Inspirational Mom :: Linda Sadeghi of The CAMP and The LAB Anti-Mall
If you are local, you have probably visited The CAMP or The Lab Anti-Mall in Costa Mesa. I had heard about The Lab years ago from my friend who is pretty on top of trends and she and I would visit the shops there a couple times a month – pre-kids! But now with our kids in-tow, we have enjoyed lunch over there as well. I really like that both The CAMP and The LAB offer a variety of shops such as Urband Outfitters and some of the best restaurants in town! My favorite breakfast place, The Old Vine, is located at the backend of The CAMP and I…

Hearing Health Foundation On Path to Finding Cure for Hearing Loss
As a mom, you want what’s best for your child. But imagine seeing your child suffer from hearing loss, with no cure in sight and unable to comfort them. For many moms this is a real life struggle. In fact, in the US, three out of every 1,000 children are born deaf or hard-of-hearing. My own father battled with hearing loss most of his adult life. He started going deaf in his early twenties until it progressed to almost 90% hearing loss in one ear and 95% in the other ear. He was fortunate to be able to get the cochulear earplant surgery but he was still not able to…

Science Fair Inspiration Movies and Crafts
My little one has always love doing science projects. In fact, her favorite gift she received at her 5th birthday party was a Science Kit her friend gave to her – knowing full well we had a little scientist on our hands! She will spend hours in the backyard with these science kits and loves making her creations. They don’t always come out the way she wants them to but I like that she is so enthralled with making her creations. This month, as part of the Netflix Stream Team, they have provided some movies you can stream to encourage your budding scientists! They also provided some crafts…

PBS Kids Writers Contest Encourages Creative Writing
Many of you know that I am a children’s picture book author. I can even claim that I am an award-winning author as my first two books, Penelope the Purple Pirate and Gerry the Giraffe have both won awards. I mention this is because many people assume I majored in English since I write children’s books or in Journalism since I founded and write daily for dandelion moms. I actually studied Business Administration and Health Science in college and went on to study Human Nutrition at The University of Bridgeport. The reason I am writing about this is because I think it is important to stress that if you have…
