In movies and in cartoons, animals are portrayed as the cute and cuddly creatures that man would want to have as their best friend. Teddy bears who can sing melodious tunes, dogs who can dance and talk, birds who can serenade princesses are the stuffs that fairytales and movies are made off. Watching these animals do their tricks, we would likely think to have them as pets.

However, this fantasy is far from reality. In the real world teddy bears do not sing they growl when provoked, dogs cannot dance and talk they bark when they see someone who invades their territory, and birds who are predators threaten to share our food when we are out on camping trips. Not all animals are bad per se. They too have a role to play to maintain the delicate balance of our ecosystem. Some of them though show their animal instincts for survival especially if we threaten them.

There have been reports that people who go on camping trips were attacked by bears. Some of them were lucky enough to have brought animal repellents to ward off attacks. Those who were not ready enough suffered; some sustained major and minor injuries while others had to face the worst. Snakes, dogs, mosquitoes, insects, and other wild animals are just a few of the animals that are warded off by repellents that are sold in the market today.

Animal repellents can prevent ferocious animals from getting near us. Some of these repellents contain scents and odors that animals stay away from. The use of these repellents has been recommended to campers, backpackers, and to home owners.

Contrary to popular belief, animal repellents does not directly kill the animal it just wards them off or distract their attention for us to easily escape when we are attacked. Due to this, these repellents have the seal of approval from nature lovers and pet lovers alike.

The three bears had their own place to sit; your child deserves a seat of his own too A chair may not seem like a very exciting Christmas gift. This is usually the thought of the parent. Children see things a bit differently. Even with the competition of dolls, cars, blocks or games calling for a child’s attention a chair just their size usually is a sought out and fought over prize.

Think about it for a moment: your baby or toddler lives in a world hugely out of their reach. The kitchen table towers of their heads, the couch and arm chairs they see mommy and daddy sitting in so comfortably can only be reached with help or after a monumental climb that takes months of preparation to complete. The cupboards and storage areas are huge, high and often off limits to your child’s curious little fingers.

Yet in this huge over sized world your baby and toddler watch you, and learn by mimicking your every move. Our children when they are smallest want to do and be exactly what they see mom or dad doing or being. Add to the desire to emulate their parents the stubbornness of a toddler ardently wishing to do it himself, and a chair just your baby’s size does not seem like such a boring gift anymore. You still don’t buy into the depth of a child’s desire to fit into the adult world of their mom or dad? Take a stroll down the toy aisles as you shop for holiday gifts suited to your 18-month old son or daughter. What do you see: dolls, mini babies for toddler’s hands to soothe; cars and trucks for children to drive; cell phones; tea sets and cookware; tools to rival the collection of even the most well equipped handyman; there are even toys devoted to mimicking cleaning supplies which are hugely popular. Thinking of giving your child a toy broom and dustpan puts the idea of a chair into perspective.

There are many kinds of chairs you can choose from for your toddler. Deciding how and where your child will use their chair will help you zero in on the perfect one. For example a chair for use in the kitchen will have different specifications than a chair used in the family room or a bedroom. You will find tiny wooden rocking chairs that are so elegant they will look at home in the most perfectly appointed rooms.

Want something just fun with lots of bold colors? There are chairs for that too! You will find soft fabric and foam chairs, as well as wooden, plastic or metal chairs. Some chairs are tiny replicas of their larger cousins made for grown up bodies, others are wild and fun designs only for children’s use. There are even chairs dedicated to favorite classical and modern childhood characters.
