Question by Miko: What are good activities for a 3 yr old during March and so on in NY?
Hi guys :)
I have a three year old brother that kinda turned into a couch potato already :( I really want him to get active and invigorated in some way because I turned from childhood tv junkie into a college couch potato. I kinda was hoping for some fun and (cheap) creative ideas. Maybe a website might help or even your experience (I’d really like that). Anything like easy outdoor games that keep him interested because you know how that goes (he’s finds the mud more interesting if bored). And fun indoor games that involve creativity and evoke some brain cells to bounce around. I guess I’m asking for parenting advice because I want him to have an easy time when he gets to kindergarten. My community is pretty “well-off” and really takes education highly and manages to really give a lot of opportunities in life and education for their kids; which I appreciate. I was a socially awkward kid and my parents, they are wonderful, don’t socialize a lot either. We don’t know a lot of people with young children aside from my aunt that visits us with her kids like once or twice a month. Anyway I just want my brother to feel comfortable about meeting others and suggestions would be great; oh he goes to a preschool but I don’t want to be awkward and say to the parents your kid and my brother should be friends…Hellooo. I guess I want him to develop his self esteem and tell him “hey it’s ok to be yourself especially now when your a kid.” This was a really tough life lesson for me to learn and I hope my brother can learn to laugh at himself a little. This is kinda an awkward entry but I’m ready for the challenge and I hope my parents too. My brother is a sweet kid and I just want him to be at ease with himself, he genuinely has a beautiful smile and eyes that really light up and some poop humor (why do kids always have to laugh about poop?). I was thinking about passing my interests to him like art and reading and music. Music is lovely and I would like to know some ways I can incorporate it in his life… like patting some drums or dancing or whatever.

Question by clo: Was I so wrong?
I told another mom, that my daughter enjoys “outdoor activities” better than sitting in front of her laptop chatting with her daughter and she said to me, that using the computer will be very helpful in her future life (my kid is 7) so, I told her to “get real” and suddenly, the conversation on the phone was over. I heard a “click”. My daughter is playing outside now, with my son. She is having a blast!!!
I wasn’t snotty she sounded like she wanted to convince me and honestly, I don’t like to be pushed around. I just explained to her my reasons and she is not a friend, just a mom whose daughter is in my daughter’s class and we meet in school outside, when we pick them up.

Best answer:

Question by : Wedding seating question?
Who sits at the head table with the bride and groom?
My maid-of-honors fiance is mean. I love both the best man and his girlfriend. The rest of my wedding party will be under 15 years old (not even kidding. They’re my siblings. 4 of them. 2 boys, 2 girls.)

I’ll probably just have to suck it up with my best friends fiance huh? Becuase I know my fiance wants the best man at our table.

So that will be 6 of us at the head table. We can have up to 8. Should I put our mothers at the head table? Both of our mothers are single. (well, mine is married but my step father will not be invited to my wedding….he is abusive, and this is a new start for me)..

• Made with the Best Quality Material with your child in mind.

Having fun with your kids this summer should not be a hassle or expensive. You have many options in your own backyard or nearby parks or recreational areas. Make a summer of fun your kids will remember forever.

When the summer heat is getting to you, consider water fun on your own property. Set up a cheap kiddie pool, a slip and slide, or a sheet of plastic, or even a regular sprinkler and let the kids run through it. Invite their friends over to play and provide an easy-to-eat treat like popsicles. Decorate your driveway or sidewalk with wet footprints or handprints. Play with squirt guns or spray bottles. Have a water balloon fight. Blow bubbles. Make mud pies. Play in the rain. Wash the car and spray the kids with the hose. Let them get you wet, too.
