Ealing Balti House - a Delightful Find Near Home

Advantages: Friendly efficient service, food adjusted to customers taste when necessary
Disadvantages: Not as busy as it could be

...Ealing Balti House is a delightful little Indian restaurant located in West Ealing which has been in operation since 1996. West Ealing is in West London and it?s not exactly one of the nicer parts of Ealing which is a shame as this restaurant gets easily overlooked when people think about dining in the Ealing area. My husband and I found this restaurant quite by chance a few years ago as it?s walking distance from our home. We were somewhat surprised to notice it as we thought we?d tried out all of the Indian restaurants in the Ealing area over the years. Unfortunately it?s not in the best location in Ealing, it?s on the main road of the West Ealing shopping area but it?s right at the end so it?s easily missed as it?s opposite the local Kwik Fit and parking is only available on the single yellow lines outside the restaurant or across...

Review of Ealing Balti House

Home a place for learning

Advantages: Learning a new trade and doing it in your own time
Disadvantages: Tutors can take forever to mark your work

...My Review is about the Home Learning College. Who Are They? Most of us are all aware of whom ICS are due to their television advertisements and The Home Learning College is very similar in every way. The Home Learning College is a simple way for people to try and gain a qualification in an area they either feel they want to learn more from or perhaps try again due to failure at school or either a workplace. They offer a wide range of studies for people to take part in and are always there for you if you need any assistance at all. My Experience When I was sick from work with depression I found myself at a lose end and plus I was just not going anywhere in terms of career. At school I did psychology but I was someone who had time off from the A Levels and I found myself worried by a poor result. I achieved...

Review of Home Learning College

learning is fun!

Advantages: fun, interactive, educational
Disadvantages: a little rough

...Hey! MrB here and again I am writing a review about one of Baby B's Christmas presents! This is yet another of her presents which she has had lots of fun playing with! What is it? Quite simply it's a wooden puzzle. It has two wooden boards with shapes cut out of it. These shapes are painted in bright colour and have little plastic pegs in them for your baby to pull out and then try to work out how to put them back in. On each board are six shapes- these include letters of the alphabet or numbers and a corrosponding picture. So the ABC board has a picture of an Ant, a Bee and a Caterpillar. These are all brightly painted which attracts your baby to them. What do you do with them? Your baby plays with them by working out how to get them out of the board by using the little pegs. They can then learn about how...

Review of Early Learning Centre ABC & 123 Puzzle

Learning Puppy

Advantages: Learns and teaches, brightly coloured, sounds and noises
Disadvantages: none

...** INTRODUCTION** I bought the learning puppy for Ethan for Christmas, he loves it. He smiles when you give it him, and gets excited when the sounds come on. He triggers the sounds off by accident as he doesn't really understand how to do it yet, but he is getting there slowly. ** ABOUT THE LEARNING PUPPY ** The puppy was something I was looking for Ethan, its fun, entertaining; it will teach and learn Ethan when he is older. The puppy is colourful, parts of the body is labelled to help with the learning process. Each part of the body makes a sound, plays learning games, and plays learning songs. Turning the puppy on is easy, there is a Orange patch on his left foot with the turn off, ABC, and the music trigger. Although when turning the puppy off any kind of interaction with the puppy will trigger it off again, and can be...

Review of Fisher Price Laugh & Learn: Learning Puppy

Higher Learning Film Review

Advantages: Characters, Issues
Disadvantages: A little over-ambitious in places

...John Singleton?s Higher Learning deserves some serious respect for exploring a number of sensitive issues that many University students encounter at some point in their lifetime-- some of which include institutional racism, rape, and the individual desire to be accepted. While some of the characters lack emotional complexity and the story at times may feel a little "preachy", the film is still a very enjoyable and thought-provocative experience -- one that'll linger with you for quite some time afterwards. Primarily, it's a film concerned with identity, with the numerous individual struggles interlinked. Malik Williams (Omar Epps, In Too Deep) is the campus track star convinced that everyone is against him because of his skin colour ("It's no longer about what a person says but what they think," he says. "So in my mind, you've been...

Review of Higher Learning (DVD)

Get into the Groove with Learn and Groove

Advantages: Keeps baby very entertained and safe
Disadvantages: Is a bit cumbersome and awkward to 'flatpack'

...With the rush of Christmas fast approaching we were looking around for ways to spoil our daughter on her first Christmas and found the LeapFrog Learn and Groove DJ Activity station - ideal as both her parents are DJs. It is a lovely activity station with 5 basic toy elements - record player, number piano, microphone, mirror ball and juke box which I will explain individually shortly. Alex hates lying down now and wants to be upright all the time - a bit of a pain when you are trying to do other things such as the chore that is housework - and this is where the Learn and Groove come into its own. She is a small baby for her age so finding things that will help her sit/stand securely are few and far between but this station does give her a good amount of support without letting her slump forwards or backwards or slide down into...

Review of LeapFrog Learn & Groove Activity Station

Learn and learn their way

Advantages: Mostly
Disadvantages: The price

...It?s widely accepted that children have their own world. They have their own dreams, logics and interests, different ways of doing things and getting things done as well. There is a big difference in their conception of the world compared to the adults. Childhood is a crucial phase of life. This is the time when simple actions leave a life long impact on their future. It is highly impractical to impose your opinion on children. During this developmental period learning plays an important role. During the period of childhood they indulge in activities which may seem insane to adults. It?s the natural instinct of a child to enjoy themselves by indulging in various sorts of games and pranks. The best way to impart basic education to them is to do it their way, so that it never becomes a burden for the children, its best for them to learn...

Review of LeapFrog Learn & Groove Animal Sounds Guitar

Learn and Groove

Advantages: value for money, many songs to learn, sparkly lights, many activities.
Disadvantages: a little bulky

...**INTRODUCTION** I was looking around for presents to buy Ethan for Christmas, I wanted something that would entertain him, keep him occupied, and something that would help teach him new things. I came across many things and the learning table looked just the thing, so I bought it. ** ABOUT THE TABLE** The table can be used as floor play or as a table, at the moment the table is used for floor play for Ethan as he cannot stand yet. The table as many activities and sounds for your child to learn and play. The table is also multi-language as you can switch it over to French, I guess this is a good thing if you are French or wanting your child to learn it. There are a lot of things to push, slide, spin, pull, open and close which will learn your child also when doing these things it will teach your child more things like sounds...
