Daddy Mojo reviews: LeapFrog Fridge Phonics Alphabet Set
We’re a little hesitant to embrace some educational toys. Call us a little gun shy, but it seems like some manufacturers will slap the alphabet on a toy, call it educational and then watch parent purchase it. A friend of ours gave us the heads up on LeapFrog’s Fridge Phonics. Continue reading Daddy Mojo reviews: LeapFrog Fridge Phonics Alphabet Set
Baby shower gift ideas to get the Dad involved
Baby shower gift ideas to get the Dad involved sounds like a challenge akin to a camel fitting through the eye of a needle. Husbands who (mistakenly) attended one of their wedding showers may be under the impression that baby showers are as fraught with dangerously laced estrogen.

Australian bullying wrap up and tough love from dad
It bothers me when a youth does something criminal and then the media talk to the neighbors or parents. “Well, they were such a nice young child, it just doesn’t seem like something that they would do”, the parent would say. It doesn’t matter the crime, the statement from the parent is always the same.
That is the part that bothers me. The parent saying such a stereotypical halfhearted non apology doesn’t’ do anything to help the youth, victim or family. I’ve long waited for a parent to step up and say something along the lines of ‘my child screwed up and they’ll pay the consequences’. A dad in Ipswich, Australia has just done the next best thing by driving them to the police station after he caught his two children bullying a younger one.

Mattel’s Clawdeen Wolf doll causes concern for parents
Toddler Mojo learned that he can close his eyes without going to sleep. He’s started squinting, then laughing, squinting his eyes, closing them and then falling on the floor laughing with his eyes closed. Some news stories make us want to close our eyes and this is one of them.
Clawdeen Wolf is a new entry in Mattel’s hugely popular Monster High doll line. Clawdeen Wolf looks like a stripper, granted that’s not too different from the Bratz dolls. Continue reading Mattel’s Clawdeen Wolf doll causes concern for parents
Parenting tips from a SAHD-Snacks
My wife and I are very lucky to have a child that loves and (has so far) stuck to a schedule. He wakes up at the same time, has breakfast, a snack, lunch, nap, dinner, bath and goes to bed each day within ten minutes every day. It requires a bit of timing and patience, but it allows us to have a nice dinner together and know what to expect during the day with a 17 month old toddler.
