I would just simply just keep mentioning that is a great story! That's great that he can tell stories. Encourage him to draw them and you can help him write them down into books...like an author. :)

I also think the daycare needs to step it up to preventing this behavior. I would just keep on and on your daughter about treating others with kindness and respect. We aren't all going to like...

The only reason I've ever taken away toys is if 1) they won't clean them up. 2) they've hurt someone with the toy...sometimes barbies will get thrown at someone LOL. But I try really hard to make it...

They eat what I make or they don't eat. I give them some sides or whatever of things I know they like but I'm also not a short order cook. :) My step mom told me once that no child has ever starved...

I haven't read the responses but at their age (mine is the same) I would say they are testing boundries. I wouldn't bribe, or anything similar. You're right to need rest after caring for three kiddos...

I work in a preschool and I'm part of the carpool teachers for the morning. It would be a really slow down the process if each parent got out of their car. The reason is to have the line move...

Here you would not be able to get past the cut off. They won't let you start them earlier.

But I wouldn't anyway. I would rather deal with a behavior problem from being bored than deal with a...

We have done Saige's last two birthdays outside in May and it is HOT! But we did the last one at a park at 930am. We served breakfast and coffee and oj. By the time it was hot the party was over. :)...

Cassi, CONGRATS! How wonderful!!!!

I'd love to work from home, I think. I really enjoy being a SAHM too. I enjoy making meals for my family. Now, I totally go through phases where I don't want to...

Yes, I taught school. My goal as of now is to go back but at their school. Not sure if that will happen though. I've decided to sub next year at their school to get my foot in the door. Hopefully it...

Poll coming...

Hi, never on anymore. But wanted to see what others thought, for fun I guess. :) If you didn't NEED to work, would you?

I have stayed home from a job I LOVED since May 2007....

Our school starts at 845 but drop off can begin at 825. There is no "play" of any sort in the mornings. The first bell rings at 825, teachers start unloading cars, buses etc and kids enter the...

I taught for five years and never had anything like that happen. The teachers, principal etc FIRST job is the safety of their children. If your daughter isn't in a safe environment then learning will...

I used to teach. The teacher likely can't let you know HOW she handled it at all. Teachers are not typically suppose to talk about other students to other parents AT ALL. I think it's a good rule....

I think some girls are just more taken by that stuff than others. One of mine is very into shoes, clothes, glitz etc. One isn't. I've done nothing different with either girl. We just talk about...

Saige had this. We cut back on fruits, seemed like the acid in them made it worst. I caked destin on her after every change and never used wipes unless she pooped. Those things helped and she outgrew...

No and for several reasons. One is risks involved (surgery, leaking etc) and another reason is cost. Having bigger, better boobs isn't something I'd be willing to throw thousands of dollars at. I'd...

Hi guys! Haven't posted in a while. I try to stay off the computer these days but I have a question. What sort of snacks do your kiddos eat. My girls LOVE to eat. One of mine would eat ALL DAY LONG....

Another important thing to point out is sight words can't (ALL) be sounded out. Sight words are words that should be recognized quickly, by sight. They are words that are seen over and over in books...

I taught first grade and I always liked gift cards too but one of my best gifts ever was a diet coke and a box of my favorite candy. I never told the kids (or parents) what my favorites were but this...

woah, when I said focused on working I didn't mean working parents vs sahm's at all. That part didn't even cross my mind. I mean the kind of "working" where the parents don't leave work at work....

I have a question. :) Something struck me today. Bullying is not new. People have bullied and have bullied since forever. I know it doesn't make it right. I would be heart broken if my children were...

:) Was wondering what some of my creative parents are doing at home this week to celebrate Easter?

I'm going to read from the bible each day and do some kind of hands on activity to help them...

This is so great! I'm going to try and take some steps towards that she suggest on being counter cultural. I...

Hope everyone is doing well! I thought this was a great blog post.
Hope it speaks to you the way it did me :) ...
