Philosophizing -- considering life questions -- stimulates thinking: processing information, reasoning, thinking creatively, evaluating alternatives. Many children are natural philosophers. They observe the world around them from a young age, have a keen sense of right and wrong, and ask endless questions. Stories -- fables, fairy tales, parables -- are a classic device for teaching lessons about life, morality, chance, consequences, and other cultures to audiences both young and old. Philosophy Sucks...Kids Right In is a guide that parents and educators can use to structure and guide this process. Contributors Nel de Theije-Avontuur and Leo Kaniok have collected 40 short stories that encourage children to ponder the themes of happiness, love, friendship, peace, freedom, respect, and equality -- and more. An introductory chart clearly lays out the age groupings the stories are appropriate for, a primary theme, possible secondary themes, and the teaching purpose of the story. Many stories come with discussion papers that suggest areas of exploration with children of different age groups (4-6, 6-8, 8-10, and 10-12) and grades. The open-ended questions encourage self-reflection and stimulate children to experience the stories more intensely and seek their own answers to the big questions of life.Binding Type: Paperback

Very good but not amazing
Color: Bright Gold, Size: Queen (90" X 90")
Not the most amazing blanket possible but pretty close.
The only negative I can think of is that it's a bit thinner than I expected, besides that it is quite comfortable, smooth, soft and visually appealing.

SO SOFT & cozy without being super heavy
Color: Grey, Size: California King (102" X 96")
I’m picky about blankets because some fleece ones either feel cheap or make you way too hot, but this one is actually really nice.
It’s really soft, washes well, and has that cozy feel without feeling overly thick or heavy. I got the California King size and it’s actually big enough to fully cover the bed without constantly fighting for blanket.

My perfect summer blanket
Color: Grey, Size: King (108" x 90")
I had 0 expectations for this blanket and I was pleasantly surprised.
This blanket is very lightweight, much like the novelty throw blankets you find in the kids section. It's very soft, compared to chinchilla fur. Incredibly soft and it didn't make me hot. Nor did it keep me cool. For me, it's the perfect blanket for summer weather. So far, the quality seems really nice and it fits my needs as a king size.

Soft, lightweight, warm and long blanket
Color: 04 - Cream, Size: Throw XL (50" X 70")
Very nice blanket. It's soft and long enough to cover you when laying on the sofa and warm. It also washes and dries well on warm water normal dry. I highly recommend this blanket

Great Budget Earbuds That Have Held Up Well
Style: Standard, Color: Black
I originally bought these earbuds because they were on sale and listed as an Amazon’s Choice product, and they’ve turned out to be a really good value. I’ve had them for about a year now, and they’ve held up without any issues.
They connect to Bluetooth quickly and easily, the LED battery display on the front of the charging case is a nice feature, and the sound quality is surprisingly good for an inexpensive set of earbuds. Battery life has also been solid for everyday use.
The microphone works fine for phone calls in quieter environments, although it doesn’t do much to block out wind noise if you’re outside. Still, for the price, these are impressive headphones and a great budget-friendly option. Overall, I’m very happy with them.
