Katara Simmons/News-Sun A fisherman finds a dry spot to stand Thursday morning near the bridge over Lake Jackson in Sebring. The wet summer raised the water level under the bridge high enough that boats can go between Lake Jackson and Little Lake Jackson, but residents are worried about what will happen when the water goes back down and the canal becomes too shallow to navigate once again. Lake Jackson residents send appeal to Gov. Scott

Continued from A1 lakes. Since the drop in water levels over the past several years, the channel has been unnavigable with approximately only a foot of water in the area. Sand bars created by the 2004 hurri- canes also pose a huge prob- lem for boats in the area. This year’s exceptionally wet season has improved things for the boaters want- ing to go under the bridge, but does not provide a per- manent solution to the issue. “Right now there’s not a problem.

How imaginative play benefits your child

Family Features etween the everyday obligations of school, sports and other extra-curricular activities, many children equate play- Btime with sitting in front of the television, com- puter or other electronic device. This dependence on electronic devices can be linked to a list of issues, including childhood obesity, as well as reduced cognitive and mus- cle development. Children who instead engage in imaginative or pretend play are offered a stress-free environment where their dreams have no boundary. This type of activity just comes naturally for kids because it's just plain fun. Create a pretend play paradise

A make-believe-friendly setting begins with the parents. Here are a few ideas to create an environment that fosters creative, imaginative play for your little ones: ࡗ Focus on fun: A truly free setting for imaginative play is one without structure or rules. Let your child know there are no expecta- tions or wrong outcomes while they are pre- tending. There may be moments where you have to intervene, but the atmosphere should be relaxed and free from rules. ࡗ Give toys that encourage pretend play: Make sure your kids have toys that allow them to express themselves. The Calico Critters toy line is the ideal choice for parents seeking time- less, classic toys that delight children and pro- mote wholesome values through pretend play.

So, begin the reading ritual as early as you can. You will find your child will love and look forward to sharing this healthy activity with you. ࡗ Play along: Young children mimic every- thing their parents do, so be a model of imagi- native play for them.
