This is a recall for Canada but since there is a concern over the chemical used in the manufacturing of plastic bottles, it might be a good idea to look into whether your bottles contain the chemical bisphenol A. Although there is not sufficient data that says bisphenol A is harmful to humans, there is [...]

You may not think that history is a very important subject to teach your young child but you are completely wrong. History is just another way to broaden your child’s horizons and to give to them world’s that seem completely unimaginable.
When my oldest became focused on Egypt, he couldn’t believe how different the world had [...]

I am a huge fan of goop, not only is it a great experience for children to play in but it also feels great to just let your hands sink into it. Goop has the wonderful properties where it will run when there is no resistance but add that resistance and it goes hard and chalky. [...]

When my sister’s beautiful baby became a difficult and argumentative child, I thought to myself, “Well, that’s karma,” since my sister had been pretty difficult and argumentative as a child herself. I didn’t worry about that karma coming and biting me since I hadn’t been nearly as argumentative as she had, although I definitely wasn’t the [...]

Wow, can you believe that your baby has grown a year. I know I was always surprised when that first birthday rolled around for both of my kids. I felt like I had missed out on something, that maybe I hadn’t cuddled enough or really enjoyed those quiet moments that are so normal for infants. [...]
