My 6 year old daughter wants an Mp3 player for X-mas. Can anyone recommend a good one?

Lisa

She wants it for Christmas and I just don't know which one to get. I don't want to get something to expensive because she is only six. Headphones make a big deal too, because she doesn't work very well with the one's that fit inside your ears.

Answer
You certainly don't want to get her a fancy, expensive player as she's only 6, but there are a couple of kid-friendly mp3 players that I have heard good things about, and they're quite affordable. The SanDisk Sansa Shaker is one that gets very good reviews. Amazon has it in pink and blue with a 1gb memory card for $29.99. It has a built in speaker as well as two headphone connections, and uses a replaceable AAA battery. The Disney Mix Sticks also get good reviews as kids players. Toys r Us has a couple of different models for about $40 on their site. Most players seem to come with really uncomfortable earbuds, but you can buy a really cheap pair of headphones in whatever style you prefer to go with any of these players. Hope that helps.

What should I get my 6 year old sister?

Talore Rob

I am going Christmas shopping later, and I was wondering if you guys have any ideas. She likes trains, drawing, coloring, and most things 6 year old girls like. Do you also have ideas for a 13 year old girl? She likes art stuff and supernatural. My price range is 5-15 dollars for each of them. Thanks you guys.

Answer
For the six year old, go with a coloring book. You cant really go wrong if she likes to color. For a 13 year old, my headphones, is she has something for them to be used with. Otherwise, everybody likes candy :)

Any tips for traveling with a 2 year old?

best headphones for 6 year old image

Amy Y

We are about to take our first long trip with our soon to be 2 year old. She doesn't do well with even short trips in the car. It is a 9 hour drive, but we have decided to stop overnight half way, so it doesn't overwhelm her. Traveling at night is not an option either. Any ideas on stuff to keep her busy & in a good mood? We did buy a portable DVD player, but I'm sure that will only keep her busy for about an hr or so. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, as I am extremely nervous.

Answer
1.Patience
2.Magnadoodle
3. Wireless childrens headphones if you can afford it to prevent safe driving for you and entertainment and something "new" for the little one.
4. A very good spill proof cup, preferably the one with the snack bowl attached
5. Practice and skill in selective hearing.
6. Pull ups- accidents happen.

Sometimes there will be screaming. You will be on the road. It might come at the time when you are on the Highway. Pay no attention to it, block it out, focus on the road. Screaming does not exist until you are off.

You may get luckily and she will most likely sleep most of the way. Most kids do. Even on the train my son slept most of the time.

What are a few ways to train a Yorkie to stop chewing up things?

Shantelle

My 1 1/2 year old Yorkshire Terrier (which is also mixed with a little bit of Poodle), chews up a lot of things (recently- my brand new headphones). We have tried putting her in the cage for about 30 min. - 1 hour, firmly (and quite loudly) telling her to not chew things, and much more. Nothing seems to work! She just does it again. We try our best to keep things away from her, but she jumps and worms her way into places. Its getting pretty bad and I really don't want to sell her. We have even had to resort to placing gates to block off certain rooms (which looks very tacky). She also has at least 2 accidents in the house per day. Is this normal? What can I do? By the way, we have 6 members of the household, 3 adults, one teen, a 4 year old, and a baby. She is the only dog in the house, we got her in December of 2011.
We do keep things away and up as much as possible. She even chews on blankets on the beds and things like that.
We have many chew toys out and available, she chews on a bone often. We have a fairly big house and normally there are only 3 household members (which doesn't make a difference- she still acts the same.) We have had a dog before, he was well trained.

Answer
First off, if she is still having accidents in the house, she is not properly house trained, or you don't have her on a schedule and she is forced to eliminate in the house.

Second, there is nothing "tacky" about gates in a household with dogs. If you have a problem with gates perhaps the dog lifestyle is not for you.

Third, what are you giving her to chew on that is more appropriate? Does she have an antler, or a nylabone, or a bully stick, or anything?

Sounds to me like she is not getting enough exercise, is not fully trained, and is living in a crowded house with no rules, no structures, and no schedule. Just the right environment for behavior issues.

By the way, putting her in the crate does nothing. Nothing. It was worthy of repeating.

Answer
I started going to the gym when I was carrying extra weight. In the beginning I hated it but not long after I began to enjoy it. Firstly, I found that with my headphones on (with the right music of course) and all other noise blocked out, my mind would begin to drift. I found I was able to work through day to day problems because I had no interruptions and what i was doing (treadmill, stepper) didn't require ant real concentration once I had applied the settings. I enjoyed it because it was almost like meditation, I could find the answers to my problems because I actually had the time to think. Suffice to say I've lost a lot of weight and feel a much calmer person now. Good luck.

How much can I sell my iPod touch 4g for on eBay?

Tyler...

It's about a year old, screen isn't scratched, but the back is fairly scratched

It also comes with a case, over ear headphones, jvc gummy earbuds, USB, wall charger, a bomb speaker, I think I still have the box, and also comes with a stylus

What's it worth? It's updated to 6.1

Also it's the 8GB model.

I'm thinking about saving for the new iPod touch, if my parents will let me -_-

Thanks!

Answer
I been trying to sell mines as well, it's same as yours, mines it's almost brand new, I'm probably going for 120-140 somewhere, on Craigslist. If you get some higher offer go for it!
