HOW WE TEACH OUR KIDS HOW TO RIDE THEIR BIKES

By Caitlin Campbell - Posted May 17, 2012

This month is bike safety month. As we think about bicycle safety I also started thinking about the method that we’ve used to teach our children how to ride their bikes. Currently we have three girls at home on three different stages of bikes. Our 3 year old is on a tricycle (that she has [...]

How to Organize a Family Fun Night (Your Teens Won’t Hate)

By Kimberly Danger - Posted May 16, 2012

If you’ve got a teen in your household, you know that family fun often becomes more challenging as your kids get older. Friends become a more central part of their lives and parents are often viewed as an obstacle to having fun rather than a source of it. However, during this time of their lives [...]

There Are No Age Limits in Teaching Kids to Ride a Bike

By Liz Thompson - Posted May 14, 2012

CONFESSION: My children never learned how to ride a bike and not for the lack of our trying to teach them, either. In fact, my two oldest girls had pretty little pink bicycles, each with multi-colored streamers hanging from the handle bars and personalized license plates which sat in the garage gathering dust, until we [...]

Celebrating a Stress-Free Mother’s Day

By Liz Thompson - Posted May 14, 2012

Celebrating Mother’s Day With My Family

By Jodi Grundig - Posted May 10, 2012

Celebrating National Bike Month

By Jodi Grundig - Posted May 8, 2012

The weather here in the Northeast has started to improve, and my kids have been playing outside almost every day after school. Although my children are five and seven, neither one has been too successful riding their bike. This year, we made it a goal to get both of them riding without training wheels before [...]

ORGANIZING A FAMILY FUN NIGHT WITH THE KIDS – THIS IS HOW WE DO IT!

By Lamar and Ronnie Tyler - Posted May 4, 2012

When I think about organizing a family fun night with our three young daughters the first thing that comes to mind is music. For some reason even more specifically I’m thinking of Montell Jordan’s 90’s hit, “This is how we do it”. Music comes to mind because it’s a huge factor of fun nights in [...]

By Marianne Szymanski - Posted May 1, 2012

Eleanor Abbott, who was recovering from polio, created the CANDY LAND Game as a lighthearted activity to entertain children affected by the disease.
