When my oldest daughter was a baby, play dates were and still are very frequent for her and her friends. My younger daughter goes along with whatever we do, but a few months ago I realized all our playdates were never centered around her. She needed to socialize and make friends her own age too. After that I made it a point to host frequent play dates for her with kids around her age while big sister was in school. I saw things in her that were ...

Safe Skincare for Babies From @BabyMantra! #MC #Sponsored #BabyMantra
Like most babies, my girls have sensitive skin. I really don't know a child who's skin isn't sensitive, since their skin can be thinner than that of adult skin, so it's always important to use gentle products on younger skin. When I was pregnant I researched everything that I was putting on my baby's skin. This is where I learned about harmful chemicals and possible carcinogens and hormone disrupters that were lurking in popular bath products. ...
Have Sensitive Teeth? Check Out Crest Sensi-Stop Strips!

My tooth sensitivity can stem from many different things, but what concerns me the most is ...

Both, my 2 and 5 year old love Tiggly Shapes and can benefit from "playing" with them in different ways. My youngest is just learning about colors and shapes, while my ...
