I often talk about the adoption of our children. It is not that I am telling it to the four winds but I imagine that, like everything that we are passionate about or live as a great joy, it ends up emerging in one way or another. One of the last times, it came out on the occasion of the names we put to our children, I commented that mine already came with a name and we did not change them.

A recent study in the United Kingdom concludes that children who have taken breast milk for at least four months may behave better when they are older than those who drink artificial milk. For the study, carried out by researchers from the Universities of Oxford, Essex, York and the University College of London, 10 were involved.

The Gioconda, also known as the Mona Lisa, is one of the best-known paintings in history. Painted by Leonardo Da Vinci between 1503 and 1519 (he was retouching it again and again, until his death), he keeps the mystery of a smile that the author wanted to show but, at the same time, hide. The intention of the painter, as historians explain, was that when we stared at the woman we had the feeling that she was serious, but that when looking at other areas of the painting, we would see her smiling.

This weekend we have a special appointment in Guadalajara with the Marathon of stories, from this afternoon at 5:00 p.m. until Sunday 17, with 46 uninterrupted hours telling and listening to stories. A single premise: you can't read, just tell, interpret and listen. This is the XXI Marathon of the Tales Festival Mysteries of Europe and is celebrated these days in Guadalajara with a lot of activities aimed at the whole family.

If "Looking for Nemo" has been one of those movies that you have seen at home again and again and again and again, as in a kind of infinite loop, "Looking for Dory" looks like it will produce the same effect on children, good and less childish as well. The new trip of this blue surgeon fish is released next Wednesday 22.

This week in Peques and Más we highlight an interview with Aida Antuña of Spanish Up in which she told us about how to start children in the Chinese language and that they are supposed to open the doors to the most spoken language in the world. We also spoke with Ainara Zubillaga of the UCJC who explained that they work to integrate entrepreneurship as a transversal competence in students.

Few things in life can be compared to the experience of having children. It is an adventure that brings with it many emotions and helps us to know skills and abilities that we did not know we had. But also, it can be overwhelming and exhausting. Personally, I think that the way we live motherhood depends a lot on our attitude and our way of thinking.

Many of you come to Babies and more through the Google search engine, social networks, the newsletter that we send by mail, or directly accessing our website, but today we want to present you Flipboard, a way of reading that if not you know it, it will hook you and where you will find our magazines with all the contents that we publish organized by themes.

All parents are interested in our children growing up healthy and strong. And a key part of this is the food we give them, through the variety of foods that cannot be lacking in their diet. However, sometimes children get somewhat picky and refuse to try or eat certain foods.

About a month ago we had our second son Aran. The fact is that due to the mood of the Spaniards and our “tomato” culture, free comments about the suitability or not of a second child are usually habitual. In other words, it is common for people to give you their opinion without thinking that it can bother you.

Today as every week we offer you a summary of the highlights of the last week in Babies and more. This week has been marked by the elections on Saturday and the events that took place in various parts of Spain, in the form of concentrations. From Babies and more we wanted to bring society's concern to the blog through children, with children entering the mobilizations for democracy.

The age at which a woman decides to be a mother for the first time depends on many factors, fundamentally personal. However, some external reasons may influence, statistically speaking, the age of motherhood. Recently a very interesting study has appeared, which, although applied to the French case, I think is, in part, extrapolated to our country.
