How Young Children can Help with the Laundry

Wahm

Early last month, I posed the question, “Can Preschoolers Help Clean?” and provided a list of chores for preschoolers to do around the house. Many of you agreed that yes, preschoolers can indeed help clean around the house and even provided a few additional suggestions based on what your kids help with.
One of the original [...]

Can Preschoolers Help Clean?

Wahm

Today I found myself home with my baby girl but also needing to clean. She didn’t go to preschool today, but I knew that I couldn’t let her being home get in the way of cleaning. This is a busy and short week for me due to the upcoming trip to Blissdom, so it is [...]

Are Your Kids Enrolled in Extra-Curricular Activities?

Parenting

Growing up, I never participated in extra-curricular activities such as dance class, little league sports, or anything of the sort. While my friends were off learning ballet, tap, and jazz, I was at home. Doing homework. Or maybe chores. It’s not something I ever got to experience as a child.
I try hard not to live [...]

There are many forms of discipline and punishment that parents use with their children. In our house, we’ve used the time out method, the just talking method, the redirecting method, and we’ve even yelled at times out of losing our patience. Hey, it happens, right?
But, lately, we’ve come up with a new system [...]

Becoming a Big Girl

preschoolers

I realized the other day that I never actually updated you on our potty training issues.
You’ll be glad to know that baby girl is officially potty trained. Full out. All the way. For real.
The girl goes to the potty by herself without us having to remind her, she’ll tell us if she needs to go [...]

Parenting

My daughter is 3. THREE!!! She does not need to know about Hannah Montana.
So, why does everyone and their mom think that it’s prime time my daughter be introduced to her?
Is this not a TV show for tween/teenage girls? I’ve seen it a couple of times and it’s definitely geared for girls 10 and up [...]
