Are Moms Unsexy? – About: Baby News...

This week on “The View,” the ladies discussed actress Julia Roberts ‘ wavering popularity and whether being a mom (or not) is what makes a woman sexy . Jolie consistently graces the covers of weekly tabloid magazines for her scandalous romance with Brad Pitt, while Roberts (who also started dating camera man Danny Moder while he was still married) seemingly makes a concerted effort to stay out of the limelight when she’s not working, and focuses on family life. One would be hard pressed to argue that Jolie’s beauty is greater than Roberts’; after all, Roberts was named one of the 50 Most Beautiful People by “People” magazine in 2002 – when she was roughly Angie’s age. The actress and her partner Brad Pitt have three adopted children — Maddox, 7, Pax, 4, and Zahara, 3 — and three biological children — Shiloh, 2, and baby twins Knox and Vivienne. read more

Michelle Obama’s White House Garden – ...

Michelle Obama’s White House Garden – Victory or Crisis? The historical roots of the American victory garden are an ironic backdrop to the First Lady’s efforts. Dubbed, “crises gardens,” these gardens are largely a response to fears and uncertainties over the American economy, specifically, inflation and currency devaluation . It doesn’t take an “economics major” to realize that this crisis has been a long time coming. Victory gardens were also meant to be morale boosters. read more

Why Does Dora Have To Grow Up?- Topic: Baby News...

Does Nickelodeon really think that by introducing a new ” tweenier ” Dora that they are going to be able to compete with the entertainment juggernaut that is Hannah Montana? Perhaps they are planning to have Dora try out for a musical , you know, at her high school ? I love the fact that my daughters (as well as my son – although he’d not admit to watching it) will be able to watch a smart, compassionate and confident thinker who enjoys learning (not just reading and writing I might add, she also likes math and science which we are supposed to be encouraging in our young girls. Tween Dora is not trashy, her entire body is covered up which is more than I can say for Preschool Dora who has had her little tummy hang out for years. read more

Jaime Pressly Says She Shed Her Skin For Motherhoo...

Unfortunately for Jaime and her ex-fiancé Eric Calvo , aka DJ Eric Cubiche, the life they imagined for themselves did not pan out, as the pair announced their split after calling off their engagement before Christmas. It doesn’t matter if you’re dating, engaged, married – I think every couple is simply trying to make it last. I think marriage is a wonderful thing, and if I ever met a guy whom I wanted to spend the rest of my life with (and who wanted to spend the rest of his life with me), I’d certainly much prefer to get married than just live together without being married.

Being Popular in School Pays Off- About: Baby News...

Not only do popular kids know lots of people, and therefore have lots of connections that may come in handy in the workplace, they also are mastering a valuable skill early on. For a boy, being popular may mean having lots of people like you, but for a girl it often means having lots of people simply know who you are . It’s so amazing to observe some of the kids who are TRULY popular and to see who those kids are! Some of the most popular kids are actually not the kids who come from the most affluent families but simply have a certain something that just can’t be explained, taught, or learned. read more

Topic: Baby News – Living With Less Can Lead...

In 1956, Coach Jerry Sacharski couldn’t turn away the little guys who showed up wanting to be part of his summer baseball program, so he started the first PeeWee T-ball league to teach the six -to-eight-year-old set the fundamentals of baseball and a thing or two about good, clean fun. Sacharski passed away on February 27th, and this week the the Wall Street Journal pondered whether parents, concerned with our shaky economic climate, might be foregoing expensive family vacations this summer to rediscover less costly family-bonding activities like T-ball and a game of catch in the backyard. Prior to the experiment, Candice’s teenage sons couldn’t remember the last time they ate a sit-down, home-cooked family dinner; now they eagerly look forward to it. She took the camera crew back to the modest home she once shared with her late husband and recalled a day when the family spent an afternoon playing together in piles of leaves. For many families, life has become way too materialistic and yet too unstable (with the average family holding 4 digits in credit card debt – unreal! read more

Tooth Tunes Musical Toothbrush: Boogie While You B...

This feels a bit like lazy parenting to me – rather than trying to teach or discipline their child, they’re trying to appease them and reward them before they’ve even done the job. I know some may think that they’re a bit frivolous but I know they help my kids brush the appropriate amount of time since they never brushed for long enough in the past. I just got my daughter a VeggieTales singing toothbrush because I was running out of ways to teach her to keep brushing for at least 2 minutes (getting her to brush wasn’t the problem, she just wasn’t brushing long enough) She’s brushed her teeth 4 times today. Can’t our kids be left un-entertained for the 2 minutes it takes them to brush their teeth? Celebrity parents tell us which baby products they can’t live without!
