DH and I drink green tea, iced with a bit of sugar in it. Our 2.75 year old drinks it from time to time. I think the antioxidants would be good for him. But does anyone know if herbal tea is okay for kids to drink every once in a while or even daily? Sue

DOGVILLE A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 2004 Steve Rhodes RATING (0 TO ****): * Running a painfully long three hours, DOGVILLE is pretentious with a capital "P." It is an art house picture by writer/director Lars von Trier, who

I have a lot of baby carriers. I like the idea of wearing my baby, but none of the carriers worked out with DS. Now that I have DD, I get to try again. I tried DD in the Baby Bjorn and the Maya Wrap Pouch. Like DS, she did not like it. She cried and I was not comfortable. I bought the Ultimate...

I'm considering starting to use flashcards to teach DS to read using something like Glenn Doman's programme - i.e., spending seconds or at most a few minutes per day doing it, and always stopping if DS isn't interested right then. I know some people are vehemently anti such programmes. I'm not very...

I have few white onesies I'm going to re-use for my baby. You won't believe they are white even if I tell you. They were hand-me-downs to begin with. I was wondering if it's ok to run them through a bleach cycle once and wash them again to get rid of the bleach. I plan to do this only once to get...

Long time lurker, first time poster here. My daughter is 3½, and still in diapers. I'm not here for pottytraining advice though, she's just not ready, and until she is, we're gonna stay with the diapers. My problem is a bit different. DD has recently began leaking out of pretty much every...
