It is a 4 hour drive, so are always looking for ways to keep the kids busy and entertained... A great item to check out for car rides, bedtime, and really any time is the Giddio Audio Adventures ... We listened to the Billy Brown Goes Hiking CD on our drive home, and it was a life saver for us... Will was super crabby, and the only thing that made him quit screaming was this CD...

The Tree of Life has many meanings to many people... There are stories about trees that produce peaches every 3,000 years that give you immortality if you eat it and trees that connect the underworld... There are also more realistic things concerning trees including global warming and the destruction of forests... We often forget that trees benefit the environment, and provide us food and medicines... What better symbol of our world, of life itself, than a tree - to remind us and inspire us to do all we can to protect our environment, says Paula Brooks, owner and designer at Alef Bet... Many of us do small acts to improve things each day, from carpooling to using cloth totes at the market... … View Post »

In this last year, I have started traveling quite a bit... I learned that my black luggage my hide dirt and wear and tear well... However, a lot of people are doing that now, so that has quit working... I hate to pass along this great idea, since then you all will buy them and ruin it for me... Just tie them (triple knot) to anything that you dont want to lose when you are flying such as your baggage, stroller, car seats, etc. These charms come with brightly colored ribbons and tags... On the back of the tag, you are able write or affix a label with all of your identifying information in case your luggage ends up separated from you (I hate when my luggage ends up on a better trip than me)... They wont look like anything anyone else has on their bag, so you dont have to worry about anyone accidentally grabbing you luggage... They are priced right, are fashionable, and they make your life that much easier... … View Post »

Something that my daughter likes is anything that can be customized... There are 50 letter and symbols that can be used, so you can easily make any message you want... Madison enjoyed being able to spell her name and then put a ton of symbols like a ice cream cones and a strawberry next to her name... Shains stands for state how action is a necessary solution... … View Post »
With children, it is amazing how many napkins you can go through at meal time... I have two kids, so double how many you are thinking in your mind... Until recently, I had no idea that there were companies out there that actually make cloth napkins for children... Most moms are doing the wash either every day or every other day (or is that just my house?),... so throwing a couple of extra napkins into that load is nothing... I am game for using items that help save the environment, and this is one of them... Most of all, the greatest thing about Fabkins is that your kids will want to use these!... … View Post »

My parents all have dialup, so if I send them pictures, it takes way to long for them to download them... Since we only see them once a month, they miss out on a lot of things... Presto has made it super easy to send pictures to people without computers, who have seriously slow internet connections (that would be all of you with dial up), and people who are not technologically inclined... Now, you are able to call in the information if you dont have an internet connection too... To make the Presto Printer work, all you need is an analog phone line, paper, and a print cartridge... The only people who can send things to print off have to be included on your friend list!... … View Post »
