Boogie: Here’s What They’re Saying So Far

If you only think video gaming involves blank stares at the screen and idle bodies stuck on the couch, then you haven’t seen the Nintendo Wii. They’re changing the face of gaming by getting kids and families up and off the sofa. We’re talking highly interactive participation from everyone involved.
And so our bloggers have been [...]

Ryka Campaign Launch

With the exercise and fitness markets growing by leaps and bounds every year, it’s amazing that there has yet to be a popular company that appeals just to women, not just men’s items in smaller sizes.
Enter Ryka, an athletic clothing and shoe company founded by women FOR women. That means the fit and comfort means [...]

The Bilingual Edge - Proficiency Means Knowing More Than “Ou Sont Les Toilettes?”, Plus a Little Something About Baby Loves Disco Blog Blast for Friday (Free Shoes)

When I visited Paris with my husband and parents in 2001, I was designated official communicator. And even though I read, spoke, and comprehended the language better than my traveling companions - well enough, in fact, to crack a joke en francais that made our cab driver laugh - it would be truly laughable if [...]

Mr. Dad for School Child Fathers: Final Round Up and Launch of DVD Toolbox for New Dads

With Labor Day right around the corner, that means two things. Lots of travel traffic and SCHOOL. Certainly parents have done everything they can to prepare their child — new clothes, new books, and new shoes. But how do you as a parent prepare for your child becoming a student?
Parenting a school aged child opens [...]

KINeSYS Performance Sunscreen Final Round Up

Even though school has started (or is about to start) doesn’t mean summer is anywhere near ending. And that means making sure you and your family are protected from the sun. Whereas the idea of covering your kids (and yourselves) in sunscreen made or broke your decision for outdoor activity, it seems as though our [...]

Girlology: Hang-Ups, Hook-Ups, and Holding Out - Campaign Launch

As a mother of two little girls - with a third set of X chromosomes on the way - I know that someday I’ll have to have some heavy conversations with my children. Even though I’m still several years away, the thought of those conversations is already enough to elevate my blood pressure - [...]

Boogie Launch: Shake it, Sing it, Create it (Plus a little something from Car Blabber)

With families getting busier and busier, finding together time that doesn’t involve driving in a car or sitting around the television is difficult. It’s not so much that parents don’t try, but engaging kids in meaningful activities in the house requires superhuman powers, or major incentives.
Until now, thanks to EA’s new Wii game Boogie.
Whatever you [...]
