Wordless Wednesday: Gratuitous Hand Turkeys (Yup, It’s Thanksgiving!)
Wordless Wednesday: Armed and Dangerous
My husband took this picture of a kid sleeping in a store the other day and sent it to me…mostly because he knew that would get me all riled up and ranting about my dislike for toy weapons.
What do you think? Is this horrible or not such a big deal? (and yes, even this bleeding heart can find the humor in this picture as well 😉
Wordless Wednesday: She Climbed it Herself!
My husband photographed my 2 year old Ladybug climbing this all by herself!
I think my visits to the playground may have just gotten more complicated…;)
Dinosaur Train Pajamas and Free Valentines!
What is it about dinosaurs? I have yet to meet a child who doesn't find them at least a little bit fascinating. They sort of seem to fall into the category of mystical creatures like unicorns, except that the fact that they used to actually roam the earth makes them even cooler.
Unfortunately, for the sensitive child, most of the material out there about dinosaurs is pretty scary. Dinosaur Train, which airs daily on PBS (check your local listings), fits the bill for those kids (or parents!) who would like to enjoy their dinosaurs without any blood, guts and gore. Parents' Choice Recommended series Dinosaur Train, which is perfect for children about 4 to 8 or 9, follows the Prehistoric adventures of Buddy (a T-rex) and his adopted gamily of Pteranodons. An added bonus for the fact loving student? Goofy segments featuring a guy who calls himself Dr. Scott the Paleontologist are chock full of live action lessons (though, in the interest of full disclosure, my son generally chooses to fast forward through those.)
