It’s me, Herrrrman the Horse. I have a tip that might make walking in the outdoors a little more enjoyable for you, even on a winter day. You might want to wear layers of clothing instead of heavy coats or sweaters. That way, if you get too hot, you can remove a layer at a time and still be comfortable and cool. Enjoy your walk, .

. It’s me, Clucky the Chicken here. I’d like to share a tip on child safety. Young children like to run around the house but don’t always look where they are going. It’d help them if you have some decorative tape or label at the child ’s height on the side of the doors. Then your little ones will clearly see the doors are there, even when playing games.

I’m Billy the Goat. Now that the Christmas season is around the corner, I have a great tip on decorating your home and artificial Christmas tree with eco-friendly lights. You might want to think about using LEDs (which is short for light-emitting diodes). They last much longer, and use 80% to 90% less power than incandescent bulbs. Also, they stay cool to the touch, so are child-friendly. .

Healthy and interesting using salads
|
|
|
. I’m Lionardo the Lion here with a couple of tips on how to make mealtimes exciting, healthy and interesting using salads. The key to a delicious salad is vegetables at the peak of freshness and ripeness. Tomatoes become much sweeter, if you keep them for a few days in a dark place at room temperature and then transfer them to a refrigerator when they are ripe. Also, you might want to use vegetables of different colors! A salad mixed with green, white, red, and yellow components ensures a full range of health-promoting minerals, vitamins, antioxidants, and enzymes.
