A Busy Month at ACS September is a busy month at the ACS, among the regularly scheduled programs, ACS is diligently working on the Job Fair for Sept. 17 and the up coming AFAP which will be held on October 21 - 22. Many laborious hours of training and organization have to go into both these programs to ensure their success. Another very important program ACS looks forward to this month is the Military Family of the Year. Nominations are open the 1st of September and will go through October 5th. The Military Family of the Year is one way, not only the military can show appreciation to Army Families but, the Garrison as well. It also reinforces the Army's commitment to the Army Family Covenant. Nominated Families will have their photos taken by a professional photographer and will receive an 11 " x 17" print of their family portrait, in addition to a dinner in their honor. If you want to nominate a family for this prestigious event, no matter the Rank, forward their info and why they embody what the Army Family can and should be, to area3mwrmarketing@korea.army.mil

Tips of the month Healthy habits that fight cold and flu viruses. How soon should your kids learn how to avoid cold and flu viruses? The sooner the better... HHealthy habits for kids: Handwashing It's important to do handwashing well. Always use warm water and soap. The CDC recommends that people wash their hands for the amount of time it takes to sing "Happy Birthday" twice, about 15 to 20 seconds. If soap and water aren't available, an alcoholbased gel will work too. Just make sure that your kids really scrub their hands for about 20 seconds. They are done when the gel has completely evaporated. There are always kids who resist hand washing. What can you do? Make it Fun! Make them do the dishes: doesn't sound fun to us, but toddlers and preschool age kids love playing in the sink. So instead of getting into a struggle, let them stand on a chair by the sink, give them the soap and a dish to wash. If they keep at it for a few minutes their hands will be pretty clean. Remember, as always accompany your child during this fun excercise and maybe doing the dishes won't be so boring anymore. Choose the right soap: A bar of white soap can seem pretty dull. But if you can find a soap that catches your little one's attention, with a fruity smell or cartoon character on the bottle, you might have a better luck with hand washing.
Activities at the CDC Singing and dancing, we are all having fun at the CDC!
Strong Beginings Strong Beginings is a full or part day program designed to build up to Kindergarden etiquette and focus on academic excellence which will help children transition to Kindergarden. Using the building blocks children already have, Strong Beginings refines their skills. This progrma is designed for 4 and 5 year olds and runs from 900 to 1300 each day.
Read to your Children For young children, books that rhyme and have rhythm are excellent. Be sure to read Mother Goose Rhymes often. You will find your child learning the words or words that SOUND like those from the book, and saying them back to you. You might be tired of reading that book for the 50th time but your child loves to spend time with you this way. Books with few words and bright pictures are also great to keep his/her attention. Elaborate on other things on the page too.
Share Hispanic Heritage Join us September 17 as the CDC will celebrate Hispanic Heritage. Heritage dances will be performed from 1630 - 1800. We will also explore the culture through the language, stories and books, food Dance, Music and fun! If you would like to share your culture with CDC children give us a call at 753-8601

Review
Camp Adventure is a professionally operated youth summer camp program, for youth 1st - 5th grades, that features weekly themes designed to be both fun and developmental.
H
We thought it would be great to let people know just exactly what Camp Adventure is and why the program is so much fun. Next year your child can get in on the fun. Mark your calendars because sign ups usually begin in May for the 2011 Camp Adventure. No sense in missing out on the all the fun!

September Technology Tip Let technology work for you in ways you wouldn't expect. Most everyone who reads the Family Strong also shops at the commissary. Have you ever deciphered the price labels on the shelves? These labels are printed from a database that makes some calculations based on data. One interesting aspect of these labels is the detail that shows you how much an item is per ounce, per pound or each (bottom right). This can be a beneficial tool when comparing prices and determining the best value for your buck. Start taking a look at the cost per ounce and you will notice that buying bigger is not always better.
