Should My Kids Get the H1N1 Vaccine?
As a mother I want to do the best job I can in protecting my kids from any harm.
Seeing as the vaccination starts in early November I feel a deadline coming
up and need to inform my self on the subject. This is difficult because I am
not a physician. So do we weigh the pros and cons and then go with the gut
feeling?
I totally agree with this statement by Dr. Carol J. Baker, a professor of pediatrics
at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston: "There's a lot of
bad information
out there, and it makes people worry".

Interact to integrate
When you realize that the cashier of Migros is your best friend it`s time to
go online.
As a mother and newbie in Zürich, I didn't have time to really go out there
and make friends. So I started to go virtual and connect myself to
forums.

White socks in town, or:
Canton of Aargau
Foreigners coming to Switzerland will sooner or later discover that – like
in any other country – people from certain areas have a bit of a bad reputation
travelling ahead of them.
In Zurich, for example, customarily much abuse is given to the Aargauers (the
people from the Canton of Aargau). However, while language is often a reason
to mock others, this is not the case with the Aargauers.

Foreign Language Acquisition
in Early Childhood
As
we speak one language the child’s brain starts to select
these sounds and neglect others and this is how, in time, the knowledge
of one language comes. When we are babies we all have potential
of learning any language in the world.

Travel to LOFOTEN
Like pearls on a necklace lie the tiny islands of Lofoten in the Atlantic. The
Norwegian group of islands is 190 km long and provide numerous experiences. In
summer you will see the sun at midnight, that throws a unique light on the beaches
and mountains. In winter though the polar light will thrill you.
