Eyeglasses For Your Teen

Posted on by

Has your teen just learned that she needs to wear eyeglasses? Does she feel like her world is going to fall apart because she’s afraid of what “everyone” is going to say about her? Maybe she’s decided she’ll never leave her room again, or she won’t wear her glasses when she’s out of your sight?

Looks are important during the teen years, especially fitting in with how your friends look and what they wear. If someone makes a comment that you look different it feels like you’re going to be branded “different” forever. When choosing prescription glasses, a teen needs to find a pair that makes him or her feel fashionable so they’ll fit in. Keep in mind that they’re either going to be wearing their glasses for reading or all the time.  You want to assure they’ll wear them.

Not only is it important that your teen likes the glasses chosen, but be sure that they fit his or her face, coloring and style. Let your teen take his or her time in making a choice. If buying glasses online, there’s nothing wrong with you visiting a number of brick and mortar stores to try on glasses to see what looks good. Be patient because it’s best that your teen be comfortable with their choice. It may even be a good idea to buy 2 pairs of glasses, which you can afford to do if you’re buying from GlassesUSA.com, so they can switch pairs. They can also have an extra pair in case one is lost.

Buying eyeglasses for your teen need not be a chore if you take their thoughts and feelings into consideration.

No More Itchy Wool

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Ramblers Way. All opinions are 100% mine.

I remember wool being itchy – wool blankets, scarves, sweaters. They’d leave a red rash on me and I’d feel like I wanted to scratch my skin off. I also remember putting something made of wool in the washing machine and it coming out 1/3 its size. But that was a long time ago. Now wool is comfy, stylish and can be worn even in warm weather.

With the organic wool from Ramblers Way

  • there are no dyes or chemicals
  • it is soft to the touch and to your skin
  • it is sewn on a special machine that leaves a smooth seam
  • it is machine washable
  • it is lightweight
  • it can be used for layering to maintain warmness
  • it can be worn in warm weather to keep moisture away from your skin
  • no shrinking due to treatment before purchase

Nope, this isn’t the old wool I remember and there’s even undergarments, exercise outfits, as well as shirts. I’d never dream of wearing a wool camisole! Teach your children about how wool is made, visit the sheep and the farmers. Explain that the sheep are not hurt when their fleece is sheered. Perfect clothing for the teen who lives organically too.

Re-imagine wool and buy American made items.

The Green Teen – Book Review

Posted on by

The Green Teen: The Eco-Friendly Teen’s Guide to Saving the Planet by Jenn Savedge is a book on a mission: teach teenagers how to positively impact the environment easily and quickly. The method used to reach this goal is to:

  • Provide tips that teens and tweens care about (clothing, shopping, school, cars)
  • Profile green teens who share what they are doing to inspire them
  • Include facts to back up the tips and the current environmental problems
  • List websites for information

green-teen-bookEasy read:  This can be picked up and read between classes. There’s tons of tips, but since it is written in chapters that are broken up into distinct categories, like “Green Your Lunch” and “Green Giving” your interest is piqued so you can grasp it easily.

Humor: This is a fun book! I loved the phrases the author uses like, “American Idles” for cars that take a long time to warm up before they start and “Trim Your Wasteline” for recycling.

Put It To Work: There are a number of events and programs that are outlined in detail so that the reader, a group of friends, a class or even an entire school can start one. For example, you can learn how to begin a school recycling program or “organize a green event”.

Who Should Read This: Although this book is aimed towards teens, some younger children who read well or who are interested in the environment will learn a great deal from this book. Parents and teachers can take advantage of the information too and inspire their children and students to go green.

About The Author: Jenn Savedge is a mother and former Park Ranger. She truly cares about the environment and writes a blog focusing about this.

Buy The Book:  You can purchase The Green Teen from New Society Publishers directly, from Amazon.com or from Barnes&Noble.com for $14.95.

For more information on the book, the author and to read an excerpt visit The Green Teen online.
