"Twist me and turn me and show me an elf, I looked in the water and saw.... Myself" from Brownie Girl Scout's Initiation pledge.

Discovering your child's inner Artist
November 19, 2008
Drawing and coloring with your kids is a great activity to not only help your child express himself, but it also fosters imagination and helps kids learn to think outside the box. I'm sure we've all sat down with a child to color a page and cringed just a little when the child started to color the cow blue or the little girls face green. To kids there are no rules. I do believe that Read more...

June 17, 2008
Looking at the incredible variety of options for "extra-curricular" activities for pre-schoolers nearly always sends me into a "When I was a kid, things were different..." rant. I'm amazed at the lessons, classes, sports, and other activities are available for children as young as two.
