Children's Books on Kindness by iowacookiemom
I've been asked to speak to a group of mothers of preschoolers at a nearby church on the topic of kindness. I want to focus mostly on ways to model kindness with our children but I thought it would be fun to also provide a little bibliography of children's books that have kindness as a...

chipped tooth?!? by Karen G
What is the standard response to a chipped baby tooth these days? My not quite 1 year old bumped his mouth on the bathtub and chipped one of his front upper teeth. It doesn't appear to be sharp, but it definitely doesn't look as smooth as the one next to it. We plan to call the dentist on...

Christmas present request -- can you identify this? by iowacookiemom
It's so hard to find anything an 11 year old wants that doesn't cost $500, and even harder to get an 11 year old boy to be specific about clothing he might want... so I was thrilled when Henry mentioned he would like a certain kind of shirt. It sounds vaguely familiar to me, but I can't identify...

Cleaning out the Closets by Scott
Yesterday I finally threw out the remains of my kids' Halloween candy (Well, I ate the peanut M&Ms, which neither of them like). They protested very little. I figure it was past time. DD is now afraid of being kidnapped. Too many abduction stories in the paper, I'm afraid. I wonder how long...

Cloth Diapers? by [email protected]
I am curious about cloth diapers vs disposable. Do or have any of you use/d cloth diapers? If so, what is the cost savings? Any positive or negative comments welcome! Thanks!

Clothing for tweens by Beeswing
My daughter is 9 and is getting to a point where she wants to pick clothes for herself. We were in a hurry yesterday and she needed a few new tops and pants, so my husband and I took her down to Sears with express purpose of looking at the Lands' End stuff. Well, it's between seasons, and there...

Computer game: Sims "Hot Date" by Pam
My 11 1/2 year old daughter loves the Sims -- and has been buying all the expansion packs like Superstar, Unleashed, and Vacation. Now she wants Hot Date. She's not particularly interested in the romantic stuff -- mostly in the other features it will give her Sims. She wants Downtown and wants them...

Computer monitoring by Greg
Greetings all. I'm a father of one teenaged daughter, and another teeneager-to-be (not too soon, thank the Gods!) As with any household, the use of the computer has become quite an issue. Parental controls on my AOL account don't seem to be enough. She still manages to find her way to...

Concept development in kids by Todd Smith
I don't have children, but I thought it would be interesting to know if a 3-4 year old kid would know that a brick (or something else shown to them to be heavy by an adult) would not bounce if dropped on the ground, and what his answer would be if you asked about dropping it on a trampoline...

Contact info for Bear Feet shoes? by LucyD
I wonder if anyone can help. I am trying to locate the Bear Feet shoe company. I am in the UK so I am not sure how to get this info. I have tried googling but no luck so far. Plenty of resellers, but I'm keen to get in touch with the actual makers of the shoes. I believe they are in Texas. Any info...

Cookie baking with kids? by Robin
I have unexpectedly found myself with the assignment of leading two dozen children, ages 8-11, in a cookie-baking project at a school party this weekend. (I volunteered to help cook. This is not what I had in mind.) The project will involve making and decorating cookie-cutter sugar cookies, to be...

Corners and ovens: The fears of an old parent of a young child by Ann Porter
Having a little one at my advanced age has been very different from having a little one in my youth. I was much more carefree when I was younger. I'm still not going to freak if he drops a piece of candy then eats it. But this time I have two major sources of anxiety that I had never thought...

Cranium games--which one? by Chris
I have heard and read that the Cranium games are fun and thought of getting one as a gift this year. I didn't realize there are about 10 different versions! Any thoughts on which would be the most appropriate for a family with a 10 and 14 year old boys? Chris

Creative solution for adolescent droopy drawers syndrom (STMD) by Dawn
STMD=sly things moms do Like many boys his age, Henry is into wearing his jeans low with a generous portion of underwear showing. It doesn't help that his stocking stuffers this year were designer boxers that he's proud of. Sigh. He got in trouble often at home for having them too low and twice...

CTTD (spelling test again) by Iowacookiemom
I spoke too soon about 100% on Henry's first spelling test (see "In other news...") -- Jerry privately pointed out to me that he actually missed one and the fellow student who graded it didn't see it. The CTTD is really a Jerry/Henry thing. Helping Henry study, Jerry decided to try a new...

CTTD: Making the Bed by Ann Porter
I visited my daughter and her family for my granddaughter's baptism last month. I was helping my grandson clean up his room. We picked up his book and his toys, and then he helped me make the bed. When we were all done with the bed, and the room looked nice and tidy, he said, "Let's do it...

CTTD: Making up the rules as we go by Ann Porter
Today, my 4 y/o wanted to play the "no talking" game. The rules were, the first one to talk or laugh, loses. He said "ready, set, go," and we started the game. Well, I didn't have anything in particular that HAD to be said, what with being 44 and all. So in a few minutes, he says, "Mommy,...

CTTS (age 10): there's no X in Y by Ted Alper
I haven't posted in some time, but Morris just told me this morning about a verbal exchange he had at school yesterday and I was paralyzed with laughter for a good minute -- and who can I tell? So, apparently he wasn't trying hard enough during PE yesterday (I think they were playing basketball),...
