Marjorie Taylor Greene: "That's what we did by fighting so hard against the most powerful people in the world, even the president, in order to make this vote happen. I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for 6 years for. I gave him my loyalty for free. I've never owed him anything. Let me tell you what a traitor is -- a traitor is an American that serves foreign countries."

TRUMP: Obamacare is terrible; it's bad healthcare.
O'DONNELL: But Mr. President, with all due respect, you've been talking about fixing the healthcare insurance plan since 2015.
TRUMP: Sure. And you can't do it because of the Democrats.
O'DONNELL: Since 2015, you've said you'd fix it.
TRUMP: We can make it much less expensive for people and give them much better healthcare.
O'DONNELL: But where's that plan? Where's that plan?

As your baby grows, they will interact with the same toys in different ways.
If you’re a parent you’ve probably noticed that most toys are labeled with suggested ages. These recommendations are particularly important in terms of safety. Toys with small pieces can be choking hazards for young children, for example.
But these suggestions can also relate to the developmental stage at which your child will be best prepared to use the toy “as intended.”
And here I always advise a flexible mindset.
Take stacking rings for example. They’re a great infant-toddler toy in that children can enjoy in different ways at different ages/stages.
In their idealized use, the idea is that toddlers will discriminate by size, stacking the rings in order from largest to smallest.
That’s a pretty sophisticated skill… and not where the toy’s youngest users are likely to begin.
But that doesn’t necessarily mean the toy should be withheld for later.
At the earliest stages, your baby may simply grasp the rings and explore them with their hands and mouths - which is a perfectly appropriate starting point.
This sweet little guy, shared to IG by aren.sanjari - is in between these two extremes.
With the help of his parents, he’s practicing his hand-eye coordination, stacking the rings in the order presented by his adult partner. (And working on his clapping to boot!)
He’s not quite ready to sort the by size, but that doesn’t make the activity any less meaningful. It’s simply a matter of matching the task at hand to his developmental readiness.
As you shop for toys, consider your choices carefully… assessing first for safety and then for how and whether they may lend themselves to different and increasingly sophisticated uses as your child grows. When you can identify multiple uses, you’ve generally found a winner!
The trick is to think like Goldilocks - looking for toys that are neither far too simple for your child, nor far too sophisticated - but just right (allowing their meaningful use both now and for the foreseeable future).
What types of toys have you found that meet these criteria?
