Rabbit's KOA Guide
Hello, 你好, Bonjour, Hola, Kamusta, 여보세요, Здравствуйте!If you are here, you're probably from my alliance, Vikings of Valhalla in kingdom 499 of the game King Of Avalon, or you're just looking for some help. Either way, you have come to the right place. Below is everything I know, have learned, and what I personally do in the game. There are so many different aspects, bits, and pieces to this game, but I am trying to cover as much as I can.

In Appreciation of the Mom at Home
Like a lot of other people, I am the product of a single mother. I always respected my mother, imperfect as she may be, because I knew she worked hard for us. I was very aware at a much younger age than most people might have been before learning about money, and the value of it. I watched my mom for years sacrifice for me and my brother, and let's be real, that is what being a parent is. Especially being a mother.

Cloth Pads
They may seem a little scary at first, but cloth pads are actually incredibly easy to use! Cloth pads have wings that fold around your underwear like a regular pad, and usually have a snap button to hold them in place. Your main challenge is picking a good brand. (I like GladRags or Lunapads!) You'll need to change your cloth pad about every two to six hours. As often as you would personally change a regular disposable pad, you should change your cloth pads too, because just like a disposable pad they can become too full and leak. If you're out of the house, you can simply bring a plastic grocery bag with you and put your used pad in there until you get home, or buy a product made for them like this carry bag from GladRags, which I personally love. Having a cute and discreet bag to carry around menstrual products rules, and it's easy to just grab it and go to the bathroom instead of lugging my whole purse or bag around.

The Forgotten Toy
I used to be quite furry, but now I'm worn and bare.You loved me lots, you loved me most, and said you would always be there. There were others, shiny new toys that made noise, trains and planes and dolls, and other bears that had more hair, but you loved me most of all. Every night I fought the bad dreams, I chased away your fears! Until one day, you threw me down, and you forgot that I was here.. It's been so many years of me lying all alone, I know you're really busy now but I'll never give up hope. I'm under here among the shoes, the dust, the clothes, the books. I hear you every night in bed and wish I was still snuggled close. It's been so long since I've seen your face, my gosh is it really you? You look so much older now, and I guess that I must to. I don't think you meant to grab me, I was lying close to your sweater. But when you saw me your eyes widened and you grinned from ear to ear. I can't believe it, back on the bed, what a view of our old room! You've moved a few things around I see, as you flop down next to me. I love you lots, I love you most, I'm so glad you remember me.

Get Organized!
If you had told me a few years ago that I would become a mother at the age of 18, I probably would have laughed at you. In fact, even now I sometimes find my current life situation hard to believe. My life now consists of diapers (36 a day to be exact), nine or ten bottles, 12 sippy cups, and lots of naps. I have a two-year-old son, a one-year-old son, and a daughter who is a month old as I am writing this. Life can get pretty crazy in my house, I'm a stay at home mom whose main role in life is "mom." It can be easy to let yourself become overwhelmed if you have one kid, let alone three, so here's how this momma survives.
