TEACHER: That's how kids learn

Hats off and high fives to Melissa Giles, PE teacher at Skyway Elementary! Her creative use of pumpkins and kitchen scraps looked to be a great success with her students.

Will kids get indoor fun? I hope elementary kids don’t have to suffer.

ADVERTISING: Advertorial — How to naturally treat eczema and psoriasis

Eczema, or atopic dermatitis, is a red, itchy rash that affects up to 30 million Americans, many of whom are children. Ranging in severity from mild, slightly itchy dry patches in small, isolated areas, to angry, inflamed rashes covering large portions of the body, eczema can make a person anywhere from annoyed to miserable. People with eczema also frequently suffer from asthma and allergies, and although conventional medicine considers eczema to have “no known cause,” there is growing evidence that it is an autoimmune condition.
