How to Get Your Birthday Card on Sprout TV

January 09, 2013   Kristen   15 Comments
You have no idea how difficult it was to send this birthday card in, never to be seen again, and not knowing if all my crafting would be in vain!

Happy, Happy Birthday to You!  Happy, Happy Birthday to…(wait for it…)…You! If you know that Caillou comes on before Berenstain Bears during “The Goodnight Show” and if you know that the co-hosts of said show are Nina and Star, then you (undoubtedly) have a Sproutlet living in your home!  We don’t watch Nick Jr. or

Autumn Fun for Parents

November 10, 2011   Kristen   6 Comments
Collecting fall leaves with little ones can be an educational opprotunity that is loads of fun!

Fall is here, holiday season is here!  Since becoming a mom, one of my most favorite things has been re-experiencing all our traditions with Kysen.  At two-and-a-half, it feels like he is really understanding the concepts of Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas more and more (although he wouldn’t wear his Halloween costume).  From Halloween to New

Cool Back to School Lunch Box Ideas

September 01, 2011   Kristen   16 Comments
Take their lunch box from boring to a BLAST with a rock-star themed lunch time menu!

Let’s face it, just like us, our kids can get stuck in food-ruts.  Maybe you eat a turkey on rye everyday for lunch, or you have to have your oatmeal with soy milk for breakfast–our kids are no different!  And with no meal is this meal-time-monotony more prevalent than the school-day lunch!  So often, if

Toy Review: Bubble-Matic Car Wash by Hot Wheels

July 20, 2011   Kristen   2 Comments
The automatic bubble blower sold me on buying this for my 2-year-old son who is a Hot Wheels fanatic!

Today was one of those too-hot-to-go-to-the-park days, so I decided to treat Kysen to an awesome new toy from our local Toys R Us!  Funny side note: when Kysen was a newborn I used to insist that I would never let him go to the toy store when he was old enough to “understand” where

Is a mom’s club really worth it?

April 26, 2011   Kristen   No comments

Since Kysen was born, and he just recently turned two, I have been saying here and there, “You know what babe?  I think I’m going to join that local mom’s club!”  By the end of Kysen’s first year being mommy-clubless my DF would just roll his eyes and chuckle to himself.  But each time I

Is it really safe for my toddler to play with my iPhone?

April 18, 2011   Kristen   6 Comments

I guess I’m one of those moms who think too much about, well I guess a lot of things.  By nature, we moms are worriers, but my friends I have elevated it into a true art form!  Toxins in cleaning supplies, chlorine-free diapers, fragrance and chemical free lotions and shampoos, organic produce, organic meats, organic

Why is my child SO shy & is this “just a phase”?

April 18, 2011   Kristen   No comments

I used to be so proud that Kysen loved being the center of attention!  Something he got from me, undoubtedly, I would say to myself (okay, and to others)!  But something happened to my Shakespearian actor in training at around 18 months and now, almost 6 months later he is still the shy guy in

Help! My 2 year old runs away from me whenever I have to change him!

March 28, 2011   Kristen   No comments

Being a mom is a physically demanding job to say the least!  I can’t remember a night that I haven’t gone to bed with a sore shoulder, back, hip or neck.  And the nights that I feel too guilty asking my man to give me a rub down after his 10 hour day at the
