It's My Thing: Fruit Shoot and Martial Arts
While most parents are at the soccer field or at the baseball field, we are at a dojo. Even though our sport lasts all year, we do enjoy the comfort of a climate controlled building at which to watch our children in their sport. Between our three kids, two take karate and all three take ju jitsu. My husband and I both take tai chi, so I guess …

Valentine's Day Books for Kids
Valentine's Day is coming! My husband and I aren't big on Valentine's Day for each other. We used to go out and have a nice dinner and date, but stopped that when we had kids. Sometimes he will surprise me with roses, but usually we just tell each other Happy Valentine's Day and be done with it. The kids, however, do love Valen…

Advent Calendars For Kids
When I was a kid, I had a plain calendar that had pockets to move a little stuffed animal. One year, I had one with chocolate inside each little box. I still remember just how nasty the chocolate was, but I was thrilled that it was chocolate! My kids love having a fun advent calendar each year. Of course, Christmas is their favorite time of …

Autism iPad App Review Behaviors With Friends
I was compensated for this post by teach2talk. As always, all opinions are my own.
Getting an iPad was one of the best purchases we made for our kids, especially our two boys with autism. They've all learned so much about geography, the human body, animals, math, and even social skills.
