Experiencing life instead of documenting it: A 3 YO reads to our cat
The other week 3 YO Mojo had a tricycle wreck which earned him his first trip to the ER and 6 stitches in his chin. Those stitches had to stay in for 6 days and unknown to him he had something in common with Ripley, one of our cats. A week prior to that she went to the doctor to have minor surgery near her eye; which required her to have 6 stitches too. After that the major difference that he noticed about her was that the cone she wore around her head was convenient for putting his Little People in.

NogginStik is the rattle that you wish you had as newborn
A rattle is a rattle. We received lots of them for each child when they were born. They were silver or multicolored plastic, made a rattling sound and did everything a rattle should do. But what if a rattle could do more than just make a shaking noise when a baby moves it? A NogginStik is just that, it’s bumpy on the stick part, has multicolored lights and a mirror on the bottom of it. Continue reading NogginStik is the rattle that you wish you had as newborn

Superman and the Poisoned Planet is a book kids will dig

While the art may take some of the spotlight, with comic books and heroes it all comes down the reading aspects to make a good book really click.

What the Christmas tree means to a 3 year old
For many non secular reasons Christmas is a magical time to a 3 year old. Some of the houses in the neighborhood are decorated with bright lights outside. Ironically, more often than not it’s those houses without a 3 year old that do decorate outside. Our children are all 3 or younger and I’ve observed that the magical ‘decorate outside age’ is when the oldest is 5 and up. Continue reading What the Christmas tree means to a 3 year old
