One end of the belt snaps around a front belt loop on the pants to keep it in place, and then wraps around and secures in the front with Velcro. http://www.myselfbelts.com/ There are lots of

Do you let your child win?

2010-03-13T15:20:00.000-05:00

Do you let your child win? And is letting your child win considered an act of encouragement? I don't know if there's a right or wrong answer. Ask two people and you'll get three opinions. Here's mine... One of our house rules is Never Lie, so I'm of the opinion that letting a child win is, in fact, lying. We started out by sticking with games that were more about luck than skill. Candy Land,

This article from the University of Missiouri was so wonderful I just had to post it.

Kindergarten Click

2010-02-05T02:08:00.000-05:00

This week, I had a GPM (good parenting moment) with my 5 year old daughter. Seems even in kindergarten, there are social 'clicks'. At the moment, my daughter feels like odd man out. The fact is, last year, if there was a pre-school prom, Molly would have been the queen. She was the kid that everyone else wants to sit next to. Now, just a year later, she's trying to break into a new group of

The Little Engine That Could

I can do it!

2010-01-27T14:19:00.000-05:00

"I can do it myself!" my daughter huffs as I'm trying to help her get dressed. This has become the mantra in our house. It seems like no matter what she's doing, she's eager to prove herself. Sometimes she can do it (although maybe not all her teeth get brushed) and sometimes she can't (the skill of squeezing toothpaste onto a toothbrush continues to elude her), but more and more, she wants to

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlT5tHw6JrEWe were thrilled that The Doctors chose to review EZ Sox yesterday morning. Too bad the little 3 year old boy that was supposed to try them got stage fright. Oh well. We're still so happy to have their endorsement. Enjoy...

Fun Websites for Kids under 6

My daughter has been playing on the computer since she was 3. Now, just past her 5th birthday, she's really self sufficient on the computer and her reading is far advanced to those in her kindergarten class. I can't attribute that only to computer time, but I personally think the combination of books and computers is great. Her hand eye coordination is developed, and so is her basic

Everyday things to be proud of

2010-01-01T15:45:00.002-05:00

Happy New Year. I made a list of some of the everyday things my five year old does for which I am proud and grateful. 1. Saying Please, Thank You and Excuse Me. It's easy to take this for granted if your child does it all the time, but occassionally praising good manners reinforces positive behavior. 2. Offering to help clean or cook. It may be faster to do things ourselves rather

Encouragement

2009-12-16T22:55:00.000-05:00

Encouragement is the act of giving hope or support to someone. I try to do that everyday as often as possible. Sometimes it's not so easy. But other times, there are moments when I say or do the right thing at the right moment. You know what I'm talking about...that moment your child shifts from tears to laughter because of something you've said or done. I call that "a good parenting moment"

Story of a Great Idea...

2009-12-10T15:19:00.000-05:00

Once upon a time, there lived a couple and their young son, H. H was 3 but he was quick to tell you that he was really 3 and a half! The couple was very proud of their boy. He was sweet and smart and liked to learn new things. One day, the couple decided it was time for H to learn to dress himself. They started by teaching him to put on pants, then his shirt. And last but not least, they
