			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looking out the window this morning, I saw a goldfinch fly by pines, beeches and oaks and I thought, ‘Am I a tree or a bird?’ A tree has deep roots, stands tall and observes. A bird flits around seeing new things. At first I thought I was a bird. Big picture is my style. Then I realized I had more tree in me. My point is: thinking of yourself in new and fun ways may make it easier to project those desirable qualities to others.</p>
<p>I looked online for a quiz: ‘what kind of animal am I’ but they had pop-up ads, were too complicated or asked for personal information. Think about what kind of animal your personality represents. I used to think of myself as a cheetah. Now I think I’m more like an owl. Understanding yourself, how you relate to others and how you adapt to the herd, pod, flock or murder (crows) may be a measure of your hire-ability (I think I just made that up!)</p>
<p>Here’s a fun game to play with your family in the car. Ask each person what kind of animal they think they are and why. The answers may surprise you.</p>
<p>Fun and Interesting Free/Low Cost Things to Do<br />
Traveling with Kids &#8211; Ideas<br />
1.	Game for two players &#8211; Have each child guess if there are more license plates that end in an odd number or an even number.  (plates that end in a letter don’t count)<br />
2.	Start this game out by saying, &#8220;I&#8217;m going on a trip and I&#8217;m bringing&#8230;&#8221; .  The first player should name an item that starts with the letter &#8220;A.&#8221;  The next player names something that starts with the letter &#8220;B&#8221;, and so on.<br />
