The Parent Bloggers Network

We knew life would change when we had kids, but who ever expected to be scrubbing strained carrots off the ceiling? Even if our kids aren’t throwing food or swinging from the chandeliers, life definitely gotten a lot more zoo-ey since we’ve had kids.

So we want to know how your house resembles the zoo. Kids eating from the dog’s bowl? Leaping from couches to chairs like monkeys? Screeching at top volume all day long? Share all of your kids’ crazy behavior with us!

We’ve teamed up with Generation Next this week to announce their brand-new product - iKnow Animals, Letters & Sounds. Created in partnership with the world-famous San Diego Zoo (where you’ll find Generation Next highlighted on the San Diego Zoo website as a featured partner!), this collection of media uses eye-popping graphics, beautiful music, and engaging video to not only help teach children to read, but actively involve them in helping the animals and the planet.

When you give your children iKnow Animals, Letters & Sounds you’ll be doing much more than encouraging an active interest in reading, you’ll be promoting a lifelong love of learning. When kids view reading as a fun, enjoyable activity, their reading skills improve naturally. While teaching children to read, speak, listen, observe and interact, iKnow Animals, Letters & Sounds sparks your children’s interest and makes learning an adventure – and fun, too!

iKnow Animals, Letters & Sounds includes a DVD Collection (3.5 hours running time), Bonus Music CD, textured Flash Cards, Parent Place online, and iKnow TV interactive games.

Here’s how to participate:

Write a post on your blog telling us how kids have made your life zoo-ey. Post anytime this weekend - Today, September 26 to Sunday, September 28 and include links to http://www.takeprideadventurelearning.com and http://blog.parentbloggers.com.

Make sure to send your blog post link to parentbloggers@gmail.com and we’ll round them right here - so give your post a creative title!
