Fan Use Linked to Lower Risk of Sudden Baby Death
, 10 21st, 2008I recently viewed a story on FOX News that discussed the effect the use of a fan has on Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and found it very interesting. In October, 2008, the Associated Press reported:
using a fan to circulate air seemed to
lower the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
SIDS is defined as the sudden death of an otherwise healthy infant that can’t be attributed to any other cause. It is possible these babies may have brain abnormalities that prevent them from gasping and waking up when they don’t get enough oxygen.Of course, experts say placing babies on their backs to sleep is still the best way to prevent SIDS. They also recommend a firm mattress, removing all toys and pillows from cribs, and keeping infants from getting too warm.
This new study offers parents another way to make sure
babies get enough air while they sleep.
During the study, researchers took into account other risk factors and found that fan use was associated with a 72% lower risk of SIDS. Using a fan reduced risk most for babies in poor sleeping environments.
Money Saving Strategies
, 09 30th, 2008Let’s face it. It doesn’t matter which politician is pointing his finger or at whom he is pointing it. Nor does it matter what creative lingo the financial analysts use. At the end of the day, our country is still facing a serious financial crisis. What does this mean to the ordinary United States citizen? It means that we have to be economic magicians and make our dollars stretch as far as possible.
One of the obvious money saving strategies is to cut household costs wherever possible. You’ve probably already thought of the obvious ones like turning down the thermostat and the hot water heater, not to mention changing out the light bulbs for more energy efficient, environmentally friendly ones. But have you considered replacing your existing light fixture with a ceiling fan and light kit?
Most people think that ceiling fans are only used during the hot summer months, when, in fact, they have been proven to be very effective at cutting heating costs in the winter. How does this work? Well, as we all know, heat rises and that is where it usually stays - lost at the ceiling. However, a ceiling fan that is properly set to blow that warm, rising air back down to the ground can help you “recycle” that warm air allowing you to cut your heating costs.
It would be nice, of course, if you could afford to install a ceiling fan in every room; however, most people start with the bedrooms since they are usually the hardest rooms to heat. Just be sure to shop the Internet before purchasing a plain, ordinary fan because there is a wide variety of afforable children’s ceiling fans as well as other decorative ceiling fans available to match most of the popular bedding designs sold today.
Not just a fan - its a focal point!!
, 08 20th, 2008As most parents know, mobiles are great. That is, until Baby becomes mobile; then it is considered a safety hazard and has to be removed. You are then left with a crying baby and no focal point to lull your little angel to sleep. As a Mother of two myself, I went through the same thing. That is, until we installed this wonderfully colorful Winnie the Pooh ceiling fan. At bedtime, I simply turn the lights down low (allowing just enough light so my little one can see the design) and turn the fan on it’s lowest setting. It works like a charm!! Best of all, it’s not only a wonderfully creative focal point for our child, it also helps us lower our heating and cooling costs too!!
Unique Princess Fan Offers Crowning Touch
, 08 16th, 2008This fan was such a GREAT find; I just can’t say enough about it and the people at O-YouKid.com.
I have to admit, I did look at the Disney Princess Ceiling Fan manufactured by Disney but opted to buy this one instead for several reasons. First of all, although the “Disney” fan is cute, it is rather expensive and doesn’t offer the versatility that this fan does. This fan design not only matches the Disney Princess wallpaper border in my daughter’s room perfectly, it also offers me versatility at an affordable price. When my daughter outgrows her princess theme bedroom, I can either turn the blades over to reveal a plain white blade or I can return the blades to O-YouKid.com, choose a new design and have them redesigned. Wow - You sure can’t beat that!
Thanks O-YouKid.com; my daughter thinks that I am the BEST Mom in the World!!
