Every Wed. from 6-7pm at My Gym
It’s a GREAT class. ALL my boys LOVE it! The program combines cardiovascular conditioning, strength & endurance, and stability exercises so children of all abilities will benefit from the class! Just like a cardio workout for adults, this class aims to keep kids moving so they keep their heart rate up. Inspired by circuit training, fun activities like freestyle dancing, tumbling, trampolines, jumping, and hula hoops are combined into a complete workout that improves endurance & gross motor skills. 1st class is FREE – http://www.mygym.com/woodlandhills/schedules.

Stylish butter dish that allows people to easily & conveniently enjoy soft butter anytime
What a great idea! It’s a scientific fact that butter does not require refrigeration and approximately 1 in 4 Americans keep their butter on the counter all the time. These folks know that butter at room temperature is not only easier to spread, it tastes better too. Yet surprisingly, ½ of America has no idea that butter kept unrefrigerated is perfectly safe to consume. Butterie’s unique flip-top design keeps your butter protected while keeping your countertops clean. The small, compact shape takes up very little counter space, and yet it holds a wide variety of butter stick sizes. It’s made with a high quality, BPA-free plastic and includes easy-grip handles and a non-slip base.

Your Jr. Chef can bake hard-boiled eggs
Huh? Making the perfect hard-cooked egg as easy as putting 1 raw egg in each well of any size muffin pan (or directly on a thoroughly moist kitchen towel), baking 30 min at 320˚, putting eggs into an ice water-filled bowl to cool, peeling (it’ll be easy!), returning to ice bath to fully chill, then using or refrigerating. Couldn’t be easier. This is a good technique for making egg salad for a group. Parental supervision.
