Almost every preschooler gets temper tantrums and at this age, they’re much more manipulative about it too. They know exactly what to say to get our goat. I think we’re in need of an anger management book and When I Feel Angry by Cornelia Maude Spelman, illustrated by Nancy Cote might be the […]
FIFA World Cup is still going strong. If your family is as into soccer/football as mine are, maybe you’d be interested in Wicked World Cup by Michael Coleman.
About the book:
This international guide gives you the coolest commentary on the brilliant Brazilians, the awesome Argentinians, the invincible Italians and the fantastic French. Plus discover the […]
I’ve decided to make a bigger deal out of Father’s Day than Mother’s Day because it truly gets less attention. A Perfect Father’s Day is for those deserving fathers whose kids could use a little reminding and vice versa.
An Amazon reader review:
I gave this book to my father for father’s day. It tells the […]
A while ago, I raved about books published by Dorling Kindersley (DK). After moving to London in January, I’ve discovered another children’s book publisher that impresses me - Usborne. At the library and bookstore, their That’s Not My… series of books always catches my son’s attention even though they’re a little too young […]
My son’s latest craze is learning the different bones in his body. He’s absolutely fascinated by skeletons especially after we visited the amazing London Natural History Museum and saw dinosaur bones, fossils, and human skeletons on display.
My Bodyworks: Songs About Your Bones, Muscles, Heart And More! by Jane Schoenberg, Steven Schoenberg, and Cynthia Fisher […]

From the book description:
When […]
Every day after my son gets out of nursery school, we walk past the kindergarteners’ playground. He’ll be there in just a few months; moving from a half day of school to a full day. I am both sad and eager for him to start.
To help us transition, i’ll do my […]
Spring days are rather showery here in London so even if I’ve got the idea to go out with my kiddo in the afternoon after school, a sudden thunderstorm will come up and keep us home. We still sometimes go out in the rain and run around but I’m sure his grandparents would frown […]
I’m a big fan of book publisher Dorling Kindersley also known simply as DK. This is a book I’m definitely going to get because I’ve been trying to involve my son in cooking thinking it might entice him to eat more and be less picky.
He washes then cuts vegetables with plastic knives […]
Usually, on Saturdays, I pick one book that talks about an experience kids might go through, e.g., sharing, travelling, or being in danger. This week, I was looking for a book about whining and came across another list of children’s books you’ll NEVER see. There was one for whining: Whining, Kicking and Crying […]
Chatting about kids’ toys, games, books, and just fun stuff to do.
