The Angry Birds Movie out on May 20th!
When Angry Birds game came out a few years back our family would spend hours playing it together on the iPad. My daughter was about four years old and we had a blast taking turns trying to move through the different levels. We really liked the Halloween Angry Birds and Star Wars version. We can’t wait to see the movie this week and finally find out WHY the birds are so angry! What happened between the pigs and birds? I hope the movie answers this and more because let me tell you we’ve wanted to know for a long time! The movie takes us to an island populated entirely by…

Inspiring New Family Holiday Traditions
This quote by the ever so wise Dr. Seuss is one of my favorites! For me, the holidays represents a time to show those we care about that we are thinking of them. And this can be done with a handwritten holiday card, a present that you thought would be just right for them or spending time together. It really isn’t about how much money you spend but more the thought that goes into letting them know you are thinking of them! Spending quality time together really is what it is all about don’t you think?! What are some family traditions in your home? We really love family movie night,…

Tips for Raising a Reader
Next week I will be speaking to parents at a preschool about the benefits of reading aloud to your children, so I thought this would be a good time to write about raising readers. I think back to when my son was about 6 months old. How I would hold him and read board books in the rocking chair. He would have let me read to him all day. Today, he is a 7-year old book-aholic who reads everything he can get his hands on. I like to think that reading consistently to him beginning at an early age helped guide him to that path. Reading to young children, including…

Interview with some Disney Dreamers and Innovators
If I am feeling a little down I know if I take a local trip to Disneyland with my daughter it will immediately cheer me up.
