It's a shock that we haven't been to the American Girl Store, considering it's pretty close to our home in NYC. My girls have asked to go a few times, but timing just hasn't worked out. I even tried to plan a girl scout trip to the American Girl store in the city, but it just didn't pan out. Luckily, we don't have to actually visit the store ...

Friday Movie Night Feature: Wonder Park
Disclosure: Paramount Video has provided promotional materials for this review. All opinions and experiences are my own. At least once a week we have a family movie night where we camp out in the living room to watch a family friendly movie.

They enjoy home-popped popcorn or sometimes we have a little picnic and eat dinner during ...

Keep Their Lovies Looking New With Lysol Laundry Sanitizer
Raise your hand if your kid has a favorite stuffed animal that goes with them everywhere! My oldest had Lulu - a small purple monkey that has been around for almost a decade! I can't remember where Lulu came from, but I remember thinking that if she ever lost or damaged Lulu, we could easily find a replacement because she was a popular toy. Lulu came with my oldest daughter on every car trip, shopping trip, doctor's visits, and even on fun and ...

Finally, A Child-Friendly Network with Kabillion
Disclosure: This post was brought to you by Kabillion. All opinions are my own. I know I'm not the only parent in the world that cringes when TV commercials come on children's programming that seems to be out of place with the content. There have been numerous occasions where my kids have caught glimpses of horror film commercials while watching their own shows, and I still don't understand how that works! If you're on a child-friendly network ...
A Day Out with Thomas and Percy!
