Ways to keep your children active during the summer

According to Khy Sline, a member of the education team at KinderCare Learning Center, physical activity is crucial for gross motor development and overall growth. Providing children with the means to use their bodies and make connections between their minds and bodies can help them flourish.

To encourage children to be more active, you can try the following activities:

indoors or outdoors using furniture draped with sheets or cardboard boxes, it allows children to move over, under, around, and through, thus improving their coordination and balance.

By Desert Star Staff

Regardless of age, engaging in physical activity daily is beneficial for everyone. The Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention (CDC) suggests that young children remain active throughout the day for proper growth and development. Although

children may be believed to be constantly in motion, the CDC advises caregivers to promote physical activity during playtime.

Blow bubbles: This classic activity can entertain children of all ages. Infants can try reaching for and grabbing bubbles, improving their arm strength and coordination. Meanwhile, toddlers and older children can chase and pop bubbles while running around on the patio or lawn.

Creating a tunnel is a great idea to encourage kids to move differently. Whether you construct it

Another fun activity for kids is playing hide and seek. While looking for the best hiding spot, they develop a sense of spatial awareness, which helps them understand where their bodies are about other people and objects.

Let’s play red light, green light! It’s great for kids’ coordination and impulse control. Add variations like tiptoeing and crawling. Another activity for balance and coordination is walking along a line drawn on the ground.

Get creative with a wavy or zig-zag line. Encourage hopping, skipping, and other ways to travel. Let’s have fun!

George Santos Pleads Not Guilty to Federal Charges

By Desert Star Staff

George Santos, a Long Island Republican, has been indicted on 13 serious federal charges, including wire fraud, money laundering, theft of public funds, and lying to the US House. As a newly elected congressman, he stands accused of involvement in various fraudulent schemes and making false statements. The allegations claim that he used political donations for personal gain, applied for unemployment benefits intended for those who lost their jobs during the pandemic and lied on financial disclosure forms. Furthermore, he misrepresented his financial situation when running for Congress in 2020 and 2022. Despite the charges, he has pleaded not guilty.

Santos, who has been in office for only four months, has denied the charges against him in a written plea. Despite the accusations, he refused to step down from Congress and intends to run for reelection. Santos surrendered himself at a suburban Long Island courthouse and was granted bail of $500,000 by the judge. After his arraignment, he was released from custody. The AP reported these developments.

Santos is currently facing felony charges due to his false resume and using a fake email address linked to a fraudulent LinkedIn profile. This scandal is part of a more extensive investigation into the congressman’s alleged deceitful behavior. According to prosecutors, Santos’ main objective was to make himself

appear wealthy by creating a false personal history and attempting to scam donors for his upcoming campaign.

During his arraignment, Santos remained silent except when the judge inquired if he understood the charges against him and the possible punishment of up to 20 years in jail if found guilty. Santos replied with a clear affirmative to both questions. His legal representative, Joe Murray, was seated beside him, while Vish Burra, a staff member, was situated three rows behind.

According to the indictment, he is accused of using a limited liability company he controlled to collect funds from donors for his 2022 congressional campaign under the guise of

Too Many Kids Age Out of Foster Care Without a Permanent Family

By Desert Star Staff

A new report shows the number of people between the ages 14 to 21 in the foster-care system has dropped by about half over 15 years - and that the reasons they enter the system are evolving. Researchers from the Annie E. Casey Foundation found that in the Golden State, the percentage of kids entering foster care due to neglect went from 26% in 2006 to 66% in 2021.

Angela Vázquez with the Children’s Partnership said neglect means poverty, especially in a wealthy

state such as California.

“We are pulling young people into a system that is not trauma-informed because their families are poor and lack real access to the kinds of services they would need,” she said.

The number of teens entering the system due to abuse went up three percentage points. And those entering due to behavior problems dropped from 45% to 11% over the same period. However, there is some good news - the report also found a significant drop in group homes and

runaways and a greater emphasis on placement with foster families, relatives, and supervised independent living.

The state offers lifeskills training, vocational training, mentoring, and housing assistance to help transition to adulthood.

But Todd Lloyd, with the

Annie E. Casey Foundation, said only 57% of foster kids older than 14 receive those services. And only 24% are still in the system at age 19.

“We encourage states to consider ways that they can encourage young people to remain in foster care after the age of 18 If they don’t have a permanent family,”

Lloyd said. “But we’ve seen nationally that the utilization of extended foster care after 18 is very low.” Data show that in 2020, only 26% of foster kids in California exited the system because they found a permanent home - and 70% left when they became emancipated or aged out.
