How my wife and I discovered our 3YO son gaming the system
As a child I remember gaming the system. The system varied from sneaking into a swimming pool to getting out of chores, but I was a sneaky young man. 3YO Mojo gamed our system for a couple of days, until we got wise to it. Continue reading How my wife and I discovered our 3YO son gaming the system
6 tips on taking small children to a movie theater
We saw Skyfall when it was it theaters, great movie if you haven’t seen it. The theater was packed and seating was limited.

Experiencing life instead of documenting it: A 3 YO reads to our cat
The other week 3 YO Mojo had a tricycle wreck which earned him his first trip to the ER and 6 stitches in his chin. Those stitches had to stay in for 6 days and unknown to him he had something in common with Ripley, one of our cats.

Superman and the Poisoned Planet is a book kids will dig
When I was 7 I started reading Spidey, it was a version of Spider Man that was produced by The Electric Company. The stories were Spider Man lite, the language & art was cartoonish and the entire comic was focused on young readers. While the art may take some of the spotlight, with comic books and heroes it all comes down the reading aspects to make a good book really click.
