All I Want for Mother’s Day….
This Mother’s Day, I don’t want a nice brunch or a basket of flowers or some construction paper card with a finger paint hand print on it. No. I want the children to go to bed with only one story and a kiss, just like my imaginary children did before I got the real ones.
Choo Choo Chow
April 25, 2011
This is no joke: a Brio breakfast tray. Makes you wonder if it’s intended for kids or grownups. It’s 19 euros which is like, what? $30?
iStorytime for a Rainy Day
April 7, 2011
when I came across this sweet little new iBook called “My Daddy” by a local New Jersey dad, I just couldn’t let it go without a mention, especially since we’re drenched in rain and today seems like just the greatest day to curl up with a book and the kids.
Fun Beyond the Funplex
February 24, 2011
The other day we brought one of our kids to a party at Funplex on Route 10 in Hanover, NJ. Funplex is every child’s fantasy — think Chucky Cheese on Steroids. Just when we thought it would be a nightmare to bring all four of our kids in there (we’d never get them out!), I did a bit of research to see what else was in the area as an alternate plan for my other kids.
A World of Food in a Day
January 27, 2011
What would you say if I told you that you could sample a bevy of authentic Spanish Food products from an exclusive importer and distributor, purchase those products if you like, and then shop at an incredibly reasonable Asian Food store? Would I be enticing you further if I told you that you could bring your kids and expose them to these two distinct cultures with only a few minutes distance between them? Would it be the icing on the cake to tell you that you could then feast at a delicious and family friendly Vietnamese restaurant in the same plaza or a Thai one down the street? Well, this is your lucky day.
A Day In: New Jersey Children’s Museum

Winter Day Trip: Lambertville
December 23, 2010
Here’s one way to keep the cabin fever at bay during the holiday break: pack the kids in the car and head to Lambertville, NJ for the day. It’s definitely worth the hour’s drive as there are plenty of winter activities to keep you warm and the kids entertained.

It’s holiday shopping time but we still need to eat, right? Well, if your holiday shopping list takes you through Clifton, there are some delicious options for lunch (and groceries) while you’re there.
Oh Baby! Fabulous Photos (Dedicated Post)
December 9, 2010
Let’s face it, the first weeks of life aren’t exactly the most attractive for a baby. But kids’ photographer Ron Holtz has found a way to capture the reason why we just can’t stop gazing at those tiny little creatures, even if they are sort of funny looking.

November 18, 2010
