This is a really cute book, reminiscent of Eric Carle’sFrom Head to Toe, but featuring children instead of animals. It begins by asking who has different body parts (wiggle-waggle toes, hokey-pokey heads, and big, bold bottoms), and then asks the kids to move each part in different w...
As any parent can attest to, videos for kids to watch on YouTube that are fun, educational,anddon't drive you up a wall can be a challenge. That's why it's nice to have a heavy rotation of kids YouTube channels in your back pocket — so when the idea of listening to the kid ...
A book that comes to mind is Eric Carle’s Head to Toe.“I am an elephant, and I stomp my foot. Can you do it?” could turn into “I am a bunny, and I wiggle my nose. Can you do it?” They could follow with their finger to know when to add their choice of words. ...

wiggle like caterpillars on tummy around the circle to the next mat to pick the next fruit (pears). Repeat for the rest of the fruits (plums, strawberries & oranges) cake (we did a bake the cake sequence similar to what I used for baking a pie in Apple Farmer Annie) ice cream scoops...
Kidecalsrecently contacted me with an offer to try out a set of their dishwasher, washing machine, and dryer safe labels. I let them know that they were up against some stiff competition since I’ve been a huge fan ofMabel’s Labelsfor many years. They were up for the challenge so I ...
We watched “Aliens” anyway. It went over well.The biggest challenge was dissuading kids from trying to predict every single thing that was going to happen. This is a generation of talkers. They have to comment on everything. No thought can go unexpressed. Maybe this was true when I wa...
