THIS Mother Child Bag is just what this summer needs to carry our beach gear and keep together on busy the boardwalk of Coney Island!

I believe kids should take part in the cooking process and get to know the ways of creating in the kitchen. THESE plastic cooking knives for kids are just perfect for that.

Amy Poehler has a great new website called Smart Girls at the Party. She interviews young girls who do really cool stuff. My daughter's favorite episode is on the Care Bears on Fire. The latest one on Rachel : The Engineer, is pretty great as well!
