From The Editor Hi Kids, We all know it’s Mother’s Day in March, but did you know it’s also World Water Day on 22nd March? We also observe Earth Hour on 25th March and you can read all about these two dates and why they are so important for the environment in this issue of KidsLife. But it’s not just our planet we should take care of; we need to look after ourselves too. Getting plenty of sleep is vital for our wellbeing so make sure you read all about why sleep is so good for you in our Kidslife Clinic. We need to eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables too. Our featured fruit this month is the grape, the tiny fruit bursting with goodness! March is obviously a very busy month as it’s also the month for World Kidney Day. This global awareness campaign took place on 9th March but it’s not too late to learn about the importance of your kidneys and what you can do to keep them healthy. For those of you with a wanderlust, don’t miss our special feature on the beautiful city of Florence. And if wildlife is your thing, make sure you read all about our little feathered friend, the sparrow. World Sparrow Day is celebrated on 20th March so it’s only right we pay tribute to this special little bird in this month’s issue.

News Ancient ancestors to humans had not one, but two tails
10
It has always been believed that the final segment of the human vertebral column, the coccyx, or tailbone, is the remnant of a lost tail. Now, some researchers assert it may be the vestige of not one but two tails, both of which humans and their closest relatives (great apes) managed to shed over millions of years of evolution. The team, led by Lauren Sallan, an assistant professor of Earth and Environmental Science at the University of Pennsylvania, arrived at this conclusion after analyzing the 350-million yearold fossils of the Aetheretmon. The ancient jawed fish is believed to be a distant common ancestor of modern-day terrestrial animals. When examining the hatchlings of the prehistoric fish, they found two tails, a scaly flexible one, and a fleshy tail fin growing at the same time. This seemingly simple discovery quickly invalidated the centuries-old belief that the modern fish's adult tail fin is an evolutionary add-on to the tail structure shared with ancestral land mammals. The team, who published their findings in the journal Current Biology in December 2016, have a few theories about the fate of the two tails. They hypothesize that over time, the modern fish shed the fleshy tail fin for the more flexible, scaly one, because it made swimming a lot easier. Land animals, on the other hand, preferred the fleshy one which evolved into a variety of tails for a plethora of reasons, from swatting flies, to balance and
visual communication. Apes and humans evolved without either tail as it hindered efficient movement when walking upright. The fossil evidence of the 20 million-year-old ape, Proconsul, shows that it is one of the first primate species to evolve without a tail. The shape of the end of its tailbone is tapered, just as it is in humans, revealing that it had no tail structure. However, though it has lost much of its ancestral function, the remnants of the embryonic tail is still evident in the tailbone. Its growth is stunted because we no longer have the molecular signals that tell it to grow out like our arms and legs. We wonder how life would have been if we still had at least one of the tails!
Wellington giraffe dies after operation Wellington Zoo is mourning the death of its elderly giraffe, Tisa. The 26-year-old female giraffe died following hoof surgery last week. Tisa came to Wellington Zoo in 1991 from Melbourne as part of a breeding programme.
She had five children with her partner Ricky, one of which, Zahara, still lives at the zoo. The zoo also recently lost nineyear-old chimpanzee Beni after it suffered a cut to its leg and also failed to recover from anaesthetic.

Sixty new planets discovered
Adele wins big at the Grammys The Grammys were held on Monday (NZ time). The Grammys are one of the top music award shows in America. It is to recognise outstanding achievement in the music industry. Adele even beat Beyonce’s Lemonade album to win the Album of the Year award. However, in her acceptance speech she herself said that she thought that Beyonce deserved it more. Beyonce did win best urban contemporary album for Lemonade and best music video for her song Formation. Adele also performed a tribute to pop star George Michael who died December 2016. But she had to re-start the song after singing off key. She said “I can’t mess this up for him……. Can we start again?”
In a major scientific discovery, a team of astronomers have identified 60 new planets in our ‘immediate solar neighbourhood’. There is evidence that there could be another 54 on top of that. That is potentially 114 new planets! Scientists are particularly interested in the planet named Gliese 411b which has a rocky surface and is located in the fourth nearest star system to the sun. This planet is a hot “super-Earth” and although it cannot support life, the significance of its discovery means that virtually all the nearest stars to the Sun have planets orbiting them. Planets that could be similar to earth. The results are based on observations taken over a 20 year period by US astronomers using the Keck-I telescope in Hawaii as part of the Lick-Carnegie Exoplanet Survey.

Scientists to bring woolly mammoth back from the dead Can you ever imagine seeing a real woolly mammoth? Well, scientists are said to be just two years away from bringing the woolly mammoth back from extinction. The giant prehistoric creatures could roam the Earth for the first time in 4,500 years after researchers successfully merged genes from the long dead woolly mammoths with that of elephants. Harvard scientists claim they are now within two years of creating a
hybrid embryo that will have all the characteristics of the shaggy beasts. It would have genes for mammoth features such as long hair, thick layers of fat, and cold-resistant blood. The woolly mammoth was roughly the same size as modern African elephants. Males reached shoulder heights between 2.7 and 3.4m and weighed up to 6 tonnes. Females reached 2.6–2.9m in shoulder heights and weighed up to 4 tonnes. A newborn calf weighed about 90 kilograms. March 2017

Fun on the Farm by: Gill Sherry
14
Yasin and Hamza were enjoying their European vacation with their parents. So far, they’d been to Paris, Venice, Munich and London and were now in Edinburgh, the capital city of Scotland. They were staying at a farm about three miles from the city. Yasin thought it was amazing, waking up to the sound of a cockerel and being surrounded by cows and sheep. Hamza thought it was boring and would much rather stay in the city in a big hotel with a swimming pool. Although brothers, the two boys were very different. Yasin had a thirst for knowledge and could usually be found reading a book. Hamza was more of a fun-seeker and was constantly playing games on his mobile phone. He’d been impressed by the Eiffel Tower in Paris, but once he’d seen it he was back to playing games. On the second day of their stay in Scotland, their father set them a task. They were to explore the farm and its surroundings and make a list of every creature they saw; not the obvious ones you could see from the window, but the ones you had to search for. Yasin was really excited and couldn’t wait to get started. Hamza, on the other hand, was reluctant to move from the old fashioned chair next to the fire from where he could play on this
phone and watch the TV simultaneously. ‘Come on Hamza, get up off that chair’ said his father. ‘The fresh air will do you good’. When both boys had put on their coats and boots, their father checked his watch. ‘You have one hour to find as many different creatures as you can. Make a list and we’ll compare them when you get back’. Yasin literally ran from the farmhouse eager to get started. Hamza, still sulking, shuffled through the farmyard, his eyes still focused on his phone. Yasin’s journey took him across fields, over streams, through forests and inside barns before he eventually returned, full of excitement, back to the farmhouse. Hamza was less enthusiastic about his hour away from the TV. ‘I couldn’t find anything’ he complained. ‘What did you find Yasin?’ asked their father. ‘Well, first I saw a hare running through the long grass; then I saw a buzzard flying overhead; then I saw a barn owl in the barn behind the farm; then I saw a grey squirrel running up a tree; then a kestrel hovering over the hedge; then a baby rabbit running into a hole. It was awesome!’ Their parents were delighted with his enthusiasm and congratulated Yasin on his ability to be able to identity all of the different creatures. March 2017
‘You must’ve seen something Hamza’ said their mother. ‘Where did you go?’ Hamza hadn’t actually gone anywhere other than the garage where the owner of the farm kept a battered old car. He’d sat at the back of the garage on a bale of hay and played on his phone. ‘Everywhere’ he lied. ‘I didn’t see anything’. ‘Well you can’t have looked very hard’ said his father. ‘Think of all the interesting things you missed. Things you might never get the chance to see again. If you stopped looking at your phone for more than five minutes you might actually notice the things going on around you’. Hamza was actually really sorry he hadn’t taken the task more seriously. Yasin’s list sounded awesome and he was genuinely disappointed that his brother had got to see so many animals and birds and that he hadn’t seen any. ‘Can I go and have another look?’ he asked. ‘I promise to look more carefully this time’. ‘Go on then’ replied his father. ‘Maybe Yasin will go with you to help you identify what you see. I
think you should leave your phone behind his time too’. The two boys left the farmhouse for a second time and were soon lifting old tyres, peering into tree trunks and gazing up into branches. This time, Hamza’s list was full of fascinating sightings; a field mouse, a heron and a hedgehog to name just a few. He was astounded that Yasin was able to identify them so easily and realized what he had been missing by not paying attention. Yasin used his phone to take pictures of some of the animals and promised to print them for Hamza when they got home. ‘Well done boys’ said their mother when they returned. ‘What would you like to do for the rest of the day?’ Hamza surprised everyone by saying ‘Can I go and read upstairs? Yasin said I could borrow his wildlife book.’ ‘Of course you can’ replied their father with a smile. Hamza hadn’t even asked for his mobile phone.

SPARROWS Sparrows are a member of the Passeridae bird family.
They are grey and chestnut brown and male sparrows have a large untidy black ‘bib’.
There are various species of sparrow including the House Sparrow, Great Sparrow and Desert Sparrow. 22
They are small birds with short tails, rounded wings and powerful beaks.
March 2017
Most nest on buildings or in hedges and are a common sight in towns and cities.
They are birds of open habitats so are often seen in scrubland, deserts and grasslands, depending on the species. They usually feed on seeds and small insects.
Young birds beg for food from their parents by holding their bodies low and quivering their wings.
When built in hedges, their nests are usually domed shaped, made from straw and feathers. In towns and cities they simply line a hole in a building or a tree.
23
They can often be seen dust-bathing in summer time. They also bathe in water or melting snow. These are social activities, usually followed by preening.
They raise three nests of 3-5 eggs. Fledglings will fly out after 15 days. Sparrows have a special bone called a ‘preglossale’ which helps to stiffen their tongue when holding seeds.
March 2017
Their distinctive call consists of a persistent ‘chee-ip’.
They can fly up to 50 km per hour!
Historically, sparrows were kept as pets. The Romans in particular were fond of the small birds.
Believe it or not, 2 million frozen sparrows were seized by customs in Rotterdam in 1993!
The expected lifespan of a sparrow in the wild is 4-5 years.
Air pollution has had a major impact on the sparrow population as well as agricultural intensification.
Sadly, their numbers are declining and they are now on the ‘threatened bird’ list.

Ruth Handler Creator of ‘Barbie’ GREAT MINDS
Ruth Handler was born ‘Ruth Marianna Mosko’ on 4th November 1916 in Denver, Colorado. Her parents were Polish Jewish immigrants. Her father was a blacksmith and Ruth was the youngest of 10 children. 26
When Ruth was just 6 months old, her mother became very ill. As a result, Ruth was sent to live with her older sister, Sarah. She remained there until she was 19 years old.
In 1938, Ruth married her childhood sweetheart, Elliot Handler, and moved to Los Angeles.
The couple had two children; Barbara was born in 1941 and Kenneth, three years later. March 2017
27
Later, they joined forces with a designer named Harold ‘'Matt'’ Matson and added picture frames and doll house furniture to their list of products.
Together, Ruth and Elliot set up a business selling household items, gifts and furniture. They called it ‘Elzac’.
They set up a new company called ‘Mattel’ and began manufacturing dolls. Inspired by her own daughter who had been playing with paper dolls, Ruth designed a modern, three dimensional doll. She called it ‘Barbie’ after the nickname used for her daughter. March 2017
The doll was very different from the traditional baby dolls available at that time. Barbie was an adult doll, based on a similar version Ruth had seen in Germany.
Later, she invented a male doll (a boyfriend for Barbie) and named it ‘Ken’ after her son. Hundreds of outfits and accessories were available for both dolls. 28
In 1975, both Ruth and Elliot resigned from Mattel. Due to social and political instability in the U.S. the company suffered massive losses resulting in accusations of accounting irregularities.
Questions:
1. Ruth was the youngest of how many children? 2. What was the name of the first company she set up with her husband? 3. What was Mattel’s first big-seller? 4. What is Barbie’s boyfriend called? 5. What happened in 1997? 6. Her father was a locksmith – true or false? 7. Ruth became an advocate for the early detection of which disease? 8. When did Ruth resign from Mattel? 9. Where and when did Barbie become an instant sensation? March 2017
‘Barbie’ became an instant sensation at a Toy Fair in 1959. So popular was the doll, Mattel became a publicly owned company and made the Fortune’s list of the largest 500 U.S. industrial companies. Ruth Handler was the President of Mattel for several of its most successful years and Barbie remains one of its best selling products. However, the company’s first big-seller was a toy ukulele (the Uke-a-doodle). In 1970, Ruth was diagnosed with breast cancer. She went on to become an advocate for the early detection of the disease. In 1997, she was inducted into the Junior Achievement U.S. Business Hall of Fame. Ruth died on 27th April 2002 following surgery for colon cancer.

March 2017
Some grapes are seedless but others have small, hard seeds in the middle.
Grapes are a kind of berry and come in many colours. The most popular are green, red and black but they can also be pink, purple or yellow.
Grapes are in the top 10 of the world’s favourite fruits.
The leaves from a grape vine are large, green and partially lobed with toothed edges. They produce small, green flowers which are self-pollinating.
Vine leaves are edible and once steamed are often used to wrap rice and meats. They are a traditional part of Greek and Lebanese cooking.
31
The average person eats 3.6 kg of grapes every year. March 2017
Grapes are 80% water so they are very low in calories.
Grapes are rich in vitamins K and C but can act as a laxative if you eat too many!
Raisins are dried, sweet grapes. They dry naturally in sunlight. Raisins contain only 15% water.
32
Eating grapes increases levels of nitric acid in the blood which helps to prevent blood clots.
March 2017
In Spain, it is considered good luck to eat 12 grapes on New Year’s Eve and to make a wish twelve strokes before midnight.
They are usually consumed raw but can also be used for desserts, yogurts, jams or juice.
Grapes are also used to help cure asthma and indigestion as well as migraine and fatigue.
Grape seeds contain oils which are used in the cosmetic industry for skin-care products. 33

Last Day on Mars by Kevin Emerson
It is Earth year 2213—but, of course, there is no Earth anymore. Not since it was burned to a cinder by the sun, which has mysteriously begun the process of going supernova. The human race has fled to Mars, but this was only a temporary solution while we prepare for a second trip: a one-hundred-fifty-year journey to a distant star, our best guess at where we might find a new home. Liam Saunders-Chang is one of the last humans left on Mars. The son of two scientists who have been racing against time to create technology vital to humanity’s survival, Liam, along with his friend Phoebe, will be on the very last starliner to depart before Mars, like Earth before it, is destroyed.

SLEEP
Sleep brings you a wide range of physical and mental benefits. From birth onwards, your wellbeing depends on getting enough sleep for your age and activity levels. Following the tips below will help you fall asleep and stay asleep through the night. 36
Keep to a schedule Your body likes a regular schedule. Keep a regular sleep routine that allows you to wake up and go to bed at about the same time every day. Try to make sure you fall asleep and wakes up at the same time at least six days a week. Bedtimes and wake times should not vary by more than one hour from one day to the next, including on weekends.
Try to avoid sleeping in late on weekends. Sleeping in can make it harder for you to keep a regular schedule during the week. If you are well rested, you can change your schedule once in a while for special events and you can recover from the occasional late night much faster. March 2017
Avoid naps for children aged six and older A healthy child over six years of age should not need a nap during the day. Daytime naps for older children can affect the time the child will fall asleep at night. This results in a later bedtime and may lead to poorer quality nighttime sleep.
37
If you are under six years of age, have a nap if you need one. If you are six years old or older, try to limit daytime napping. Napping during the day, or early evening, will make it harder for you to fall asleep at bedtime.
March 2017
Create a relaxing routine Create a relaxing bedtime routine that you can follow each night. To start, be clear about when it is bedtime each night. For example, 8:00pm is ‘pyjama time’ and 8:30pm is lights out, and stick with those times. If you have difficulty falling asleep, you could allow extra time by starting your bedtime a little earlier. Try to take a bath or shower before bed to help you feel sleepier and more relaxed. Going to bed with a calm state of mind can reduce the risk and frequency of common sleeping problems such as nightmares, sleep walking and night terrors.
38
Include 20 to 30 minutes of quiet time in your bedtime routine. Good wind-down activities include reading, looking through a magazine, listening to music or writing in a journal. Dimming the lights half an hour before your bedtime will help you feel sleepy. Avoid stimulating activities such as playing videogames, using the computer, using a cell phone. Turn off all electronics at least one hour before bedtime.

Tips for a happier morning Offer your child some options for breakfast and prepare it with your child the night before, if possible. For example, you could cut up fresh fruit and cook oatmeal the night before so you or your child can quickly combine them the next morning. Help your child choose an outfit the night before. If your child is old enough to get dressed alone, place the outfit somewhere they can easily reach it in the morning. If your child is in school, help them pack their backpack before bed. Making sure everything is packed and ready to go the night before makes for a much less stressful morning. At night you have more time to look for something that may be missing or to sign an important school note. Let your child know what time you will wake them up in the morning. Calmly wake your child in the morning by giving them a hug, gently rubbing their arm or quietly saying their name. March 2017

VINCENT VAN GOGH Van-go or Van-goff? No matter how you say it, there's no denying Vincent Van Gogh was one of the greatest painters who ever lived. Learn about his turbulent — some say tragic — life and how it helped him create the moving masterpieces we love today.
42
Van Gogh was a Dutch painter. His work is sometimes described as “Post-Impressionism,” which means that his style of painting was similar to the “Impressionist” paintings that were being made only a few years before he started, but he added his own ideas that were different from them. His style was very personal, and though he was influenced by many kinds of artists, he made few lasting friendships with any of them and was almost always alone. Van Gogh lived a troubled life, and his paintings are some of the best records we have of it. Only one of his paintings was sold in his lifetime, and he was never able to financially support himself. His brother, Theo, often helped him, and the friends he would breifly have would help him as well. People who knew him would often describe him as a difficult person and very rarely happy. His paintings, however, use very vibrant colors and sometimes seem joyful. It was in his paintings that Van Gogh was able to express himself clearly. Most of his relationships in life fell apart quickly or turned out not to be what he had thought they were. There are many sad stories of Van Gogh attempting to get married only to be refued by each woman. The famous painter Gaugin, went to visit Van Gogh once, after Van Gogh had written to him constantly, requesting a visit. When Gaugin arrived Van Gogh was extremely excited. He had painted several pictures of sunflowers in anticipation of his guest. Gaugin respected Van Gogh’s talent, but the friendship only lasted a few months, the two had constant arguments and it ended when Van Gogh threatened him with a razor blade. No one had ever painted the way Van Gogh did: his colors were vibrant and the shapes were strange and
dream-like. His life was just as unpredictable and strange as his art, and it ended very early. However, since his death, his paintings have gone on to become some of the most famous in the world, and he has been a huge inspiration to artists ever since.

Try using colored pencils to draw Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” painting. What do you notice about the lines and shapes in the painting? What do you notice about the colors?

Earth Hour
44
Around the globe, millions of people, businesses, and landmarks set aside an hour to host events, switch off their lights, and make noise for climate change action. This year Earth Hour is at 8:30pm on 25 March 2017.
The event first started in Sydney in 2007, in an attempt to put climate change in the spotlight. It is now celebrated across all continents, and has helped bridge the gap between the grassroots and the corridors of power, taking climate action from conference rooms to living rooms.
Earth Hour is not about how much energy is saved during the hour, but about putting the spotlight on the issues facing the planet and inspiring people to live more sustainably. The idea is that the choices people make and the actions they take after the hour is up can help reduce the impacts of climate change on the planet, its wildlife and future generations. March 2017

World Water Day World Water Day, on 22 March every year, is about taking action on water issues. In 2017, the theme is wastewater and the campaign, ‘Why waste water?’, is about reducing and reusing wastewater. Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target 6.3 requires us by 2030 to “improve water quality by reducing pollution, eliminating dumping and minimizing release of hazardous chemicals and materials, halving the proportion of untreated wastewater and substantially increasing recycling and safe reuse globally.”
46
• Globally, over 80% of the wastewater generated by society flows back into the ecosystem without being treated or reused.
• 1.8 billion people use a source of
drinking water contaminated with faeces,
putting them at risk of contracting cholera, dysentery, typhoid and polio. Unsafe water, poor sanitation and hygiene cause around 842,000 deaths each year.
• 663 million people still lack improved drinking water sources. • By 2050, close to 70% of the world’s population will live in cities, compared to 50% today. Currently, most cities in developing countries do not have adequate infrastructure and resources to address wastewater management in an efficient and sustainable way.
•
The opportunities from exploiting wastewater as a resource are enormous.
Safely managed wastewater is an affordable and sustainable source of water, energy, nutrients and other recoverable materials.
• The costs of
wastewater management are greatly outweighed by the benefits
to human health, economic development and environmental sustainability – providing new business opportunities and creating more ‘green’ jobs. March 2017

World Kidney Day is a global awareness campaign aimed at raising awareness of the importance of our kidneys World Kidney Day comes back every year. All across the globe many hundred events take place from public screenings in Argentina to Zumba marathons in Malaysia. We do it all to create awareness. Awareness about preventive behaviors, awareness about risk factors, and awareness about how to live with a kidney disease. We do this because we want kidney health for all. 50
Why is World Kidney Day Important? Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a non-communicable disease that affects 1 in 10 people worldwide. While severity can vary, CKD is incurable and causes the patient to need lifelong care. As the incidence of kidney disease escalates, World Kidney Day plays a crucial role in educating the public, the medical community and governments and encouraging prevention and early detection of kidney disease.
Objectives Raise awareness about our “amazing kidneys”. • Encourage screening of all patients with diabetes and hypertension for CKD. • Encourage preventive behaviours. • Educate all medical professionals about their key role in detecting and reducing the risk of CKD, particularly in high risk populations. • Stress the important role of local and national health authorities in controlling the CKD epidemic. • Encourage transplantation as a best-outcome option for kidney failure, and the act of organ donation as a life-saving initiative.

Kidney Disease & Obesity Obesity is defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that may impair health. In 2014, worldwide over 600 million adults were obese. Obesity is a potent risk factor for the development of kidney disease. Obesity increases the risk of developing major risk factors of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), like diabetes and hypertension, and it has a direct impact on the development of CKD and end stage renal disease (ESRD).The good news is that obesity, as well as CKD, is largely preventable. This year World Kidney Day promotes education about the harmful consequences of obesity and its association with kidney disease, advocating healthy lifestyle and health policy measures that make preventive behaviours an affordable option.

10 Commandments for Children Ages Birth to 12 Years Sleep is one of the most important contributors to your child’s physical and mental health. Good sleep habits, sleep hygiene, or “sleep health” are alternative terms often used to describe sleep promoting practices. The explanation as to why healthy sleep practices promote sleep is likely to be, at least in part, that they work by improving the regulation of sleep, either by reinforcing the body’s natural circadian rhythms (ie, timing of light and darkness), or by increasing the drive to sleep. Other sleep practices help us to associate certain activities (like a bedtime routine) and environments (ie, the bedroom) with sleep. Healthy sleep behaviors also promote sleep by reducing factors in the environment which are stimulating (like caffeine) and increasing relaxation, making it easier to fall and stay asleep. Finally, good sleep practices include providing an adequate opportunity for sleep based on age and individual sleep needs and an environment that is conducive to good sleep quality and safety.
1. Make sure your child gets enough sleep by setting an age-appropriate bedtime (preferably before 9:00 pm or 21:00 hours) and waketime.
2. Keep a consistent bedtime and waketime on weekdays and weekends. 3. Establish a consistent bedtime routine and recommend wearing comfortable clothes in bed, including strong absorbing diapers for infants.
4. Encourage your child to fall asleep independently. 5. Avoid bright lights at bedtime and during the night and increase light exposure in the morning.
6. Keep all electronics, including televisions, computers, and cell phones, out of the bedroom and limit use of electronics before bedtime.
7. Maintain a regular daily schedule, including consistent mealtimes. 8. Have an age-appropriate nap schedule. 9. Ensure plenty of exercise and time spent outdoors during the day. 10. Eliminate foods and beverages containing caffeine, including many sodas, coffee, and tea. March 2017
