March 17th, 2008

Dream Blankets for Warmth and Sweet Dreams

March 16th, 2008

When my daughter became too big for sleep sacks, we were faced with a dilemna.  It was still very chilly at night, but large blankets seemed too big for her crib, while smaller blankets either weren’t warm enough or she kicked them off immediately.  We needed something warm, big enough to tuck in, but not [...]

Lip Care for the Cold Months

March 15th, 2008

Even when I don’t wear makeup (and those of you who know me in person know that is a very rare occurence), I always wear some sort of lip gloss or lip balm.  This is especially true in the winter, when I’m constantly fighting chapped lips.  Lately I’ve been using two commonly available products to [...]

Hair Products for Your Preschooler

March 14th, 2008

Until you have kids, you could never possibly realize how difficult hair care can be.  As a toddler, my daughter always disliked having her hair cut, and as a preschooler, she still hates having her hair washed or brushed.  As a result, she often leaves the house with her hair messier than I would like.

Captivating Tunes in Spanish & English

March 11th, 2008

My daughter has already been exposed to some Spanish in preschool, and she absolutely loves it.  We’ve been trying to figure out the best way to encourage her interest, especially since I don’t actually know Spanish.  When I heard about the Boca Beth program, which combines Spanish with music, I thought it may be a [...]

Sock Shoe Hybrids for Your Little Ones

March 10th, 2008

My kids have always worn soft soled shoes as toddlers - I really feel that their developing feet need the flexibility.  But, when it comes to pool/beach/water shoes, I’ve always struggled to find something they can easily walk in.  Most water shoes have stiffer soles than what my kids are used to wearing, but of [...]

March 8th, 2008

Any mom of two little ones knows how difficult it can be to keep one child near your car as you load the other one into the car seat.  My daughter, who usually is very good at listening, often runs across our driveway when something catches her eye.
