Hayu Maca
There are many clubs in Indonesia depending on interests, goals or the type of people you want to meet. Many of the clubs are meant to bring benefits to its members, not excluding this one on the list. This is particularly one of the most unique clubs called the โHayu Macaโ, a club where children are encouraged to read from an early age.
The activities in the weekends differ from storytelling session, coloring session, arts & crafts with quality books for the children to read. Each week, a member or volunteer will read out childrenโs stories; the arts & crafts session is particularly enjoyable for children as they could color, make poems and kirigami. Only held every Sunday each week, Hayu Maca is a fun club for children to spend their time. We guarantee they will have a fun and educative time while being in the club!

Baby Blues Syndrome: Symptoms and Treatments
The birth of a child is one of the most anticipated timing in anyoneโs life. The little bundle of joy brings happiness and hope to the parents. Yet children take a whole livesโ dedication with trials and tribunals in the middle.
It may even start from the moment the baby is born, where a mother can experience the baby blues. Baby blues can be characterized by feelings of sadness (the โbluesโ) when the baby is born. Stress, fatigue and exhaustion could push to mother to feel unloved, disoriented and maybe even a little jealous. Mothers will generally cry without a clear reason, easily angered, tires easily, gets offended, difficulty in rest and has no self confidence.
That is not to say that the symptoms cannot be cured. It can simply be done by giving more attention to the mother. Giving her love, attention and expressing gratitude can go a long way to easing the mental pain that they are going through. More help is even more appreciated for a tired mother-give her some me time and she will feel better afterwards.
The baby needs help and care, but a mother also needs to take care of herself to manage her responsibilities more.
