Hello, MOms, My son will be turning two in February and I do not know what to do. He loves balls - any and all. He lies the monkey from Curious George and Jungle Book. I would like to do something with balls but I can't think of anything for his age. His firth b-day was Happy Feet which was a bug hit! Any suggestions would be great on some kind og ball themed 2nd year b-day party. Thanks!

Gift Ideas for a 5 Year Old Girl

Two weeks ago my family moved to a new state. We have only had a chance to meet a couple of our neighbors. One of which invited us to her 5 year old daughter's birthday this coming weekend. She thought it would be a great chance for us to meet the other neighbors. The birthday is a come and go as you please party in their yard. They will also be inviting other neighbors from the surrounding few blocks. I also think this is a great opportunity to become part of our new neighborhood. I have only one child, a 22 month old son, so I have...

Baby Shower Games?

So...I'm hosting a baby shower this weekend...never done one before...but it's for a really good friend...so I'm willing to take the challenge. My planning it is somewhat short notice (something came up with the girl that was originally going to host it)...so I haven't had months to ponder and mull things over...more like days. I've talked to several different people who have said that most baby shower games are lame...just do something real simple and let everyone mingle. As I've looked at the guest list...majority of the ladies on there...

Birthday Party for 5 Year Old Girl

Any great ideas for a 5 year old's birthday party? She has mentioned Pump It Up but I'm trying to avoid it, I think! Haven't decided if this will be a boy/girl party or just girls. Thought of having it at a pottery shop that hosts parties - they paint something and then it's fired and delivered later. Not sure if that would be hard for them - delayed gratification and all? Anyone had or been to a great party for this age group lately? I'd love to hear about it!

6-Year Old Is a Picky Eater!!!!

I'm very frustrated with my 6 year old son who ONLY wants to eat junk. It drives me nuts. He has such a limited menu of food that he will eat. It is very frustrating. Today, while he was at school, the teacher expressed to me that my son is "fussy" when it comes to food. Today was Dr. Seuss day at school and she served "green eggs and ham." She also had biscuits with jelly, some fruit, etc. He wouldn't eat anything. He told me he's not used to eating at school. UGH. I'm frustrated because I don't know how to help him. He will not eat...
