What do kids like to eat?
By Tara in family , 10 minutes ago
I have two of them and I often find myself asking this question! One day they love something- the next, they don't. The days of me chopping fresh spinach into an egg omelet are long gone. When my kids ate that for breakfast, I felt like they were getting in such a healthy meal and I was so happy for the rest of the... Continue reading »

Taking tangrams to new places: Your walls
By Cool Mom Picks in family , 42 minutes ago
I've seen enough tangram activities in my kids' math books to know that they are supposed to be great at fostering an early understanding of geometry, spatial reasoning, and design. But eh, my kids just think they are fun and make neat pictures. Continue reading »
Retro Games: How to Play Hopscotch
By modernbaby in family , 44 minutes ago
Hopscotch was such an important part of childhood when I was a kid that a hopscotch game was permanently painted on to the blacktop of our elementary school playground. Everyone not only knew how to play, they knew who was the best at it. You’d spend hours on the weekends looking for just the right hopscotch stone... Continue reading »

Mia Hamm on Sports, Kids, Healthy Eats and Life!
By Fit Bottomed Mamas in family , 1 hour ago
The only and only Mia Hamm. I’ve never been a soccer player. For some reason the whole foot-to-ball coordination that you need doesn’t come very naturally to me. However, that doesn’t mean that I don’t like to watch soccer. I remember watching the 1999 FIFA Women’s World Cup and being... Continue reading »

Books - On my reading list
By Bubba Babble in family , 2 hours ago

I'm a huge magazine addict but that's a whole other post all to itself. So at the moment I'm reading two books about child rearing. The first book is: 'the no-cry sleep solution for...

I never know how to make this happen, but I just learned that it begins with primer and ends with a spritz of setting spray. Keiko Lynn‘s latest beauty tutorial on... Continue reading »
