2011: What are your goals/plans for the year ahead?

best kids toys of 2011 image

ThatWoman

Do you have plans to travel? To meet new people? Maybe your plan is to apply yourself more to your studies or give up an addiction.
Whatever your intentions are for 2011, I'd love to hear them!

Answer
This New Year, I resolve to be the type of person that Mema (my grandma who died in May) would want me to be. Even though she can’t give me a pat on the back or say, “Good job, Heather!” I still want to make her proud. And I think that doing this is even more special because of the fact that she’s gone.
I resolve to get involved with the Surfrider Foundation by cleaning up the beaches, attending meetings, and raising awareness-Mema always loved the beach.
I resolve to stop procrastinating. How would Mema have ever gotten anything done-like putting together shoeboxes full of toys for kids overseas- by procrastinating? I have been a procrastinator for many years, and I hope to change that in 2011.
I resolve to try my hardest in whatever I do. That includes school, tennis, surfing, etc. Mema would want to see me do well in everything I do.
No matter what I do this year, no matter what happens, no matter what gets in my way, I just want the end result to be that Mema is proud of me. And I know she will be.

For my product design coursework we are designing a new childerens toy and i need to research ergonomics & anthropometrics for kids what does it mean? Please?

Thanks - 10 points for best answer!!

Answer
ergonomic would be its safety and comfort to the human body and its usability. For children, something like size would need to be considered as you won't want the parts to be swallowed. Here is some info on it:
