Coffee Filter Easter Egg!
· Coffee Filter
· Food Coloring
· Drinking Straw
Instructions: Cut the coffee filter into an oval, egg shape. Measure out about 1/4 cut of water into a glass dish or cup. Add a few drops of food coloring at a time to the water until you get the desired color. Repeat this for however many different colors you want. Once your colors are mixed you can use the straw to add colors to your egg shape.
Dip a straw into the desired color. Cover the end of your straw with your finger so the colored water stays in it. Move the straw to your filter and hold it over the area you want colored. Remove your finger from the end of the straw and the colored water will run onto the egg!
Repeat this for as many colors as you want to use. For more variety use both a large drinking straw and a small straw made for stirring drinks.
Once you are done coloring your egg, set it aside to dry and then display it with pride.

Children's Activity Pyramid
Five Tips from Gwenn Schurgin O’Keeffe, MD, FAAP
Keeping Kids Moving!
From the tip to the base, here is the “Children’s Activity Pyramid”:
- Reduce time spent with TV and video/computer games; don’t sit for 30 minutes or more at a time
- Two to three times a week, engage in playtime and fun activities like dancing, martial arts, swimming, and tumbling
- Three to five times a week, engage in real aerobic activities, from biking to soccer to old-fashioned games like tag and hide-and-seek (20 minutes or more is the goal for these activities.)
- Everyday, as much as possible, play outside, use the stairs, help around the house and in the yard, pick up toys, walk, etc.
- Have fun!

Better Inc.
"It starts with one.
One prayer. One act of selflessness. One commitment to act. One team with unwavering resolve.
Better Inc. is an organization established to grow God's Kingdom and provide love, hope and spiritual renewal. We serve the needs of refugees, children and the downtrodden through: charitable giving, micro-enterprise, youth based programs and infrastructure development.
Unlike standard non-profits or mission based organizations, Better Inc. uses a combination of stateside and ground teams to amplify the impact of resources. This means that more money goes to serve the need not the administration."

Being Better for You
A lot happens behind the scenes here at PureFUN! so we wanted to take a minute to share a few
initiatives we have in place. From the warehouse to sales team, our objective is to serve you!
Driver training – We have implemented a driver training program that will empower
the team to problem solve on-site! By the way, check out the new uniforms!
Warehouse – Pick rates are up and errors are down! The new scanner system we
implemented in July has really paid off.
Technology – We constantly evaluate technology to choose the best solutions to
support you. From ACT! To MAS2000, we use state of the art programs!
PureFUN! Team is leaving for Cairo!
Todd, Carol, Mo, Jaceson, Eric, Leo and Monica
are preparing for their trip to Egypt in October.
The purpose of their trip is to start a computer
learning center for the kids, help widows with
small business ideas to better support their
families and to love on the kids and the staff.

Phone Tips
- Put a smile on your face first. It will enhance your vocal quality and make you sound more pleasant and relaxed
- Listen attentively to the person you are speaking with. Multi tasking is the enemy of effective listening
- Let other people talk! Make sure the caller has completely finished talking before responding.
- Use open ended questions to get people to speak more freely. It typically makes people feel more comfortably, especially if they are asked to make a decision.
- Match the speed of your speaking voice with theirs.
- Phrasing your words positively, rather than negatively or neutrally, will help you get better results more easily.
