Girl superheroes with the power of cute

Tangled now on DVD. Let the hair puns begin.
When I took my six-year-old to see the newest Disney movie Tangled last Fall, I think I may have laughed, cried, and enjoyed it more than she did. Of course, I was also 40 weeks pregnant and hopped up on hormones. In honor of its DVD and Blu-Ray release this week, I...

Handy hooks, hold the hammer
Kids seem to require an inordinate amount of Stuff Corralling, and I'm okay with that; but I'm not okay with putting holes in the walls every time I want the kids to stop putting everything they own on the floor because "I don't have anywhere else to put it." Up...

New crib bedding sets from Maclaren – the inside scoop from David Netto himself
