Forget the crowds at the local water park and make way for your very own water feature with all or one of these fun water finds that have the kids laughing and [...]
A bag big enough for your summer travel
Our family made a big move this spring. The USAF has moved us to Germany which I believe makes me the blog’s unofficial European correspondent. The move required us to ship our ‘big’ car and use our ‘little’ car for 3 months. During this time we would be living mostly in hotels and would have [...]
Spotlight Product Review: Bumbleride Indie Twin 2011
The Bumbleride Indie Twin 2011 is the same Indie Twin we have grown to love with just a few minor changes to the actual stroller itself. All the changes are to the fabrics! 2011 is all about fabric choices for the Indie & Indie Twin. Bumbleride has introduced two new fabric collections that are available [...]

Don’t hit the “summer slump” — great activities for summer learning
If what they say is true, don’t let your kids fall victim to the “summer slide” which basically says that kids forget about half of what they learned the previous year during the summer months because of lack of “practice.” Every school year teachers begin their month of lessons just reviewing the basics from last [...]
Who’s afraid of the dark? We handpicked the best nightlights for tots!
Every kid goes through it at one time or another — they become afraid of the dark. Some start it right away when they start sleeping on their own and others start it at the age when everything becomes “scary” – which for my daughter was around age 3. Although we’re over that fear now, [...]
Spotlight Product Review: BabyBjörn High Chair
Have you heard the saying, good things come in small packages? The new BabyBjörn High Chair is sure to be one of those small things. We recently put the BabyBjörn High Chair to the test and this is what we found. Assembly: The seat of the high chair is one piece; with the [...]
Clean an appliance that’s sole job is to clean? Really?
Ever thought of cleaning the inside of your washing machine? No? Yeah, me neither. I guess I just figured with an appliance that is in existence to solely clean things, that maybe it would just keep itself clean. I mean it’s cleaning my clothes with soap every week, right? Doesn’t that just keep it clean? [...]
Baby Gizmo Spotlight Review: Soft Bums OMNI Cloth Diaper
I’m no stranger to cloth diapers. I started cloth diapering my (almost) 9-year-old when he was 6-months-old and my second son was in cloth from birth. I do have to be honest though; my third son came when my second just turned two. I was overwhelmed (and had a bout of postpartum depression) and cloth [...]
