When our bloggers and their kids decided to take on The Dark Dreamweaver, I was very curious to check out their reviews. I’m not familiar with tween books seeing as my kids are fairly little, and quite frankly, all I’ve ever heard about is Harry Potter.
The first half of bloggers found it to be creative, [...]

After reading the final blogger reviews of “When Parents Hurt” by Joshua Coleman, it seems that regardless of individual circumstances, it was a difficult read for all. Some bloggers were estranged from their own parents, some bloggers’ spouses had cut ties with their parents, and other bloggers simply wanted to learn how they might [...]

Please welcome this month’s interviewee - Victoria Pericon of Savvy Mommy!
Congratulations - Savvy Mommy is now five years old! Forgive the negative implications of this characterization, but you really are an online veteran, particularly where it comes to parenting resources. How has the site evolved since its initial conception? What sort of influence do you [...]

If the first set of reviews wasn’t enough to get you interested in Noah’s Pals, then just wait until you see what the rest of our bloggers had to say about these durable animal toys (or really, collector’s items).
The animals, ranging from the simple cow to the very fancy and difficult to pronounce ”muntjac,” come complete [...]

If you haven’t figured out what to do with your library of prego books, here’s a suggestion. Don’t pass them on to your friend. Use them instead of a seat booster and go purchase Body, Soul, & Baby, the new pregnancy/new mom book from Dr. Tracy Gaudet, Director of Duke Medical School’s Department of Integrative [...]

But with these advances have come an easy (and sometimes misplaced) reliance on [...]

With all this Harry Potter hype, I imagine many folks have forgotten that they are other great fantasy books out there for kids. And when many of us our busy keeping our kids occupied this summer, we often don’t have time to research and read other books.
Well, our parent bloggers are doing that for you [...]

Blogging has provided a voice to many people who were previously left unheard. And it has allowed many to share their stories of hope, grief, and change. And for others, it has been a vehicle to support a cause near and dear to their heart.
With that in mind, we’re teaming up with iBakeSale today in [...]

I anticipated that “When Parents Hurt” would provoke soul-searching among the bloggers who reviewed it - after all, it’s a rare person whose family experiences little or no conflict.  A few bloggers are (or were) estranged from their own parents, others have a sibling who is estranged from their parents, and they were all interested [...]

With all the toys out there that require 14 batteries and do nothing short of drive mom and dad bonkers, it’s nice to find toys out there that require no on and off button, but rather, just pure imagination. And while you might have found some great toys that require no bells and whistles, it’s [...]
