Hull House actively tried to convince Congress to pass a child protection bill. During the depression years at the beginning of 90’s Lathrop worked as a volunteer investigator for aid seekers, making home visits to document the needs of families.
In 1893, Lathrop was appointed the first female member of the Illinois Board of Charities, having begun her life in the field of civil service reform: advocating for the training of professional social workers and the standardization of recruitment procedures. This will lead to the opening of the labor market for educated women, as well as to the improvement of social services in the cities of the progressive era. Over the next few years, she helped bring about reforms such as the appointment of female doctors to state hospitals and the removal of the mentally ill from state correctional institutions.
Director of the US Children’s Bureau
“Miss Julia S. Lathrop”, World Work , 1912.
Responding to pressure from progressive female reformers to appoint a woman to the newly created Children’s Bureau, in 1912 President William Taft appointed Latrop as the first head of the bureau. [4] Over the next nine years, Lathrop directed research into child labor, infant mortality, maternal mortality, juvenile delinquency, mothers’ pensions, and illegality. [5]
The Lathrop Children’s Bureau (1912–21) (known as “America’s First Official Mother”) and its successors became an administrative unit that not only created child protection policy but directed its implementation. For many conservative women, the Bureau’s focus on maternal and child health first gave them the opportunity to play a role in politics – something that the suffrage or women’s rights movement didn’t offer them. The Bureau expanded its budget and staffing to focus on a scientific approach to motherhood to reduce infant and maternal mortality, improve child health, and advocate for skilled care for children with disabilities. Lathrop modeled the Children’s Bureau investigation on the work she did at Hull House. The bureau also lobbied for the abolition of child labor. Scholarly language became critical to reforms, such as campaigns to save children in large working-class, immigrant cities, where middle-class motherhood struggled with modern notions of the inevitability of high infant mortality. “Mother work in the community” [1] :34 meant that women, educated in the latest scientific theories about child health and safety, would lead the movement for child protection reform.
In her first annual report to the agency, Lathrop described plans to expand: promoting birth registration, field research on infant mortality, producing information brochures and reports, expanding the study of child labor laws, studying issues related to mothers’ pensions, and studying the status of “dependent, defective and delinquent. ” [5] :52 Lathrop wrote in 1914: “Infant welfare work is beginning to be seen as more than charity or goodwill. This is an extremely important public concern that tests the public spirit and the democratic nature of society.” [1] :74
unlike the National Congress of Mothers The leadership of the Lathrop Children’s Bureau relied on their belief in the New Woman’s right to freedom for individual development and opportunity, including higher education on par with men and decent work. However, Lathrop cautiously insisted that motherhood was “the most important calling in the world.” [1] :81 and deny that women have career ambitions. Thus, Lathrop could avoid controversy even if she secured the support of a new agency.
Julie Lathrop Commissioner, US Children’s Bureau
In 1917, the American Labor Law Association proposed a National Health Insurance Act that included a provision for weekly cash payments to pregnant women. Lathrop opposed the private insurance industry and the American Medical Association to support the proposal, believing that the maternity benefit systems already in place in Germany, England and France left too many women and their babies uninsured. Lathrop argued in his address to the American Public Health Association at meeting 1918 years in Chicago, US leaders had to eliminate the causes of poverty in order to meet the health needs of children: the high infant mortality among the poor and working class in American cities was caused not only by ignorance or laziness. Lathrop asked, “Which is the safer and more reasonable conclusion! That 88 percent of all these fathers were irredeemably lazy or mentally below normal, or that a healthy public economy requires an irreducible minimum standard of living supported by minimum wages and other such things. what means can be developed to give every child a chance? ” [5] :63
However, the position of most employees of the Children’s Bureau and other government agencies was that women – especially those with children – should not work outside the home, even if they are poor. Any connection between children’s health and issues such as expanding workers’ insurance, minimum wages, or sanitation systems has lost credibility. A popular strategy remained focused on “Americanizing” immigrant workers and teaching white mothers how to care for their babies. It is important to note that the Bureau chose not to consider the appallingly high death rate of children in families of color. In the South, most of the public health campaigns were led by African Americans, Hispanics, or Black Clubwomen working in their own segregated communities. [6] [7] [8]
In 1921, the Sheppard-Towner Maternity and Infancy Act became the first federally funded welfare measure in the United States. [3] The law provided federal grants to the states for prenatal and pediatric clinics, nursing visits for pregnant women and newborns, dissemination of nutrition and hygiene information, and midwife education. Contrary to Lathrop’s original ideas, the final version of the law did not provide for any financial assistance or medical care.
The first 30 years of the twentieth century marked the transition from traditional social medicine, which included the use of relatives or local midwives, to the emergence of modern medical management of childbirth and child rearing by specialists outside the family and home. [1] :33 However, as the federal bureaucracy flourished in the subsequent years of World War II, the only agency focused solely on children lost its power and influence.
Juvenile Justice
As early as 1898, at the third annual conference on philanthropy in Illinois, organized by philanthropist Lucy Flower and Julia Lathrop, reformers called for a separate court system for children. [9] Lathrop’s experience at Hull House and as a member of the Board of Charitable Organizations gave her firsthand knowledge of the conditions of children’s care in county paupers’ homes and prisons. Before the reform era, children over the age of seven were kept in prisons with adults. Lathrop helped found the nation’s first juvenile court in 1899, and the Chicago Woman’s Club established a Juvenile Committee (elected Lathrop as its first president in 1903) to pay the salaries of fifteen probation officers and operate the detention center at 625 West Adams Street. .
By 1904, Julia Lathrop helped organize and then became president of the Juvenile Psychopathy Institute. The director was psychologist William A. Healy, who led scientific research into the physical and mental health of children, abandoning the belief that the environment alone was responsible for a child’s criminal behavior. Along with members of the National Congress of Mothers, Lathrop worked to organize the juvenile court movement nationally with justice law reformers such as Judge Ben Lindsey (who later chaired the National Conference of Charities and Corrections’ Juvenile Subcommittee). [10]
Later life
In 1918, President Woodrow Wilson sent Lathrop and Grace Abbott to represent the United States at an international conference on child protection. There, Lathrop advised on the establishment of a childcare bureau in the newly formed country of Czechoslovakia. Upon her retirement from the Children’s Bureau in 1922, Lathrop became president of Illinois. League of Women Voters. She also helped form the National Committee on Mental Illness. At 19In 25, Lathrop represented the United States in Switzerland on the Committee for the Protection of Children established by the League of Nations.
Honors
Rockford University has a residence hall and Rockford has a Lathrop Elementary School. [11] High School in Santa Ana, California also bears her name. Although the hostel at Vassar College is named after Dr. Edward Lathrop, a trustee, he was not Julia’s father. Julia’s father was William Lathrop, a lawyer and (briefly) congressman from Rockford, Illinois. In 1938, the Chicago Housing Authority opened the Julia S. Lathrop Homes, a public housing project in the North Center neighborhood on Chicago’s north side. 9 “School information and rankings in SchoolFinder”. Retrieved February 26, 2017.

Jane Addams – Russian US
Social reformer.
Early life
Jane Addams was born September 6, 1860 in Clearville, Illinois.
She was the eighth child in the family.
Her father was a prosperous miller, banker, abolitionist, and community leader who served eight times as a state senator.
Her mother died when Jane was two years old, and young Jane became devoted to her father, who remarried two years later.
In 1877, Adams entered Rockford Female Seminary in nearby Rockford, Illinois, where she became a student leader, graduating in 1881.
The seminary trained young women to become Christian missionaries in foreign lands, but Addams resisted pressure to serve overseas.
A Heavy Burden
After her father’s death in the summer after graduating from Rockford, Addams had a difficult period.
She left the Women’s Medical College of Philadelphia after only a few months and, suffering from various physical ailments that left her bedridden for months, often became depressed.
Travels in Europe in 1883-1885 and 1887-1888 introduced her to urban poverty and desolation, which left a lifelong imprint on her.
In 1888, she and Ellen Gates Starr, a close friend, enthusiastically embraced a plan to settle in an urban area and work directly to alleviate the ill effects of poverty.
Interested in eliminating class distinctions, Starr and Addams insisted that the upper classes should take responsibility for the adverse effects of rapid industrialization on the poor.
In 1889 they bought Hull House in an area of Chicago populated by Greek, Italian, Russian, German and Sicilian immigrants. Jane lived at Hull House for the remaining 46 years of her life.
Hull House
Hull House provided a place for educated white women to do meaningful work.
By 1893, the Hull House complex had become a center of activity, offering day care, a gym, a dispensary, a playground, cooking and sewing courses, and a cooperative boarding house for working girls.
Every week two thousand people came to Hull House.
As was typical of other 19th century progressives, Addams believed in the connection between art and social justice, and Hull House supported a range of artistic activities such as a gallery, a theater company, and a music school.
By 1907, the Hull House complex included 13 buildings located in a large city block.
Urban policy
By 1895, Addams and her group of workers realized that services and cultural uplift alone could not solve the deep-seated problems associated with urban poverty.
Employees published their opinions in Hull House maps and papers, drawing attention to the unsafe and unsanitary conditions in the city’s tenements and workshops, as well as the widespread practice of child exploitation.
Hull House pressure on the Chicago city government had already led to the passage of the first Illinois Factory Inspection Act in 1893, and in 1894 Hull House employees launched an ambitious campaign to improve the lives of the working poor.
They proposed ending child labor, reducing the hours of employed women, improving welfare procedures, getting the city to recognize labor unions, protecting immigrants from unscrupulous landlords and employers, introducing compulsory schooling, and improving industrial safety.
In 1899, the establishment in Chicago of the first juvenile court in the United States was largely the result of the efforts of Hull House staff.
National recognition
Jane’s efforts in Chicago brought her national fame.
She was a member of the Chicago School Board from 1905-1909 and was involved in the world peace movement.
Her articles appeared in many periodicals, and in 19She published four books between 00-1910: Democracy and Social Ethics (1902), New Ideals of the World (1907), The Spirit of Youth in the City Streets (1909) and 20 Years at Hull House (1910) .
In 1910 she was awarded an honorary degree from Yale University, the first woman to be so honored, and in 1911 she became the first head of the National Federation of Settlements.
Celebrities regularly visited her at Hull House, and even Theodore Roosevelt made several visits.
While Addams became a national hero, in Chicago, union support made her unpopular with the wealthy classes.
She often managed to offend the upper class with her open-minded approach to politics, believing that every person deserves to be heard.
Despite the criticism, Hull House continued to support unpopular causes and Addams enjoyed a long public career.
In 1931, she and Columbia University President Nicholas Murray Butler shared the Nobel Peace Prize for their efforts to promote general disarmament and international peace.
James died May 21, 1935.
Her funeral at Hull House drew thousands of mourners.
The Legacy of Jane Addams and Hull House
Hull House’s stories often tell of Jane Addams’ passion for the arts – in its galleries, theatres, libraries and studios.
But Addams also used artistic language to describe settler life as a democratic project.
Hull House artists, reformers and immigrants blurred the lines between art and life and placed aesthetics at the center of their vision of a more socially just world.
UIC School of Art and Art History Director Lisa Lee and UC Berkeley Associate Vice Chancellor Shannon Jackson discuss Addams’ art philosophy and its legacy to today’s activist artists.
This program recognizes a generous multi-year grant from the Terra Foundation for American Art.
The Terra Foundation is committed to promoting the study and understanding of the visual arts in the United States for national and international audiences.
Philosophical Heritage
While Jane has not always been part of the canon of classical American philosophy, her contemporaries, including John Dewey, William James, and George Herbert Mead, publicly acknowledged Addams’ influence on their thinking.
Thus, in addition to her own work, Addams’ intellectual legacy can be found in their philosophy.
However, for much of the 20th century, Addams was considered unoriginal, and her work was seen as derived from other thinkers.
In the 1990s, renewed interest in Jane’s theoretical work developed out of a feminist practice of redefining the historical boundaries that had traditionally limited philosophical qualifications.

Djungarian hamsters (djungarians): maintenance and care, photo
In addition to lovers of small and large rodents, Djungarian hamsters are bred by people who, for some reason, cannot or do not want to keep a larger pet, but want to have a living creature nearby. They are also bred as first pets for children. Dzungaria are very cute, active and inquisitive. They do not require difficult conditions of detention, any special care, they are unpretentious in food. True, they live three, maximum four years.
When getting hamsters, keep in mind that they multiply exponentially. But this problem is solved if we take only one animal of either sex. He will live alone.
Another feature of hamsters is their nocturnal lifestyle. So you may well get nightly rustling, creaking, sniffing and tapping of small claws. As for the rest, the jungars will not cause much trouble.
What colors are there?
The most common natural color: the back is gray-brown, with a pronounced black stripe along the spine. The tummy is light, the paws are also light on the inside. However, hamsters and other colors are bred in nurseries: pearls, mandarin, sapphire.
Mandarin repeats the natural pattern, but the coat is not dark, but light brown or even red.
Sapphire – gray-blue color
Pearls are the rarest. This is a white hamster. The pearl color is characterized by the absence of a dark stripe along the back.
Djungarian hamsters are not black or albinos, so if you come across one, it means that this is a representative of a different species. When purchasing a baby of an atypical color, keep in mind that he is likely to be less resistant to adverse conditions or stress.
How to take care of a jungar?
Keeping hamsters is easy, even small children can handle it. The main thing is to choose the right home.
The best option would be a cage, but not wooden and not with plastic rods, because a hamster can easily gnaw through them.
I advise you to choose special cages for rodents, they are pre-equipped with everything you need: a wheel for running, ladders, pipes for climbing, a house for rest. A small (10 cm long) house without windows (Ferplast Olimpia Cage for hamsters 46*29) is ideal for a djungarian*54) (Ferplast Hamster Duo Hamster Cage 58*42*33.5). Although the hamster itself is small, the cage should be chosen in large sizes, not less than 50 * 30 cm.
Place it in a quiet place, protected from the sun and drafts, but not near the radiators. Fill the bottom with a thick layer of filler – corn or cellulose, and put paper towels or napkins in the house to build a nest, in extreme cases (temporarily, you should not use them all the time) newspapers will do.
Sometimes hamsters are kept in large aquariums, about 40 cm in height and up to 100 cm in length. It is not recommended to keep small rodents in narrow containers with high walls, since the air in them circulates poorly. Because of this, bacteria harmful to the health of the animal multiply in the aquarium. In principle, it is possible to keep a hamster in an aquarium, but just carefully select the size and shape of the aquarium and make sure that the air does not stagnate in it.
Dzungaria are very clean animals. They constantly groom themselves with tongue and paws. Therefore, cleaning and even more so bathing hamsters is not necessary. Sometimes, if the fur is very dirty, you can give them a sand bath. Pour sand into the container (you can buy sand for chinchillas at the pet store) and run the hamster into it. Such entertainment will give him great pleasure.
Due to their cleanliness, the jungars do not cope with their natural needs throughout the cage, but organize a toilet place in one of the corners.
There are a few simple rules to help keep the cage clean:
General cleaning with a complete change of bedding causes a lot of stress for the hamster, so wash the cage no more than once a week. To do this, use a sponge, simple laundry soap and hot water. You need to wash all the accessories: a bowl, a wheel, toys – everything that is in the cage.
Clean the cage without waiting for a strong smell. Even with severe pollution, toxic chemicals such as bleach should not be used. If necessary, use vinegar to remove urine and odor stains, but rinse thoroughly after treatment.
Hamsters have a very sensitive psyche. Cleaning with a rearrangement makes them nervous, especially with regard to food supplies, which, obeying instinct, the animal creates. If you constantly ruin the “pantry”, the dzhungarik is stressed, unsuccessfully trying to find a more secluded place in the cage. Therefore, remove only spoiled products.
To reduce the stress of spring cleaning, leave some old litter and nest wipes in the cage. Also, during cleaning, transplant the hamster into a small container so that the animal is less worried.
How and what to feed a hamster?
A hamster must have a feeder and drinker. Use a heavy ceramic bowl as a feeder so that the jungarian cannot turn it over. And fix the drinker on the wall of the cage – so it will be difficult to overturn it and fill everything with water.
Divide your hamster’s food into two meals: morning and evening. The easiest solution is to buy ready-made mix for hamsters and small rodents. But you can prepare it yourself. The mixture includes grains (oats, corn), peas, seeds, and nuts. Animals love these products very much and eat them with pleasure.
IMPORTANT! Do not use mixtures for large rodents – they have a different composition and can be harmful to the health of jungars.
In addition to the finished mixture, add juicy food to the hamster menu (vegetables: cucumber, zucchini, carrots, corn grains, herbs, lettuce; fruits: apple, pear, berries), and occasionally protein food (boiled chicken, low-fat cottage cheese, a piece of unsalted fat).
IMPORTANT! The list of products prohibited for hamsters includes: coniferous branches; various sausages and sausages; sour cream, cream, milk; butter; fruit pits; potatoes, mushrooms; onion and garlic; cabbage; mint; watermelon; citrus; chocolate, cookies, ice cream, gozinaki, honey, sugar; salt, spices.
In addition to food, you can please the hamster with special treats: edible sticks and spikelets. And a mineral stone or a birch bar for grinding teeth is also useful, because the teeth of rodents grow all their lives.
What do you need to know about communicating with relatives and people?
In nature, adult hamsters live alone. If you still decide to have a couple, it is better to take those that have been around since birth. When you try to add someone else’s hamster to someone already living with you, there is a high probability of a conflict. However, you can put a removable partition in the cage and let the animals get used to each other.
If you have a male and a female, then during pregnancy and rearing the cubs of the male, be sure to either place them in another cage or separate them with a partition. Otherwise, one of the parents will eat the offspring.
When a jungarian gets into your house, he needs 7-10 days to get used to a new environment – unfamiliar smells, a new cage, sounds around.
Set the cage so that, on the one hand, the animal sees and gets used to the voices and appearance of people, on the other hand, it should not be very noisy. In no case do not disturb the hamster during the day while sleeping.
Important! If you have other animals, they should not cause discomfort to the new pet.
Djungarian hamsters are peaceful and non-aggressive creatures. The domestic jungarik almost never bites, gets along well with children and trustfully falls asleep in the arms of the owner while he strokes him. But in order to be able to take a hamster in your arms, play with him, from the very beginning, accustom your pet to your hands.
The most important rule: the hamster should not experience stress, otherwise he will show aggression and the process of taming will drag on for a long time.
How to teach a hamster to handle?
You will need to be patient and spare no time.
At the first stage, observe how he eats and drinks, how and when he plays, what hours he is active and what hours he rests.
Try to talk more with the hamster, stay near the cage more often.
When the animal gets used to you, stops hiding, start offering treats. He should associate the appearance of a tasty piece with you. Leave the treat in the cage first. Then offer a treat to the rodent through the rods or the door, while holding the pieces in your hands. When the hamster starts to come running to the smell, try to gently and slowly stick your hand through the door into the cage. As a treat, seeds and dried fruits are suitable.
The next step is likely to take quite some time. Once your hamster gets used to your hand in the cage, wait for the hamster to climb onto the palm of your hand in search of a treat. After some time, the pet will begin to eat from the hands and sit quietly in the palm of your hand.
The final step can be considered the moment when the hamster is so bold that you can pick it up. Gradually try to pull your hand out of the cage along with the animal. BUT do not rush, do everything calmly, slowly, in a quiet voice, saying kind words. As you understand, intonation (calm and friendly) is more important.
The Dzungarian hamster is perfect to become the first pet in life. He is picky in food, does not require special care, has almost no smell, does not bite and is sold in almost any pet store. But imagine how much joy and pleasure communication with these charming fluffy babies will bring to you and your children!

“That’s my friend!” Why do children sometimes interact with strangers?
You will probably also remember people in your life who were much older than you, but you were connected or still are connected by friendship. What attracts people of such different ages to each other? Similar interests, feeling needed and important. You can learn from an older friend what you can’t do yourself, what you can’t find from your parents. Psychologist Anna Skavitina tells why it is important for children to communicate not only with their parents, and what should be taken into account.
Anna Skavitina, psychologist, analyst, member of the IAAP (International Association of Analytical Psychology), supervisor of the ROAP and the Jung Institute (Zurich), expert of the Psychology journal
– Will grandfather come out for a walk? – I asked the five-year-old me, knocking on the door of a neighbor. Sometimes grandfather went with me to the yard to make secrets from candy wrappers and glass or invited me to drink tea with jam: his wife arranged the cups on a snow-white lace tablecloth. My neighbor’s grandfather taught me to play checkers, my grandmother showed me how to knit. Their children either grew up and moved away, or maybe they didn’t exist. But I, it seems, replaced their granddaughter, they enjoyed spending time with me and passed on what they knew and were able to.
General experience
People, as A. Zhukov writes, are “social animals”. Living together has always been important for our survival, and especially for our offspring. People lived in communes, extended families, there was always the opportunity not only to provide each other with protection, but also more successful hunting, as well as to distribute different activities among themselves and support each other. The trouble with today’s parenthood is isolation from each other, from relatives. Life in small families is often very difficult for parents without the necessary support and the ability to distribute childcare among relatives. And also learn how to care for children – watching how older relatives do it. That is why today’s mothers often feel completely incompetent as mothers, because they simply did not have anywhere to learn it.
Psychologists say that our troubles come from childhood, everything very much in our adult life depends on how our mother coped with caring for the child. Why mother? And because often there is no one else next to a modern child. Less and less grandmothers and other relatives are included in the life of a young family.
When people lived in large communes or villages, the child had the opportunity to “take care and love,” if it is lacking, from other relatives, to learn from them something that parents do not know how. Even just to be close to those who can do it – in the village. In case of emotional difficulties, write “to the grandfather’s village” or run to the aunt.
If there are many caring and loving adults, then if one of them is emotionally, mentally or physically unhealthy, then the rest of the relatives can somehow smooth it out, compensate. And if there are only one or two of these relatives? Here any word becomes exorbitantly significant! And even my childhood friendship with the neighbor’s grandfather looks somehow ambiguous now. And what attracted him in communicating with the child? Yes, just an opportunity to make up for your parental underrealized part.
Learning to communicate
But not only for knowledge and emotional support a child can value relationships with adult friends. Perhaps you had an experience when your mother’s or father’s friends came to visit the house, and you were waiting for them, and you were seated at an adult table, allowed to participate in adult conversations. The experience in which you, the little one, the last or penultimate in the family in the hierarchy, is taken for an equal. Often, in friendly relations with adults, the child gains experience of a different status, which helps to feel more confident and self-worth. Teenagers who feel rejected by their peers in such relationships have the opportunity to raise their self-esteem and feel accepted – even in a cooler society than peer society.
Often, talented, erudite guys who overtake their peers in some area become too incomprehensible to their peers, so they do not fit into peer groups. For their development, it is important to look for circles, camps, schools or clubs where there are people with similar interests. There are teachers, coaches, masters of their craft who can give support to children, support that they are not alone with their interests, ideas, desires. It’s better, of course, in reality, and not online, but such groups are easy to find in large cities, and not so easy in small ones, so you can do it via the Internet.
Children who constantly choose older friends as friends and are almost not friends with their peers often feel insufficiently competent in communication situations: the ability to control their emotions, resolve conflicts. Adults usually take over these functions, and the child can safely learn these skills. But if a child does not want to “test” his acquired skills on peers, he may need additional help from parents, teachers or psychologists in mastering them.
Any doubts?
Of course, parents often fear that through adult friends the child will fall into the forbidden zone, gain knowledge and experience for which he is not yet ready due to his age, where he should not even look. Perhaps he will be provoked to receive “adult” pleasures, or even he himself will show a desire, and he will not be denied his satisfaction. Or he may be a victim of sexual exploitation by an adult, without even understanding what is really happening. Alas, this can also happen.
It is important that friendship with older children and adults should not be secret from parents, neither in real life nor in virtual. If a small child is not ready to share what is happening, to talk about these relationships, then parents have every reason to take a closer look at such friendship. And it is possible to take urgent measures, to stop communication.
Children of very busy parents often want to find a source of additional warmth and care, which they lack, so they look for an adult who is able to give what they lack. And the child endows an adult friend with ideal features, with everything that he would like to see in his specific parents, and often regardless of what this adult really is. The duration of friendship with an older comrade is influenced by the same factors as friendship with peers. The child grows up, his social circle expands, interests change, experience and knowledge become greater. Often, friendship with older friends becomes obsolete, everyone disperses at a fork in the road, and each of the participants goes further, to live the next section of their life path.

12 best pets for kids
Things to think about before getting a pet for your child
Pets bring joy and help instill a sense of responsibility in a child. At the same time, a thoughtless choice can end badly for both you and the animal.
In a PetMD article, veterinarian Lauri Hess tells These Are the Best Pets for Kids at Each Age / PetMD that many people get frustrated with their pets simply because they don’t know how to take care of them and what to expect.
So, before you go to the pet store or look for listings, consider a few points:
How much space is needed. Estimate where your pet will live and whether you can place him away from the bed. Some animals, such as rats and hamsters, are nocturnal and can interfere with sleep.
How much does it cost to take care of an animal. Will you be able to buy a spacious cage for a rodent and a suitable terrarium for a reptile, will you have enough money for quality food, bedding, training and a visit to the veterinarian.
What will be interesting for the child. Some animals are well attached to people, others almost do not pay attention to them. What does your child want: to watch, to hold, to play, to walk with a pet?
Will the child be able to interact with the animal. Think about whether your children are ready to carefully handle fragile animals, gradually tame disturbing ones and take care of those who require constant attention.
What will you do if your child loses interest in a pet. Even if the kids beg you to buy a furry friend, after a week they may completely forget about him. Think about whether you can take care of the animal yourself and how you will look for him a new home if you are not ready for the extra trouble.
In any case, before taking an animal, bird or reptile, find out as much as possible about them. Watch videos from experienced breeders, read grooming articles, and talk to people who already have such pets.
Below we list a few popular pets for kids, the main features and problems you may encounter.
What kind of pets can you get for children
1. Cat
Photo: Anastasia Naumtseva / Lifehacker
A great option for any living conditions. For the most part, cats are affectionate, playful and non-aggressive animals that do not require special care and give their owners a lot of positive emotions.
If you want to get a kitten, it is better to do it not earlier than your child is 3-4 years old. It is more difficult for kids to explain that a cat is not a toy, but a living being, which can also be painful and unpleasant if, for example, the tail is pulled or held against its will.
In addition, an older child can take on some of the responsibility for the cat. For example, at 5 years old, he is able to pour food and change water, and at 6–7 years old, he can comb his pet and clean the toilet.
You should not get a cat if:
you are very worried about repairs and furniture. A pet can choose doorposts or a favorite sofa as a scratching post;
someone in the family is allergic to cats;
you are not ready to brush wool from clothes, furniture and everything in the house.
2. Dog

As a rule, families with children are advised to choose non-aggressive, friendly and non-competitive dogs. The list of the best usually includes 10 Best Family Dogs / American Kennel Club Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever, Bulldog, Beagle, Irish Setter, Collie, French Bulldog.
But we must understand that even dogs of the same breed can be very different from each other due to the peculiarities of the psyche, and with proper education, almost any dog can become an affectionate and faithful friend.
The question is whether you are ready to devote enough time to it. Unlike cats and many other pets, dogs do require a lot of time and effort. We can say that when you get a dog, you bring another family member into the house. If you’re not ready to expand just yet, consider other options.
A dog is not suitable for you as a pet if:
you are not ready to pay for food, trips to the veterinarian and cynologist;
you don’t have time for daily walks and training;
at home you value peace and quiet.
3. Budgerigar

Bright, sociable and noisy birds are great for home keeping. They become attached to their owners, imitate speech and are even able to learn a few words.
Since a small child can inadvertently harm a fragile pet, it is better to get parakeets for children over five years old. And it is advisable to immediately take at least two, so that they are not bored.
In addition, it is worth considering that parrots need periodic flights to keep their wings in good shape. At this time, you will need to monitor the feathered one so that it does not harm itself and does not spoil things and wallpapers.
It is better not to have a parrot if:
you are not ready to put up with constant noise;
you plan to have only one bird and are not ready to devote much time to it;
you are not sure that the child will be able to handle the pet carefully.
4. Rat

Rats are smart and active, they are not afraid of people and other pets, they climb well, jump far and love to explore something new. Watching them is pure pleasure.
The child will be able to carry a pet on his shoulder, play with him and even take him for a walk. Decorative rats are very friendly, quickly get used to the owners and do not bite.
But their claws leave micro-scratches on the skin, which then itch. This passes quickly, but is still unpleasant, so it is better if the rat runs on clothes, and not on bare shoulders and neck.
Even if the children promise to spend a lot of time with the rodent, it is better not to keep the rat alone – she will be bored. Better take two same-sex individuals or a whole company.
It’s better not to have rats if you:
are going to keep a cage in the room where you sleep. Rodents are active at dusk and make noise at night;
know that the child is very attached to pets. Rats live for about 3 years and often get sick;
you want to have only one animal and are not ready to devote much time to it.

What you need to know before getting a pet rat
5. Chinchilla

These cute rodents have very soft and fluffy fur, big eyes and cute paws that look like little hands. But at the same time, you should think twice before giving such a charming child to a child.
Chinchillas are not particularly contact, they need to be tamed, and if they get scared, they can bite. Moreover, the rodent should not be kept in your arms for a long time, so that the pet does not overheat, and its dry fur does not get wet from wet hands.
Therefore, you should not get a chinchilla for a child under 10-12 years old. First you need to make sure that he can learn all the rules for handling a gentle animal and treat him with care.
When it comes to grooming, chinchillas need a large cage with a plastic or wooden bottom, as rods can irritate the animal’s paws, sand baths and temperature control – they are very sensitive to overheating.
You shouldn’t get a chinchilla if:
you want a contact pet who can be picked up all the time;
there is no room for a large cage in the apartment;
you are allergic to animals;
you can’t put the cage where the fuss and cries of the chinchilla won’t be heard at night.
6. Rabbit

These fluffy pets are quite smart. They can be trained, they can remember their name and respond to it, they are accustomed to the tray. If a rabbit is accustomed to a person, it can be quite affectionate and playful, happy to sit in your arms.
However, it must be taken into account that it must be taken correctly and in no case should it be grabbed by the ears. Otherwise, a frightened rabbit may bite the offender or hit him hard enough with his hind legs.
It is best to get a rabbit for a child from 7–8 years old, so that the little owner treats the pet with care and can take care of him.
An adult rabbit is about the size of a cat, but requires much more attention. He needs a cage at least 120 x 60 x 120 cm or a special paddock in which he can move freely.
Some owners keep rabbits without a cage. If you decide to do this, keep in mind that pets will gnaw on everything wooden, including your furniture, they can ruin wires and other things. So it’s better not to leave them unattended.
Don’t get a rabbit if you:
can’t buy a spacious cage or pen;
are not ready to sweep up the debris, hair and feces that a rabbit will leave free-range;
you are afraid that furniture, wallpaper and everything on the floor may be damaged.
7. Bearded dragon

These are reptiles that like to sit on their hands. So if your child is into lizards, the bearded dragon is the best choice.
Keep this lizard Bearded Dragon For Beginners (The Complete Care Sheet) / Everything Reptiles in a spacious glass terrarium measuring approx. 30–40%.
In addition, the bearded lizard needs to be fed live insects – they make up 80% of the reptile’s diet, while only 20% comes from fruits, vegetables and greens. If you (and the child) are not scared by this, it will be very interesting.
Bearded Dragon is not for you if you:
are not ready to spend money on a spacious terrarium, lamps and heating;
are not sure that you will closely monitor the temperature regime and the presence of light;
you hate the insects that you have to feed the lizard.
8. Hamster

Hamsters look very nice, do not require much free space and tolerate loneliness well. Unlike rats or birds, they do not need the company of relatives to live a happy life. Moreover, these rodents will not be upset if they are not taken out of the cage at all.
Despite their cute appearance, hamsters are not very sociable, require gradual taming and bite quite strongly if frightened. Therefore, you should not get such pets for small children, who so far cannot recognize a living creature in a soft ball with their needs and fears.
In terms of housing, the hamster needs a cage with dimensions of at least 50 x 40 x 30 cm, with a running wheel and a distance of no more than 1.5 cm between the bars so that the rodent does not escape. This animal cannot exist on a free range and, if lost, is very likely to get into trouble and die.
You shouldn’t have a hamster if:
you can’t stand noise at night. Rodents are active at dusk, so if you put the cage where you sleep, it will interfere;
the child is strongly attached to pets. Hamsters live only 2-3 years;
you want to be able to play with your pet. It all depends on the nature of the particular animal and your domestication efforts, but still some hamsters can avoid contact with people, so the child will only have to watch him.
9. Achatina snail

If your child likes exotic pets, giant Achatina can be a great choice. Such pets will not cause any inconvenience – they will not make noise and scatter garbage, they will not bite or scratch the baby. At the same time, they live for quite a long time – up to 10 years.
Snail care is also easy. Achatina live in a terrarium or a ventilated container with a volume of 10 liters or more, on a bedding of soil or coconut substrate. It is important to maintain a temperature of 24-28 ° C and a humidity of 70-85% in the habitat, and change the filler and water in a timely manner.
Snails eat once a day, fruits and vegetables such as apples, cucumbers, carrots, lettuce. Achatina is also recommended to give calcium supplements, for example, from crushed eggshells.
You should not get a snail if:
your child wants an active pet that will be interesting to play with;
you are not ready to seriously approach the arrangement of the terrarium, maintaining the desired temperature and humidity. If the snail is cold, it can hide in its shell and fall into suspended animation.
10. Canary

Canaries are suitable for children who enjoy watching animals more than interacting with them.
These bright and beautiful birds are easy to care for All About Finches and Canaries / PetMD. Unlike parrots, they cannot pinch a finger painfully and do not need occasional flights outside the cage.
However, canaries do not tolerate loneliness, so it is advisable to take several individuals at once. If you want songbirds, take males – they are more vociferous, and their trills are more melodic.
A rectangular cage with several perches is suitable for keeping a canary. It must be installed in a well-ventilated and well-lit room. Daylight in the morning and darkness at night are necessary for the health of the birds. It also depends on whether they will sing.
Do not take a canary if:
you are annoyed by noise, fuss and chirping;
your child is not careful enough and can harm a fragile pet.
11. Yemeni chameleon
Photo: aixklusiv / Pixabay
This is a bright and beautiful reptile with a long tongue, lightning-fast reaction and eyes that rotate independently of each other. The chameleon is active during the daytime, so that the child can watch him and take the pet in his arms without fear.
To keep a chameleon, you will need a 60 x 45 x 90 cm terrarium with good ventilation, woody soil bedding and various snags and branches to crawl on.
As with the bearded lizard, the Yemeni chameleon definitely needs UV lamps, which should shine for 11-13 hours and then turn off. In order not to disturb its natural cycles, it is advisable to set a timer.
Particular attention should be paid to the heating of the terrarium. In the place where the chameleon is kept, there should be two zones: cold with a temperature of about 26 ° C and warm – from 35 ° C. In the second, the lizard will bask after eating.
Chameleons feed mainly on insects. They do not notice standing water, so you will have to install a drip drinker or waterfall.
As for taming a chameleon, at first the child can feed him from his hands, and when the lizard gets used to it, take it out of the terrarium. However, everything here depends on the particular individual – some get along well with people and become attached to the owners, others do not tolerate relationships outside their zone.
You shouldn’t have a chameleon if:
you have an aversion to insects, as they form the main part of the lizard’s diet;
are not ready to seriously approach the arrangement of the terrarium – take care of temperature, humidity, the presence of various snags and lighting.
12. Guinea pig
Photo: rubyclement / Pixabay
Guinea pigs rarely bite, but they are very shy and require some effort to tame. In order for the pet to feel comfortable and not be afraid of the owners, you need to gradually accustom it to hands, lure it with goodies and wait until the animal gets used to it and stops being scared.
If you are not sure that the child is attentive enough to cope with it on their own, try not to leave them unattended with the pet at first. Otherwise, the furry friend will be in constant stress, which will have a bad effect on his health.
Like rats, guinea pigs cannot stand loneliness, and a person cannot always replace his fellows with him. Therefore, it is better to have two individuals of the same sex at once so that they are not bored.
Since these rodents are quite large, keep them in a spacious cage at least a meter long and sometimes let them out for walks, making sure that the environment is safe.
Keep in mind that guinea pigs will urinate everywhere.

Welcome to The Children’s Courtyard educational daycare in Lewisville, TX! My name is Brandy, and I am the campus director of this wonderful school. I have been working in child care as a teacher and manager since 1995.
At The Children’s Courtyard, our Infant Care and Preschool programs provide the perfect foundation for learning and development. We have separate rooms for each age group and we also have two indoor playrooms for use during inclement weather. Our School-Age program is located in a separate building and includes several rooms for a variety of activities.
We have an outstanding group of teachers on our staff. Together, they have more than 60 years of experience! To remain leaders in early education, all of our teachers participate in ongoing training throughout the year. We also have an amazing cook on staff who ensures children receive healthy, delicious meals that are safe for children with allergies.
We’re committed to keeping you connected throughout the day while your child is in our care. Get access to live streaming video of your child’s classroom, plus other real-time updates, with our exclusive mobile app for families, SproutAbout.

The Duchess of Cambridge opened the Early Childhood Center – RUTÁGE
The Duchess of Cambridge opened the Early Childhood Center at the Royal Foundation. The Center will explain to people how important the first years of childhood are and how the lives of future generations can be changed by drawing attention to this problem.
“My long journey began with people coping with the consequences of addiction, homelessness and family breakdown,” begins a short introduction video published on the eve of the launch of the Duchess of Cambridge’s ambitious Early Childhood Center project from the Royal Foundation.
According to the Duchess’s aide to ITV, “our center’s purpose is to promote awareness and action on the extraordinary impact of early development on human life. By changing the way we think and act in the first years of life, we want to transform society for future generations. It’s a big mission and vision, but we’re going to build on some really tangible, practical actions.”
This is an ambitious message from the Duchess of Cambridge, who has recently acquired the image of a public person and is ready to speak up for the ideas and principles she shares.

A post shared by Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (@dukeandduchessofcambridge)
In early July in The Telegraph, royal reporter Camille Tomini described a series of moments that changed Catherine’s perception of working as a member of the royal family at the beginning of the marriage, when “the whole world of community service was at her feet.”
After a number of private cameraless visits to help centers and charities, she realized that often the root of life’s difficult destinies lies in early childhood, and decided to work in this area. But there were still many years before the start of her main project.
Katherine sees this issue as the social equivalent of global climate change, but is concerned that it is not being taken seriously enough. It is believed that the duchess – the future queen – feels responsible for taking on a leadership role, raising public awareness and inciting action.
However, almost all the projects she has launched are related to this topic in one way or another: the M-PACT project to work with youth and their parents on issues of alcohol and drug addiction; palliative care pilot project; back to nature garden.
Since 2016, the Duchess of Cambridge has been working on child development and parent support as part of the Heads Together campaign, and in 2018 she launched the Psychologically Healthy Schools website. In the same year, she announced the long-term project “Early Years”.
Working with experts, meetings and public events, speeches at conferences revealed to us another Katherine.

Waxhaws is located in the historic area called the Waxhaws and is named after the local Native American tribe that lived there before the colonial settlement. Waxhaw is located in the Piedmont region of North Carolina, which is a wooded area with rolling hills. In this region, gold was first discovered in the United States.

History
Pedestrian bridge over railroad tracks
The region’s original inhabitants were a group of Native Americans known alternately as the Wysacky or Waxhaws. The first European to make contact with the group was the Spanish conquistador Juan Pardo. In 1711 the Waxhaw helped the colonists of North Carolina in their war against the Tuscarora, a decision that displeased the Tuscarora Iroquois allies in New York [9] who subsequently began raiding the Waxhaw tribe. These raids continued until 1715, when Waxhaw joined the Yamasee in the fighting against the South Carolina colony. The participation of the tribes in the Yamasee War led to their destruction at the hands of the allies of South Carolina Catawba and the liberation of their lands for European settlement. The area was first settled by European Americans in the mid-eighteenth century. Most of the settlers were of German and Scotch-Irish origin. The settlers became subsistence farmers and were known for their independence. Andrew Jackson, Seventh President of the United States, was born nearby in 1767. There is some controversy as to which of the Carolinas was his birthplace due to the proximity of the border. However, there are historical markers around Waxhaw, North Carolina that describe Andrew Jackson’s early association with the area; it is also referenced in the Wax Museum. [10] Andrew Jackson State Park is minutes from downtown Waxhaw, where there is a memorial and other information about Andrew Jackson.
The arrival of the railroad in 1888 opened up access to Atlanta’s markets and helped the city to prosper. Railroad tracks were laid through the city center to show the importance of the railroad system to society.

Big!
Living in Chicago for more than one month, visiting more than one museum of this city, the first impression is the scale! Therefore, shoes should be comfortable, and health – excellent! Each age group will be interested in certain expositions of the museum. The big advantage is that everything can be touched, looked at, twisted, twirled, photographed and filmed. When asked to talk about the museum, two words, five minutes and one sentence won’t get you off! Definitely, I will advise every person and wish to visit the museum at least once in their life in reality, and not virtually, and see everything with their own eyes.

Amazing museum
Read the previous low rating reviews and was surprised because everything was different on our visit. We decided to visit the museum on Saturday, came to the opening, at 10 o’clock. Everything is clean, the glass is rubbed, transparent and everything is perfectly visible! Lots of themed rooms. You can touch everything and get as close as possible. The main thing is that visitors have a lot of time! We had five hours, so we walked around calmly, examining, analyzing, photographing …

When a fire is good for the city.
We really liked the walking area along the river! And the famous Chicago fire and the decision of the city authorities after the fire not to rebuild that pigsty again from many small warehouses, berths for cargo barges, workshops and other things, other things, but to make the embankment normal and accessible to the citizens, and the entire warehouse and take out the industrial bustle outside the city. And it turned out great. We drove 7000 km across the country, through 16 states, and we liked Chicago more than other cities. And the embankment is a plus for the city.

How cool!!!
That’s all for the people!!! There is such a wonderful zoo in a huge park. A wide variety of animals in well-maintained pens. Of course, the animals are in an environment that is not natural for them, but the conditions that are created for them are very appropriate, the animals are practically free – there is so much space allocated for them. Thanks to everyone who takes care of them there, feeds them, protects them …. there is something to compare with, since zoos in Ukraine are a cabinet of curiosities for animals.

Greensboro peach is a dessert variety known for more than a hundred years. Its tender, large fruits are among the first to ripen in the southern regions with a hot climate, but they can also ripen much further north. Peaches have long ceased to be exotic in the gardens of the middle lane. Proper care allows Greensboro to endure cold winters and stably bear fruit both on the Black Sea coast and in the Moscow region.
Breeding History
The Greensboro Peach was obtained in the late 19th century by free pollination from a seedling of the Connet variety. The birthplace of an early and frost-resistant fruit is the USA. In 1947, the variety was zoned in the North Caucasus, peach showed itself well in the Crimea, and widely spread in Central Asia and the Black Sea region.
Description of Greensboro peach cultivar
The Greensboro peach tree without enhanced shaping grows tall with a spreading crown. Annual growth is average. Shoots with short internodes, smooth, in the light acquire a dark crimson hue.
Peach leaves of medium length (up to 15 cm), folded in the form of a boat in the center, with tips bent down. The upper side of the plate is dark green, the lower side is light gray. Petiole up to 1 cm. The edges have rounded teeth.
Fruit buds large, ovoid, arranged in groups. The variety blooms profusely and amicably. The inflorescences of the Greensboro variety are pink. Petals are large, bright pink, rounded.
Description of Greensboro peach fruit:
large: over 55 mm in diameter;
oval with flattened, depressed top;
average fruit weight ranges from 100 to 120 g;
fibrous, juicy, creamy flesh with a green tint;
the surface of the fruit is rigidly pubescent, rough;
green skin with slight burgundy blush;
stone small, difficult to separate, prone to cracking.
With a medium sugar content, Greensboro fruits are distinguished by a balanced sweet and sour taste and a strong peach aroma.
The variety is zoned and recommended for cultivation in the south of the country. But the right agricultural technology allows you to get excellent yields in the middle lane, zones with moderate winters and warm, humid summers.
Characteristics of the variety
Greensboro peach, according to the description of the All-Russian Selection Institute, belongs to the table fruits. An early ripe, high-yielding variety combines winter hardiness and drought resistance, which allows you to significantly expand its cultivation areas.
Drought-resistant, frost-resistant
The crop withstands winters with temperatures below -22 °C. Greensboro peach, even in the Moscow region, according to reviews, shows excellent survival. Cases of complete recovery of the plant after freezing and death of the above-ground part (at -35 °C) to the level of snow cover have been recorded.
The drought resistance of the variety is relative. The tree does not die from a short-term drought, but the yield suffers, and the branches tend to become bare, which is why they winter badly.
Does the variety need pollinators
The Greensboro variety is self-fertile, trees can be planted in the same type of plantings. The yield is well influenced by the presence of other peaches in the garden for pollination.
Grafted on almonds, apricots, cherry plums, Greensboro is grown on difficult soils unsuitable for own rooted seedlings.
Yield and fruiting
Greensboro peach starts fruiting quickly: 2-3 years. By the age of 10, trees are gaining full strength. The maximum recorded yield from one adult peach is 67 kg.
The variety belongs to the early maturing period. In the south, Greensboro peaches ripen in July, in the black earth regions – by early August.
The palatability of the variety is estimated by experts at 4. 8 points out of 5. The content of solids in fruits reaches 12%, sugars – about 9%, acids – 0.4%, vitamin C – 6 mg per 100 g of pulp.
Fruit area
Greensboro does not keep well. From pressure, the tender flesh is deformed and darkens. Therefore, the variety is not intended for transportation over long distances and long-term storage. If necessary, transportation, the fruits are removed in technical ripeness: approximately 3-4 days before full ripening. Peaches are packed in boxes, shifting with soft, hygroscopic materials.
Disease and pest resistance
Greensboro is resistant to the main enemy of peach orchards – clasterosporium, as well as powdery mildew. In the absence of proper care and prevention, it is prone to leaf curl.
Advantages and disadvantages of
Over the centuries of cultivation, the Greensboro variety has gained undeniable recognition among gardeners for the following qualities:
Early harvest.
Frost resistance.
Aroma and taste.
Immunity to major diseases.
Disadvantages include:
uneven fruit size: from 70 to 120 g per tree;
the need for urgent use due to the rapid loss of presentation;
limited zoning and the need for shelter for the winter in the central regions.
The negative sides of the Greensboro peach, according to the reviews of novice gardeners, are sometimes indicated by a tendency to leaf curl, but this shortcoming is easily corrected with appropriate care.
Rules for planting peach
A seedling of a well-chosen variety suitable for the climate needs to be properly rooted. The further growth, development, fruiting of the Greensboro peach largely depends on this procedure. Timing plays an important role in planting.
Recommended planting dates
The following planting dates are recommended for tender, heat-loving Greensboro peach in different regions:
In the south – in autumn (September or early October). When planted in spring, young plants suffer from heat, sunburn.
In the middle lane – in autumn or spring, depending on the weather. The main criterion for planting is soil warmed up to +15 ° С.
Closer to the north – only in spring, when the soil and air warm up to comfortable temperatures.
In areas with cold winters and little snow, Greensboro peaches are sheltered for the winter.
Selecting a suitable site
Choose a sunny, wind-protected site for planting a heat-loving variety, preferably without stagnant water. The best choice would be the southern slope.
Greensboro variety grows on different types of soil, it does not tolerate only acidic and saline soils. Heavy soils can be enriched with humus, mature compost with complex fertilizers. A little humus or mineral supplements are added to light soil.
Selection and preparation of planting material
It is advisable to purchase peach seedlings in special nurseries. So the purchased trees will be guaranteed to correspond to the declared varietal qualities.
Signs of a good Greensboro seedling:
height – from 1 to 1.5 m;
age – up to 2 years;
trunk girth approx. 2 cm;
smooth bark, free from spots and damage;
healthy, moist roots, no signs of pests.
For spring planting, the material of the Greensboro variety is shortened to 80 cm, side shoots are cut by a third. At night, the root system is placed in a solution with a growth stimulator (for example, Kornevin). In the morning the seedling is ready.
Autumn planting Greensboro involves shortening the roots, it is advisable not to prun the trunk and branches until spring. On varietal greens with leaves, they are cut off before planting. Until the peach roots begin to fully function, the load should be reduced as much as possible.
Planting algorithm
Planting site for Greensboro peach is prepared in advance. The pit is dug six months before the estimated time of work. A recess of 40×40 cm is pre-prepared. The final size will depend on the root system of the seedling.
With free crown formation, between plants should not be less than 3 m. Peach does not tolerate thickening. Row spacing is kept from 4 to 5 m wide. The tighter fit of the Greensboro is only acceptable with heavy pruning and shaping.
Peach planting step by step:
A support (pole, pole) is placed in the center of the planting hole.
The bottom is covered with drainage (gravel, sand) at least 10 cm thick.
A mound of fertile substrate is built around the support.
The seedling is arranged in the center of the hole so that the support shaded the young plant from the daytime sun.
Gently spread the peach roots over a mound of earth, cover with a small layer of soil and press lightly.
Water the plant with a bucket of non-cold water and wait for the moisture to be completely absorbed.
At this stage, the hole can be filled completely with soil.
Leave the neck of the scion 3 cm above ground level if the Greensboro peach is to be grown in tree form. With the bush version, the grafting site is buried in the ground.
A shaft of earth is formed along the perimeter of the seat. Pour 2 buckets of water under each peach. It is advisable to immediately mulch the soil, but do not lay a moisture-saving layer close to the trunk.
Peach Aftercare
If planted in spring, Greensboro peach will swell and show leaves within 30 days.
Warning! It happens that the vegetation of the seedling does not start on time, there are no leaves all season, but the trunk remains flexible and the color of the bark is not changed. In such a dream, Greensboro can spend a whole year, and begin to develop rapidly next spring.
Pruning is the most important step in peach care. The fruiting and even successful wintering of the seedling depends on the formation of the crown and the regulation of the load. Standard techniques for pruning peaches of any variety are shown in the photo.
The Greensboro cultivar is characterized by dense fruit buds, mainly in the lower part of the growth. The branches of such varieties are shortened more than with a single arrangement of fruits on the shoot.
The goal of all maintenance measures is to increase the winter hardiness of seedlings. This principle is especially important to observe when growing Greensboro peach in the Moscow region and other central regions. Winters in the middle lane do not differ in critical frosts, but thaws are frequent, which has a bad effect on fruit buds and annual growth.
Greensboro Peach Care Features:
When fertilizing in the summer, potash compounds are preferred: potassium sulfate or ash. Nitrogen top dressings (even organic ones) have a bad effect on preparing the variety for wintering.
Greensboro Peach produces best fruit when watered regularly. With a lack of rain, the tree trunks should be deeply moistened every 10 days. After harvesting, it is advisable to stop watering: this will reduce the growth of branches, but increase the plant’s resistance to frost.
It is useful to mulch the peach tree with a thick layer (at least 10 cm) of organic matter, such as weeds. This protects the roots from frost in winter and keeps the soil moist in summer.
Harvest rationing allows Greensboro to tolerate cold weather more easily. In the spring, when pruning, it is worth removing the weakest ovaries or thinning them out if they are too abundant. Overloaded with fruits, peaches delight in season, but often freeze out in winter.
Diseases and pests, methods of control and prevention
The resistance of Greensboro variety to most of the diseases characteristic of peach allows for less preventive treatments with chemicals. But one of the viruses requires special attention.
The disease is manifested by leaf curl and requires preventive spraying:
in autumn – 3% Bordeaux mixture;
in spring – 1% solution of the same product;
in case of infection – with the drug “Topaz”, diluted according to the instructions.
Garden crops with sweet fruits are often attacked by aphids, codling moth, scale insects and striped moths. Karbofos, Zolon, Atellik or other specialized insecticides are used to control peach pests.
Tip! Affected branches are recommended to be cut and burned outside the garden.
Conclusion
The Greensboro Peach is an exceptionally tender and short-lived fruit. But its excellent palatability, early harvest and winter hardiness of trees provide the variety with popularity both in the south and in temperate zones.
Reviews
Victoria Pavlovna, 37 years old, Saratov
It took a long time to choose peach – our regions are not the most southern. Stopped in Greensboro. I grow a variety not as a tree, but as a bush. So it is easier to cover for the winter. I mulch the soil with sawdust, lay branches on them, sprinkle everything with sand. You can also use lutrasil from above so that the shelter does not collapse. I was worried about the first winter – whether the variety would freeze. Now I know how to prepare peaches for winter and there is nothing more to worry about.
Pavel Gennadievich, 56 years old, Stavropol
I have more than one variety of Greensboro in my garden, there are different peaches, but this one seems to me the most fragrant. It ripens one of the first, although not very sweet, but it is able to please both children and grandchildren. Before planting, you should know that the best way to consume these peaches is to eat right by the tree. The variety is not suitable for transportation.

For the first time since the loss of the flagship of the Black Sea Fleet cruiser “Moskva” off the coast of Ukraine, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported the number of dead sailors for the first time, TASS reports.
– Of the members of the crew of the cruiser “Moskva”, one person died, 27 were missing. The remaining 396 crew members of the Moskva cruiser were evacuated to the ships of the Black Sea Fleet and taken to Sevastopol,” the statement said.
As a result of the fire, the missile cruiser “Moskva” was seriously damaged due to the detonation of ammunition, the crew’s attempts to extinguish the fire did not lead to a result, the Ministry of Defense stressed.
Earlier, a number of media blocked for spreading fakes about the actions of Russian troops in Ukraine reported that at least 37 people died on the cruiser. In addition, there are missing persons. The message of the Ministry of Defense refutes this information.
Information about the fire on the cruiser Moskva began to arrive on April 13 from Ukrainian officials. Aleksey Arestovich, a representative of the president’s office, said that the cruiser was hit by two Neptune anti-ship missiles. During the day, the Ministry of Defense confirmed that there was a fire and an explosion of ammunition on board the cruiser.
The ship remained afloat and was towed to the port of Sevastopol. On April 15, the Ministry of Defense announced that the cruiser Moskva sank during a storm.

The current President of France Emmanuel Macron predicts serious problems for Europe that will be associated with the likely introduction of new anti-Russian sanctions. According to the politician, if the region completely refuses gas from Russia, it may face the real consequences of this decision only in winter.

The leader of the republic reasonably believes that European states will not notice the consequences of new sanctions that may affect Russian energy resources during the warm season – in spring and summer, since now the reserves in gas storage facilities have replenish.
But next winter we will feel them if there is no more Russian gas,
– Lenta.ru quotes Macron.
Let us recall that earlier the President of France stated that the EU is not currently discussing the possibility of refusing gas from Russia. In this context, so far they are only talking about oil and fuel from the Russian Federation.
It must be said that two days before the second round of the presidential elections now underway in France, the current head of state, according to polls, increased the lead over his competitor Marine Le Pen and apparently secured re-election, writes RBC. The final vote will take place on April 24.

The Deputy Commander of the Central Military District, Major General Rustam Minnekaev , stated that the second stage of the special operation will include the establishment of full control of the Russian Army over the Donbass and the southern regions of Ukraine. He spoke about this during a speech at a meeting of the Union of Defense Industries of the Sverdlovsk Region.

Minnekayev explained that control of the territory of Donbass would make it possible to build a land corridor to Crimea and have an impact on facilities vital for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, writes Gazeta. Ru. The military also noted that control over the Ukrainian south would provide the Russian military with another outlet to Transnistria, which is very important in the current geopolitical situation.
Recall that on February 24, the leader of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin announced the start of a special operation in Ukraine.

Even if Germany imposes an embargo on Russian gas supplies, peace will not be established in Ukraine. And the FRG and the rest of Europe do not need a serious economic crisis, which may be the result of the rejection of Russian energy resources.

This opinion was expressed by the German Chancellor Olaf Scholz , talking to Spiegel. “Lenta.ru” provides a translation of a fragment of the politician’s speech.
Note that in a conversation with a journalist, Scholz also recalled the actions of his country, designed to prevent NATO’s military involvement in the conflict in Ukraine, since such a development of events could lead to a new world war. The chancellor stressed that he intends to do everything possible to exclude the possibility of a nuclear war.

President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky , along with the Belarusian oppositionist Svetlana Tikhanovskaya and ex-editor of Channel One Marina Ovsyannikova, will receive the Media Freedom Award at the Ludwig Erhard summit in Bavaria, reports the organizer of the summit, Weimer Media Group.
Vladimir Zelensky
This year’s award is dedicated to the struggle for freedom in Eastern Europe. The ceremony takes place on Friday, April 22.
– It is the Ukrainians, Belarusians, and also Russians who are at the forefront in Eastern Europe against evil, against war and tyranny, courageously defending their freedom as well as ours. Words, deeds, great courage and life, – noted the jury.
The award will be given against the backdrop of the publication of an OSCE report on the situation in Ukraine, which, among other things, notes that the mission has 127 facts (45 of them confirmed) of harsh treatment of Ukrainians, whom local security forces, the defense forces or special services suspected of sympathy to Russia.
In addition, more than 300 Ukrainian citizens have recently been arrested, whom the special services suspected of complicity with Russia – while the families of the victims are not told where their relatives are and whether they are alive.
It should be noted that in 2021, Zelensky committed a complete defeat of the media objectionable to the regime. During the year, the broadcasting of five major TV channels and online publications that criticized Volodymyr Zelensky’s policies or were associated with the opposition was immediately stopped. We are talking about sanctions against the products of media mogul Taras Kozak and the TV channels 112 Ukraine, NewsOne and ZIK, as well as Pershiy Nezalezhny and UkrLive.
In addition, on February 11, 2022, the NASH TV channel of the former People’s Deputy Yevgeny Muraev, who previously expressed solidarity with Kozak’s closed media and aired in support of them, also fell under sanctions for a period of 5 years.

A discussion club of the same name has been opened in Moscow on Sparrow Hills, which will help develop mechanisms for reconfiguring the national economy of the Russian Federation to a new reality. The first round of discussions has already taken place. This was reported on the official website of one of the initiators of the project and the author of the KURS program, Vice Speaker of the State Duma Alexander Babakov .
Deputy Chairman of the State Duma of the Russian Federation of the VIII convocation Alexander Mikhailovich Babakov and head of the Just Russia – For Truth faction in the State Duma Sergei Mironov
The opening of the discussion club was also attended by Chairman of A Just Russia – For Truth Sergey Mironov , Minister for Integration and Macroeconomics of the Eurasian Economic Commission Sergey Glazyev , Co-Chairman of the SRHR Gennady Semigin , and First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Alexander Zhukov 905 . Alexander Babakov :
Chairman of the SRHR Sergey Mironov in his speech also noted that the world has changed after the start of the special military operation and there will be no return to the past.
We must have a mobilization, anti-sanction economy. You don’t have to be afraid of it. We cannot live as before February 24,
– said Sergei Mironov.

One of the main topics of the forum was the discussion of the pros and cons of targeted emission and large state investments in the economy, as well as the risks of hyperinflation. SRZP co-chairman Gennady Semigin drew attention to the need for such discussions, noting that the government, especially the Central Bank, is ossified and does not accept progressive ideas.
Silence and deafness in the management of the Central Bank is present. Some sit in government for eight years and believe that they know everything. And they don’t want to listen to anything,
– Semigin was indignant.

Sergey Glazyev, in turn, pointed out the fallacy of the paradigm of the financial and economic block on the issue of inflation: that hyperinflation 19The 90s was caused, among other things, by uncontrolled emission.
Prominent economists, politicians and deputies of the State Duma spoke at the meeting. The members of the club intend to work together to develop effective solutions to create a sovereign, growing and stable economic system in Russia.

The German edition of Welt published the opinion of the columnist Elmar Krekeler , who accused the Russian serial cartoon of propaganda Masha and the Bear . He stated that the girl Masha looks like “the crying old women of Mariupol”, and the work as a whole transmits the image of “Western decline”.
A frame from the cartoon “Masha and the Bear”
At the same time, as writes URA . RU , the second protagonist of the series, the Bear, was subjected to the most ruthless criticism from the German. According to the journalist, the creators deliberately presented him as “sweet and tolerant” so that “children in the West do not hate Russia so much.”
Cultural analysis led the author of the article to the conclusion that, in addition to old women, Masha is called upon to personify “Western decline” in the work, since she is periodically harshly criticized by a conservative (Medved). At the same time, Masha appears before the public as an “anarchist champion of feminism.”
Krekeler himself, obviously, is well versed in the methods of PR and propaganda, as he very far-sightedly advises the authorities not to impose a ban on Masha and the Bear, which will only help “Russian propaganda.”
In addition, the German journalist expressed the bold idea that it is not necessary to ban Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy or Tchaikovsky . Nevertheless, both Russian writers and Russian composers are now successfully banned in the West. The absurdity of Russophobic statements at the same time often has a pronounced caricature character and borders on the level of artistic expressiveness with the masterful images created by Russian satirists.

State Duma deputy Oleg Matveychev proposes limiting the work of grocery hypermarkets on Sundays in order to create an incentive for the development of farmers’ markets.
Photo: yarnovosti.com
According to Rossiyskaya Gazeta, a letter containing proposals on this matter has already been sent to the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade Denis Manturov .
According to the parliamentarian, if people are temporarily banned from going to hypermarkets, citizens will begin to visit convenience stores and fairs more often. This is likely to give impetus to the development of subsidiary farms.
Matveychev believes that the work of food fairs now either comes down to the theme of “ecological food”, or has a local character. At the same time, weekend fairs are open in the capital, attended by farmers from more than 40 regions of the country.

My daughter has attended Bumble Bee for six months as of this review. She began when she was 5 months old and has thrived under the care of the wonderful staff, who are flexible, well-trained, patient and kind.
The best endorsement is this: not once has my daughter cried at being dropped off, and she often cries at being picked up, because she doesn’t want to leave her friends. She is always excited to be there and loves going to school.

I want to recommend Bumble Bee Daycare as a great option for infant and toddler daycare in Park Slope. Our son was at Bumble Bee for 23 months before moving onto a pre-school.
During his time at Bumble Bee, our son went from being an infant to a toddler and we went through all the changes in nap schedules and feeding routines that goes along with growing up. The staff was great at communicating with us during these transitions. We loved getting feedback from them and they were very open to our needs as parents.
The facilities themselves are wonderful. There’s a backyard for the kids to enjoy and there are two floors, so there’s some separation of children by age. They’re great at communicating via email. They send menus for the week (they cook several meals a day for the kids), general announcements and reminders and even the occasional photo from that day’s activities. Those are always a nice treat.
Eunice Lee and her staff have become part of our extended family over the last 23 months. We’ve watched our son grow into a funny, polite and charming child (we’re biased) and we think Bumble Bee had a lot to do with that. Even though our boy will be headed to a new school, we look forward to him returning on the occasional day here and there when school is closed.
If you’re looking through daycare options, I highly recommend checking out Bumble Bee Daycare to see if it’s right for you.
PSP Member – Park Slope Parents
Length of Time: Full 1-2 years I can’t say enough good things about our experiences at Bumble Bee Daycare. My wife and I started sending our son there in December when he was 8 months old. Since then, we’ve watched him go from a crawler to a walker and a babbler to a talker. Our son has been at Bumble Bee Daycare long enough for his nap schedule and feeding routine to change a couple of times. Each of those transitions was handled extremely well by the staff. They communicated the progress, welcomed our suggestions and we welcomed theirs. We are very happy with how flexible and cooperative they have been with us. We appreciate being able to communicate with the staff via email. It’s really convenient and we absolutely love when they send pictures of our son during the day. It’s a small thing, but it’s so great to see what he’s up to (especially when he’s playing in the backyard). Overall, we highly recommend Bumble Bee Daycare. The caring staff recognizes and appreciates the unique personalities of every child they encounter. Do You Recommend? Highly recommend

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.
Bumblebee insect description for children. The life of bumblebees in nature. Feeding and reproduction of bumblebees
Everyone knows that bees bite. But not everyone knows whether a bumblebee bites or not and whether its bite is dangerous for humans. This insect can sting if provoked.
About bumblebees and bumblebee venom
A bumblebee is a sessile-bellied insect from the bee family. There are about 300 types of these insects on the planet. They are not afraid of the cold and can quickly warm up their body to 40°C, which enables them to be the first to start collecting nectar in the morning, when it is still cool and the bees are inactive.
Bumblebees are yellow-black, often striped. There are insects with orange or red stripes, and there are individuals just black.
Large bumblebee nests consist of 150-200 insects. They can choose old stumps, cracks in the ground, abandoned mouse holes for nests, and also build dwellings on sandy cliffs. It is difficult to find a bumblebee nest – insects hide it well.
The sting of a bumblebee is devoid of notches and rarely remains in the body of the victim, which is different from the sting of a bee.
The inside of a bumblebee’s sting is hollow, like a needle in a syringe. Through it, during a bite, an insect lets in a microscopic portion of poison that causes pain, overthrow and irritation.
Bumblebee venom is a protein mixture that causes an allergic reaction in many people due to the insect sting.
Bumblebee venom contains serotonin, which lowers blood pressure, resulting in shock.
However, this is strictly personal. Most people survive insect bites without problems. If a bumblebee has bitten for the first time, then most likely there will be no allergic reaction, because there are no antibodies to this poison in the body. Often they appear with subsequent bites. Usually, an allergic reaction makes itself felt in the first half an hour after the bite and is accompanied by itching, redness and swelling of the whole body, vomiting, nausea or diarrhea, signs of suffocation may appear.
Later, fever, convulsions, chills, joint pain, fainting may be added to the above symptoms. With such symptoms, immediate hospitalization is required, otherwise the consequences may be unpredictable.
Simultaneous bites of a large number of insects are of great danger. A toxic reaction may develop, provoking complications in the work of the heart and central nervous system.
Wasps, bumblebees and bees are especially dangerous for people with allergies, as well as for pregnant women and young children.
The possibility of an allergic reaction to insect bites increases many times over.
Apply ice to the bite to slow down the spread of the poison throughout the body
If the sting remains in the body, it must be pulled out with treated tweezers. Do not try to squeeze it out with your fingers so as not to infect the victim.
The wound should immediately be treated with hydrogen peroxide, alcohol, vinegar, or put cotton wool soaked in one of the listed products.
An ice cube or cold compress should be applied to the bite, especially if it is the eye area or other sensitive area. Cold will relieve swelling, reduce pain and slow down the absorption of poison. To extract the poison, it is necessary to attach a piece of sugar moistened with water to the damaged area.
Give the victim plenty of liquids, preferably hot tea with sugar. If the victim does not get better, symptoms of an allergic reaction appear, then a doctor should be called immediately.
Treatment of insect bites at home
In most cases, bumblebee bites are successfully treated at home. For example, you can put a fresh leaf of plantain or parsley to the injured place and replace it with a new one every 2 hours.
A chopped onion, an apple, a raw potato or 2 cloves of garlic can be applied to the damaged area, mixed with honey and this mixture applied to the bite. The bandage must be changed twice a day.
Lemon juice will also help, namely a compress from it.
You can also dilute baking soda with water until a slurry is formed and apply to the affected area or prepare a soda solution (1 tsp per glass of water), soak cotton wool in it and apply for a quarter of an hour.
Grind activated charcoal, add water to form a slurry, put on the bite and cover with a film to avoid rapid drying.
If activated charcoal is not available, apply Validol moistened with water to the damaged area. You can also use medications, for example, Fenistil gel, which successfully relieves irritation. Damage should be lubricated with gel 3 times a day. The medicine begins its action immediately after application. If bitten by insects, do not drink alcohol, as this leads to an increase in swelling.
Often people unwittingly provoke insects by waving their arms to try to drive them away. Such behavior, as well as the smell of perfume, alcohol, fried meat, only attract and unnerve bumblebees.
When should I go to the hospital?
If several bumblebees or bees have bitten at the same time.
When a child or elderly person is injured.
If the bite occurred in the eyeball or mucous membrane of the mouth.
When previous insect bites caused an allergic reaction.
There are symptoms of infection: severe chills, swelling, pain, the bite becomes purulent.
When bitten by a bumblebee, it is less painful than a bee or wasp sting, because its venom is not as dangerous as bee or wasp venom. In addition, a wasp can sting several times.
Conclusion on the topic
Knowing that bumblebees bite, do not provoke these insects. Try to bypass the places where their nests are located. Where bees, bumblebees or wasps are present in large numbers, it is undesirable to eat sweets, watermelons, melons, and drink sweet drinks.
Although bumblebees bite, do not destroy them, because they pollinate plants well, and their honey contains protein, sucrose, many minerals and is very useful.
After a decade of dominance in the catalogs of the original variegated and bright varieties of tulips, trends began to change. At exhibitions, the world’s best designers offer to recall the classics and pay homage to the charming white tulips. Sparkling under the warm rays of the spring sun, they look especially festive in the garden. Meeting spring after a long wait, tulips seem to remind you that white is not only the color of snow, but also the joyful celebration of flowering.
Despite the fact that cabbage is one of the most popular vegetables, not all gardeners can grow its seedlings, especially beginners. In the conditions of the apartment they are hot and dark. In this case, it is impossible to obtain high-quality seedlings. And without strong, healthy seedlings, it is difficult to count on a good harvest. Gardeners with experience know that it is better to sow cabbage for seedlings in greenhouses or greenhouses. And some even grow cabbage by direct sowing of seeds in the ground.
Flower growers tirelessly discover new indoor plants, replacing one with another. And here the conditions of a particular room are of no small importance, because the requirements for their content in plants are different. Lovers of beautiful flowering plants often face difficulties. Indeed, in order for the flowering to be long and plentiful, such specimens require special care. There are not very many unpretentious plants blooming in rooms, and one of these is streptocarpus.
Calendula (marigold) – a flower that stands out among others with its bright color. Low bushes with delicate orange inflorescences can be found on the side of the road, in the meadow, in the front garden next to the house, or even in vegetable beds. Calendula is so widespread in our area that it seems that it has always grown here. Read about interesting decorative varieties of calendula, as well as the use of calendula in cooking and medicine in our article.
I think many will agree that we perceive the wind well only in a romantic aspect: we are sitting in a cozy warm house, and the wind is raging outside the window … In fact, the wind that walks through our plots is a problem and nothing in it no good. By creating windbreaks with plants, we break a strong wind into several weak streams and significantly weaken its destructive power. How to protect the site from the wind will be discussed in this article.
Modern ferns are those rare plants of antiquity, which, despite the passage of time and all sorts of cataclysms, not only survived, but in many respects were able to maintain their former appearance. In a room format, of course, it is not possible to grow any of the representatives of ferns, but some species have successfully adapted to living indoors. They look great as single plants or adorn a group of decorative foliage flowers.
Pilaf with pumpkin and meat – Azerbaijani plov, which differs from the traditional oriental plov in the way of cooking. All ingredients for this recipe are cooked separately. Rice is boiled with ghee, saffron and turmeric. The meat is fried separately until golden brown, pumpkin slices as well. Separately, prepare onions with carrots. Then everything is laid in layers in a cauldron or a thick-walled pan, a little water or broth is poured in and simmered over low heat for about half an hour.
Basil – a wonderful universal seasoning for meat, fish, soups and fresh salads – is well known to all lovers of Caucasian and Italian cuisine. However, upon closer inspection, basil greens are surprisingly versatile. For several seasons now, our family has been drinking fragrant basil tea with pleasure. In a flower bed with perennials and in flowerpots with annual flowers, a bright spicy plant also found a worthy place.
Thuja or juniper – which is better? Such a question can sometimes be heard in garden centers and in the market where these plants are sold. He, of course, is not entirely correct and correct. Well, it’s like asking which is better – night or day? Coffee or tea? Woman or man? Surely everyone will have their own answer and opinion. And yet … But what if we approach without prejudice and try to compare juniper and thuja according to certain objective parameters? Let’s try.
Red Cauliflower Cream Soup with Crispy Smoked Bacon is a delicious, tender and creamy soup that adults and children will love. If you are preparing a dish for the whole family, including toddlers, then do not add a lot of spices, although many modern children are not at all against spicy flavors.
Bacon for serving can be prepared in different ways – fry in a pan, as in this recipe, or bake in the oven on parchment for about 20 minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees.
For some, the time of sowing seeds for seedlings is a long-awaited and pleasant chore, for some it is a difficult necessity, and someone thinks about whether it is not easier to buy ready-made seedlings on the market or from friends? Whatever it was, even if you refused to grow vegetables, for sure, you still have to sow something. These are flowers, and perennials, conifers and much more. A seedling is still a seedling, no matter what you plant.
Lover of humid air and one of the smallest and rarest orchids, Pafinia is a real star for most orchid growers. Its flowering rarely lasts longer than a week, but it is an unforgettable sight. Unusual striped patterns on the huge flowers of a modest orchid want to be considered endlessly. In room culture, pafinia is rightly credited to the ranks of species that are difficult to grow. It became fashionable only with the spread of interior terrariums.
Pumpkin marmalade with ginger is a warming sweet that can be prepared almost all year round. Pumpkin has a long shelf life – sometimes I manage to save a few vegetables until summer, fresh ginger and lemons are always available these days. Lemon can be substituted for lime or orange for a variety of flavors – variety in sweets is always nice. Ready marmalade is laid out in dry jars, it can be stored at room temperature, but it is always more useful to prepare fresh products.
In 2014, the Japanese company Takii seed introduced a petunia with a striking salmon-orange petal color. By association with the bright colors of the southern sunset sky, the unique hybrid was named African Sunset (“African Sunset”). Needless to say, this petunia instantly won the hearts of gardeners and was in great demand. But in the last two years, the curiosity has suddenly disappeared from shop windows. Where did the orange petunia go?
Our family loves sweet peppers, so we plant them every year. Most of the varieties that I grow have been tested by me for more than one season, I cultivate them all the time. And every year I try to try something new. Pepper is a heat-loving and rather whimsical plant. About varietal and hybrid varieties of tasty and productive sweet pepper, which grows well with me, and will be discussed further. I live in central Russia.
Bumblebee nest: where bumblebees live
Bumblebees are a genus of hymenoptera (Hymenoptera) of the bee family. Only about 300 of their species are known in the world.
More than 80 species of the genus Bombus are distributed in almost all parts of the world except Australia.
Where do bumblebees live and how do they create families? The answers to these questions will be given in the article.
Habitats
Where do bumblebees live? It’s easier to say where they don’t live. The ability to maintain a high body temperature allowed these insects to live far to the north. Bumblebees penetrate to Greenland, Chukotka, Novaya Zemlya and Alaska. What is the reason for the cold resistance of these insects? Their body is characterized by the ability of thermoregulation.
And at the same time, their peculiarity does not allow them to get along in the tropics. Bumblebees live in North America, in Northern Eurasia and in mountain regions. Only two species of bumblebee are found in the Brazilian tropics.
Brief characteristics of insects
Bumblebees (earth bees) belong to the family Apidae, like common honey bees.
In its way of life and body structure, this large insect is close to bees. True, the way of life and nests are different.
Males, unlike females, have long antennae, they are also larger than worker bumblebees and have copulatory mites.
Their body is large, reaches a length of 3.5 cm, rather densely covered with hairs. The coloring combines black, red, white and yellow stripes.
The lower, white part of the body ends with a small sting, imperceptible in the normal state. The hind legs have spurs.
The bumblebee’s eyes are almost on the same line.
Both the queen and workers have a collecting apparatus. It consists of a brush and a basket.
Queens are larger than males and have a stinger, as well as workers (females are underdeveloped).
Bumblebees are more friendly insects, they sting very rarely compared to bees. Little is known about the chemical composition of bumblebee venom. It has not been studied enough.
Lifestyle, behavior
I wonder where bumblebees live? Bumblebees, like other insects, are active almost all summer, but this period is different for all species. It depends on their habitats (in high or low latitudes).
A characteristic feature of bumblebees that distinguishes them from other pollinators (wasps and bees) is that they are able to work in the cold (to collect nectar), at temperatures up to 0°C. In this regard, they go farther than other pollinators to the north.
Those species that live far to the north, with a short one-month summer, do not have time to create a family and live as solitary insects.
In temperate climates, the created family lives one summer. In tropical zones, some species organize perennial families.
Where do bumblebees live in winter? During this period, they live in underground shelters.
Fertilized queens overwinter for the most part in holes dug by them in the ground, and in spring they build nests.
How and where do bumblebees nest and live? These insects have an amazing rare feature. Unlike other similar insects, all bumblebee larvae develop and feed in one common chamber. In free cells, the female creates reserves of honey and perga (honey dough) for the period of bad weather.
Peculiarities of social life
Just like bees, bumblebees are social insects. They organize huge families of up to 200 individuals.
In such communities where bumblebees live, there is a surprisingly clear distribution of duties for absolutely each of its members.
Under natural conditions, the female usually lays 200-400 eggs to hatch workers, then she begins to lay eggs, from which females and males develop.
Many species have so-called small queens (this is the average between queens and workers). The latter, together with workers and small queens, build nests, collect honey and pollen (food) and lay unfertilized eggs, from which only males develop. And from the very last eggs laid by the uterus, new queens are hatched, which, in turn, are fertilized by males.
Only old queens remain for wintering, as the old ones die, males, working individuals and small queens also die. The whole community is scattered.
What is a bumblebee nest like? Where do bumblebees live?
Fertilized queens, as mentioned above, mostly hibernate in dug holes in the ground and only in the spring, during the thaw, they begin to build their nests. This dwelling is an irregular oval cell formed from coarse reddish or brown wax. The nest is placed between stones, in the ground under moss, etc.
Bumblebees often use wormholes or mouseholes.
Usually only the very first cells of the nest consist of wax, and then the empty cocoons of pupae serve as the next cells. All cells are also filled with coarse honey and flower dust.
Usually there are up to 200 individuals in bumblebee nests, less often – up to 500. True, people in artificial nests with heating managed to get families with up to 1000 individuals.
Reproduction process, nutrition
For almost the entire period of summer, the queens lay their fertilized eggs. Subsequently, workers emerge from them, and then small queens. Usually, several eggs are laid in each cell where bumblebees live. Some hatched larvae die due to lack of food.
Full larval development takes about 12 days. Then they spin their own cocoons, where they turn into pupae. This period lasts about 2 weeks.
As they grow, the larvae gradually enlarge and move apart the cell. And the female and working individuals constantly put in order, repair and correct the dwelling. After 30 days, working individuals hatch in the nest.
From the moment the first workers leave, the number of people living in the nest has increased rapidly. And food supplies are growing, abandoned empty cells are used to store them. And this is one of the features of the life of bumblebees. They never reuse the cell twice in order to hatch juveniles. Therefore, old nests always look rather sloppy. Insects build new ones on such dilapidated cells, without observing any order.
Insects feed on plant nectar. To do this, they collect it from blossoming flowers of various types.
In conclusion, a few interesting things about bumblebees
Often on hot days, a bumblebee can be seen at the entrance to the nest, fluttering its wings. In this way, he ventilates the nest.
“Wool” helps the bumblebee to keep warm – it prevents heat loss and reduces it by half.
Bumblebee is capable of speeds up to 18 km/h in flight.
Bumblebee venom, unlike bee venom, does not harm humans, since this insect does not leave a sting in human skin. But it can sting many times.
There is an industry called bumblebee farming – breeding bumblebees for agricultural purposes (pollination of various crops in order to increase their yield).
Exposing! Shouldn’t a bumblebee fly? November 30th, 2016
This statement was born at the beginning of the 20th century, when the aircraft industry was developing rapidly. Scientists of that time applied flight conditions to the insect according to the laws of aerodynamics (calculating the force intended to lift heavy liners into the air).
Why did you choose a furry insect? The bumblebee has small wings in relation to its overweight body mass. This attracted the attention of scientists.
Mathematical calculations were suitable for bees, flies, butterflies, but for bumblebees this application turned out to be impossible according to the laws of physics. The mysterious insect refuted all the mathematical conclusions of scientists. What did they do? They tried to fit the bumblebee flight into the formulas for calculating the lift force of an airliner, forgetting that an airplane cannot flap its wings.
As a result, having received a paradoxical conclusion about the impossibility of flight of an earthen bee, scientists stated that “a bumblebee cannot fly, but it flies, violating the laws of physics. ” But the furry insect did not study physics and did not sit at lectures. Every day bumblebees, joyfully buzzing their wings, showed how powerless science is.
Why does the bumblebee fly?
Science developed. The flight of an insect, the speed with which and how exactly it flies, was thoroughly filmed on camera. The flapping of the wings was viewed in slow motion, the trajectory of movement was studied. What conclusions did you get?
When the wings work intensively, their edges form air turbulences. The curls are removed as soon as the wing stops flapping. These air swirls have different air flow densities.
The difference in air pressure creates a lifting force, which lifts the bombus into the air.
The same butterfly or mosquito cannot release air turbulences, their flight is based on gliding in the air mass flow. The bumblebee flies contrary to the laws of aerial analysis, because its working wings give rise to great aerodynamic force. And the reciprocating wingbeats made studies of insect locomotion too complex and unpredictable for analytics.
A movable amplitude airfoil generates much more lift than a rigidly fixed wing. And the wings of a bumblebee simultaneously create not only reciprocating, but also rhythmic-oscillatory movements (the bombus wing makes 300-400 such strokes per second).
The evidence base was brought in the middle of the 20th century by a woman physicist from Cornell University Zheng Jane Wang. She spent many hours simulating on a super-powerful computer the scheme of motion of the vortex flows created by the wings of the bumblebee, and came to the final conclusion: “The bumblebee does not violate the laws of aerodynamics. Its flight depends on wing vortices. And when an airplane flies, the air flows around it.”
Zheng noted that the myth of the flight of the earthen bee is the result of an illiterate understanding of non-stationary gas-viscous dynamics by aircraft design engineers.
A liner built with strict bumblebee proportions would never take off. The principles of operation of the wings of an earthen bee cannot be applied to the aircraft industry. But in the future, if a model of helicopters with flexible, elastic blades appears, the flight of a bumblebee will come in handy for aircraft designers!

Bumblebees live on all continents except Antarctica. In the Northern Hemisphere, they are distributed mainly in temperate latitudes, but the habitat of some species extends beyond the Arctic Circle (for example, the polar bumblebee (lat. Bombus polaris), the northern bumblebee (lat. Bombus heperboreus)). They are found in the tundra, in Chukotka, Alaska, Novaya Zemlya, Svalbard, Greenland and others …
Representatives of the bumblebee genus collect pollen and nectar from many plant species, that is, they are polytrophic. To feed the larvae, bumblebees use not only fresh nectar, but also honey, which they make themselves. Bumblebee honey is thinner than bee honey, lighter and lighter, less sweet and odorous. It contains more than 20% water and does not store well.

Brief information about bumblebees will tell you a lot of useful information about these amazing creatures that play an important role in nature. The story about bumblebees can be supplemented with interesting facts.
Bumblebee information
The bumblebee is a flying insect and a close relative of the common honey bee.
Scientists identify more than 300 species of bumblebees . It is known that they first appeared on the planet about 30 million years ago. Insects live in North America, in northern Africa and Eurasia. More recently, they have been introduced to New Zealand and Australia. Furry insects can be found in the forests, and in the mountains, and in the fields.
Bumblebee: Description
Bumblebee looks very similar to an ordinary bee, which each of you must have seen. Only bigger and bigger. The plump body of the insect is covered with thick hairs. The back is dark in color, often with yellow stripes. More rarely, the stripes can be red or orange, and sometimes completely black bumblebees can be found. Their body ends with a sting – smooth and without notches. On the back there are 2 transparent, small wings. The proboscis is long and with its help insects extract nectar and pollen of flowering plants.
Way of life
The hairy insect family consists of a queen and workers. It is created only for the summer period. Nests are made in abandoned burrows, in the ground, in moss tussocks, squirrel nests and birdhouses. In the spring, the female bumblebee finds a place for a temporary family. Outside, it is “decorated” with moss or dry grass, making a round wax cell inside. It places a supply of food in it and lays eggs. Having sealed a cell with offspring, she builds many new ones around it, according to the principle of honey bees.
When the larvae hatch, they eat food. The female gnaws a hole in the cell so that they come out. After two weeks, they, after weaving oval silk cocoons, turn into pupae. Working small bumblebees hatch from them, which collect food, complete the nest, feed other larvae. The queen rarely leaves the nest, as she constantly lays eggs. In autumn, females and males capable of breeding are hatched.
Bumblebees develop in one generation. Males that have fertilized females soon die. Working bumblebees on their hind legs have an apparatus for collecting pollen from a “brush” and a “basket”.
We hope that this important information about bumblebees has helped you prepare for the lesson. And you can add a story about bumblebees through the comment form below.
Let’s talk about bumblebees. The bumblebee is a flying insect, a very close relative of the common honey bee.
Outwardly, the bumblebee is very similar to an ordinary bee, only it is larger, up to 2.5 cm or more in length, its plump body is densely covered with hairs. The back is dark, most often with yellow stripes, but sometimes the stripes are orange or red, and pure black specimens without stripes are rare. The body of the insect ends with a smooth sting without notches, which is not visible in the normal state. There are 2 small transparent wings on the back.
In total, scientists have counted more than 300 species of bumblebees. They appeared on Earth about 30 million years ago! They live in the northern part of Eurasia and Africa, in North America. Not so long ago, these furry insects were brought to Australia and New Zealand. They feel great in the mountains, and in the forests, and in the fields.
How bumblebees live
They build nests in the ground, leaf litter, hollows, bird nests, mole, mouse, squirrel holes. Each family has up to 200-300 individuals: queens that lay eggs, they are the largest – an average of 26 mm; workers who complete and repair the nest, get food, they are the smallest – up to 19 mm; males that fertilize the queens have an average size – up to 22 mm. One of the working bumblebees is a trumpeter. Every morning he is the first to fly out of the nest and wakes the rest with a special buzz.
Bumblebees (lat. Bombus) are a genus of hymenopteran insects that are close relatives of honey bees. About 300 species of bumblebees live in Northern Eurasia, North America, North Africa, as well as in the mountains of some other regions.
Bumblebees are one of the most cold-resistant insects. They are able, by quickly and often contracting the muscles of the chest, to quickly warm up their body to the required 40 ° C. This allows them to fly out early in the morning and collect the first nectar when the air is still not warm enough, and gives bumblebees a certain competitive advantage over other insect species. Helps the bumblebee to warm up his “wool” – it reduces heat loss by half.
In flight, 90% of all energy is converted into heat, and therefore the temperature of the flying bumblebee is constant: 36″C at an ambient temperature of 5°C, and 45°C at 35°C in air. At higher temperatures, the bumblebee cannot fly due to overheating. Although bumblebees have cooling mechanisms: a flying bumblebee releases a drop of liquid from its mouth, which evaporates and cools its head.
Bumblebee is unable to maintain high body temperature when sitting still.
Bumblebees live in colonies of 50-200 individuals each. The colony consists of three types of individuals: females, workers (immature females) and males. The founder of the family is the female uterus, this is one of the few females that have overwintered and fertilized in autumn. In early spring (end of April-May), the queen alone begins to build a nest. A feature of bumblebees is that, unlike other social bees, all larvae develop and feed together, in one chamber. Under normal conditions, the female, having laid 200-400 eggs that give workers, begins to lay eggs, from which females and males develop.
It has been noticed for a very long time that a “trumpeter” appears in bumblebee nests before dawn, which, as it was believed, raises fellow tribesmen to work by humming. But it turned out that he was just shivering from the cold. After all, in the pre-dawn hours, the temperature near the surface of the soil drops sharply. The nest cools down and, in order to warm it, the bumblebees have to work hard with their pectoral muscles. On hot days, you can see a bumblebee at the entrance to the nest, fluttering its wings. He is ventilating the nest.
Bumblebees, like bees, have poison, but, unlike bees, bumblebees do not leave a sting in human skin. And they can sting, respectively, many times in a row.
Due to the low aggressiveness of bumblebees, they can be widely used in garden plots. There is even an industry called bumblebee breeding – breeding bumblebees for pollination of crops in order to increase their yield.
An overwintered female bumblebee (queen) finds a nest site in early spring. Having surrounded the nest outside with moss or dry blades of grass, the female makes the first round wax cell inside. She puts a small supply of food in the cell – a mixture of pollen with honey – and lays a few eggs. Having sealed this cell, the uterus builds the next ones.
There is a common misconception that the bumblebee flies against the laws of aerodynamics. It probably arose at the beginning of the 20th century when trying to apply lift calculations intended for aircraft to a bumblebee. Physicist Zheng Jane Wang from Cornell University (USA) proved that the flight of insects does not violate physical laws. This required many hours of supercomputer simulation of the complex movement of air around fast-moving wings. Wang points out that the old bumblebee myth is simply a consequence of aeronautical engineers’ poor understanding of non-stationary viscous gas dynamics.
The time of appearance of bumblebees is not exactly known. The earliest fossils of the genus Bombus date back to the Oligocene (38-26 Ma), but the exact time of the group’s origin is still unknown. The fossil of a bumblebee is a very rare find, since it is very difficult for such a large insect to get into the resin in order to be completely wrapped in it and harden into amber. Finds point to Asia as the place where bumblebees first appeared. Until now, the greatest variety of bumblebees lives in this part of the world.
An arthropod is called a bumblebee. It got its name from the sound it makes while flying. These insects are brightly colored, large, beautiful. They are able to carry a lot of pollen. About what bumblebees are in nature, described in the article.
Description
The body of the insect is thick and heavy. Their wings are small and transparent. The wings make about 400 beats per second. The female’s head is elongated, broadly rounded at the occiput, while the male’s is triangular and rounded. The insect bites, using its jaws for defense.
The bumblebee has a proboscis with which it collects nectar. All species can have different lengths, for example, a small earthen bumblebee has a body of 7-10 mm, and a garden bumblebee – 18-19 mm. Insects have 6 legs. The hairs that cover the body are usually black, white, yellow, orange, reddish or gray in color.
Food
Where does the bumblebee live, what does it eat? These insects collect pollen and nectar from plants. It turns out that they are polytrophic. To feed the larvae, bumblebees use fresh nectar and honey, which they produce on their own. The second product is more liquid compared to the bee product, as well as light and light. It contains over 20% water.
Accommodation
Where do bumblebees live? They live on all continents except Antarctica. In the Northern Hemisphere, there are more of them in temperate latitudes, and their habitat goes beyond the Arctic Circle.
Bumblebees are considered the most cold-resistant representatives of bees. They cannot survive in the hot tropics. The body temperature can be up to 40 degrees, which is associated with a rapid contraction of the chest muscles. This results in a loud buzzing sound. So the bumblebee gets warm. When it stops moving, it cools down.
Location of nests
Where do bumblebees live? Nests may be underground. Insects settle in rodent burrows and molehills. In the minks of rodents there is material that can insulate the bumblebee nest – wool, dry grass. Nests can also be on the ground. Where do bumblebees live if their dwellings are on the surface? Some species live in grass, moss tussocks, bird nests.
Where else do bumblebees live? Some nests are located above the ground. It can be hollow trees, birdhouses, buildings. The shape of the nests are different, depending on the cavity used by the bumblebee. Ground dwellings are usually insulated with dry grass, moss, and wax. They are made by bumblebees thanks to the abdominal glands, and then they clean off thin wax strips from the belly with their paws, put them in growth, knead and use everything you need to sculpt. The optimum temperature in the nests is 30-35 degrees.
In nature
Bumblebees are considered social insects. Like all bees, they live in colonies, which include:
Large breeding queens.
Small working bumblebees.
Males.
If there are no queens, working males lay eggs. The family lives for 1 year – from spring to autumn. It includes fewer individuals than a bee – about 100-200, but sometimes 500.
Lifespan
Usually the lifespan of an insect is 2 weeks. They die due to various reasons, including rapid wear and tear when collecting food. Males can live no more than a month, they die after mating. In females, wintering begins after fertilization. Then they lay eggs, feed the larvae, and then die.
Bites and consequences
This insect is considered peaceful. It is not aggressive and only bites when defending, such as closing the entrance to the nest. But such a bumblebee bite is weak and not harmful. Females sting when threatened. The sting does not remain in the body, compared to bees, so bumblebees do not die after being bitten. But the poison causes pain, itching, redness. There may be swelling. Symptoms may persist for several days.
Insect venom is similar to bee venom, but contains fewer components that can cause a toxic reaction. For most healthy people, this is not dangerous. It is better not to allow a bumblebee bite, but if this happens, first aid should be given:
Clean the painful area with an antiseptic, alcohol or soap and water.
Apply a cold compress.
Provide plenty of warm fluids.
Eliminate itching with an antihistamine such as Suprastin.
At home, you can remove the effects of a bite with folk remedies. Compresses from gruel with soda, an aspirin or validol tablet diluted in water will help. Suitable infusions of tansy or chamomile. Chopped leaves of parsley, plantain, dandelion have a therapeutic effect. Compresses need to be changed after 2 hours. An excellent effect is given by chopped potatoes, onions, apples. With a strong bite in the neck, eyes, lips with the appearance of an allergy, you should consult a doctor.
Bumblebees are considered important pollinators of meadow, forest and agricultural crops. Many insect species cross-pollinate several times faster than bees. They pollinate clover, alfalfa, legumes.
Ants are harmful to bumblebees. They can steal honey, eggs, larvae. Therefore, insects prefer to build nests above the ground, away from anthills, and also underground. Wasps and brachicoma flies can steal honey. Cannabis flies are dangerous for them. Bumblebee offspring can be destroyed by the caterpillars of the amophia moth butterfly.
Thus, bumblebees are unique insects that are beneficial to nature. And they can cause harm only in self-defense.
The Bumblebee genus is close to honey bees in many respects.
About 300 species of bumblebees from about 40 subgenera are known in the world, living in North America, North Eurasia, North Africa, as well as in the mountains of some other regions.
Bumblebees were absent in Australia.
Bumblebees sting less painfully than . In addition, they are much more peaceful, and less agile. Therefore, their nests are often attacked and eat bumblebee honey, larvae and pupae.
During the work of strong pectoral muscles, a bumblebee releases a lot of heat, and its body temperature rises to 40 °C, exceeding the ambient temperature by 20-30 °C. Therefore, sometimes these animals are called warm-blooded. This allows the bumblebees to fly out early in the morning and collect the first nectar when the air is still not warm enough.
The bumblebee does not have to take off to keep warm, it can quickly contract its muscles while remaining in place, producing a characteristic humming sound. Bumblebees are one of the most cold-resistant insects.
The rapid increase in body temperature gives bumblebees a certain competitive advantage over other insect species.
“Warm-blooded” allows bumblebees to live in very harsh climates – high in the mountains and in the tundra.
Bumblebees are social insects. Usually in large bumblebee nests there are 100 – 200 individuals.
The nest (Bombidarium) is made in the litter, hollows, in the soil, abandoned nests of rodents or birds. squirrel nest is suitable for this purpose,
Bumblebee families are formed only for the summer. Their females are divided into larger fertile queens and small sterile workers who perform all the main work in the nest.
An overwintered female bumblebee (queen) finds a nest site in early spring. Having surrounded the nest outside with moss or dry blades of grass, the female makes the first round wax cell inside. She puts a small supply of food in the cell – a mixture of pollen with honey – and lays a few eggs. Having sealed this cell, the uterus builds the next ones.
Bumblebee cells are not as regular as those of honey bees.
In the meantime, the larvae hatch in the first cell. When they eat the food supply, the female in the cell gnaws a hole through which she feeds the larvae. After one and a half to two weeks, the larvae begin to weave oval silk cocoons and turn into pupae. Smaller non-breeding females emerge from the pupae, which immediately get to work: they collect food and feed the larvae with it, and complete the nest.
Old cocoons are randomly arranged in one floor at the bottom of the nest. They serve to store honey reserves. There are no honeycombs, like bees or wasps, in a bumblebee’s nest.
After the appearance of the first working bumblebees, the queen rarely leaves the nest (her main duty is to lay new eggs).
Unlike honey bees, the stocks of pollen and honey in the nests of bumblebees are small, they are needed only so that its population does not starve when bad weather sets in.
In cold weather, bumblebees “buzz” together in the nest, raising the temperature to a comfortable 30-35 °C.
Females and males capable of breeding are hatched from the laid eggs closer to autumn. Males, having fertilized females, soon die, and females overwinter in order to establish a new family next spring.
Bumblebees develop in one generation.
The time of appearance of bumblebees is not exactly known. The earliest fossils of the genus Bombus date back to the Oligocene (38 – 26 million years), but the exact time of the group’s origin is still unknown. The fossil of a bumblebee is a very rare find, since it is very difficult for such a large insect to get into the resin in order to be completely wrapped in it and harden into amber. The finds point to Asia as the place where bumblebees first appeared. Until now, the greatest variety of bumblebees lives in this part of the world.
Bumblebees rush tirelessly from flower to flower and therefore are the most valuable pollinators. They are especially important as clover pollinators. When clover began to be cultivated in Australia, it bloomed well, but did not produce seeds. This continued until bumblebees were brought there from Europe.

Eggplants are tall, upright plants with wide dark green leaves and large fruits that create a special mood in the beds. And in the kitchen, they are a popular product for a wide variety of dishes: eggplants are fried, stewed and canned. Of course, growing a decent crop in the middle lane and to the north is not an easy task. But subject to the agrotechnical rules of cultivation, it is quite accessible even to beginners. Especially if you grow eggplant in a greenhouse.
Noble lush greenery, unpretentiousness, the ability to purify the air from dust and pathogens make nephrolepis one of the most popular indoor ferns. There are many types of nephrolepis, but any of them can become a real decoration of the room, and it does not matter if it is an apartment, a country house or an office. But only healthy, well-groomed plants can decorate a room, so creating suitable conditions and proper care is the main task of flower growers.
An experienced gardener’s first aid kit must contain crystalline ferrous sulfate, or ferrous sulfate. Like many other chemicals, it has properties that protect horticultural crops from numerous diseases and insect pests. In this article, we will talk about the features of using iron sulfate to treat garden plants from diseases and pests, and about other options for its use on the site.
Retaining walls – the main tool for working with complex terrain on the site. With their help, not only create terraces or play with planes and leveling, but also emphasize the beauty of the rockery landscape, the change in height, the style of the garden, its character. Retaining walls allow you to play with raised and lowered platforms and hidden areas. Modern dry or more solid walls help to turn the disadvantages of the garden into its main advantages.
There were times when the concepts of “tree-garden”, “family tree”, “collection tree”, “multi-tree” simply did not exist. And one could see such a miracle only in the household of the “Michurinites” – people who were amazed by the neighbors, looking at their gardens. There, on the same apple, pear or plum tree, not only varieties of different ripening periods ripened, but also varieties of various colors and sizes. Not many despaired of such experiments, but only those who were not afraid of numerous trials and errors.
On the balcony, in the apartment, in the summer cottage – everywhere enthusiastic people find a place for their pets. It turns out that growing flowers is a very troublesome business and obeys only endless patience, diligence and, of course, knowledge. Providing flowers with a varied and healthy diet is only one, not the biggest, but the problem on the difficult exciting path of the grower. One of the most responsible and difficult jobs in the care of indoor plants is their transplantation.
The unique combination of chrysanthemum-like flowers with fleshy original leaves draws attention to Aptenia. But its ability to tirelessly and rapidly grow, the dazzling colors of both greenery and flowers are the main advantages. And although the plant was transferred to the mesembryanthemums long ago, aptenia still remains a special star. Hardy and unpretentious, but at the same time similar to a beautifully flowering star, it is rapidly gaining popularity.
Pollack fish soup – light, low-calorie and very healthy, it is suitable for a vegetarian menu (pescetarianism) and non-strict fasting. Pollock is one of the most common and affordable fish that can be found on the shelves of almost any store. This fish is from the cod family, the meat is dense, white. Pollock does not fall apart during cooking, there are not many bones in this fish, in a word, a suitable fish for both beginner home cooks and experienced economical housewives.
The front garden is the face of the garden and its owner. Therefore, for these flower beds it is customary to choose plants that are decorative all season. And, in my opinion, perennial front gardens that bloom in spring deserve special attention. Like primroses, they bring us special joy, because after a dull winter, more than ever, we want bright colors and flowers. In this article, we suggest getting acquainted with the best decorative perennials that bloom in spring and do not require special care.
The climatic conditions of our country, unfortunately, are not suitable for growing many crops without seedlings. Healthy and strong seedlings are the key to a quality harvest, in turn, the quality of seedlings depends on several factors: Even healthy-looking seeds can be infected with pathogens that remain on the surface of the seed for a long time, and after sowing, getting into favorable conditions, they young and immature plants
Our family is very fond of tomatoes, so most of the beds in the country are given over to this crop. Every year we try to try new interesting varieties, and some of them take root and become favorites. At the same time, over the many years of gardening, we have already formed a set of favorite varieties that are required for planting in every season. We jokingly call such tomatoes “special purpose” varieties – for fresh salads, juice, salting and storage.
Coconut pie with cream – “kuchen”, or German coconut pie (Butter milch shnitten – soaked in milk). Without exaggeration, I will say that this is an incredibly tasty cake – sweet, juicy and tender. It can be stored in the refrigerator for quite a long time; cream cakes are prepared on the basis of such a biscuit in Germany.
The recipe is in the “Guests on the doorstep!” category, since usually all the ingredients are in the refrigerator, and it takes less than an hour to prepare the dough and bake.
The snow has not yet completely melted, and the restless owners of country plots are already in a hurry to evaluate the scope of work in the garden. And there really is a lot to do here. And, perhaps, the most important thing to think about in early spring is how to protect your garden from diseases and pests. Experienced gardeners know that these processes cannot be left to chance, and delay and postponing the processing time for later can significantly reduce the yield and quality of the fruit.
If you prepare soil mixtures for growing indoor plants yourself, then you should look at a relatively new, interesting and, in my opinion, necessary component – coconut substrate. Everyone, probably, has seen at least once in their life a coconut and its “shaggy” shell covered with long fibers. Many delicious products are made from coconuts (actually a drupe), but the shells and fibers used to be just waste products.
Canned fish and cheese pie is a simple lunch or dinner idea for a daily or Sunday menu. The pie is designed for a small family of 4-5 people with a moderate appetite. This pastry has everything at once – fish, potatoes, cheese, and a crispy dough crust, in general, almost like a closed calzone pizza, only tastier and simpler.

Know
Children’s emotional well-being during their early years has a powerful impact on their social relationships. Children who are emotionally healthy are better able to establish and maintain positive relationships with adults and peers (Trawick-Smith, 2014). Social-emotional development is essential to a young child’s sense of well-being. The relationships they form early on help shape who they are, who they become, and their understanding of the world. Think about some of the children in your own life and the different social-emotional skills they display.
Preschool-age children are learning to talk about their feelings and the feelings of others. Social-emotional development, however, involves more than just expressing emotions. It involves taking turns, becoming independent in following routines, interacting more with peers, engaging in meaningful relationships with others, controlling emotions, and developing a positive self-image. These skills are crucial for children’s successful participation in school and home experiences and for their overall growth.
Social-Emotional Milestones
Social and emotional development include behaviors that represent children’s emotional growth and their ability to successfully navigate their world through interactions with adults and peers. Since these skills develop together, this area of development is referred to as social-emotional development. Social-emotional milestones focus on children’s developing abilities to regulate their attention, emotions, and behavior, and to form positive relationships with adults and peers.
The chart below highlights social emotional development during the preschool years. Remember that individual differences exist when it comes to the exact age at which children may meet these milestones. As highlighted in the Cognitive, Physical, and Communication courses, milestones are not checklists with which to judge children’s development. Rather, they provide a guide for when to expect certain skills or behaviors to emerge in young children, so you are prepared to meet their changing needs. Think of these milestones as guidelines to help you understand and identify typical patterns of growth and development in preschoolers. Although the skills mentioned in the chart will develop in a predictable sequence over the preschool years, each child is unique in when they will master each skill. Your goal is to help all children grow and learn to their potential.

Remember that expectations about developmental milestones are driven by cultural values and preferences. For example, in some cultures, children are not expected to feed themselves independently until they are 3 or 4 years old. In other cultures, children are expected to start eating independently in early infancy and toddlerhood. Theorist Lev Vygotsky said that adults share their cultural values and beliefs with children through daily interactions. Ideas, beliefs, and expectations about child development are just some of the ways cultures are unique. Becoming aware of and respecting these differences can help you better understand how families’ experiences help shape the preschoolers in your classroom.
If you are concerned about a child’s development, talk with your trainer, coach, or administrator first. Share your observations of the child’s behavior and the reasons you are concerned. Your trainer, coach, or administrator may choose to observe the child and set up a meeting with the child’s family. In some situations, families might be encouraged to contact their local school district, which can arrange a free evaluation of the child’s development and can help the child get any needed help and services.
Preschoolers and Social-Emotional Development
It is important to notice that milestones are associated with different aspects of social-emotional development. Some are associated with children’s ability to engage in relationships with others and others are related to children’s abilities to regulate their emotions. Let’s take a closer look at these and how they relate to preschool development.
Relationships with others: Preschool-age children engage in pretend play with friends and use words and sentences to express their feelings and thoughts. Even though they may still need adult support to share toys and materials with friends, they improve on their own as time passes. Preschoolers also progress in their ability to understand and appropriately respond to their friends’ feelings. Children with healthy social-emotional development have a balance of all these components.
Self-awareness: Preschool-age children improve their ability to control their bodies during different activities throughout the day (e.g., sitting at circle time or playing in the gym). They learn to take turns and have conversations with peers, acknowledge and use their own names and the names of others, and self-evaluate and know when they made appropriate or inappropriate choices.
Emotional regulation: Preschool-age children display a variety of emotions in different ways. For example, they may use words to share their feelings such as “I am upset”, they may match facial expressions to happy, mad or sad, or they may laugh when excited. At the same time, they also improve their ability to manage their emotions to match the situation and environment and to control their emotions (e. g., separate easily from family members). Although preschoolers are better than toddlers at regulating emotions, they still need a great deal of help and practice with developing these appropriate behaviors.
Independence: Preschoolers with a healthy sense of independence will follow predictable daily routines and activities at school and at home. They may start identifying a favorite friend and ask that friend to play or independently play with toys and materials at home, school, or an outdoor playground. Additionally, preschoolers developing a sense of independence may complete many self-care tasks, such as getting dressed, going to the bathroom, eating snacks, feeding themselves, or getting ready for bed. Independent preschoolers will also tell caregivers about their day and learn and use new vocabulary.
Emotional Literacy
Emotional literacy is a child’s ability to label and talk about their own emotions or feelings, as well as the feelings and emotions of others. This is an essential component of social-emotional development because it helps children understand their own emotional experiences and, at the same time, helps them to acknowledge and understand the emotional experiences of others. Emotional literacy helps children solve problems and regulate their own emotions; these skills are essential for success in preschool and beyond. Children who label, talk about, and are aware of their emotions are more likely to focus on and engage in classroom routines and activities and less likely to become easily frustrated, have excessive tantrums, or act impulsively.
Many children learn to identify and discuss emotions through interactions or conversations with responsive adults in the context of positive relationships and supportive environments. In your work at a preschool program, you should embed opportunities for social skill development throughout the day. For example, you can share your emotions about events or experiences and encourage children to share their own emotions. You can also read books that discuss emotions or social interactions. In the Apply section of this lesson, you will find additional examples of resources and activities you can use to foster children’s emotional literacy.
Supporting the Social-Emotional Development of Children in Preschool
Children learn social-emotional skills in the context of their relationships by watching, imitating, and responding to the social behaviors of others. Children also learn from the way others respond to their emotions. Social-emotional skills are closely connected to a child’s family, cultural background, and early experiences. Children learn by interacting and forming relationships with members of their families, schools, and communities.
As highlighted in Lesson One (Social-Emotional Development: An Introduction), social-emotional learning begins in infancy and adults are the most influential models for young children. Caregivers who understand their infants’ emotional cues and respond immediately and sympathetically have infants who are less fussy and easier to soothe. The same happens with preschoolers; if caregivers validate children’s feelings, address their needs, and are responsive and supportive, preschoolers are better able to communicate their needs and emotions and are more likely to demonstrate healthy social-emotional development.
Healthy social-emotional development is highly associated with responsive caregiving. Responsive caregivers:
provide support and positive feedback
offer stimulating materials
play and engage with children
share events and experiences
follow children’s lead
identify children’s interests and facilitate their learning
plan meaningful opportunities throughout the day to help children practice and learn social skills.
As you read this section, think about the role you play in fostering healthy social-emotional development for the children in your care. In Lessons Three and Four, you will learn additional strategies to support the social-emotional development of all preschoolers.

Do
Preschool-age children in your care need daily opportunities to participate in activities that help them learn new social-emotional skills or practice existing skills in fun, stimulating, and supportive environments. You should purposefully use strategies throughout your day to support young children’s social-emotional development. Understanding developmental milestones is an important aspect of working with young children. Learning and understanding how preschoolers develop social-emotional skills and competence will help you foster their social-emotional learning and determine what kinds of experiences to plan in your classroom and program. You will find additional resources to foster children’s social-emotional competence in the Apply section. Consider the following in your daily work with preschoolers:
Be responsive to children’s attempts at interaction and build on what children say.
Engage in frequent, developmentally appropriate social interactions with children and adults in your classroom throughout your daily experiences and routines.
Follow each child’s lead, cues, and preferences.
Include emotion words in conversations with children.
Make books available that discuss feelings and social interactions.
Ask children meaningful questions about their actions, interests, events, and feelings.
Encourage children to use their words and talk to their peers when conflicts arise. Use developmentally appropriate language and provide conversation models and cues for children to follow if they need help solving a problem.
Ensure you are sensitive to children’s unique needs, experiences, and backgrounds.
Reach out to children’s families and be responsive to their beliefs and preferences

Social Development in 3-5 Year Olds
The preschool years are a magic time in development. Children move from being almost entirely dependent on their parents, to being somewhat independent beings in the world. In virtually every aspect of development, their knowledge base and competencies are exploding, not the least of which are their social and emotional skills.
The preschool years (ages 3 to about age 6) begin with the tail end of Erik Erikson’s second stage of psychosocial development: Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt. In this stage, children are learning to be self-sufficient in ways such as self-regulation, toileting, feeding, and dressing. Around the age of four, they enter the third stage of psychosocial development: Initiative vs. Guilt. Over the course of this period, children learn to imagine, to become more independent, to broaden their skills through play, fantasy, and exploration, and to engage, participate, and cooperate with others, including peers. According to Erikson, if these goals are not accomplished, the child will become fearful, socially excluded, limited in his ability to play, and negatively dependent on adults.

While seeming lofty, these goals are achieved by most children through natural interactions with family and other caretakers. While preschoolers are also learning how to relate to peers and interact with them, most of the social and emotional growth occurs in the relationship with caregivers. One of the challenges of this period is to learn to navigate maintaining the secure attachments accomplished during infancy and toddlerhood, while simultaneously differentiating oneself as an individual.
Individuation for children over the preschool years means developing a better understanding of who they are, as well as beginning to understand and relate to others. Creating this personal identity means exploring many fundamental aspects of themselves—gender, race, personality. At age 3, children still believe they can grow up and transform genders. By 6, they understand that gender is more or less a fixed aspect of their identity. Thus, over the preschool years, children begin to have a sense of the stable characteristics that make them the unique person that they are.
In the course of this development, preschoolers also learn more sophisticated ways to relate to others. For example, empathy develops, beginning at around age 2 but becoming more visible between ages 3 and 5. When a child experiences empathy, he realizes that he can positively affect another by taking action or offering help (e.g., getting a band aid for a crying peer). While empathy can be fostered, it seems to be an inherent part of development across cultures. On the flip side of empathy is the negative ways preschoolers learn to impact others. While toddlers may flail about in anger, preschoolers can use aggression to willfully inflict harm. A fun way to help manage your child’s aggression is The Grouches, an app put out by the American Psychological Association.
One challenge to parents of preschoolers is to support their developmental drives, while also fostering development. For example, parents can help curb preschool aggression by teaching children about emotions, helping them learn the names for the feelings, and giving them an outlet for their expression. One wonderful way to help children this age experience and express emotions is through play. Play is children’s work and dramatic play has the added benefit of allowing children to experiment with and understand social roles. It also provides opportunities for children to develop social skills, express and cope with feelings, relieve stress, exercise control over their surroundings, and experiment with decision making.
Children’s imaginations can take them wonderful places, alone or with peers. It is over the preschool years that children move from parallel play (where “friends” play side-by-side but separately) to social play (where friends interact, share ideas, and build off the play of the other). During this time, children begin to be able to play games, where they learn turn taking and sharing, as well as how to adhere to the rules. What children learn through these playful interactions is many-fold!: they are beginning to learn to interpret others’ perspectives, to regulate their responses and interactions, manage impulse control, increase both their ability to wait and to demonstrate patience, as well as their ability to share an object or event. Being able to follow rules and manage emotions is tough for young children. Supporting your child as you play games together is a great way to foster his social skills.

Features of the social and personal development of young children
Early age is a period of intensive mastering by the child of various types of activities and personality development. In child psychology and pedagogy, the following main directions in the development of a child at this age stage are distinguished:
development of objective activity;
development of communication with adults;
speech development;
game development;
involvement in various types of artistic and aesthetic activities;
development of communication with peers, physical development and personality development
This division is rather arbitrary, since development is a single process in which the selected areas intersect, interact and complement each other.
The social development of a child begins in the first weeks and months of his life. The helplessness of the newborn is an unconditional prerequisite for his appeal to the people around him. The well-being of the child in subsequent years, including school years, largely depends on how successful his early social experience turned out to be.
Socialization is understood as the process of development of biologically necessary and socially approved stereotypes of behavior, the formation of ideas about the norms and social expectations of certain behavior. At the same time, socialization is usually understood as the whole multifaceted process of assimilation by a person of the experience of social life and social relations. Early socialization is associated mainly with the first stage of this process. Socialization at an early age begins almost simultaneously with the moment when the child is physically separated from the mother. One of the main indicators of the social maturation of a small child is his consent to let his mother go away from him for a while. This means that he is already able for some, even a short time, to independently interact with other people.
An equally important indicator of the development of a child’s social needs is the emergence of interest in other children on the street. The desire to communicate with other children indicates that the baby has his own circle of interests that goes beyond family contacts. A child’s mastery of basic self-care skills also indicates his readiness to do without outside help. It is known that socially active children, striving for independence and not experiencing fear of new life experiences, master the skills of self-care faster. Consequently, this parameter, despite its outward persuasiveness, is secondary, derived from the level of development of the child’s social needs.
Important changes in a child’s personality occur during early childhood. These changes, according to VS Mukhina, are primarily associated with the development of objective activity and communication with adults. The actions of the baby with objects become more diverse and dexterous. He already knows how to do a lot himself, knows the names and purposes of household items, strives to help adults: wash dishes, wipe the table, vacuum the floor, water the flowers. He increasingly consciously wants to act like an adult, he begins to be attracted not only by the process of performing an action, but also by its result. The child tries to get the same result as the adult. Thus, the child’s attitude to his activity gradually changes: the result becomes its regulator. In independent studies, games, the baby begins to be guided by the plan, the desire to achieve success in activities.
Mastery of objective activity stimulates the development of such personal qualities of children as initiative, independence, purposefulness. The child becomes more and more persistent in achieving the goal.
Relationship with an adult is moving to a new level. Now an adult is a carrier of knowledge and patterns of human actions with objects, with his help the baby learns the object environment. It must be borne in mind that a child’s full mastery of objective activity occurs only in the process of communicating with adults.
Communication between a child and adults at an early age has specific features. A child who has full communication with adults is characterized by the following features:
the child is proactive in relation to an adult – seeks to draw his attention to his actions, asks for help and evaluation of his actions;
insistently requires adult participation in their affairs;
sensitive to the attitude of an adult, to his assessment, knows how to restructure his behavior depending on the behavior of an adult, subtly distinguishes between praise and censure;
willingly imitates an adult, fulfills his requests and instructions; timely masters active speech, uses it for communication purposes.
Mastery of speech is the most important event at this age. This happens in communication with an adult by naming objects and indicating actions. Later, speech acquires the function of the main mental instrument. It becomes a means of thinking, imagining, mastering one’s own behavior, and so on.
At an early age, self-care skills are formed: the baby dresses himself, uses a spoon and fork, drinks from a cup, goes to the potty, washes his hands, etc.
Interest in objects and actions with them leads to the emergence of a process game: the process itself is important for the baby, for example, feeding a doll or riding a bear on a typewriter By the end of this period, elements of creativity appear in the child’s play, an imaginary situation comes to the fore in relation to the visual and an independent plot game is formed, which is important in development and becomes the leading activity of a preschool child.
There is a noticeable change in communication: actions towards a peer as an inanimate object are on the wane, there is a desire to interest him in himself, sensitivity to the attitude of a peer. More and more kids are enjoying playing together. Their unpretentious and short-term actions are based on imitation of each other, but they speak of nascent communication. However, no matter how attractive the game with a peer is, an adult or a toy that appears in the field of view distracts the children from each other.
In the third year of life, communication with peers begins to take an increasing place. This is due to the fact that by the age of three, a special, specific content of children’s communication with each other arises. A peer for a child acts as a kind of mirror in which the child sees a reflection of his being. Therefore, communication is a powerful means of self-knowledge, the formation of an adequate self-image.
Communication with peers is one of the most important sources for the development of a child’s cognitive activity. The presence of a peer nearby activates even a baby. Contacts between children give them additional impressions, positive experiences, open up the opportunity to demonstrate their skills, contribute to the disclosure of creativity and originality. In the course of communication with each other, the kids develop and improve joint practical and play actions, and ideas about another person are formed.
So, in the third year of life, a child experiences a special need for communication with a peer, which is satisfied in an emotionally colored game. But even towards the end of an early age, the communication of children with each other is still inferior in attractiveness to communication with adults and objective activity.
Primary experience associated with the period of early childhood, with the formation of basic mental functions and elementary forms of social behavior, acts as one of the main sources of socialization of the individual.
For a child, the family is not only a source and condition for the development of his psyche, expanding his knowledge and ideas about the world around him, but also the first model of social relations accepted in this particular society that he encounters. It is in the family that the child gets acquainted with the meaning and essence of the social roles of mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, brother, sister, son, daughter. As he gets older, he also realizes that layer of family ties, the center of which is not him, but other family members: husband, wife, uncle, aunt, and other relatives.
Even if the structure of the family in which the child lives is quite complex and hierarchical, it cannot provide the child with the opportunity to fully acquire the experience of social behavior that is necessary for entering into a different, wider circle of social relations that goes beyond family ties . The older the child becomes, the greater the role begins to play such an aspect of his social development as mastering the norms and rules of social relationships.
Thus, V.S. Mukhina believes that “the social development of the child goes in two directions: through the assimilation of the rules of the relationship of people with each other and through the interaction of the child with the object in the world of permanent things” But it is not enough just to provide the child with knowledge about how society works, how it is customary to behave in German It is necessary to create conditions for him to acquire personal social experience, since socialization involves the active participation of the person himself in mastering the culture of human relations, mastering social norms and roles, and developing psychological mechanisms of social behavior.
