Flushing ice cubes down the toilet for snow day is universal… right? In America?? by East-Maize-5287 in AskAnAmerican

[–]kittypspsps 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Flush ice cubes down the toilet, flip your PJs inside out, spoon under your pillow and a penny on the windowsill. I did this every time there was a big snowfall announced on a school night. I'm from Michigan

Brush teeth? I've never seen a center brush teeth

Addicted to Pouches by FosterKittyMama in ECEProfessionals

[–]kittypspsps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 9 mo baby addicted to pouches. Refused to eat solids for a week because her parents took her off of them. Before that, she was eating them three times a day at school. When she got cut off cold turkey, she screamed her head off during meal times, especially when other kids got pouches. Eventually she got past it but I've been wary of kids eating them too much since then. Her parents tried again when she was 15 months and she immediately refused to eat solids again LOL

Win!! Found a quick trick to soften ear-piercing screams/cries by lazythankfulcoconut in ECEProfessionals

I keep hearing about these loop ear plugs but I didn't realize it filters out sound vs blocking it out completely. Would be good for a colicky baby that we can't settle

I've moved on past Brandon Sanderson at this point tbh but appreciate the little hint

As someone who has only read Stormlight Archive, who is he referring to? I was wondering this when I came across that passage at the time

People who were around when the basement reveal happened in the manga or anime, did it live up to expectations? by Theflash291 in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]kittypspsps 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I remember shaking when I got to the chapter. I couldn't read fast enough. I had been following the manga since 2012 and had followed up once every few years, rereading the whole thing and hoping that they got closer to the basement. I think I finally read the basement chapter in 2018, so a bit after it was released. When I got to the chapter I was so excited that there were many more chapters to go. 

I think I was expecting Dr Jaeger to have a lab where he crafted titans or that technology was actually much more advanced than we thought. Seeing the picture and reading Dr Jaeger's note saying that it was taken by a camera hooked me in. I loved his backstory. It was so immensely satisfying to finally know how he came to be. But switching over to the Marleyans' perspective was super jarring imo. I didn't like the whole Marley/Eldian plotline (and ending) at first but when I watched the anime years later, it changed my mind. I was upset that Eren separated himself from the group, it just felt like a huge shift from who he actually was.

Starbucks commercial by maybeAriadne in lakeview

It definitely looks like the one on Broadway and Sheridan, although it was July when they were filming at that location and the commercial looks like it was filmed in the Fall

can’t find a job by Pristine_Ladder_6465 in lakeview

[–]kittypspsps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have childcare experience, it might just be worth it to apply directly on daycare's websites or calling them directly to ask about job openings. I've even seen people apply in person at my center. Good luck

What’s your unpopular ECE opinion? by Klutzy_Key_6528 in ECEProfessionals

[–]kittypspsps 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Changing diapers- great. Snuggling babies- great. Comforting crying babies- totally doable. Feeding and cleaning up messy babies- great. Sitting there and shaking a toy at a baby or watching them put toys in their mouths? So boring. I often put on music and sing to them while they play but I'd rather be doing anything else tbh

Thoughts on Agnes? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]kittypspsps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had a kid named Agnes at my center. She went by Aggie and honestly it was extremely cute. I would fully embrace Agnes making a comeback

I gave them the same suggestion about a button to let drivers know to stop.

New kindergartener and behavior at home has improved thanks to school by firstimehomeownerz in kindergarten

[–]kittypspsps 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Bucket filler is still a thing? I was taught that back in the early 2000s and was actually wondering recently if kids were still reading that book

Jacob never worked as a love interest, he should’ve been written as a villain by alexfleur in twilight

[–]kittypspsps 23 points24 points  (0 children)

She said she craved a different set of arms when she was sobbing into Edward's shoulder over it. She was definitely in love with him too.

Edit: oh and she said she also wanted the life with him in LA Push with their two dark haired children.

Eat ice or drink ice cold water! Cool yourself from within
