Question–: Can anyone explain to me the importance of bacon in the war of 1812?
Im helping my son with a project on the war of 1812. As a group they had to come up with a few important foods and explain why. They all came up with there own ideas ex. hardtack…etc. 1 child said bacon was of importance and he read somewhere that rich soldiers were given bacon but not the poor…I have no idea where he came up with this info because we cant find it anywhere. Help please?

Cured bacon is a preserved meat. It can be transported and consumed without refrigeration like corned beef and jerky. The fat or grease from frying bacon can also be used to make biscuits. So bacon actually had a high value in a war since an army tends to travel as far as that army has food. You have heard the expression “an army travels on it’s stomach.” Well, bacon gave an army a lot of marching time.
The other advantage of bacon was calories and protein. You do not need to eat a lot of bacon to get enough calories to get you through the day because of the high fat content. Bacon usually has enough protein to get a person through the day.
It also does not hurt that United States was a large pork producer. The US is still a very large pork producer to this day.

Heyyy there!
Ok, it wasn’t easy, but I think I found it for ya! In the war of 1812 the mens nutrition was not well… they had to go with a different kind of ration to keep them strong enough to win… mostly, it was the guys in the trenches that were unhealthy… so they changed their rations so that they could get stronger and then we could WIN… and so Bacon was added along with lard, onions, canned tomatos, and margerine… (i can only assume that they were weak from weightloss)… anyways.. here’s the link I found it on… it talks of a few different wars, but scroll down a bit and you’ll find that part..about the war of 1812… good luck, I hope it helped!

Question–: my two year old will not let me read to her!?
I understand the importance of reading to your children. I enjoy reading for pleasure myself. But every night when I try to read to my daughter araya, She wails and thrashes untill she gets ahold of the book, then she flips through it for a moment and tosses it aside. Ive tried giving her a book to play with while I read, no dice, she wants mine. she wont even let my read to my other 1 year old daughter. she seems developmentally sound otherwise, but I was really looking forward to reading to my girls and Im nearly to the point where I want to hold her down and read to her by choice. I want to mention it to our doctor but my girlfriend thinks its no big deal, she couldnt be autistic could she? how can I tell?

My son is the same way so I bought a set of books with CDs with them and play them for him at bedtime and he will sit and look at the book.

She’s TWO!!!!! My two year old can’t sit through me reading him a book either. Just keep trying and be patient. Read to your 1 year old when the older is not around.
Answer by LINZI
Just let her hold the book and try get her to turn the pages, don’t “read” the book she’s too young to be interested, just sort of talk about what the characters are doind in the pics, ask her things like, eg. oh look, what’s this little girl doing here, she will probably be more interested that way. I wouldn’t worry, it’s normal.
Answer by Hayley
your daughters not autistic just making a fuss as 2 year olds do i cant give you much advice maybe stop reading to her for a couple of days and try again also let her see you reading. one of her books would be good let her see you take the book and tell her your going to go and read a book then in a couple of days try reading to her again monkey see monkey do! if that doesnt work then just keep trying your daughter doesnt hate books she just finds it amusing distacting you from reading to her because she likes the reaction she gets.
Answer by Jeanine B
Be patient it will happen… Tell her it’s her turn to pick out the book and let her “read” it to you.. I use to do this with my daughter and after a while say, okay.. it’s my turn.. See if this will work..
Answer by simplelilcowgirl
We have story time before bed everynight with my 3 year old and 13 month old. We started when the oldest was just a baby. Now we read books on the bed with the oldest, but we let them play with toys on the floor (my y son is addicted to dinosaurs so when we read dino books he pplays with the little dinos) My oldest will sit and let me read all night but the 13 month old is a busy girl and she plays while I read but she still gets “US” time out of it. Its ok if your not cuddled up yet just as long as your spending the time with them, as they get older they will want to fallow the story and pictures but for now, just the concept of story is what they need!! Good luck and stick with it, the more you read the more it benifits them!

Well let me see….she’s 2…don’t you realize that a 2 yr. old might as well have an IV pumping caffine straight into their system 24 hours a day…they don’t stop…if you want to read to her just do it while she’s playing with her toys…sit there and read aloud but don’t try to make her sit next to you…she’ll hear you reading and may even get interested in what you’re doing and go sit by you on her own…I do that with my kids…works pretty well
Answer by samira
nothing to worry about. Get her a few sturdy board books or the squishy baby ones (almost a vinyl material) and she can toss them around or whatever. Don’t allow her to take your book your reading.
she will want you to read to her when she is older,
Answer by Sandrine C

My daughter loves reading, and reads to me sometimes the books she knows well. Try taking her to a bookshop and letting her choose a couple of books or perhaps the library which will cost less. Have a quiet period with both your daughters and let her do what she likes while you read to your other daughter and if you make it fun and intresting she might want to join in.

2yr olds dont want a story. They want to point and identify..A story takes a longer attention span than they have at 2 yrs. Get a well illustrated book. Make up little stories as you see the charactors doing…like “oh, Its a pig..that funny pig likes to be in the mud..Do you?” ..Just wing it at first.
My son is the same way. He will throw a fit and yell no if I try to read to him. He will on rare occasions look at a book by himself, but if I try to look at it with him he has a meltdown. He has recently been diagnosed as “sensory”. Basically, he does not like certain toys with music or sounds, if you lift him up too high he flips out, he does not like to have his hands dirty and he will not chew certain foods like gummy bears because of the texture. My son also happens to be language delayed, so he has an early intervention teacher who diagnosed this in him. Your daughter may be a little sensory too. Try to notice if she has any other “quirks”. My sons therapists say just to keep trying. They suggest going to the library and getting a book with just pictures to see if he will just point out things in the pictures, i.e. “Can you find the kitty, car, baby, bear,” etc. They also said to be patient and try doing just one page. If you can do that without a fight then go to two pages. Then three and so on. I know how frustrating it is, but don’t push it until there is a meltdown. I wish you all the luck!
Reading a long (or even short) book is nearly impossible with most 2 year olds. Don’t force it or make it seem like a chore. She will let you know when she’s ready for you to read to her. For now, stick to simple books with one word on a page and let her hold the book and tell you what the item is. I think what’s most important is talking to a child of that age. They are developing speech patterns and learning words. You could try story telling without a book, my 3 year old won’t sit for a book that often but he loves finishing my sentences when I tell him “Three Little Pigs” (or Goldielocks etc)….he knows the whole story and loves to repeat it with me. Don’t worry, you’ll have plenty of time to read many, many books as she gets older! Good luck
