Hi,
If you celebrate Christmas and want to put a smile on a loved one's face or hear the laughter ring out from the kiddies on Christmas day. I have found one that I think it is a good gift for any kids. Santamail offers a custom printed letter that are mailed directly from North Pole, Alaska on a beautifully printed Santa Claus letterhead and even signed by Santa himself (that's the fun part to see your kid actually believes that!). Some features of the customized letters include the following:

- Addressed personally to your child
- Return address and postmark from North Pole, Alaska
- Special seasonal stamp
- Personalized with child's name, home town, state and a friend's name
- Signed by Santa
- Up to 6 unique letters to choose from

The Christmas season will be here before you know it! You can take a look at some of the sample personalized letters from the North Pole here! See ya!

Q1: My 2 year old boy is extremely verbal and very active and energetic. Lately, it seems that his developmental independence is particularly aggressive and he shows frustration very easily. My instinct tells me that my son needs much more stimulation and structured activity. How do I help him?

Q2: My daughter was tested using the Terra Nova testing last year during first grade. In reading she scored in the 97th percentile, while in language and math in the 99th. She is in the CAP program at school, yet rarely had homework and seemed to grasp everything very easily. Are we doing enough for her to have her simply continue in the CAP program, or should she be in another sort of program or school?

Q3: My daughter was tested for her inborn intelligence and it turns out that it is above average by 51 points. Teacher claimed that she could be gifted due to her observation in class through a series of games and activities for brain training. Hence when an IQ test was administered on her, she has IQ of 100 points, which is average. Will an IQ test for 4 years and 3 months old child be accurate at this point?

* Review: 4 Stars

Nourished exclusively on music (although, like all of us, it appreciates a little positive attention), the palm-sized iDog moves and grooves to the rhythm of your musical beat.

Increasing Child's I.Q. May Be At Your Fingertips

Eckerman reported that studies show physical and intellectual gains in babies who get lots of skin-to-skin contact. Breast feeding or not, skin-to-skin contact between mother and child can bring lifelong benefits.

High IQ in childhood tied to longer life
Reuter UK Nov 11, 2005

Smarter children may enjoy longer lives, the results of a new study suggest. The study, which followed elderly adults deemed gifted by childhood IQ tests, found that the higher their early IQs were, the longer they lived -- up to a point, at least. The survival advantage began to plateau after a childhood IQ of 163, an intelligence level few people reach.

Conference emphasizes infants, brain power

Always searching for a way to help, Bednarz said she discovered a "simple but profound" method in a group of exercises called Brain Gym. The exercises stimulate the three different parts of the brain - the limbic system, brain stem and especially the cerebral cortex, or the "thinking brain." With the cerebral cortex working smoothly, a person is better able to control stress and emotional outbursts.
