Motherhood = coffeehood
I am still the world's worst Starbucks orderer. I can't remember whether I order the size before the "iced" and I still get the name of the coffee I love wrong. So of course I'm giggling at this adorable poster that breaks down the basic coffee types with charming...
Teaching the kids a little dice
If you're a Yahtzee fan, but your kids aren't quite old enough to keep track of it all--or you just have trouble keeping track of those darn pads--you'll probably love this awesome new dice game, Tenzi. Plus, it's from a cool little company and I always love...

Wumbers is gr8 for beginner readers
I still remember how much hard work it was for my kids to learn to read, with all the painfully slow sounding-out of words one-by-one. It sometimes seems that kids are so busy trying to figure out what the letters say that they can't even concentrate on the story....

Celebrating Woody Guthrie with 2 perfect CDs
This would have been folk-music legend Woody Guthrie's centennial year. And so we celebrate the truly amazing legacy he left behind. Within the 3,000 song lyrics (wow!) that he wrote, there lies a powerful children's music catalog that speaks directly to the energy...
