Sesame Street Goes Global
Published on Friday, October 31, 2008 by caryn I, like many of you, grew up watching Sesame Street. My son absolutely adores Sesame Street (I know, I know...I'm violating AAP's number one rule!). He especially loves Play With Me, Sesame. I must be naive but I really never thought about the fact that children all over the world watch Sesame Street too! About a month ago, Putumayo Kids released Sesame Street ... Read More » -

Trading for Girls
Published on Friday, October 31, 2008 by caryn Contrary to popular belief, girls enjoy trading cards just like boys. I can attest to this since I was an avid collector of a trading card so digustingly popular, I almost cringe. I collected the oh-so-popular Garbage Pail Kids (although I have no idea why my mother would let me). Thankfully, parents now have a sweeter, more magical option with Bella Sara tradin...

THE House!
Published on Tuesday, October 28, 2008 by caryn I cannot believe that we have finally moved into our very first home. Jason and I are beyond excited and extremely a tad bit overwhelmed.

Innovative Solutions: Mabel’s Labels
Published on Tuesday, October 28, 2008 by caryn My son and I were at Whole Foods the other day and a very nice lady informed me that my son had taken off one of his shoes. If only we had someone else constantly on the watch for the stuff our kids throw, drop, or misplace. It's inevitable...children are going to lose things. We might as well accept it so that we don't lose sleep over the $20.00 sippy cup or t... Read More » -

Green Me: Fun in the Sun with KINeSYS
Published on Thursday, October 23, 2008 by caryn The temperature in my car this morning read 95 degrees. Yes...that's not a typo. It's nearing November in Southern California and apparently nobody told the weather control systems that it's fall...which means the temperature should be falling! Regardless of how hot it is outside, we should all wear sunscreen on a regular basis to protect against one of the most... Read More » -
