What are some great scar removing creams?
My skin is pretty sensitive. If I get a scratch, it takes some time to heal and a scar is always left behind (especially on my legs). It is summer time, and naturally I would like to wear shorts, but I am bothered by these scars.
For example: mosquito bites. I do my very, very best not to scratch them. I put on anti-itch cream all the time, and for some reason mosquitoes love to attack me. By the time that they heal, the bite has left a horrible scar.
Another example: falls. I slipped and fell on the wood floor in my house approximately a month ago. I had a pretty nasty and multi-colored bruise (I bruise pretty easily so no doubt was I going to have a souvenier of my fall on my knee) and I also skinned a little part of my knee. It has mostly healed itself by now, but it has left a scar.
If I scratch just a little part, I will instantly be scarred. So is there a very good scar removing cream that any of you know of? I’m desperate to fix this!
Hi, I have the same exact problem! I have tons of scars (on my legs) from shaving, razor burns, and mostly mosquitoes. If I get bit by one, I try to stop scratching it, but I instantly scar. Its weird because my twin sister has flawless legs, while I have cuts/scars on them. Sometimes I even avoid wearing shorts. My mom’s doctor gave her this scar removing cream after she got this mark removed on her face. Its completely removed now. I don’t know if you need a prescription for this, but it’s called “Kelo-cote”. It says the ingredients are “Polysiloxanes, Silicon Dioxide” I’m pretty sure you can buy it without a prescription, but make sure just in case. *It also says its an advanced formula scar gel*
Hope your scars get better!

Fun Sand and Water Table Activity – Colored Pasta Play
The preschool sand and water table is truly an innovative sensory learning center that can be filled with many different materials for children to explore. Broadly, a sand and water table creates hands on play, whereby preschool children play with objects at the table while naturally increasing sensory development, motor skill development and coordination.
Colored Pasta Activity
In reality, many items can be put into the sand and water table to keep it an interesting, dynamic place for children to play. Try filling the sand and water table with bags of dry, multi-colored, multi-shaped pasta for a fun variation on the sand and water table theme.
Sorting by Color
Sorting is a perfect activity for preschool children. A table full of pretty colored pasta will draw them in, begging to be sorted into matching colors. Provide small cups for them to put pasta of the same color in, and then ask them to count how many they found of each color.
Sorting by Shape
The pasta sorting can be taken to the next level if you provide pasta of different shapes. Once the children sort the pasta by colors into the cups provided, they can further sort the pasta by different shapes. Then, ask them to count how many round, red pasta shapes, then how many blue round shapes. Providing a wide variety of colors and shapes allows for hours or even days of fun with sorting activities.
Using the Senses
Invite the children to close their eyes while they dig their hands into the pasta. Have them pick up individual pieces and feel the edges with their fingers. Ask them to notice if the pasta is pointy or soft, smooth or rough. Ask them if they can tell what shape the pasta is with their eyes closed, or if they can guess the color of the pasta they’re holding. They can also play with the sounds pasta makes when it is poured from a cup held above the table. Ask them if the sound is similar to other sounds they know.
Pasta Pros and Cons
One advantage of using multi-colored and multi-shaped pasta for sand and water table exploration is that it is dry and easy to clean up. If it gets wet, it is less likely than rice to grow harmful bacteria. However, its small shape does make it a possible choking hazard, so it may not be suitable for younger preschool children who are still putting everything in their mouths. The upside is that it is edible, should a student decide to experiment with their sense of taste.
Changing up the contents of the sand and water table helps keep this important preschool fixture fresh and inviting. Sand and water activities can be used for free play, as well as for asking questions about the materials and encouraging the children to use all of their senses while playing.
