We recently returned from two amazing, back-to-back vacations. We visited the Dominican Republic, came home for a week, and then jetted off to Florida for our first family visit to Walt Disney World. I have been itching to write about our adventures and especially the awesome products that helped keep us and our kids happy [...]
NO WAY was I EVER going to be a mom who had a kid that used a pacifier. Nope. My first didn’t use one, so why would any babies thereafter? Well…I stand corrected. My second baby is a pacifier baby. Those “paci’s” help her stay calm. Here we are, 10 + months later and not [...]
Congratulations to our winner, commenter number 37, Allyson! So many people comment on my 10 month old’s stunning blue eyes, so, I feel the need to protect those baby blues while we’re spending our days outdoors, underneath the hot, glaring sun. I know how bad that beautiful sun can be for our skin and eyes, [...]

We are in the midst of Water Safety Month and the official 2010 swimming season is right around the corner, so I feel that this is a very important topic to cover. I just found out about Infant Swimming Resource. I watched this video and my chest tightened as my eyes welled up with tears. [...]

I just ordered a Trunki for our preschooler. I heard about this ride-on suitcase a few years ago and really haven’t had a need for one…until now. I’m kind of giddy about it. I kind of want to ride it myself, except, I’m a ‘lil too big for it. Oh well, I’ll live vicariously through [...]
One of the main things on my mind as we prepare for our trips in and out of the country this summer is “How can I make sure my kids are comfortable?“ Because, an uncomfortable kid is a whiny kid and we don’t want whiny kids to spoil a good time. Ouch, did I just [...]
Congratulations to our winner, commenter number 40 – Elliot M.! The nice weather is here (for the most part) and we’re ready to get out of the house. Our Britax Blink stroller arrived just in time. The stroller was sent to us from Britax for review. Upon arrival, there was some assembly required. I snapped [...]
LeapFrog’s Math Adventure to the Moon DVD (MSRP $14.98) was released recently and we were given a copy of it to watch and talk about here on ParentSphere. Well, my 4-1/2 year old completely digs this thirty-eight minute long DVD. She loves the story and she’s so proud of herself for her ability to count [...]
In case you weren’t aware, there’s a product out there called Wonder Bumpers from a company named Go Mama Go Designs. This is not your typical crib bumper. Wonder Bumpers are individual, padded pieces of material that attach to each rung of the crib. They can be purchased in sets of 24 or 38 (MSRP [...]
I’ve played with a lot of toys over the past four years and can honestly tell you that my favorite brand is LeapFrog. I really like the quality of their toys and I’m also very impressed by the technology they use in their products. Not to mention they are an extremely generous company. We recently [...]
