Scratch is a visual block based editor that allows kids of all ages to get a better grasp on coding concepts.

Entry level coding is taught through block coding and kids of all ages can learn the fundamental and ever growing skill of coding through hands on play as well as classroom unplugged lessons.

Every student learns differently. Some absorb by listening, some absorb by reading, and almost all benefit from hands on! At CodeCubbies, we teach using all these methods.

We believe that teaching kids to code helps to set them up for academic success regardless of what they want to be when they grow up.

Are you getting enough sleep? It's a question you must’ve often heard for a good reason. Sleep is crucial for your overall health and well-being. However, there's a deeper connection between your sleep and your eye health. It's an interesting topic that has caught the attention of researchers and eye care professionals alike.

Whether you struggle with getting enough shut-eye or simply want to know how to rest your eyes, this post is here to help you. It explores the link between your quality of sleep and your eye health and gives you some practical tips on how to get a good night’s sleep. So let’s dive in!

What is the Connection Between Lack of Sleep and Eye Health?

Did you know that just like your brains and bodies, your eyes also heal themselves while you sleep? Thus, not getting enough shut-eye can cause issues like dryness, itchiness, bloodshot eyes, and other problems.

As a matter of fact, over time, sleep deprivation could even lead to more severe eye diseases like glaucoma. So, ensure you catch those Z's and give your eyes the rest they need! More details are coming up in the next section!

How is Sleep Helpful for Improving Eye Health?

Getting enough sleep can do wonders for your eye health. There are 4 key ways in which sleep can improve your eyesight. Let's take a closer look at each of them.

• Boosts the Eye Immunity
  Your immune system fights against harmful bacteria and viruses that can cause infections. The eyes are no exception to this. Lack of sleep can weaken your immune system, making you more susceptible to eye infections such as conjunctivitis or pink eye. Getting enough sleep helps to boost the immune system, thereby protecting the eyes from infections.

• Reduces the Risks of Dry Eye
  A dry eye is a common problem when your eyes don't make enough tears. It causes a lot of uncomfortable symptoms like irritation and vision issues. Not getting enough sleep can make it worse! That's because when you are sleep-deprived, your tear production slows down. But if you catch enough zzz's, your eyes produce enough tears and stay hydrated.

• Helps in Avoiding Glaucoma
  Glaucoma is a serious eye condition that damages the optic nerve, leading to blindness. But do you know sleep apnea and eye health are also interconnected in this context? Dry eyes and glaucoma can be the result of reduced oxygen and blood flow to the optic nerve due to sleep disorders such as sleep apnea. Thus, getting a sound sleep naturally prevents the chances of glaucoma in future.

• Reduces the Chances of Accidents Due to Sleep Deprivation
  Sleep deprivation can lead to fatigue, drowsiness, and impaired vision, increasing the risks of accidents and injuries. This is especially true for those who drive or operate heavy machinery. Getting enough sleep helps to reduce the chances of accidents due to sleep deprivation, as it improves alertness and concentration.

How to Relax Your Eyes & Get a Good Sleep at Night?

If you are struggling to get a good night's sleep, there are a few things you can try:

• Firstly, make sure your sleeping environment is cool enough to help you sleep more comfortably.
• Next, try to stick to a regular sleep schedule, even on weekends. This will help your body establish a routine and regulate your energy levels.
• Avoid eating within three hours of bedtime. Digestion can require a lot of energy, making it harder to drift off and stay asleep.
• Make sure your bedroom is as dark as possible. Even the tiniest bit of light can disturb your sleep.
• About an hour before bed, start dimming the lights in your home. This will signal your body and mind that it's time to relax and wind down.
• If you live in a noisy area, try sleeping with a fan or some white noise to help you fall asleep without distractions.
• Avoid using your smartphone, laptop, TV, or tablet at least two hours before bed to ensure you get enough melatonin, a chemical that helps you sleep.
• Regular exercise can also help you sleep better. But make sure to work out earlier in the day and not within three hours of bedtime.
• If nothing works, it may be worth consulting with your doctor. They can help you determine if you have a condition like sleep apnea that could impact your rest.

You now know the vital link between the quality of your sleep and the health of your eyes. Poor sleep can lead to a number of vision problems. But don't worry! From establishing a bedtime routine to creating a sleep-conducive environment, there are many strategies, as mentioned here, that you can use to get a good night's rest.

So take care of your eyes, prioritize your sleep, and don’t forget your annual eye exam to catch any eye condition early on – your body will thank you!

Consider Olympic-related events, athletes who are positive role models, problems that arise in sports, traditional sports, and seasonal sports, from surfing to quidditch to the Special Olympics, there is so much to consider, even if you don’t have experience playing a sport.

There’s a saying that “Life is short so smile while you have teeth” If you keep smiling, you’ll be happy, confident, and healthy. But some people are devoid of this simple pleasure of life due to diastema and other dental disorders. Are you one of them? If yes, keep reading!

This article sheds some light on the positive role of a perfect smile in your life. But before that, there’s helpful information on overcoming roadblocks like diastema teeth, also known as gapped teeth.

Effect of Imperfect Teeth on Your Perfect Smile

Diastema is a dental disorder that creates a gap between your teeth. This gap makes you cautious, especially if it’s between the front teeth. Apart from being a hurdle between you and your perfect smile, diastema teeth affect your professional life in the following ways:-

• Adverse Effect on Your Reputation

If you have gapped teeth, you smile less as you are cautious. You might end up with the reputation of being arrogant because of that.

• Difficulty in Cracking Job Interview or an Important Deal

Anybody would like to hire someone with a pleasant personality. Business deals also require a cordial exchange of smiles. You can ruin your chances there because of your teeth. Even if you smile, people might assume you are a careless person who can’t take care of his/her own teeth.

Options of Diastema Treatment

You don’t need to live with it forever. Some of the most prominent treatment options for diastema teeth are as follows:-

• Braces

Braces put pressure on gapped teeth to bring them closer. Traditional braces, known as metal braces, are among the most common diastema treatments. However, other types of braces are also available in the market. Your orthodontist can suggest the correct one for you.

• Invisalign

Invisalign is the set of aligner trays that are made of clear plastic. This diastema treatment is popular amongst teenagers as it is not visible to others, unlike the visually striking metal braces. And you can remove aligners to eat, drink, or brush which makes them super comfortable to wear and easy to maintain.

• Dental Implants

Often missing teeth are the cause of diastema teeth. In such a case, a dental implant or a dental bridge is attached to your teeth. It corrects the alignment of your teeth by filling the gap between 2 teeth. A dental implant is secured with a metal screw in your jawbone.

• Orthodontic Surgery

Your orthodontist may suggest an orthodontic surgery before starting your treatment if excess tissue is formed in your mouth. It happens when your gapped teeth are because of a cyst or an abnormal frenum. During your orthodontic surgery, the excess tissue is removed to bring back the balance.

Positive Effects of a Perfect Smile

Smiling is great for improving your personal, professional, and social life. Here are a few reasons not to miss out on the magic of your smile!

• Makes You Attractive: You are more attractive with a smile. You seem happy and friendly, so people are drawn to you. They also see ou as a trustworthy person.
• Helps You Keep Calm: A smile gives you confidence and courage to cope with difficult situations in life. It keeps you positive and hopeful.
• Good for Overall Health: smile helps manage lifestyle diseases like blood pressure and low blood sugar. It lowers your stress levels and improves your immunity. There are numerous other health benefits of smiling.

• Improves Confidence level: Your confidence level gets an immense boost if you keep a white and bright smile on your face. On the contrary, you will always be self-cautious with imperfect teeth.

Final Thoughts!

There are numerous benefits of keeping a smile on your face. At the same time, there are many disadvantages of not smiling due to being self-cautious. Therefore you should get the diastema treatment at the earliest if gapped teeth are stopping you from showing your true self to people. Other orthodontic issues are also manageable via modern orthodontic treatments.

With award winning programs that foster creativity, teamwork, positive self-esteem, and social emotional skills development, Renaissance Adventures programs are led by an outstanding team of Quest Leaders and Game Masters. Programs are designed for groups of up to 6 kids of like ages, and each child/teen chooses a character to play as they adventure together through a mythical land full of mystery and intrigue.

Sessions will be moderated by our mentors and teachers.

Due to school starting virtually in the fall, we wanted to create a virtual space to allow children to enjoy listening to stories together and to develop a passion for reading.

Our tutoring is something special. Tutors often focus only on academics. Our state of Michigan certified teachers can teach your child skills and strategies to help them manage their learning or thinking differences and to improve schoolwork. This tutoring “upgrade” is sometimes called educational therapy.

We understand the compassion and connection needed to work with students who are struggling with academics. The 1:1 relationship we have with students allows us to strengthen individuals’ weaknesses and build confidence, curiosity, and critical thinking skills. We specialize in reluctant readers, students with diverse needs, and learners who are learning English. We also provide advocacy services for families of students with IEPs.

With over 14,000 shoes in our collection, we have a lot of shoes (and other shoe-related items) to show you, one shoe at a time.

Brooklyn Robot Foundry offers a variety of super fun, online, robot-building classes to 2-13 years old!  All classes maintain a very low student-to-teacher ratio, allowing for plenty of individualized instruction and socializing.  Materials for all classes will be shipped to students before the session begins.

• Robot Builders (6-8 & 9-12 year olds): This is the online version of the Robot Foundry’s popular after school classes, featuring a brand new robot project each week. The fall will be split into two 6-week terms, to accommodate students’ changing school schedules.  Children may sign up for either term, or ideally both, as each term will feature different projects. Weekdays at 3pm & 5pm ET.
• Robot Coders (9-13 year olds):  These classes combine the hands-on learning experience of robot-building with basic programming.  Students will use the Hummingbird app to code and bring their robot creations to life each week.   Due to the complexity of these projects, classes run 1.5 - 2 hours. 
• Robot Inventors (8-12 year olds): These classes are intended for children who enjoy the challenge of designing their own creations and trying to make them actually work!  Students will be introduced to various building techniques and parts, and given starter ideas.  They will then work on their own project each week in this trial and error-based class.
• Mini Makers (2-5yr olds + grown-up): Mini Makers classes introduce engineering fundamentals in a super engaging, age-appropriate manner. Children will get to build a robot each week (with help from their grown-ups), which they can continue to play with long after class is over.  There are four completely different 4-week sessions, which can be taken in any combination and order for an extended experience that works with children’s shifting schedules.
• STEAM RoboLab: Science (6-12 year olds): Students will learn more about the common core science curriculum for select grades with the help of what else, but robots!  This class will serve as a supplement to classroom science, allowing for the inquiry-based, hands-on lab experience that most school can not accomplish through remote or hybrid learning.  Students will be encouraged to experiment with ongoing projects and other challenges between the 12 weekly classes.
• STEAM RoboLab: Art (6-12 year olds):  Each week in this 12-week class, students will study a different artist or genre, and then work on their own project in which they can explore and experiment within each style themselves.  This is an immersive, hands-on, art class for students of all abilities.
• One Time Classes (6-10 years old):  These single, stand-alone classes can serve as a great introduction for students new to the Robot Foundry, as a supplement to existing students who just want to build more projects, or as a mini-session of your own scheduling when combined together.  The components for each robot you choose will be sent to your home, so your child will be all set to build with us on the day of the class.

Brooklyn Robot Foundry offers Robot Building and Robot Coding classes for children 2-13 years old! Choose from a variety of options based on child's age and session length, in which kids build a new robot every class!
