Coutdown Jar for Military Deployment

My kids made a countdown jar that will help them count the days until their day returns from Deployment with The Kentucky National Guard. They put a Starburst candy in a jar for everyday he will be gone. Each day one of the kids will remove a Starburst and before you know it dad will be home.

We also have a countdown jar until the last day of school. I am all about helping you Save Money And Stay Home with your kids. This is a great low price way to make lemonade out of lemons.

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

Did you know?

One in every 330 Americans develops cancer before the age of twenty.

On the average, 36 children and adolescents are diagnosed with cancer everyday in the United States.

On the average, one in every four elementary schools has a child with cancer. The average high school has two students who are current or former cancer patients.

Cancer is the leading cause of death by disease in children under the age of 15 in the United States.

Childhood cancers affect more potential patient-years of life than any other cancer except breast and lung cancer.

The causes of most childhood cancers are unknown. At present, childhood cancer cannot be prevented.

Childhood cancer occurs regularly, randomly and spares no ethnic group, socioeconomic class, or geographic region. In the United States, the incidence of cancer among adolescents and young adults is increasing at a greater rate than any other age group, except those over 65 years.

Despite these facts, childhood cancer research is vastly and consistently underfunded.
