What is Outer Space

Space is the area beyond the upper limits of Earth's atmosphere. It is where all of the asteroids, comets, planets, stars, solar systems and galaxies in our universe are found. Space is a vacuum, meaning it contains almost nothing, but it is not completely empty.

Interesting Facts about Space

1. Space does not begin at a specific altitude above the Earth, but the Kármán line at 100 km is a commonly used definition.

2. The temperature in the void of space is about −270.45 °C.

3. Space is a hard vacuum, meaning it is a void containing very little matter.

4. There is no sound in space because molecules are too far apart to transmit sound.

5. The space between galaxies is not completely empty but has an average of one atom per cubic meter.

6. There are an estimated 100-400 billion stars in our galaxy, the Milky Way.

7. The universe is observed to be 13.8 billion years old and has been expanding since its formation in the Big Bang.

8. In the observable universe there are an estimated 2 trillion (2,000,000,000,000) galaxies.

9. The International Space Station is the largest ever crewed object in space.

10. Spacecraft have visited all the known planets in our solar system.

During mating season, female harp seals form large colonies on floating ice and give birth to young. Older seals return annually to pack ice to molt. They lose their pelts and top layers of skin and grow a new fur coat every year.

Harp seals are sometimes called saddleback seals because of the dark, saddlelike marking on the back and sides of their light yellow or gray bodies of the adults.

Baby seals are born on pack ice floating in the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans. Harp seal mothers are able to identify their babies by their smell. The pups don't have any blubber at birth, but quickly gain weight nursing on high-fat mother's milk. When the pups reach about 80 pounds (36 kilograms), their mothers stop nursing them. The pups go without food for about six weeks and can lose about half their body weight until they dive in and begin to hunt for themselves. The young seals are famous for their snowy white coats.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Harp seals spend most of their time diving and swimming in the icy waters of the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans. These sleek swimmers often hunt for fish and crustaceans at 300 feet (90 meters) and may dive to nearly 1,000 feet (300 meters).

Seals and sea lions are semiaquatic mammals that are in a group called pinnipeds, meaning "fin-footed." Walruses are also members of this group. While related, all three are in different taxonomic families.

"True" seals, also called earless seals, are members of the Phocidae family, according to the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS). Sea lions are members of the Otariidae family (eared seals), along with several species of fur seals. Walruses are in the Odobenidae family.

As their names imply, one difference between the two types of seals is their ears. Eared seals have external ear flaps, while true seals do not. Another difference is that the rear flippers of true seals point backward, and these seals move on land with an up-and-down undulating motion. Fur seals and sea lions can rotate their hind feet and use them to walk along with some speed. Also, fur seals are so-named because they have thick fur that can trap air and help keep them warm. True seals have thin fur and use blubber for insulation.

There are 18 species of true seals, according to Seals World. The largest is the southern elephant seal. Males are massive, weighing up to 8,500 lbs. (3,855.5 kilograms). Females are much smaller, but still weigh more than a car at 2,000 lbs. (907.18 kg). Males measure about 20 feet long (6 meters), while females are about half as long.

The Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary is home to one fifth of California's harbor seals. These marine mammals rely on safe havens within the Sanctuary to haul-out, rest, and breed.

The smallest is the ringed seal, with an average length of 5 feet (1.5 m) and a weight of 110 to 150 lbs. (50 to 70 kg). Unlike other seals, males and females are about the same size. The ringed seal is the most common seal in the Arctic, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

There are 16 species of eared seals; seven of them are sea lion species. One of the most recognized species, according to the NOAA, is the California sea lion, which is often featured doing tricks at zoos and aquariums. In the wild, these animals live along the West Coast of North America. They are often seen sunning themselves on beaches, docks and jetties. Males average about 700 lbs. (315 kg) and can reach above 1,000 lbs. (455 kg). Females average 240 lbs. (110 kg). [ Gallery: Seals of the World]

True seals typically live in the cold ocean waters of the Arctic or off the coasts of Antarctica. Some seals make caves in the snow to live in. Others never leave the ice pack and poke breathing holes in the ice, according to the National Snow and Ice Data Center. Harp, ringed, hooded, spotted, bearded and ribbon seals live in the Arctic. Crabeater, Weddell, leopard and Ross seals live in the Antarctic.

Fur seals and sea lions live in the Northern Pacific between Asia and North America and off the coasts of South America, Antarctica, southwestern Africa and southern Australia. They can spend about two years in the open ocean before returning to their breeding grounds, according to the NOAA.

Seals generally prey on fish, but they will also eat eel, squid, octopus and lobster. Leopard seals will eat penguins and smaller seals, according to Seals World. The gray seal can eat 10 pounds (4.53 kilograms) of food in one day. They sometimes skip eating for a few days, and often stop eating completely during mating season and will live off energy from their stored-up blubber for weeks.

When mating season comes, male seals will issue deep, throaty calls to attract the attention of females. A male seal will also call out to let other males know that his females are spoken for. Males are very territorial when it comes to mating. They will fight for the right to mate, hitting and biting each other. The winner gets the chance to mate with up to 50 females in their area.

Mothers carry their young for a gestation period of around 10 months. When they feel the time is right, some seals will dig nests in the sand on which to have their young. Seals and sea lions have just one pup a year. Others, like the harp seal, will have their babies directly on icebergs. Baby seals, called pups, will stay on land until their waterproof fur grows in. This can take around a month.

Females will mate and become pregnant again as soon as her pups are weaned. Males are not able to mate until they are around 8 years old, because it takes that long for them to grow big enough and strong enough to win a mating fight.

All pinnipeds - phocids (true seals), otariids (eared seals) and odobenids (walruses) - are in different families in the suborder Caniformia (doglike carnivores) and are related to dogs, coyotes, foxes, wolves, skunks, otters and bears.

The taxonomy of seals, according to ITIS, is:

Eared seals (fur seals and sea lions)

Kingdom: Animalia

Phylum: Chordata

Class: Mammalia

Order: Carnivora

Suborder: Caniformia

Family: Otariidae

Genera and species:

Arctocephalus (southern fur seals - eight species)

Callorhinus ursinus (northern fur seal)

Eumetopias jubatus (northern sea lion or Stellar sea lion)

Neophoca cinerea (Australian sea lion)

Otaria flavescens (South American sea lion)

Phocarctos hookeri (New Zealand sea lion)

Zalophus (California sea lions - three species)

True seals

Kingdom: Animalia

Phylum: Chordata

Class: Mammalia

Order: Carnivora

Suborder: Caniformia

Family: Phocidae

Genera and species:

Cystophora cristata (hooded seal)

Erignathus barbatus (bearded seal)

Halichoerus grypus (gray seal)

Histriophoca fasciata (ribbon seal)

Hydrurga leptonyx (leopard seal)

Leptonychotes weddellii (Weddell seal)

Lobodon carcinophaga (crabeater seal)

Mirounga (elephant seals - two species)

Monachus (monk seals - three species)

Ommatophoca rossii (Ross seal)

Pagophilus groenlandicus (harp seal)

Phoca (hair seals, harbor seals)

Pusa (Caspian seal, ringed seal, Baikal seal)

All pinnipeds - seals, sea lions and walruses - are protected in U.S. waters under the Marine Mammal Protection Act, according to NOAA. Most seals are not considered endangered, according to the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). There are a few exceptions, though. The Galápagos fur seal and the monk seal are both endangered. Some local populations, such as gray seals in the Baltic Sea, are endangered. The northern fur seal and hooded seal are vulnerable. The Caribbean monk seal was declared extinct in 2008.

The crabeater seal has the largest population of any species of seal in the world. It is estimated there are 2 million to 75 million individual seals, according to the IUCN.

Elephant seals have what is called "smoker's blood" because they have the same amount of carbon monoxide in their blood as a person who smokes 40 or more cigarettes each day, according to researchers. Scientists think this high level of gas in their blood may protect them when they dive to deep levels in the ocean.

Harp seals can stay underwater for up to 15 minutes. Weddell seals are even more impressive. The can stay underwater for up to 80 minutes. They only pop up for air when they find holes in the ice layers above the ocean.

Rugby Union in New Zealand is administered by the New Zealand Rugby Union. There are provincial union who support Rugby Clubs and Schools with rugby teams.

Age to start:

The New Zealand Rugby Union offers a program called 'Rippa Rugby' for children starting in the Under 6 year age group. The Small Blacks Development Model has three modified versions of the game aimed at introducing children aged 5 to 12 years to rugby union in a modified and safe environment.

There are under 19 age group rules for players aged 13 to 19 years that incorporate specific safety laws tailored for the developing rugby player.

Rules of the game:

The basic rules of rugby union are:

1. There are 15 players on each team with 7 players that can be used for injury replacement or substitutions.

2. The aim of the game is to score points by scoring a try, a conversion goal, a penalty goal or a dropped goal.

3. A try is worth 5 points, a conversion goal 2 points, a penalty goal 3 points and a dropped goal 3 points.

4. A player may receive the ball from a teammate via a pass only if they are behind them and then advance the ball by running with it. The aim is to score a try at the other end of the field.

5. The field is a rectangle 70 metres wide and 100 metres long.

Find the full list of rugby union rules

Suitability:

Rippa Rugby is suitable for primary aged children. They are able to participate in rugby union at an introductory level in a safe environment. The program introduces children to the basic skills and principles of rugby union whilst developing important basic motor skills.

The Small Blacks program is suitable for children between 5 to 12 years to participate in rugby union in a modified and safe environment.

Both Rippa Rugby and the Small Blacks program both recognize the physical nature of rugby union and are therefore specifically designed for children to begin their participation in the sport without the risk of serious injury.

Rugby Union is a contact sport so that risk of injury needs to be taken into account when considering whether to participate.

Sign up dates:

Sign up dates may vary depending on the particular club. As rugby union is a sport that is played during the winter months, many clubs have their registration days in February. It is suggested you contact your local club for specific details regarding sign-up dates and times. It may be that your child plays in a school team for interschool games but plays for a local club on Saturdays.

Sporting tips:

To successfully participate in rugby union you should;

Be physically fit

Possess good ball skills, in particular catching and passing

Possess good vision

Be able to operate within a team environment

Be able to play outdoors in sometimes inclement weather conditions

Fastest mammal on land, the cheetah can reach speeds of 60 or perhaps even 70 miles (97 or 113 kilometers) an hour over short distances. It usually chases its prey at only about half that speed, however. After a chase, a cheetah needs half an hour to catch its breath before it can eat.

Fun Cheetah Facts for Kids

Learn more about the cheetah by reading these fun cheetah facts. Cheetahs are part of the big cat family and while they can't climb trees, they can run faster than any other land animal. Read on for more interesting cheetah information.

The cheetah is the fastest land animal in the world. They can reach a top speed of around 113 km per hour.

A cheetah can accelerate from 0 to 113 km in just a few seconds.

Cheetahs are extremely fast however they tire quickly and can only keep up their top speed for a few minutes before they are too tired to continue.

Cheetahs are smaller than other members of the big cat family, weighing only 45 to 60 kilograms.

One way to always recognise a cheetah is by the long, black lines which run from the inside of each eye to the mouth. These are usually called "tear lines" and scientists believe they help protect the cheetah's eyes from the harsh sun and help them to see long distances.

Cheetahs are the only big cat that cannot roar. They can purr though and usually purr most loudly when they are grooming or sitting near other cheetahs.

While lions and leopards usually do their hunting at night, cheetahs hunt for food during the day.

A cheetah has amazing eyesight during the day and can spot prey from 5 km away.

Cheetahs cannot climb trees and have poor night vision.

With their light body weight and blunt claws, cheetahs are not well designed to protect themselves or their prey. When a larger or more aggressive animal approaches a cheetah in the wild, it will give up its catch to avoid a fight.

Cheetahs only need to drink once every three to four days.

Minecraft is a major, global success story.

Now considered one of the biggest games in the world it is based on a very simple premise of mining and building and I promise if your kids haven't already been bitten by the block bug they soon will be. And so here is my guide to Minecraft for clueless parents.

Minecraft might look old-fashioned but it's very clever, lots of fun and incredibly addictive - your children might start putting in some serious hours in front of the PC or TV in order to play it. But should you be worried?

I say probably not. This is not some violent shoot-em-up, it's full of practical lessons and creativity and positivity is encouraged. It's actually a rather charming game...
Age
Minecraft has been rated as suitable for 7+ by PEGI, and for 10+ by ESRB. iTunes has a 4+ rating for their Pocket Edition. Developers Mojang don't allow anyone under the age of 13 to set up an account meaning any new purchase will have to go through a parent.

Of course you know your child and will have your own house rules. Personally I think a sensible tech-savvy 5 year old is fine to play but without allowing online interaction and only in selected modes.

Small fingers might find the fiddly gameplay a little frustrating at first but it's remarkably intuitive and youngsters can pick it up quite easily.
Costs
You can download to a PC or XBox or buy the Xbox game for between £15-£20, so it certainly one of the cheaper games out there. There's a Pocket Version on Apple and Android for £4.99 which doesn't include all features of the main game but with none of those pesky demands for in-app purchases. However, as children progress they might want to buy new 'skins' or 'texture packs' to personalise their worlds.
Creativity

In the same way you'd be happy with your children playing with Lego, Minecraft is all about building - creating structures from scratch using the different cubes and tools in the various landscapes or 'biomes'.

You can build and inhabit whole worlds and because there are no rules and no winning or losing involved, children can build away to their hearts content. The endless and immersive landscapes and resources available makes the scope of what's possible quite incredible.

It's a cliche but the limit really is only your imagination. I've seen subterranean palaces, rollercoasters, whole villages, castles, the Starship Enterprise, pirate ships, libraries and a swimming pool built on a mountain all made from those little blocks. Oh and you can fly too!
Any nightmares?
Younger kids might want to play in 'creative' or 'peaceful' modes rather than 'survival' or 'adventure'.

The Minecraft world is populated by hostile non-player characters ('mobs') such as zombies, spiders, skeletons or the peculiar to the game Creepers - odd green things that hiss and explode.

Of course as rendered from pixellated blocks none of these are really scary but do add a certain thrill to the game that the very young or nervous might find worrying. Hostile mobs only come out at night and in survival mode. Players never actually die - you always 'respawn' - and the worst that could probably happen is you lose a beautiful world you've created.

Yes you can kill the mobs with swords, and multiplayer games can be competitive with players trying to destroy each other, but you can come back to life if you don't want to leave the game.
Problem solving

Your creations are only as good as the tools and resources you can find or make. Minecraft is full of potions, armour, axes, food, torches and all manner of useful objects to mine or discover and that you store in your 'inventory'. But it's how you use them that counts. There is plenty here to stretch young minds!

In survival mode you have to keep your 'health' and 'hunger' up which means building or finding shelter (remember Creepers come out at night) and the animals you encounter (cute sheep, chickens and cows) are needed for food (but don't kill your friendly pets). All raw meat needs to be cooked so you need to make fire from flint and crafting tables are used to make protective armour and tools. Everything you do has real consequences so don't let that fire get out of control...
Online interaction
Your game can be hooked up so that it can be played online with others, usually friends who help you with your creations. Of course this should be monitored if you don't want your child to have interaction with the outside world but older children and their friends will certainly want to share projects and play together in the worlds they have created. Just remember your child should play with a 'gamertag' rather than their real name and you can use your own server to allow you to select only known participants for safety.

Some users modify the original Minecraft and create their own new themed worlds for others to play or compete in, these 'mods' (modifications) can take on any guise with films and shows like The Hunger Games, Dr Who, Harry Potter and Superheroes being popular.

There are plenty of Minecraft videos on YouTube and your child will love to watch how some of these 'super users' tackle the game, their worlds can be incredible. These are fun and exciting but can get a bit sweary so it's best to look for gamers whose language isn't so fruity, these guys are usually clean 'Stampylonghead', 'iBallisticSquid' and 'TheDiamondMinecart' (probably not their real names).
Getting help
This is a complex game. There's a huge amount of fan forums and an Official Beginners Handbook, which is a great place to start for older kids who are really keen on getting the most out of Minecraft and discovering all it has to offer.

The Minecraft community is large, positive and helpful so look at the community page on the official site to get set up and for tips.

Happy mining kids!

How It Helps

This game is good for kids who need help with Focus, Flexibility, Organization, Planning and Time Management. Read on to find out why.
Focus - Getting started and then maintaining attention and effort to tasks.
Players must monitor their hunger and health meters throughout the game in order to not fall prey to starvation or monsters lurking in the darkness. To replenish these meters, players must consume food. Food can be obtained in a wide variety of ways, such as hunting wild animals, farming, or even baking cakes. However players choose to live in the game is entirely up to them, but trouble will arise if they fail to remain constantly aware of surroundings, inventory, and health. Because Minecraft's environment is randomly generated, players must be highly aware of their surroundings in order to navigate the vast landscape. Players can easily become lost in the border-less world if they do not pay strict attention to their relationship with the landmarks around them or the direction in which they start their journeys. Before players are able to craft some of the more complex items such as a compass or map, they must first rely on the rising and setting of the sun and the surrounding biomes to navigate the world.
Flexibility - Adapting and adjusting to changing conditions and expectations.
In order to create anything in Minecraft players must learn to 'craft' new objects by arranging materials found in the world to fit the recipe of the desired item. The problem is that the player cannot discover these recipes until he/she creates the item for it. This backwards approach to item creation rewards intuitive and creative players with tools, weapons, furniture, items, and dozens of other objects they can use in their world. With each new material found in the game the number of items to craft grows exponentially, which allows flexible, creative players to utilize all of the hundreds of objects the game provides. Perhaps the most jarring aspect of the game to newcomers is the randomized environment. Unlike other games that have fixed levels or maps, Minecraft's terrain generator provides an infinite and unique world with every new game. Because players can no longer memorize level layouts, enemy positions, or item locations they must develop their abilities to adapt and improvise on the fly.
Organization - Arranging and coordinating materials and activities in order to complete a task.
Early in the game players will realize the importance of keeping themselves and their materials not only safe, but organized. Players will often first build a house to seek shelter from enemies at night and store their items. Building in Minecraft is essentially playing with virtual building blocks, the only difference is you must actually dig up the blocks of earth before you can place them elsewhere. The only limitations on what you build are the players' creativity and organization. While the number of blocks available to the player is limitless, it still requires time and effort to harvest the blocks. Because of this fact players must learn to plan ahead and manage their materials carefully in order to build effectively. When a player's inventory becomes full from crafting items, gathering materials, and collecting any other treasures available in the world they must craft a storage container to hold their excess items. Later in the game when players have done some exploration and built several houses/buildings it is crucial to keep all of your items and materials organized. Having several storage containers for different item types and paying close attention to the character's inventory will make the game much simpler in the long-run and make the players experience much more enjoyable.
Planning - Developing a systematic approach for setting and achieving goals.
Minecraft is commonly compared to LEGOS, and for good reason. Like the popular building block past time, Minecraft allows players to build anything they can imagine -- so long as they take the proper steps necessary to do so. Creating items and structures takes several steps. Players must first mine for materials, combine those materials to create tools, and then use those tools to build and mine faster. From fireplaces to mansions, as long as the player takes the time to plan out the steps required to build something, it can be done. Users have recreated everything from replicas of the pyramids and the Globe Theatre to actual circuits and working elevators in the game, each requiring an extensive amount of foresight to construct.
Time Management - Being efficient and aware of our use of time and effort.
In Minecraft, players will need to actively monitor the time and effort they expend toward specific goals. Not only will players need to compete agains the game time cycles of night and day, but working toward a singular goal without effectively managing time can often result in the neglect of other important goals. During periods of night, players must have an effective shelter constructed to defend against the wild beasts that reside in the Minecraft universe. Working toward a singular goal during the day while failing segment time to address other equally important tasks can be potentially fatal. Additionally, many goals in Minecraft take large periods of both game and real time to complete. Players who are able to successfully multitask, switch quickly between objectives, and devote proper amounts of time to their objectives are more likely to meet their own deadlines and advance further in their gameplay than players who are unable to effectively manage their time.
Use this PlayTogether guide to learn how you can help your child turn Minecraft play time into a positive learning and relationship-building experience. To learn more about why playing games with your children is so important, check out our Science of Play page.
Talk Before You Play

Take a minute to talk with your child about how the Focus, Flexibility, Organization, Planning, and Time Management thinking skills work, and why they are important for success in school and at home.

Set Gameplay Goals

There a few different options available for you to explore Minecraft with your child. The best option is to play on Xbox 360, as that version features a cooperative multiplayer mode. Otherwise, you can either each play on separate computers, or -- if you own and Android device -- download the app off of Google Play. There are demo versions avaialble, and even if you only have a single computer to use, the open nature of the gameplay makes it easy for two players to enjoy the game together, taking turns exploring and coming up with ideas of what to build.

It may be helpful to have the crafting guide open to help get acclimated with the game. Below is a list of several suggestions for beginner players to complete in their first foray into the Minecraft world:

Punch down a tree and craft a workbench!

Craft a shovel, pickaxe, and sword.

Build your first house.

Craft stone items.

Bonus: Make Iron!

Stop and Reflect

After at least the first four goals above have been met, take a moment to pause the game and talk to your child about how each thinking skills was used in the game.

Discuss how being aware of your surroundings is crucial for navigating the world, finding new materials, and building with them. Also, reinforce the importance of monitoring your health and hunger meters so you do not starve or die from falls or attacks.

After your child has completed the first tasks highlighted above encourage them to try new combinations without using a guide to craft items or objects. Briefly touch upon the benefits of remaining flexible in the game such as: not getting stuck doing one chore, adapting to enemy threats, or navigating new or strange areas.

Remind your child to keep their inventories organized and have all the tools they will readily need on their quick access bar located at the bottom of the screen. Also, if they have collected a large number of goods suggest crafting a storage container to hold some of it in their house as they explore.

Discuss all the steps that go into building a house in Minecraft. How do you prepare? What order do you build the house components? Why is it important to plan how you want the house to look before getting started?
Our Make it Work activities are designed to transform your child's gameplay to real-world improvements in thinking and academic skills. If you're just getting started with LearningWorks for Kids, we suggest you try them all to find which are the best for you and your child.
Introduce the Thinking Skills

Read over the pages for Focus, Flexibility, Organization, Planning, and Time Management. Then take some time to introduce these thinking skills to your child.
Explain that:

Focus is the thinking skill that helps us maintain our attention and effort, start tasks and keep working on something without getting distracted.

Flexibility is the thinking skill that helps us adapt to new situations, learn from mistakes and change what we are doing in order to deal with different challenges.

Organization is the thinking skill that helps us to arrange and coordinate materials and activities in order to complete a task.

Planning is the thinking skill that helps us to develop a systematic approach for setting and achieving goals. It helps us to do things step-by-step, and to complete long-term projects on time.

Focus Activity

Encourage decision-making but provide directed encouragement. Your child, like many who have difficulties in getting started on tasks, might feel unsure of herself. It would inspire growth and confidence to encourage her to pick out books at the library, choose a movie for you to watch together or decide on a restaurant for a family dinner. But for getting started on specific tasks, some direct cues and prompts might be more efficient. You don't want to do or say too much, but rather than wasting time by asking, "What homework do you have tonight?" or "When are you going to do your homework?" simply direct him to begin his work and/or tell him exactly how to start. Talk about other methods or strategies that help. Examples might be a regular homework time or a time limit on making a minor decision.

Flexibility Activity

Use nontraditional art projects to practice a variety of approaches to using the same materials. Your construction supplies could include a range of collected cardboard, string, jelly beans, paste, clay, and pipe cleaners, just to name a few. The building plans could include a specific project (making a house or shelter), an abstract object (shapes and colors), or an organized design that requires using materials in a certain order. Talk about how these various ways of making something require different skills, and compare the results.

Organization Activity

Some assembly required. Visual instructions for a Lego project or a piece of furniture can help children to see the steps of starting, organizing and completing a project. These models can help children construct their own types of "hard copy" for using illustrated directions or their own visualization skills. Offer reminders of these tools and procedures when children have a multi-step project to do.

Planning Activity

Anticipate needs. Plan together for what your child might need for school. Begin with a list of essential supplies such as pencils, notebooks, markers, backpack, and lunch box. Then list other materials or things she would like to bring to school and decide together which items to purchase. Gradually encourage your child to make these lists on her own. Encourage your child to think about how to determine the most important items to purchase.

Time Management Activity

Gimme a break. If your child has stagnated while performing a task, such as schoolwork or a chore, get him to move quickly doing something else. This could be a physical activity such as going for a quick bike ride, or something as simple as singing a song at a quickened pace. Getting him to move quickly in a fun (or even funny) activity may help him to become more aware of his pace in relation to other activities. Another strategy would be to take a 5-10 minute exercise break, which could include anything from doing a set of push-ups or situps, running up and down the stairs, or taking the dog out for a short walk. Initially, a parent will want to be in charge of when such breaks occur, but eventually we want the child to learn to identify when he needs to take a break himself, and furthermore, to be able to demonstrate that he is using the break responsibly by coming back to work better than before.

THIS GAME IS ALSO GOOD FOR KIDS WHO NEED HELP WITH:

Mathematics

While playing Minecraft, players work toward a number of personally created goals by working with an enormous variety of raw materials. In order to achieve their goals, players must craft items ranging from building materials, to tools and food. Each crafted item requires the combination of a predetermined amount of prerequisite items. Players will compute basic math skills when determining the number of raw materials required to work toward a goal. For example, when crafting specific and more durable tools, players will need to compute the amount of raw materials required to craft other items which will then be combined to create their new tool. Working with both multiplication and division, players can determine the amount of time, effort, and resources that will be required to devote toward achieving their goals. Working efficiently requires mathematics so that players do not over-spend their time harvesting necessary materials, or fall short and needlessly backtrack to make up for the difference.

Minecraft & Autism Spectrum Disorder

Minecraft is a hugely popular game where children are dropped into a randomly-generated world with little instruction or guidance, and must explore the land to gather materials needed to build and survive. For children who find it difficult dealing with unstructured settings, the game serves as a fun tool to encourage adaptable thinking and flexibility. The multiplayer features foster cooperation and teamwork, making it of use to kids who find it difficult when they must work with others to accomplish a goal, especially in an unstructured setting.
How to Use Minecraft for Children with ASD:

Understanding social clues and interacting with others can be challenging from many children affected by ASD, but Minecraft offers an opportunity to help in a safe setting. Your child may wish to build or create her world alone, but have her work and communicate others to accomplish her goals rather than focus on her individual needs. This will teach her how to speak and respond with others as well as learn how to work together with friends on a mutual goal. Because Minecraft is so widely played, an interest and expertise in it will give a child affected by autism many opportunities for interactions and conversations with peers.

When she's playing Minecraft, she may not have the tools she wants or the animals she needs to build what she desires. She'll have to be flexible with her thinking in order to play. She'll either have to think about how she can use the tools and materials she has to build what she wants, or think flexibly about her plans in order to adapt them to her current capacities in the game. Talk with your child about thinking flexibly instead of getting frustrated when encountering these situations, or asking fellow players in her community for help.

Playing Minecraft requires patience and self-control, especially when things don't go as planned. She may make a mistake, or her building might get damaged or destroyed, or she may run out of materials. When confronted with these situations, teach her to seek out solutions rather than letting frustration get the better of her. How can she better fortify her building against creepers next time? Where can she build for better resources in materials? Show her how each mistake is actually an opportunity to learn.

Minecraft & ADHD:

Lengthy planning, keen organizational skills and the ability to sustain focus over prolonged periods of time are not traits commonly attributed to children diagnosed with ADHD. Yet, those are the very skills players need to put to work in order to achieve success and survive the dangers of Minecraft.

Using the game as an educational tool for children with ADHD can help reinforce the cognitive thinking skills this population of children commonly struggle with. Follow our guidelines below to see how you can use Minecraft to teach and practice good Focus, Planning and Organization skills with your child.

How to Use Minecraft for Children with ADHD:

Set strict play time rules. By limiting your child's exposure to the game into regimented time slots, you're not only helping avoid the risk over addictive use of the game (something kids with ADHD are at risk for), but also causing your child to maximize play time. This helps reinforce the need of proper planning and sustained attention, as an absent-minded approach will lead to little progress within the limited time.

Set some goals. The best way to get going in the game is to set some very basic goals. These include collecting mined materials, building a workbench to craft items upon, and constructing some simple shelter before nightfall. Make sure to discuss all the steps involved and the need the focus on the task at hand in order to achieve your goals before nightfall - and monsters! - arrive.

Set some bigger goals. Once you discussed how setting some simple goals early on required good Planning and Focus skills, really put them to work by scaffolding up the challenge and going for something big. This could include venturing out into uncharted land to set up a second home base, or traveling into the depth to tunnel out new mining material. Explain why poor planning and a lack of focus will likely lead to failure, and how breaking the tasks into smaller steps and remaining attentive help improve the chances for success.

Re-create something from the real world. Now that you've tackled some bigger projects, go for something a bit more challenging. Have your child pick something to re-create in the game from real life. Preferably, this should be something easily accessible, either at home or online, as you'll want to be able to easily reference it to ensure an authentic virtual counterpart. Grab a pen and paper and be thorough. List the needed materials, plot out a spot to build it in the game and start creating your structure. Try to go for something really big, so that you're child can see the benefits of goal-directed persistence and preparation.

Dinosaur Facts for Kids

Enjoy our fun dinosaur facts for kids and learn about everything from the ferocious Tyrannosaurus Rex to the enormous Diplodocus.

While dinosaurs came a long time before us humans, fossils and modern technology have helped us piece together what dinosaurs may have looked like and even how they might have behaved. Read on for a wide range of cool dinosaur facts that are perfect for kids.

The word dinosaur comes from the Greek language and means 'terrible lizard'. The word was coined by English paleontologist Richard Owen in 1842 and was meant to refer to Dinosaurs impressive size rather than their scary appearance.

Dinosaurs ruled the Earth for over 160 million years, from the Triassic period around 230 million years ago through the Jurassic period and until the end of the Cretaceous period around 65 million years ago.

The time period from 250 million years ago until around 65 million years ago is known as the Mesozoic Era. It is often referred to as the Age of the Dinosaurs because most dinosaurs developed and became extinct during this time.

It is believed that dinosaurs lived on Earth until around 65 million years ago when a mass extinction occurred.

Scientists believe that the event leading to the extinction may have been a massive asteroid impact or huge volcanic activity. Events such as these could have blocked out sunlight and significantly changed the Earth's ecology.

The first dinosaur to be formally named was the Megalosaurus, back in 1824.

A person who studies dinosaurs is known as a paleontologist.

Rather than being carnivores (meat eaters), the largest dinosaurs such as the Brachiosaurus and Apatosaurus were actually herbivores (plant eaters).

To help fight meat eaters such as the Allosaurus or Spinosaurus, many plant eaters had natural weapons at their disposal. Examples of this include the spikes on the tail of the Stegosaurus and the three horns attached to the front of the Triceratops's head shield.

Pterodactyls are not dinosaurs, they were flying reptiles that lived during the age of dinosaurs but by definition they do not fall into the same category. The same goes for water based reptiles such as Plesiosaurs.

Birds descended from a type of dinosaurs known as theropods.

Despite being long extinct, dinosaurs are frequently featured in the media. One of the more memorable examples of this is Michael Crichton's 1990 book Jurassic Park. Adapted to movie in 1993, the story features cloned dinosaurs brought to life with the help of DNA found in mosquitoes trapped in amber.
