WHAT:   The 5th of May commemorates Mexico’s victory at the Battle of Puebla in 1862, and it is thus a celebration of Mexican culture in Puebla, Mexico, and around the world! Enjoy Cinco de Mayo at the Children’s Museum with special performances, crafts, and more.

Celebration of Sound: Most celebrations involve music, and Cinco de Mayo certainly does! Dance on over to Science Station and explore sound waves with tuning forks, kazoos, rain sticks, and other instruments.
Cinco de Mayo Crafts: Make taco magnets, chili pepper decorations, and your very own sombrero at Junktion.

Diet Deprivation
I've had 3 people in the last week tell me that when they struggle following a diet because they feel deprived.
 
For instance, if they know they shouldn't eat candy bars, a strict diet will tell them they can never have a candy bar again. That one sensation alone is enough to drive people to eventually overeating that one food and completely messing up their diet.
 
If you are struggling with your diet, I'd like to give you a little insight in to why it happens and how I overcame my struggle with it years ago. Yes, I struggled with the same thing years ago too.
 
 
I would say that by changing my approach to my diet over the years, I was able to be successful.
 
Any one technique gets old after a while and eventually leads to burnout. In fact, I think if I had stuck with my first technique, you wouldn't be reading advice from me at all right now because I would still be struggling. And also believe if I had started with my final technique first, I would still be struggling. The secret:
 

I used 3 techniques.
