A Busy Mom’s Must-Have Mattress for a Full Night’s Rest
This morning at 5:30 am, my 4-year-old quietly entered our room, walked right up to me and woke me up by physically peeling my eyes open and shrieking, “MAMA! WAKE UP!” Yes, it was as terrible as it sounds. While I can’t do much about how she wakes me up, I can do something about the quality of sleep I get (when I can actually get it).
Jenna BarnettPublished 4 years ago in Families Find out Who Is Concerned About Diaper Pail Review and Why You Should Listen to Them
Diaper pails have many unique capabilities. Luckily, there are many out there that won't break your budget. In addition, they are safety first diaper pails. A diaper pail isn't a purchase to take lightly when you'll use it for a couple of years at least, and using it daily, multiple times every day at that. Or, you may use a diaper pail. Apparently, no one really wants a diaper pail. If you decide to use a diaper pail, you will likely have it around for three or more decades, possibly much longer in the event you have more than one child. If you're in the market for an excellent diaper pail, you truly can't fail with the Ubbi.

Monique GriffaniPublished 5 years ago in FamiliesEight Must-Have Baby Items
So you've just had a baby. You're overjoyed, overtired, and overwhelmed. What exactly do you need? Are you prepared? There is so much information out there to go through, much like this very list, all claiming you need this and that for your baby to thrive. But if there was one thing I want to explain is this... you DO NOT need half of what others have claimed. A few well-made, multi-use products will help you care for and love your baby throughout those emotional first weeks and more. Some of these products I have used with my own family and work as an early childhood and elementary educator, and some of them I have heard about. All of them you should try for yourself and make an individual decision that best fits with your own lifestyle and child.
Kayla BloomPublished 5 years ago in FamiliesWays Nanit Plus Helps Parents Monitor Their Baby's Sleep
Nothing is quite as important for a baby's wellbeing like being able to get a good amount of sleep. A baby that sleeps well is one that is quiet, happy, and is more likely to grow up to be a healthy adult.

Cato ConroyPublished 5 years ago in Families 10 Ways to Get Your Kids to Enjoy Brushing Their Teeth with the Playbrush
If there's one habit that's always been difficult to get kids to take up, it's getting them to brush their teeth at least twice a day. Children just don't feel like doing it; they feel like it's boring and that they have other things they could be doing instead (like eating candy, gum, or popcorn, for example).

Iggy PaulsenPublished 5 years ago in FamiliesI Tried the BlueSmart mia2: The Smart Baby Feeding Monitor That Tracks Temperature, Schedule & More
As a first time parent, I'll admit I'm far from perfect. I thought it would be an easy transition into fatherhood, mostly because my wife makes raising a newborn look fairly rudimentary. I guess that's just what motherly instinct is, because I have had no such luck in making the transition.

Meet Lunii: The Screenless Storytelling Device Helping Kids Develop Vocabulary and Imagination
As a parent of a five year old, it's become increasingly difficult to find ways to entertain my child in a fun, yet somewhat educational way. After hearing my parents preach this for years, I can't believe I'm actually saying it myself, but kids today spend too much time glued to a screen. Back when I was a kid, all my parents really had to worry about was that "evil" television screen, but now there are iPhones, iPads, I this and I that, and my kid wants to see ALL of them.
