It is said that a child's smile is the most beautiful thing in the world, but it takes work to keep it that way!

In this latest episode of Stepping Stones Museum for Children's “Under the Cupola” podcast, Star 99.9's Kevin Begley and Robert Townes, the museum's Director of Public Affairs, are joined by Dr. Katherine Fleming, an Assistant Professor of Pediatric Dentistry at UConn's School of Dental Medicine to talk about the important things that we need to know to get our children's smiles back on track.

Under the Cupola: A Stepping Stones Museum for Children Podcast
Any time parents are concerned with their child's development or behavior or receive a special needs diagnosis, they are left with more questions than answers. Why isn't my child speaking? Or reading? Why are they hitting other kids? How do we get the help and services our child needs to succeed? How do we navigate the conversations this diagnosis will spark with our family, friends, school district and others? In this latest episode of Stepping Stones Museum for Children's “Under the Cupola” podcast, Star 99.9‘s Kevin Begley and Robert Townes, the museum's Director of Public Affairs, are joined by Eve Kessler and Janine Kelly, two local moms who found themselves in this exact scenario: When their children were diagnosed years ago, those answers were not always readily available and they felt alone in dealing with the important decisions that had to be made. Today, Eve, and Janine, along with their partner Carolina Corrigan, are leaders within SPED*NET, the Special Education Network of Wilton, a non-profit organization that works tirelessly to build an informative, welcoming community to help parents and caregivers learn “everything they wish they had known when they knew something was wrong with their children.” Please join us for a compelling conversation about raising children with special needs and how best to deal with a suspected or confirmed diagnosis. For more information about SPED*NET Wilton and its programs, please visit spednetwilton.org.

In this weeks episode of Master My Garden Podcast I am joined by Kevin Begley from Coolwater Garden. Coolwater garden is the third open garden feature on the podcast and although I haven't yet visited it sounds like a really interesting garden, unlike other open gardens it has no lawn or large herbaceous borders. Instead Coolwater features many native plants, a large pond area and a huge amount of alpine plants which have found their home in some of the 70 throughs and many containers in this garden which is open to the public all year apart from 2 weeks over Christmas/New year and is a garden I will certainly visit very soon. About Coolwater GardenA small private garden set on half an acre, which is open 12 months of the year, by prior arrangement, to groups. Distinctively different, Coolwater Garden, overlooked on either side by Skule Hill and Rockstown Castle, is designed for year round structure and shape. Its highlights contain a really cool water garden, a large number of landscaped Alpine troughs, covered Arid section, combe bordered with thyme running between two ponds, fern dell, juniper escarpment, Lewisia outcrop, Japanese Maple bed, bamboo, heath, etc, etc. Lizards, newts and frogs love the garden and have made it their home. Native stickleback fish explore for food in the water.Website: https://coolwatergarden.com/about/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/coolwatergarden/Twitter:https://twitter.com/kevjame?lang=enThere will be a blog post on this episode very soon on my website.
