Wordy Wednesday: Ten Tiny Tadpoles

July 25, 2012

Every Wednesday I will post a great book for you and your child to read together.  There will often be a simple craft or project to go with it to further promote reading comprehension, vocabulary, and communication. Ten Tiny Tadpoles is a cute story with fun, three dimensional additions to each page: Click here to purchase. With every page turn, one of the tadpoles disappears. Aren't those the cutest tadpoles you've ever seen?  When I was little I used to scour the pond in my neighborhood, knee deep in muck, catching tadpoles in an empty peanut butter jar my Mom would save for me.  Yuck-o. I'd wait and wait and wait for weeks, checking the pond every day, to see if the tadpoles were ... read more

Weeknight Soup

July 24, 2012

I'm not a soup person. I can't eat soup and call it my "dinner". I never order soup over salad at a restaurant. And I think I've actually made soup at home all of one other time (probably to the disappointment of my husband as he definitely loves soup of all kinds). My cousin Kelly makes a delicious Italian wedding soup, I love chili (which isn't really soup to me), and I make a really good chicken tortilla soup- but that's the extent of my soup repertoire. Until now. I've finally found another soup recipe that I love and I'll share it with you today. This soup is an adapted Giada recipe. It was part of a food network commercial that I saw once this weekend and made a mental note to make ... read more

Healthy Ice Cream Sandwiches (really!)

July 23, 2012

Lilly and I made a pretty fun treat yesterday that I have to share. "Ice cream" sandwiches!  Except, there really isn't any ice cream involved. These little treats are made out of Fig Newton crisps- those flat cookies that are a relatively new addition to the Fig Newton Brand, and pure banana. Yup- the "ice cream" is just frozen blended banana. Did you know that banana's turn into ice cream when frozen and blended? If you haven't tried this little treat, do yourself a favor and give it a go. You won't believe how much the texture is just like ice cream. To make the "ice cream": Slice a few ripe bananas into 1 inch pieces. Freeze them in a little ziplock bag until frozen but not rock ... read more

20 Unique Baby Gifts

Close your eyes and raise your hand if you've ever groaned at the thought of picking out a new baby, baby shower, or congratulations on expecting gift. No peaking. Ok, it's pretty safe to assume all hands are raised.  Even I, lover of all things baby, fret and stress over what to get all these newborns, mothers to be, and even 1, 2, and 3 year old birthday tots. There's so much to chose from, and always the fear of getting a duplicate, too much of something, something unnecessary or, gasp, lame. I've put together a list of 25 unique items, different ideas, and personal favorites that hopefully help give you some great ideas for the next time you need to pick out gifts for the little ... read more
