Tackling Mt. Laundry with the #1 Pediatrician Recommended Detergent! My little one loves to play! Whether it be skateboarding, surfing or playing on the basketball court at school – she goes full-throttle 110% of the time. I often dream of bottling up some of that energy and sprinkling it on me when I need it (which is most of the time) but I love that she has no regard for what she is wearing or how dirty she might be getting. I can still remember the day I came to pick her up at preschool on a day that I had mistakenly put her in white pants. What a shock (not really) to…

March 14 is National Pi Day! Ways to Have Fun With Math
If you take a few minutes to do a Google search about the most popular subjects in school, you might be surprised to find that math receives an overwhelmingly popular vote. Elementary-aged students seemed to be especially fond of the subject.

Last year, my then-kindergartner went to the library with his class and chose a math book to bring home for the week. During his reading buddy time with a 4th grader, they generally finished their reading early. I asked him…
