I'm a little nervous about this summer too. DD1 is just finishing up full day Kindergarten and school is so busy and structured that she is often bored when home. I've set up a few activities for...

My daughter is in K and is always talking about clubs. I keep asking her if she includes everyone if the boys are allowed to play in their club, etc. I would just keep talking to her about how it...

This was my Pedi's recommendation. Start introducing cow's milk at 9 months so that they would be transitioned to whole milk by their first birthday.

I totally understand. Mine is 3 1/2 and not nursing but I'm with her 24/7 now that she's not napping much and in the middle of a nasty sleep strike. HUGS... wish I had an answer for both of us.

I just had mine resized at the beginning of the year. My youngest is 3 1/2. I took my rings off when I was pregnant with her. Nursed her for a year and held on to 5-10 lbs of weight. So, when I...

I made sure to teach DD1 how to do it before she went to Kindergarten... also about 6 weeks before she turned 5. DD2 (3 1/2) was doing it on her own and I made her stop. She did not do a good...

Thanks for all of the replies.


I know this is our biggest problem, but with no sleep we feel like we have to give in just to get some rest. So, I know we need to come up with a strategy and...

My 3 1/2 year old has really become quite challenging and I am in need of some advice. I've already requested 123 Magic from the library as well as the No Cry Sleep Solution for Toddlers and...

Thanks for the recommendation... will pick this up at the library tomorrow!

OMG... I am having the hardest time with my 3 1/2 year old right now. I can not get her to stay in her room at all. It's a nightmare at the moment. We try and try to get her to go to bed in her...

Still thinking of you. Hope she is starting to feel better.

Thinking of you... and praying for your little girl!

:hugs:

Both girls will have 2 weeks of swim class (30 minutes each day), but they aren't at the same time so we will be at the pool for an hour and a half each day of those 2 weeks. Then we have a family...

The only other thing that I do is make the quiet play time at a consistent time every day. For us it is after lunch for the hour before DD1 gets home from school. I sometimes call it "mommy's rest...

IDK, I might move her since she will be going there 1/2 day when Kindergarten starts anyway... right?!? So, it might be a chance for her to get adjusted to the new daycare before having to get used...

Glad her test results were normal. DD2 is 3 1/2 and we are having such a hard time with transitioning to no nap for her. This is new territory as DD1 napped until the day she went to Kindergarten. ...

Definitely stalking this thread. Mine are 5 1/2 and 3 1/2 and right now they are not very good at helping around the house. We often have to ask them a million time to clean up or put things their...

We eat meals at the table, but snacks are all over. It does drive DH batty, but like you said I am the one that cleans it all up.

My DH is gone one night a week from right after dinner until after the kids are asleep and then every Sunday morning from 10-1... which used to be right at nap time. When the kids were younger it...

7:30 is bedtime for my 5.5 year old and 3.5 year old. They were going to bed later... like 8:30-9:00 before DD1 started Kindergarten in the fall. We had to move up bedtime because she needs to be...

Oh my! How awful! Just wanted to give some HUGS!

Both of my kids were given popcorn as snacks in preschool/kindergarten. It was after that that I decided to let them eat it more often at home so I could make sure they knew they had to chew it...

I would have flipped! I actually got on DH's case yesterday for letting the girls play in the car when he got home from work. We were standing right there... "discussing" it, but still. I do not...

I agree that the natural consequence of not being able to play a game because you had to look for the glasses is enough. Especially since it has already happened and waiting until after dinner might...
