I get a lot of emails. Believe me, I&rsquo;m not complaining. I love hearing from moms across the country &ndash; and around the world. But starting my day with 2,204 new emails can be overwhelming (just a tad!). In an attempt to cut back on the number of emails which have to wait for replies, the following is a list of 20 of the most common questions asked. If you don&rsquo;t see the answer to your question, click <a href=\"communicate/savvy_mommy.html\">here</a> to contact me. (And yes, these are all actually 20 questions or comments received more than once. For some, I can&rsquo;t believe it either.) </p><p><strong>1. Where are you located?</strong><br />New York&hellip; more specifically, Manhattan. Oh, I&rsquo;m sorry were you trying to send me something? Click <a href=\"communicate/submit_a_product_for_review.html\">here</a> for the only address where you can send me product. I live and work in Manhattan. Neither my home nor my office address is published information. Trust me, whatever you are sending is best sent to the address listed <a href=\"communicate/submit_a_product_for_review.html\">here</a>. You can always send me an <a href=\"communicate/savvy_mommy.html\">email</a> giving me a heads up if you&#39;ve sent me a creme brulee. Mmmmm.... dessert. Oh sorry. Back to my address. Seriously, just send things <a href=\"communicate/submit_a_product_for_review.html\">here</a>. </p><p><strong>2. But I was just online at (insert any search engine /media list database name) and saw a different address when I looked you up.</strong><br />Savvy Mommy is almost six years old. Chances are you could have found an old address from when it was just started. There are no forwarding orders on any office address I may have had so please do not send products to those addresses since I will not receive them and I won&#39;t be notified anything was sent to that old address. If you thought it was a good idea to send products for review to one of those old addresses, I can assure you I have not received it and it should be considered lost. Sorry.&nbsp;I also suggest you do not mail&nbsp;samples in my name to any of the 400 television stations I appear on. So update your mailing lists to the address listed <a href=\"communicate/submit_a_product_for_review.html\">here</a>. It doesn&#39;t matter what Vocus, Bacon&#39;s or Cision lists say, trust me those listings are not correct.</p><p><strong>3.&nbsp;We&#39;d like to hire you to be our mom spokesperson for television segments as part of an SMT, multi city media tour or radio news release (RNR) or to be a family lifestyle expert for our&nbsp;expert advisory panel.</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#39;m happy to hear you are considering me for this opportunity. Thank you!&nbsp; Please <a href=\"communicate/savvy_mommy.html\">email</a>&nbsp;me. </p><p><strong>4. What does &quot;100% Advertorial Free Since 2002&quot; mean?</strong><br />Since I started SavvyMommy.com, I have written the reviews you read on the site without being paid by businesses (or extremely large corporations) hoping that cash would&nbsp;guarantee my kudos. While I don&#39;t knock mom blog editors who do accept money in order to write editorials on their site -- which yes, are then called advertorials -- I do believe that route is not right for me.&nbsp; And I also don&#39;t believe its right to disguise advertorial reviews as editorial ones. Moms deserve better.</p><p><strong>5. Do you work from home? Are you a work at home mom? A stay at home mom?</strong><br />Ahh, the answer&nbsp;to&nbsp;the million dollar question. I&rsquo;m in my office all the way downtown three business days a week. The other days I&rsquo;m either working from home on the Upper East Side or from a hotel room since I am always traveling to appear on television shows across the country. (Yes, I really do appear live in-studio in places like Phoenix or Albany -- why not!?) On the days I work from home, I get to have lunch with my children if they are home from school. Yum. Bunny Pasta for everyone. There are times my children travel with me for a television segment but until recently only my son Luke was a veteran of live television.&nbsp; Now all three of my children have been in a television segment. </p><p><strong>6. Who are the designers you wear in the television segments I see you on?</strong><br />I get this question so much, I&rsquo;m in the process of creating a page so everyone can easily find what I wear. But just a quick answer&hellip; All jewelry besides my earrings.. especially my necklaces are from Moon River Pearls. And clothing comes from stores including: <a href=\"http://www.lucy.com/\" target=\"_blank\">lucy</a>, Calypso, BCBG, Betsey Johnson, Banana Republic and gap. Throughout my pregnancy&nbsp;with Harrison, I wore Maternal America, momzee and Isabella Oliver. (I&rsquo;ll update this answer when the page is up.) </p><p><strong>7. Will you speak at my mommy group, visit my book club, talk to expectant moms in our organization? By the way, we are located 20 states away from you.</strong> Sure! Wait, I just heard Laura cringe. Laura handles my schedule and she doesn&rsquo;t like when I say yes because it usually conflicts with other appointments she&rsquo;s scheduled or with my travel schedule. I would love to attend your event and would be delighted to speak but I have to check my schedule. While I do not publish my travel schedule, there may be a chance I will be in your town so feel free to email your request <a href=\"communicate/savvy_mommy.html\">here</a>&hellip;. Even if you are 20 states away from where I live. </p><p><strong>8. I&rsquo;d like to invite you to my book launch party, media lunch, charity event or store opening. Would you please stop by my booth at ABC Expo/Kids Show? Where should I send the invite or tickets?</strong><br />Click <a href=\"communicate/submit_a_product_for_review.html\">here</a> for the mailing address or <a href=\"communicate/savvy_mommy.html\">here</a> to email the invite. </p><p><strong>9. I represent XYZ hotel/resort and would like to invite you and your children to experience our property.</strong><br />How lovely. But unfortunately my schedule doesn&rsquo;t allow for me to make very many media visits outside of Manhattan with or without my children. I appreciate the offer and suggest you <a href=\"communicate/savvy_mommy.html\">email</a> me to see if I have a block of time coming up which would allow me to visit your property&nbsp;as part of a&nbsp;press trip. </p><p><strong>10. I represent XYZ hotel/resort and would like to create a contest for some of your site visitors to win a stay at our hotel. I know your moms would love our resort.<br /></strong>Fantastic. They will be thrilled. Send the information to this <a href=\"communicate/savvy_mommy.html\">email</a>. </p><p><strong>11. How can I get a copy of the segment you did that included my company/my client? Do you know how many viewers watch XYZ show when you appeared?</strong><br />Unfortunately I do not sell copies of the television segments I do each week. There are several national clipping services out there and all of them can obtain the clip for you whether my segment was local or national. They can also provide you with numbers of how many viewers watched the show and the approximate media value. Please note: I am not affiliated with any of them and I do not ask them to contact any of the brands featured in my television segments.</p><p><strong>12. Don&rsquo;t you think you are just the perfect mother!</strong><br />Actually I don&rsquo;t. My daughter is five years old and everyday I learn something new. I&rsquo;ve never claimed to know everything. I just use common sense every day to raise my children and tried to do the same throughout my pregnancy. </p><p><strong>13. Can we pay you to include our product in one of your upcoming television segments?</strong><br />No. Never. No way. You can&rsquo;t pay to be included in an upcoming television segment I am appearing on or in an editorial I am writing on my site. But you can pay to include your product in the As Seen On listing on the Savvy Mommy website if you were chosen for a television segment. You can see an example As Seen On listing by clicking <a href=\"as_seen_on/the_ultimate_fathers_day_gift_guide.html\">here</a>. As Seen On listings allow for your product to be easily found after they are seen by the viewers of various shows I appear on. </p><p><strong>14. Hi Valerie, I&rsquo;m a friend of (insert one of my acquaintances&rsquo; names) and I&rsquo;d love to be on your site.</strong> Click <a href=\"communicate/submit_a_product_for_review.html\">here</a> for the only address where you can send me product samples and media information. Thanks, Victoria. </p><p><strong>15. Veronica, Can I send&nbsp;Luke a onesie and burp cloth from my new company?<br /></strong>My son Luke is&nbsp;three and a half&nbsp;years old, he no longer uses burp cloths but if you want to send it to my newborn son Harrison, feel free to do so. Love, Victoria </p><p><strong>16. Hey Vicki, would you write a blurb for my book if I sent you a galley or ARC?<br /></strong>I am happy to write a blurb for your book provided the book could be read on a flight and you give me at least a week&rsquo;s time to do so. Click <a href=\"communicate/submit_a_product_for_review.html\">here</a> for the address where you can send me a review copy, galley or ARC of your book. The same goes for authors interested in me providing them with a book review. Thanks from Victoria. </p><p><strong>17. You wrote a blurb after reading a galley / ARC for my book, what should you be attributed as?</strong><br />That&rsquo;s up to you entirely, some people have used &ldquo;Savvy Mommy Victoria Pericon, author of Mommy Land&rdquo; while others liked &ldquo;Victoria Pericon, author and national television correspondent&rdquo; I&#39;ve also seen &quot;Victoria Pericon, editor of Savvy Mommy magazine (<a href=\"/\">www.savvymommy.com</a>)&quot; </p><p><strong>18. Your last name is Pericon. Are you related to Dr. Nicholas Perricone? My last name is also Pericon and I am researching my genealogy, please tell me what you know about your last name.</strong><br />I am not his ex-wife and I am not related to Dr. Perricone. And if you look closely, you will notice that our last names aren&rsquo;t even spelled the same way. Pericon is the last name of my second husband who is the father of my three children. Since it is not the last name I had at birth, I don&#39;t know very much about its origin, sorry. </p><p><strong>19. I like your mommy blog. Can I link to you? Would you link to me?</strong><br />Just to clear up some confusion, Savvy Mommy is not a blog. For four years I only had a website called Savvy Mommy. In 2006, I started a blog called <a href=\"http://www.veepveep.com\">Veep Veep</a>. And if you are interested, you can find it, by clicking <a href=\"blog/\">here</a>. Of course you can link to my website and/or blog. </p><p><strong>20. Who takes care of your kids if you are always traveling to do television shows?</strong><br />One word. Family. More specifically &ndash; Nana. I don&rsquo;t believe in employing people to take care of my children or leaving them in a day care center when I have extremely willing and able family members who want to spend time with my children. When they aren&#39;t in school, which is rare because Natalie and Luke go to school five days a week -- my children are visiting various family members. I understand many people aren&rsquo;t lucky enough to have family close by who want to take care of their grandchildren when the parents are out of town. Everyone has to make a choice. This is mine. </p><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">IMPORTANT BONUS QUESTION</span></strong> </p><p><strong>21. Your children look nothing like you. Are they really yours?</strong><br />Yes. They are my biological children. I was there for the birth of both of them after I personally carried them for 40 weeks each (and 41 weeks in the case of Harrison). But if I did adopt them, I would still consider them mine. </p>','',1,7,0,13,'2006-09-24 12:32:19',63,'','2008-10-02 01:50:35',63,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2006-09-24 12:23:23','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','pageclass_sfx=\nback_button=\nitem_title=1\nlink_titles=\nintrotext=1\nsection=0\nsection_link=0\ncategory=1\ncategory_link=0\nrating=\nauthor=\ncreatedate=\nmodifydate=\npdf=\nprint=\nemail=\nkeyref=\ndocbook_type=',17,0,8,'','',0,24792),(159,'The Cupcake Courier - Carrying Culinary Delights','The Cupcake Courier Carrying Culinary Delights','<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"images/stories/featured_reviews/cupcake-courier-logo.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"cupcake-courier-logo\" title=\"cupcake-courier-logo\" width=\"200\" height=\"92\" align=\"left\" /><img class=\"right\" src=\"images/stories/featured_reviews/cupcake_courier.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"cupcake_courier\" title=\"cupcake_courier\" width=\"160\" height=\"153\" align=\"right\" />Whether the secret to your bake sale\r\nbestseller is the magical workforce behind the coveted <u><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0684859106/islandtravela-20\">Magnolia\r\nBakery</a></u> or just a little time well spent with the\r\nlatest <u><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0971793565/islandtravela-20\">Clare\r\nCrespo</a></u> tome; the resulting works of art need a safe\r\nway to get to their final destination - a very happy tummy!\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<a href=\"http://www.cupcakecourier.com/\">The\r\nCupcake Courier</a>, a stylish patent pending rectangular\r\nplastic container, is a handy way to securely transport up to three\r\ndozen of your favorite butter cream cupcakes without having to worry\r\nabout finding a culinary catastrophe upon your arrival.\r\n</p>\r\n','<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"images/stories/featured_reviews/cupcake_courier2.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"cupcake_courier2\" title=\"cupcake_courier2\" width=\"240\" height=\"158\" align=\"left\" />Jennifer Gunn, the Pasadena, California\r\nmom inventor behind this ingenious problem solver, made plenty of\r\ncupcakes for parties but needed a practical system to carry and store\r\nher delicious deliveries.

What led you to create this one-day potty training technique?</strong>\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nFrankly, I was desperate. My son had landed on the dreaded &quot;Do Not Promote&quot; list barring him\r\ngraduation from nursery school to preschool. Like most\r\npreschools in the US, Spencer&#39;s had a rule that children could not\r\nenroll until they were potty trained. In other words: No\r\npotty, no preschool. All my attempts to potty train him were\r\nfailing miserably. I bribed him with treats, stickers, and\r\ntoys. I bought different potty chairs, thinking he&#39;d like one over\r\nthe other. But in the end, nothing was working and he was\r\nbecoming hostile and refusing to sit and even try. When I&#39;d\r\nsay, &quot;Come on honey, let&#39;s sit and try to go pee-pee on the\r\npotty. He&#39;d always reply, I don&#39;t want to or I don&#39;t need\r\nto, I&#39;ll go in 5 minutes or, maybe I try tomorrow.&quot;\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nAs the deadline for preschool\r\nenrollment loomed, I became <em>more</em> and <em>more</em>\r\ndesperate. To make matter worse, all of my son&#39;s little potty\r\ntrained friends were being promoted to preschool, and he was about to\r\nbe left behind--all because he couldn&#39;t  go to the bathroom by\r\nhimself. The clock was ticking and I needed a shortcut--fast. \r\nThe time for drastic action was at hand!\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<strong>2. How did you get the idea to write this book?</strong>\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"right\" src=\"images/stories/savvy_mommy_7/pottytrainyourchildinjuston.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"pottytrainyourchildinjuston\" title=\"Potty Train Your Child in Just One Day\" width=\"159\" height=\"240\" align=\"right\" />Necessity is the Mother of Invention. I had read one of the ways parents could teach a toddler to use the\r\npotty was to first guide a potty training doll or stuffed animal to\r\nuse the potty. The question was, how could I get him to do this\r\nin a way that would be fun for both of us? I had already tried\r\nbribes and treats, so I knew I had to come up with an incentive that\r\nhe would think was awesome.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nAnd then it occurred to me like a flash of lightening; a party! All I had to do was say the word\r\n&quot;party&quot; and Spencer&#39;s eyes would light up. I would\r\nplan an all day party for the specific purpose of potty training him.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nKids love parties! In\r\nToddler-Speak, a party means fun, games,cake, candy, presents and\r\nprizes. For a two- or three- year-old, it doesn&#39;t get any\r\nbetter than that. In Mom-Speak, a party is a fun way to\r\nmotivate a child to learn a new behavior--in this case using the\r\ntoilet. Giving a toddler motivation is critical to a parents\r\nsuccess. Because when it comes to potty training, most kids\r\nhave absolutely no incentive--none. And when you look at it\r\nfrom there perspective, why would they? Life experience has\r\nproven that it&#39;s fast, easy and convenient to go in their diapers.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<strong>3. What are your own personal\r\nexperiences with potty training?</strong>\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nI have had thousands of parents potty\r\ntrain their child in one day. But I also have a lot of parents\r\ncustomize the program to the need of their child. Not every\r\nchild needs to be potty trained in one day. A parent must\r\nalways take into consideration the needs of the child. Whether\r\nyou do the program in a day, weekend or over a couple of weeks-- is\r\nall fine. The ultimate goal should be to make the experience\r\nvery enjoyable for the child.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nTo make the process exciting and fun, I\r\nhave included a dozen detailed potty party themes, such as, the\r\nprincess ball, teddy bear picnic, splish, splash, beach bash, all\r\naboard train trip, and fun on the farm. Each theme is complete with\r\nsuggestions for decorations, food and drinks, games, books, music,\r\nprizes and presents. To help you decide which theme potty party\r\nyour child will find motivational and fun, I offer recommendations\r\nbased on personality, preferences, and the concerns and fears your\r\nchild has about using the potty.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<strong>4.\r\nHow does it feel to have written such a successful book?</strong>\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nI am very proud to have been able\r\nto help other parents who are in the same tough spot I was\r\nin a few years ago. The book is already in its 3rd\r\nprinting since being released in 3 months ago!\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nYou also work with teens and youth\r\nprograms that focus on positively achieving goals. How did you\r\nget started with that? Does your success inspire them to focus\r\non their own personal goals?\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nI started working with victims of\r\ndomestic violence. I would go into shelters and give speeches\r\nto help/encourage/inspire the women and children. I feel very\r\npassionate to help teens and youths achieve their\r\ngoals and dreams. As Magic Johnson always says, &quot;All kids\r\nneed a little help, a little hope, and somebody who believes in\r\nthem.&quot;\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<strong>5.

The magnetic components are safely and securely sewn within the fabric applique and elastic. The elastic strap has a 100% cuddly cotton backing to it so it is comfortable directly against babies&#39; skin. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThe Tinybigs collection is the creation of Seattle-area mom, Keri Schroeder.

Your older child is used to having the limelight and now he has to share it. The best thing to do is to hand the baby over to family or friends who want to help out, and you take a few minutes to spend some quality time with your older child.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nTake him to the park or someplace he likes going with you. Being pro-active about giving him attention will reduce the number of outbursts and poor behavior from him which is really just a cry for attention. It usually takes about 6-8 weeks for the older child to adjust.\r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Dr. Ari Brown:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/draribrown.jpg\" alt=\"draribrown.jpg\" title=\"draribrown.jpg\" width=\"100\" height=\"140\" /><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1889392200/islandtravela-20\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/baby411.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"85\" height=\"180\" /></a>\r\nAri Brown, M.D., FAAP, is an award winning pediatrician and\r\nchild health advocate.

You will be amazed how a little exercise will give you new energy and ease of movement to make it through those last hard weeks. \r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Tracey Mallett:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/traceymallett.jpg\" alt=\"Tracey Mallett\" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" width=\"180\" height=\"120\" /><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000F1IO34/islandtravela-20\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/tracey-mallett-dvd.jpg\" alt=\"Tracey Mallett 3 in 1 Pregnancy System DVD\" width=\"100\" height=\"150\" align=\"default\" /></a>Tracey\r\nMallett is a familiar face, recognized by millions of viewers as the\r\npopular host of &quot;The Method Show&quot; on Fox Fit TV, and now can be\r\nseen on Exercise TV.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nA sought-after fitness expert with over 17 years in the fitness\r\nindustry, Tracey regularly contributes to Fitness Magazine, Self,\r\nShape, Fit Yoga, Pilates style, Oxygen, Cooking Light, Babyzone.com,\r\nHers Muscle and Fitness and she&#39;s also the babycenter.com prenatal\r\nexpert.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nTracey\r\nhas recently produced the <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000F1IO34/islandtravela-20\">3\r\nin 1 Pregnancy System DVD</a> voted one of 6 best\r\nprenatal DVD&#39;s for Fit Pregnancy Magazine, Super Body Boot Camp and\r\nRenew You series awarded Shape Magazine&#39;s Top 10 pick for\r\n2006.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nShe&#39;s\r\na master Pilates Instructor and certified personal trainer and\r\nlifestyle counselor.\r\n</p>\r\n</div>\r\n<p>\r\nIf you have a question, you would like to see answered here, <a href=\"/communicate/savvy_mommy.html\">send an email</a> and a leading mom expert in the appropriate field will respond to it in the <strong>Ask Savvy Mommy</strong> section.

What is the most common cleaning mistake people tend to make? </strong>\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<em>Using old fashioned traditional cleaning methods</em> that take too long, and just don&#39;t clean as well as newer methods. Check out a bucket less mop with disposable pads like a <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00008MOQA/islandtravela-20\">Swiffer WetJet</a>. You not only get a better clean than traditional mops, but it saves you time and back bending work. 20 minutes to clean the floor or 5 minutes? It&#39;s really a no-brainer. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<em>Over-spraying products on a surface</em>, then spending twice as long to remove the product. In America we tend to think if we spray more it will clean better. In fact spraying less glass cleaner on a window, door or mirror will make cleaning up to 50% faster. Too much spray results in more labor time pulling the product off a surface and dealing with streaks and smears. Spray directly on your cloth, to avoid this common mistake. The same techniques applies to furniture polish, spray the cloth, not the surface. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<strong>2. What are some ways children (even as young as three and half years old) can help their parents keep the house tidy? </strong>\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<em>Start early</em>. My motto is, If they are old enough for preschool, they are old enough to dust. Parents can start as early as two years old teaching children picking up toys, helping fold washcloths etc. The best way to introduce chores to children at an early age is with songs, games etc..that makes cleaning a fun thing to do. My kids and I would chant, &quot;Clean up Clean up it&#39;s time to play clean up!&quot; Make up your own tune, and remember to make cleaning up as common as brushing teeth and it will never be a challenge to get kids to clean in your household. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<em>Get your kid&#39;s mini-cleaning kits</em>. Children imitate us as parents. It&#39;s very important that we have a great fun attitude about cleaning, so our kids will. I have always loved the new vacuums for kids like the Barbie vacuum that actually picks up dirt. Mr. Clean now has a kid&#39;s mini-cleaning kit with a mop, and miniature magic erasers! What better way to train your children then to have them mop the floor right beside you! Dusting is also one of the easiest and safest jobs your children can do. Your children should have their own, broom, dustpan, duster, mop and vacuum so they can clean their own messes easily! \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<strong><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/savvy_mommy_7/LauraDellutri.jpg\" alt=\"Laura Dellutri\" width=\"160\" height=\"218\" />3. What are some ways families with children or even parents with allergies or sensitive skin (ie. eczema) can clean up without becoming irritated?</strong> \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n- Don&#39;t expose yourself to harsh smelling products that can agitate the respiratory system. Use safe non-toxic products like 3% hydrogen peroxide. It can sanitize and clean your whole home. Just put in a spray bottle and it does a great job cleaning and sanitizing every surface safely. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n- Clean smarter not harder. Buy a duster like the <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000CCW1O/islandtravela-20\">Swiffer Dusters</a> that can trap and lock the dust as well as remove common household allergens while you dust and won&#39;t blow it around like a traditional feather duster. Use damp micro fiber cloths that clean with water only and still pick up 97% of germs and bacteria from a surface. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<strong>4. Your third book, Laura Dellutri&#39;s White Couch With Kids has a title which most parents wouldn&#39;t dream of even thinking of doing?</strong> <strong>A white couch around kids? Really? Is it possible? Even with young ones underfoot?</strong> \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nYes it is possible to have a white couch with kids. It requires a great amount of 3M fabric protector and savvy cleaning tips for those accidents! \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThat&#39;s my couch on the cover of the book, and it&#39;s been in our living room -the one where my five kids (and their friends) have hung around in -- for years. And that&#39;s the way the room really looks: orderly and neat and inviting. There was no stylist, or trick photography. My house looks the way it does thanks to simple, easy cleaning tips I share with people in the book. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThree main household secrets to having a white couch with kids;<br />\r\na. <em>No shoe rule in the house </em>- 85% of dirt comes in on the bottom of shoes<br />\r\nb. <em>No eating on furniture rule</em> - prevent food/drink spills from happening<br />\r\nc. <em>Good hand washing habits</em> - having kids wash their hands every time they are messy \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<strong><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0696224143/islandtravela-20\" target=\"_blank\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/savvy_mommy_7/Speed-Cleaning-101.jpg\" alt=\"Speed Cleaning 101\" width=\"160\" height=\"209\" /></a>5. With modern day families constantly on the go, it&#39;s hard to be excited about cleaning up the house? Any motivational tips? </strong>\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n1. Read my book <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0696224143/islandtravela-20\">Speed Cleaning 101</a> -- it will change the way you clean forever and motivate you!<br />\r\n2. Include the whole family and make it a fun team effort, don&#39;t try to go it alone! <br />\r\n3. Use cool gadgets and tools that save time and make it fun to clean (kids and dads love cool tools) \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<strong>6. What is once piece of advice you would give to moms who are currently surrounded by clutter and are determined to clean it up and keep it up? </strong>\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n1. <em>Tackle the clutter one room at a time.</em> My best organizing tip, take everything out of the room. Deep clean the room. DO NOT put anything back in the room that you do not need, pack it in a box and label it: Charity, Sentimental or Trash. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n2. <em>Don&#39;t put it down put it away. To</em> reduce clutter, give everything a place. Even if you have one shelf in your linen closet dedicated as a junk shelf. Put your clutter bug stuff there. If you are tempted to set something down in a hurry; remember the &quot;don&#39;t put it down, put it away&quot; rule. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<strong>7. What book are you reading right now?</strong> \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<em><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1591451876/islandtravela-20\">Love and Respect by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs</a></em><strong> </strong>it is one of the best books I have ever read. The book breaks down and defines how men and women are internally wired. Women desire feeling loved, men desire being respected. If either of those needs aren&#39;t being met in a marriage, conflict starts. Ladies this is the book that will change the way you respond to your husband so you can get the love you need from him. I highly recommend it to everyone no matter how long you have been married! \r\n</p>\r\n','',1,8,0,14,'2007-01-24 13:19:11',63,'','2007-01-24 15:22:23',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2007-01-24 13:14:52','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','pageclass_sfx=\nback_button=\nitem_title=1\nlink_titles=\nintrotext=1\nsection=0\nsection_link=0\ncategory=1\ncategory_link=0\nrating=\nauthor=\ncreatedate=\nmodifydate=\npdf=\nprint=\nemail=\nkeyref=\ndocbook_type=\nrobots=-1',7,0,1,'','',0,10582),(236,'Introducing the bottle after exclusively nursing','','<h3>Question</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nDear Savvy Mommy,<br />\r\nHow do I get my son to use the bottle and still nurse two months after exclusive nursing?<br />\r\n— Sandra, Sanford, Florida \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Answer</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nKatie Fogarty, mom of two, co-founder of <a href=\"http://www.realdealvideos.com/\">Real Deal Productions LLC</a> and co-producer of the award-winning DVD guide <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0002LXWSY/islandtravela-20\">The REAL DEAL on Breastfeeding™</a> graciously answers this question - \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nWhen exclusively nursing my second, I went cross-country to a friend&#39;s wedding for four days, after handing my four-month old son and the brand-spanking new bottle to my husband. I can&#39;t recall if I wished him luck, but I do remember worrying about how everyone was faring back home during my marathon pumping sessions in the hotel bathroom. How did the story end? Everyone survived and I continued successfully nursing for many months. Hoping a cross-country plane is not the only (or recommended!) way to introduce a bottle. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nTo begin, introduce the bottle about two weeks before you return to work or before you want some extended time away. No need to practice everyday, but try to have baby take the bottle a few times a week. Consider having dad or another trusted caregiver offer the bottle when mom is out of the room. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nAlso, don&#39;t wait until baby is ravenous. Could you master a new skill when starving, upset or right after waking up? Find a peaceful time and watch baby for hunger cues and offer the bottle before hunger builds. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nExperiment with different techniques. Does baby want to be held upright when feeding or to lay in the arms in a position similar to nursing? Some babies prefer to take the bottle when walking. Strap on that baby carrier and feed baby as he faces frontward. (This is a good trick for mom to try when she wants to offer the bottle at a later date.) Also, be aware that adding bottle feedings will eventually affect your milk supply, unless you are pumping at the same time. Skipping an occasional feeding, once your milk supply is well established, is unlikely to have an adverse affect but if you are away from baby for extended periods of time, be sure to continue to express your milk with either an electric or handheld pump. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nFinally, practice patience. Any new skill takes time to develop. If you are exclusively breastfeeding now, you are no doubt in a nursing groove, but getting in the swing of things probably took time. Understand that it might take time for baby to take the bottle easily or happily. Don&#39;t let others discourage you by saying &quot;you should have started earlier&quot; or &quot;you can&#39;t bottle feed and nurse.&quot; It&#39;s never &quot;too late&quot; for baby to acquire a new skill and that&#39;s a valuable lesson for any parent to learn! \r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Katie Fogarty:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/Katie-Fogarty-headshot.jpg\" alt=\"Katie Fogarty\" width=\"96\" height=\"140\" /><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000F1IO34/islandtravela-20\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/The-Real-Deal-on-Breastfeed.jpg\" alt=\"The Real Deal on Breastfeeding\" width=\"115\" height=\"150\" /></a>Katie Fogarty is the co-producer of the award-winning DVD guide <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0002LXWSY/islandtravela-20\">The REAL DEAL on Breastfeeding™</a>.

The good news? Generally mothers do not need a special diet while nursing. Woman all over the world - with vastly different diets - breastfeed. There is little scientific evidence supporting the idea that certain foods cause gas in the baby or affect a mother&#39;s milk supply. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nSimilarly, sleep-deprived new moms can also start their day with coffee. Caffeine is allowed in moderation during pregnancy, so there are no further restrictions once the baby is born. Also, alcohol, again in moderation, is fine for a breastfeeding mother.  So cheers! A glass or two of wine or the occasional beer is okay! And when in doubt, consult with your doctor or your baby&#39;s pediatrician. \r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Katie Fogarty:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/Katie-Fogarty-headshot.jpg\" alt=\"Katie Fogarty\" width=\"96\" height=\"140\" /><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000F1IO34/islandtravela-20\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/The-Real-Deal-on-Breastfeed.jpg\" alt=\"The Real Deal on Breastfeeding\" width=\"115\" height=\"150\" /></a>Katie Fogarty is the co-producer of the award-winning DVD guide <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0002LXWSY/islandtravela-20\">The REAL DEAL on Breastfeeding™</a>.

Your heart rate will be much higher than it was before you became pregnant. In addition, it may take as long as 15 minutes for your heart to recover to resting rate following an exercise session. This makes it very important to cool down slowly as it will take longer to bring your heart rate down than other non-pregnant students in your class.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nStop exercising when fatigued, and don&#39;t exercise to exhaustion. You might be able to continue doing weight-bearing exercises at close to your usual intensity throughout pregnancy, but non weight-bearing exercise such as swimming is easier to continue and carries less risk of injury further on through the pregnancy.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nPilates and Yoga are perfect through pregnancy. The non-ballistic nature of this exercise makes it a safe choice. Doing these forms of exercise will keep your hips flexible and your pelvic floor strong ready for child birth and a speedy recovery. \r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Tracey Mallett:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/traceymallett.jpg\" alt=\"Tracey Mallett\" width=\"180\" height=\"120\" /><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000F1IO34/islandtravela-20\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/tracey-mallett-dvd.jpg\" alt=\"Tracey Mallett 3 in 1 Pregnancy System DVD\" width=\"100\" height=\"150\" align=\"default\" /></a>Tracey Mallett is a familiar face, recognized by millions of viewers as the popular host of &quot;The Method Show&quot; on Fox Fit TV, and now can be seen on Exercise TV. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nA sought-after fitness expert with over 17 years in the fitness industry, Tracey regularly contributes to Fitness Magazine, Self, Shape, Fit Yoga, Pilates style, Oxygen, Cooking Light, Babyzone.com, Hers Muscle and Fitness and she&#39;s also the babycenter.com prenatal expert. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nTracey has recently produced the <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000F1IO34/islandtravela-20\">3 in 1 Pregnancy System DVD</a> voted one of 6 best prenatal DVD&#39;s for Fit Pregnancy Magazine, Super Body Boot Camp and Renew You series awarded Shape Magazine&#39;s Top 10 pick for 2006. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nShe&#39;s a master Pilates Instructor and certified personal trainer and lifestyle counselor. \r\n</p>\r\n</div>\r\n<p>\r\nIf you have a question, you would like to see answered here, <a href=\"/communicate/savvy_mommy.html\">send an email</a> and a leading mom expert in the appropriate field will respond to it in the <strong>Ask Savvy Mommy</strong> section.

I would steer away from classes that have high impact moves or modify the routine keeping both feet on the floor, a good instructor will always cue this for people with knee and back issues. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nHot yoga is not recommended due to the excessive heat which can cause harm to the fetus and can increase blood pressure. Jerky and rotational movements present in dance classes and kick boxing need to be taken with care especially in the third trimester when the center of gravity is greatly affected by the increased baby weight and also may cause balance issues. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThe best advice I could give is to listen to your body and go with your instincts. If something doesn&#39;t feel right the chances are that it&#39;s not.

Cankles, bathrobes and stretch marks, it&#39;s a miracle any woman got herself (willingly) knocked up a second time around. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nAfter pregnancy came motherhood: sweatpants, spit-up stained shirts and a big ugly diaper bag. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Mommy Mutiny</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nBut recently, and thankfully for Moms today, there has been a fashion and accessory uprising. Moms of the world are no longer settling for frump because there isn&#39;t anything else on the market to accommodate them. <br />\r\n<br />\r\nIn part, it&#39;s thanks to Moms themselves. So many Moms have turned into mom-prenuers and they&#39;ve taken it upon themselves to design the clothes and products that have been long overdue. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nIt&#39;s also because manufacturers have finally clued into the group power that exists in Moms. We&#39;re educated women with style and a wallet, it would be crazy NOT to produce and market to us. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Diaper bags, onesies and blankets, oh my!</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/diaperbagssm.jpg\" alt=\"diaperbagssm.jpg\" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" width=\"300\" height=\"71\" />\r\nThere are endless options for mothers today. Hip pregnancy lines and stylish diaper bags fill boutiques and online storefronts. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nStroller pushing has turned into an art. There are Kate Spade Maclaren strollers. You can accessorize your Bugaboo by color about as much as you can toenail polish if you are so inclined and have the means. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Mom style for everyone</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nAnd what&#39;s great is that you don&#39;t have to have the financial resources to afford a Bugaboo to look chic. Whether you&#39;re a big Hollywood mom and you&#39;re carrying a $500 Italian leather diaper bag, or just your every day mom looking for something a little more low-key, there&#39;s something for everyone. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Blackberry &amp; baby in the checkout line</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nWant to keep your pre-mom sense of style, but don&#39;t know where to start? It&#39;s as easy as this: hop online. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nModern Moms are plugged in, we&#39;re wireless and because of it we&#39;re educated. There are literally dozens to hundreds of sites recommending cool Mom products out there. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nWith multiple kids in tow, it&#39;s sometimes hard to get to the mall or shop at length. Which is why the online resources offered to modern moms are invaluable. No need to feel shy about where to start as you enter Mommy Land, find a site you like and let them do the recommending for you. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Stylish Moms and centered kids</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nThe bottom line: being a mom today is finally as it should be. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nIt&#39;s a change - a big one of course - but you can take your former, stylish and hip self and bring her into motherhood with you. If your kids see her, they&#39;ll learn to take care of themselves and respect your confidence. \r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Whitney Wingerd:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/whitneybiopict.jpg\" alt=\"whitneybiopict.jpg\" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" width=\"100\" height=\"148\" /><a href=\"http://www.mommieswithstyle.com/\" target=\"_blank\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/logo_mommieswithstyle.gif\" alt=\"mommieswithstyle\" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" width=\"125\" height=\"34\" /></a> \r\nWhitney Wingerd is the founder and editor of <a href=\"http://www.mommieswithstyle.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Mommies with Style</a>, the online community for trendy Moms.

Single parents have both going on at the same time. The divorce journey may feel like a lonely road, but you are not alone. There are over 38 million Americans who are separated or divorced. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nHow do you take care of your children when you may be feeling overwhelmed, stressed out or that your heart is broken? Some single moms just want to &quot;survive&quot; or get through the divorce. Why not raise your expectations higher and see you and your children thrive after divorce instead. These key strategies will get you started! \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>1. Move Yourself to the Top of Your Priority List</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nMoms are typically great at taking care of everyone else&#39;s needs except their own. Healing from a divorce is more like a marathon, not a sprint. You need to take care of your physical, emotional and spiritual health. When your batteries run low, inevitably your children and your peace of mind pay the price. Eating well, getting your sleep, and making time for fun with close friends are steps in the right direction. If your child was hurting, you&#39;d help her by showing some true love and compassion. Give yourself that same gift. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>2. Ask Great Questions</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nInstead of asking &quot;why me?&quot;, ask yourself &quot;what can I learn from this?&quot; Whether it was your choice to end the marriage or not; you were a participant in the relationship. Some of the greatest gifts in life are wrapped in our greatest pain. Get curious and stay open to learning what wisdom you can learn from your divorce. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>3. Create New Traditions</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nHolidays, like Mother&#39;s Day, Memorial Day or Christmas, can re-open new emotional wounds if you&#39;re not prepared. Create new family traditions with your children. Have a picnic on Mother&#39;s Day that your children can help to organize. Start an &quot;I Love My Mom&quot; journal where each year your children express why they love their mom. They can decorate it and write their own messages. When you find yourself childless on the holidays, make plans in advance to be with friends, volunteer in your community or give yourself a special mini-vacation. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>4. Keep Your Children&#39;s Best Interests in Mind</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nToo often children get caught in the crossfire between feuding, divorcing parents. Children should not become therapists, messengers or spies for their parents. Deal with your former partner like you would a business partner, but your business is raising happy, healthy human beings.

My Baby Came Without Instructions</em></a> \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nYour baby is a month old; she is sleeping 3-4 hours at a whack. You&#39;re feeling really good about being a mother; in fact, you are feeling great! You would love have a break to go get your hair cut, go to the bookstore, go out with your husband or just meet a friend for coffee. Can you relax enough to take that much needed time to be an adult? While the most wonderful thing in the whole world is to be a new Mommy, being a woman and an independent adult is just as important. You need to take care of yourself and balance your life and responsibilities. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nLeaving your baby with someone other than you is one of the scariest things a new mother faces. You think of every possible scenario that could go wrong. My baby won&#39;t eat. She won&#39;t sleep. She&#39;ll fall off the changing table. The house will catch on fire. Some are well-founded and some arise out of pure fear! While these thoughts are very normal as this is all new. It is very important to put things in perspective. If you pick a caregiver that you are comfortable with and know will give your baby the best care, then take a breath, pick up your purse and have fun! \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nHere are just a few pointers to have you breathing easier: \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nCaregivers come in lots of shapes and sizes. You can hire a teenager, go to a professional nanny agency or just rely on your extended family. The most important thing to remember is to choose someone that makes you feel totally comfortable. A person that you know will follow your instructions and has had experience caring for infants. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nGive very clear directions and write them down. If your baby is on a schedule, write down the times she has been eating, sleeping, etc and ask your caregiver is she has any questions. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nLeave your caregiver some paper and a pen to record the times your baby eats, sleeps or has a soiled diaper. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nWhile it is nice to have your baby on a schedule, make sure to leave some wiggle room if she decides to do something totally different today. As long as your baby eats, sleeps and is happy, it really doesn&#39;t matter. Formula tastes just as good at 11:00 as it does at 10:00. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nMake sure to tell your caregiver what <strong>you</strong> do when the baby cries. Tell her if the baby likes the swing, bouncy seat or stroller. And if you have my book; &quot;Help! My Baby Came Without Instructions,&quot; leave it out! \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nTell your caregiver what your baby <strong>doesn&#39;t</strong> like. Some babies hate to be swaddled even if this always worked for her babies! \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nDon&#39;t forget to show her where you keep everything, clothes, diapers, burp cloths, etc. Or if it makes you feel better, lay an extra set of clothes, burp cloths, some diapers and wipes to make it easier. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nShow your caregiver where the phones and the emergency numbers are located in your house. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nCommunicate your wishes. Tell your caregiver that it is okay if your baby doesn&#39;t drink the entire bottle or she can have extra formula if she needs more. Leaving choices up to her is sometimes upsetting to you because they will be different than yours. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nIf Grandma is the caregiver, try cutting her some slack and not getting defensive when she starts giving you unsolicited advice. She&#39;s just trying to help. Tell her she has great ideas but the baby is happiest following your schedule. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nIf Daddy is watching the baby for the first time alone, be clear and gentle. He wants to make you and the baby happy and not mess up! Have the schedule written down for him. The more details you give him the better he will feel. It&#39;s scary to be in charge of this tiny baby. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nLeave your phone numbers in clear view, just in case. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nTry and restrain yourself from calling more than once. I know it&#39;s difficult, but if your caregiver needs you, she will call. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nIf you are running late, do call. But chances are the first time out you will be out of breath from rushing to get home early! \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nIf you arrive home and the baby is crying, try not to get upset and jump to conclusions. Nicely ask what is wrong. The baby sometimes cries when you take care of her, too. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThe connection between you and your baby may be the most glowing bond in your life. It is important as she gets older to expose her to other caregivers besides yourself. It is important for her to learn to trust other people, a skill that will help promote confidence and independence as your baby blossoms and grows. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nSo take a breath, put on those dancing shoes, give your baby a kiss, and walk out the door with that glowing new mom expression knowing that you are taking care of yourself and your baby is in good hands. \r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Blythe Lipman:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"http://www.savvymommy.com/images/stories/parenting_advice/blythe-lipman.jpg\" alt=\"blythe-lipman.jpg\" width=\"100\" height=\"137\" /><a href=\"http://www.babyinstructions.com/\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/blythe-lipman-book-cover.jpg\" alt=\"blythe-lipman-book-cover.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"119\" /></a>Blythe Lipman is a nationally recognized baby expert and the author of <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0976257602/islandtravela-20\">Help!

An expectant mother of two or three will settle for whatever works but appreciates a fresh spin on the day&#39;s events. The one shower theme that easily meets both these requirements is the mother of all baby bashes - The Mother Goose baby shower. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nEven fashionable celebrity parents know that what&#39;s old is new again when it comes to the Mother Goose classics as proven by Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise choice of mother goose nursery décor for baby Suri and the Jolie-Pitt and Pinkett-Smith families dressing their tykes in vintage nursery rhyme character concert tees. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nStart by choosing specific characters for the invitation. Think &quot;Jack &amp; Jill&quot; for a couples shower, or place the spotlight on the baby-to-be with a &quot;Rock-a-bye baby&quot; design concept. Rather focus on the baby&#39;s gender? Throw a &quot;Sugar &amp; Spice&quot; or &quot;Snips n&#39; Snails,&quot; party - also apt for same sex twins. While disciples of Martha may prefer constructing invitations by hand, painstakingly cutting out moon and cow shapes weeks in advance, the rest of the population can easily purchase from a great selection of Mother Goose invites <a href=\"http://www.colorsbydesign.com/\">online</a>. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nDecorate the party space with cut-out designs of popular characters like Little Miss Muffet, Humpty Dumpty, Jack Horner and Baa Baa Black Sheep which are all readily available at school supply stores, book and card shops. For the gift table centerpiece, make or purchase a diaper cake embellished with nursery rhyme décor and arrange stuffed barnyard animals like cows and sheep nearby. Balloon bouquets are a colorful finishing touch. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nIf you&#39;re a stickler for unity, a Mother Goose menu extends the rhyme theme. Try basics like: Humpty Dumpty deviled Eggs; Three Blind Mice Cheese &amp; Cracker Platter; This Little Piggy loves Roast Beef Sandwiches; This little Piggy is in a blanket; Peter Peter&#39;s pumpkin pies; Little Boy Blue&#39;s Berry Muffins; and of course, Hot Cross Buns, Pat-A-Cakes, Queen of Hearts Fruit Tarts and Georgie Porgies pudding &amp; pie for dessert. Create artful labels to place in front of the platters to further illustrate the nursery rhyme connection. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nNo shower is complete without music, games and activities. A must for the DJ list is Boffomedia&#39;s &quot;Mother Goose Rocks&quot; series of CDs and DVD&#39;s. A combination of rhymes, lullabies and finger play songs, the performers&#39; version of U2 singing &quot;Head, Shoulders, Knees &amp; Toes,&quot; is inspirational. Look for cameos by Oprah, President Bush and the Pope <a href=\"http://www.mothergooserocks.com/animations/head_and_shoulders.html\">in this brilliant DVD video.</a> If rock n&#39; rhyme isn&#39;t your speed, there are a multitude of more traditional Mother Goose melodies available on Amazon.com and at Barnes and Noble. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nMother Goose showers are suited to games like charades and fill-in-the-blank games. The shower hostess can type up or purchase game sheets with incomplete rhymes which guests compete to complete correctly. Another game, much more difficult than it appears, is to see who can list the most nursery rhyme titles. For the kids in attendance, instead of pin the tail on the donkey, try tape the tail on Bo Peep&#39;s sheep or find Bo Peeps sheep, from hiding places throughout the party area. The children in attendance can also take turns reading rhymes to the baby-to-be from the classic version of Mother Goose - an activity begging for video cameras. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nAs the shower comes to a close, great party favors need not be pricey. The Mother Goose Rocks CDs are a great gift for adult parents. And you can send Mother Goose home with younger guests by passing out crayon bundles and (free) downloadable nursery rhyme coloring pages from <a href=\"http://www.first-schools.ws/\">www.first-schools.ws</a> and <a href=\"http://www.niteowl.org/kids\">www.niteowl.org/kids</a>. \r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Tracy Bobbitt:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/Tracy-Bobbitt-Head-Shot.jpg\" alt=\"Tracy-Bobbitt-Head-Shot.jpg\" width=\"84\" height=\"130\" /><a href=\"http://www.cribrockcouture.com/\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/12-Crib-Rock-Logo.png\" alt=\"12-Crib-Rock-Logo.png\" width=\"110\" height=\"105\" /></a>As the Founder and CEO of <a href=\"http://www.cribrockcouture.com/\">Crib Rock™</a> brand children&#39;s clothing (best known for concert tees showcasing nursery rhyme characters on rap, pop and rock tours), Tracy Bobbitt is by all admissions an accidental authority on Mother Goose but highly enthusiastic children&#39;s clothing connoisseur.

Who has time for sleep?&quot; If you learned to flap your arms and fly today, it would probably be much more difficult for you to sleep at night too! \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nMost major milestones in childhood are a double edged sword; on the one hand, your child will be incredibly revved up with excitement about her newfound abilities; on the other hand, this leap forward developmentally, particularly if it involves moving her body in a new way, can make her feel clingier than usual. This excitement/anxiety phenomena can often cause some temporary (but frustrating) sleep problems. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>What to do when sleep gets bumpy?</h3>\r\n<ol>\r\n	<li>It&#39;s important to give your child plenty of floor time to practice her new skills, to feel her independence, to explore and move her body, and to help her become physically tired enough to sleep when it&#39;s time. This is not the time to confine your child in a stroller, car seat or highchair for long periods: that&#39;s torture for her. She needs to be able to enjoy her new skills during the day so she&#39;ll be more willing to relax into sleep at night. </li>\r\n	<li>Your child may begin to cry at bedtime more than usual because she&#39;s suddenly concerned about separating from you while she&#39;s taking giant steps forward in her development. If your child is clingier during the day, it&#39;s important before separating at night to add an extra 10 to 15 minutes to your wind-down routine so you can give your child lots of extra holding, cuddling, and lap-time. Ideally, you&#39;ll spend a good deal of time in your child&#39;s room during the day, so she doesn&#39;t only view it as a place that she separates from you. If she wakes in the night and you&#39;ve seen evidence that she&#39;s very anxious during the day, go to her, give her a quick hug, calm her down and then try to encourage her to go back to sleep. </li>\r\n	<li>If your child is resisting naps right at the time she&#39;s learned a new skill, you may want to do some naps in the car or stroller to assist her to sleep, temporarily. It&#39;s most important to avoid letting her get overtired as this can potentially wreak havoc on her nighttime sleep as well. An overtired child will have a more difficult time falling asleep, staying asleep and sleeping till a reasonable time in the morning. </li>\r\n</ol>\r\n<p>\r\nKnow that the excitement your child is experiencing around a developmental milestone will continue for 1 to 2 weeks and will calm down thereafter. If your child is still having difficulty sleeping at night, it&#39;s time to encourage her to put herself back to sleep rather than continuing to rely on your assistance. In the meantime, delight in your child&#39;s accomplishment and try to hang in there. \r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Jill Spivack and Jennifer Waldburger:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/jill_And_Jen.jpg\" alt=\"jill_And_Jen.jpg\" width=\"110\" height=\"149\" /><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0757305601/islandtravela-20\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/sleepyBookCover.jpg\" alt=\"sleepyBookCover.jpg\" width=\"96\" height=\"142\" /></a>Jill Spivack, LMSW and Jennifer Waldburger, LCSW are family therapists and co-founders of Los Angeles-based <a href=\"http://www.sleepyplanet.com/\">Sleepy Planet</a>, where they offer private sleep consultations and parent education.

As much as you may want to exercise, actually fitting it in may seem next to impossible. And yet, who doesn&#39;t want the undeniable benefits of fitness - more energy, better health and a slimmer waistline?! The good news is that there are things that you can do TODAY to get started on the path to fitness! The first step is getting rid of the all-or-none mindset. Starting small is a-ok. In fact, trying to fit in too much is what causes so many people to give up. A little bit now can evolve into more. Here are some practical ideas that you can consider for fitting more fitness into your life. You&#39;ll have to give some thought to what&#39;s going to be right for you. It could be a small step for now, or a bigger step. Either way, you&#39;ll be on the road to fitness! \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Taking a Small Step</h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Invest in a pedometer. It&#39;s a great little gadget that will raise your awareness of how active you are throughout the day. The &quot;goal&quot; is supposed to be 10,000 steps a day (yes, ten <em>thousand</em>!). You may walk 3,000-6,000 per day without even trying to be more active. Why not try to bump it up by just 500 steps each week? You may be at 10,000 steps before you know it!</li>\r\n	<li>Make it a habit to take a lap around the block right after waving good-bye to the school bus.</li>\r\n	<li>Pick one exercise (such as abdominal crunches) and pick a time to do them consistently without even changing into exercise clothes.</li>\r\n	<li>Commit to <em>always</em> taking the stairs at work.</li>\r\n	<li>Train your little ones that you always go for a little stroller walk on the way to the playground. (Bring a special snack that you save just for your walks together.) </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h3>Tips for Taking a Bigger Step </h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Finally check out your local health club. Most have childcare on site and it&#39;s a great opportunity to meet lots of other moms trying to do the same thing as you are!</li>\r\n	<li>How about one of the women&#39;s express workout clubs? These no-frills environments are inexpensive and provide a quick taste of exercise for your busy schedule.</li>\r\n	<li>You can do a simple, yet complete exercise routine in the privacy and convenience of your own home with very little equipment.</li>\r\n	<li>Why not consider hiring a personal trainer for even just a few sessions to get you going?</li>\r\n	<li>Check out your local county recreation facility or community center. Many of them have homey and inexpensive fitness centers.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h3>Don&#39;t Forget These Important Tips: </h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Support, support, support! Do it with a friend or neighbor. Have a heart-to-heart with your hubby or other support person about your needs and new commitment to finding a workable fitness solution.</li>\r\n	<li>Put your exercise sessions on the calendar or in your day planner. Treat exercise like any other appointment and don&#39;t cancel at the drop of a hat. Exercise is important, but each individual exercise session will never be urgent. Therefore, unless you protect and honor its spot on your schedule<em>, it will never happen</em>! </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Cathy Moxley, M.A.:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/CROPPED-fitness-photos077.jpg\" alt=\"CROPPED-fitness-photos077.jpg\" width=\"100\" height=\"128\" /><a href=\"http://www.busymomsolutions.com/\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/300dpi-front.jpg\" alt=\"300dpi-front.jpg\" width=\"100\" height=\"150\" /></a>Cathy Moxley, M.A., is a mother of three, fitness expert, and author of <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0976780003/islandtravela-20\">The Busy Mom&#39;s Ultimate Fitness Guide</a>.

While most dogs are friendly, wonderful, and playful, every dog has the capacity to feel threatened and may react in an unexpected way. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nSince you can&#39;t judge a dog&#39;s demeanor based on its cuteness, here are some tips so everyone gets along. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Tips for a child to approach a dog and its owner:</h3>\r\n<ol>\r\n	<li>Ask the owner if their dog is friendly and if they can pet their dog</li>\r\n	<li>Offer a back hand fist or hand out with fingers down</li>\r\n	<li>Let the dog approach the child to sniff</li>\r\n	<li>Pet a dog gently reaching from the side, not over its head</li>\r\n	<li>Ask to offer their dog a treat as dogs remember those who reward them</li>\r\n</ol>\r\n<p>\r\nSince some dogs may not be familiar with children&#39;s sounds and actions, it&#39;s a good idea for children to refrain from screaming, squealing, and running. Even puppies who may seem harmless love to nip, chew, and chase small children which could be fun or frightening for both parties. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nSome dogs perceive direct eye contact as threatening. That might present a problem when your child is standing face to face with them. You&#39;ll want to be close enough to all of them to intervene if there&#39;s a problem. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nAmericans love dogs - we own more than 65 million of them. Unfortunately, there are about 5 million dog bites a year according the Centers for Disease Control. The CDC says nearly 1 million of those bites required medical attention with half of those involving children. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThe interaction between a child and a strange dog can be a sweet moment and an endearing one that hopefully inspires them to make a dog a part of their family someday. By taking simple precautions, it can be a pleasant experience that leaves everyone with a smile on their face. \r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Sheryl Matthys:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/sheryl-bio.jpg\" alt=\"sheryl-bio.jpg\" width=\"100\" height=\"130\" /><a href=\"http://www.leashesandlovers.com/\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/Leashes-and-Lovers-Logo.png\" alt=\"Leashes-and-Lovers-Logo.png\" width=\"150\" height=\"78\" /></a>Sheryl Matthys has two children, two greyhounds and is training to become a certified dog trainer.

Children need a worthwhile reason to be potty trained. There are a number of ways to motivate and teach toddlers, but one of the most effective is &quot;fun!&quot; \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/Bob-the-Builder-Potty-Party.jpg\" alt=\"Bob-the-Builder-Potty-Party.jpg\" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" width=\"200\" height=\"141\" />\r\nKids love parties. In Toddler-Speak, a party means fun, games, cake, candy, presents, and prizes. For a two- or three-year-old, it doesn&#39;t get much better than that. In Mom-Speak, a party can mean a fun way to motivate a child to learn a new behavior-in this case, using the toilet. Giving a toddler motivation is critical to a mother&#39;s success because when it comes to becoming toilet trained, most kids have absolutely no incentive. None. And when you look at it from their perspective, why would they? Life experience has proven that it&#39;s fast easy, and convenient to go in their diapers. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nNo matter how much a parent may want their child to trade in his/her Huggies for big-kid underpants, chances are s/he will remain blissfully unmotivated by the parent&#39;s desire or concern. Plus, if a child has had negative experience with the potty, it can be even more challenging to entice him to try again. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nTo lay the foundation for potty training success, a parent should start helping the child to master all the individual skills required for potty proficiency. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>I. Potty Training Building Blocks</h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li><strong>Actions Speak Louder Than Words<br />\r\n	</strong>Studies have convincingly proven that children can be toilet trained significantly faster when their parents use a learning method called modeling. Basically, modeling means learning by watching and by teaching.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Body Parts and Functions 101<br />\r\n	</strong>Along with teaching a toddler to recognize the sensations that mean &quot;I have to use the potty,&quot; a parent needs to teach him/her the words to use for their body parts and functions.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Clean and Dry: Wiping and Washing<br />\r\n	</strong>Silly as it may sound, &quot;hygiene habits last a lifetime.&quot;</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Dressing and Undressing<br />\r\n	</strong>Clothing that is easy to pull up and down is the key to enhancing a child&#39;s ability to get his pants down in time to use the potty and back up afterward.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h3>II. Potty Party Plans and Themes</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nPlaying is one of the best ways for young children to learn. When the educational playtime engages a variety of senses-sight, hearing, touch, taste, and scent-toddlers tend to learn new concepts and skills both better and faster. And, as icing on the cake, they also discover that learning is fun! \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nAll potty parties use the same teaching methods, modeling, and hands-on experience and the basic framework for all parties. By incorporating theme decorations, activities, and treats, a parent makes the learning process exciting, stimulating, and very rewarding. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nIf the thought of &quot;planning&quot; a potty party raises your stress level, remember that to a toddler the word &quot;party,&quot; loosely translated, just means <em>fun.</em> The most important part of the learning process is to make it a positive experience-and this is whether potty training is achieved in one day, two or a few. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>III. Consider This </h3>\r\n<p>\r\nIf you want your child to be a quick study, give him/her straight A&#39;s:<br />\r\nAcceptance, Approval, Appreciation, Admiration, and Applause. \r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Teri Crane:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/Teri-Crane.jpg\" alt=\"Teri-Crane.jpg\" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" width=\"100\" height=\"141\" /><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0743273133/islandtravela-20\" target=\"_blank\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/Potty-Train-Your-Child.jpg\" alt=\"Potty-Train-Your-Child.jpg\" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" width=\"90\" height=\"138\" /></a> \r\nTeri Crane is nationally known as <a href=\"http://www.tericrane.com/\">The Potty Pro</a> to the thousands who have gone through her potty training boot camp.

Much to the chagrin of moms, broccoli, carrots, and spinach are rarely on that list. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nGetting kids to eat their vegetables can be a tough sell. That&#39;s one reason the Produce for Better Health Foundation unveiled a new campaign, &quot;Fruits &amp; Veggies -- More Matters. Since 90% of children (and adults) don&#39;t eat the recommended amount of fruits and vegetables each day, the program is timely to be sure. So, how many fruits and vegetables should you eat? Well, that depends on your age. Take an active 5-year old girl for example. She needs about 2 cups of vegetables and 1 ½ cups of fruit every day. A baked potato, half a cup of baby carrots, and a half cup of green beans would cover her veggies for a day! \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nHere are some ideas to veggify your child&#39;s diet: \r\n</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li><strong>Shred/grate a Carrot</strong>: Peel and shred a carrot and mix it right in with your favorite tuna salad sandwich. Add finely grated carrot to muffins and cupcakes (see recipe below.)</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Make a Smoothie</strong>: Blend together 1 1/2 cups mango juice or fruit &amp; vegetable juice (such as Juicy Juice Orange Mango Harvest Surprise), one 10-ounce bag frozen mango, and 1 cup vanilla lowfat yogurt.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Dice It Up</strong>: Sauté a finely diced red bell pepper with your lean ground beef in recipes such as Sloppy Joes.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Kick Up the Flavor</strong>: Turn steamed broccoli, asparagus, and even Brussels sprouts from so-so to sensational by drizzling with extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of Parmesan cheese and kosher salt.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Be a good role model</strong>. Focus less on trying to modify picky eating habits and more on modeling vegetable consumption for children. When parents place an array of healthy foods on their plates, the children are more likely to follow.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Eat together as a family</strong>. Families who eat together eat a more nutrient-packed diet - and enjoy the benefit of quality time together at the table.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Offer new foods over and over again</strong>. On average, parents give up after just 5 tries but studies show it can take up to 20 attempts before a young child learns to love a new food.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Give kids &quot;some&quot; control</strong>. Give your child a large spoon so he can serve himself the vegetables at dinner. And don&#39;t forget to give your kids the opportunity to choose between lots of different foods ... like broccoli <em>and </em>carrots! </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Janice Newell Bissex, MS, RD &amp; Liz Weiss, MS, RD:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/MealMakeoverMomsJanice&amp;Liz.jpg\" alt=\"MealMakeoverMomsJanice&amp;Liz.jpg\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" /><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0767914236/islandtravela-20\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/meal-makeover-moms.png\" alt=\"meal-makeover-moms.png\" width=\"110\" height=\"139\" /></a>Janice Newell\r\nBissex, MS, RD &amp;\r\nLiz Weiss, MS, RD are <em>The\r\nMeal Makeover Moms</em>.  They are\r\nregistered dietitians and the<em> </em>authors\r\nof <em><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0767914236/islandtravela-20\">The\r\nMoms&#39; Guide to Meal Makeovers: Improving the Way Your Family Eats, One Meal at\r\na Time!</a></em> and founders of the online Meal Makeover Moms&#39; Club at their <a href=\"http://www.mealmakeovermoms.com/\">website</a>.  If you have a question or comment, post to\r\ntheir <a href=\"http://www.mealmakeovermoms.blogspot.com/\">blog</a>.\r\n</p>\r\n<br />\r\n</div>\r\n<p>\r\nIf you have a question or comment about this article, <a href=\"communicate/savvy_mommy.html\">send an email</a>.

Is there anything that makes you feel more impotent than watching your tiny child scream, kick and lose control over a perplexingly absurd reason, and being unable to stop his distress and your anger? It may be less baffling if you learn where these emotions originate. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>What causes tantrums?</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nMost often temper tantrums are caused by a child&#39;s inability to express and control his emotions. Something may have set him off - a sandwich cut in the wrong shape, a broken cookie - yet that is not the reason for his extreme meltdown. Most often there is a root cause hiding below the surface. He is tired, hungry, bored, or frustrated, and this causes the short fuse that ignites the tantrum. The good news is that you can frequently avoid or modify the cause, and thereby avoid the tantrum. Not always, of course! But when your child begins a meltdown, try to determine if you can tell what underlying issue is causing the problem. Solve that problem and you&#39;ll likely have your sweet child back again. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Handling and ending tantrums</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nNo matter how diligent you are in recognizing trigger causes, your child will still have meltdown moments. Or even meltdown days. There are things you can do to handle those inevitable bumps in the road. Here are a few ideas: \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Offer your child a choice</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nYou may be able to avoid some tantrums by giving your child more choices in his life. Instead of saying, <em>&quot;Time to leave the park - right now,&quot; w</em>hich may provoke a tantrum, offer a choice, <em>&quot;Before we go do you want one last slide, or one last swing?&quot;</em> Children who are busy deciding things can often be moved towards your goal with a happy attitude. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Get close, Be clear</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nWhen your child doesn&#39;t hear you or doesn&#39;t understand you, it often makes it seem he is misbehaving, which leads to your stress or anger, which results in tantrums - from both of you! Instead, get down to your child&#39;s level, look him in the eye, and make a clear, concise request. This will catch his full attention and increase the odds that he&#39;ll comply. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Tell him what you DO want</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nAvoid focusing on misbehavior and what you don&#39;t want him to do - which is a common knee-jerk response, and one that often makes tantrums worse. Instead, explain exactly what you would like your child to do or say instead. Give him simple step-by-step instructions. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Tell her you understand her feelings</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nHelp your child identify and understand her emotions. Give words to her feelings, &quot;You&#39;re sad. You want to stay here and play. I know.&quot; This doesn&#39;t mean you must give in to her request, but letting her know that you understand her problem may be enough to help her calm down. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Create a distraction</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nChildren can easily be distracted when a new activity is suggested. If your child is having a tantrum try viewing it as an &quot;activity&quot; that your child is engaged in. Since children aren&#39;t very good multi-taskers you might be able to end the unpleasant activity with the recommendation of something different to do. Bring out a game, toy or snack and change the subject! \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Play an imagination game</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nIf a child is upset about something, it can help to create a fantasy of what he wishes would happen: &quot;I bet you wish we could buy every single toy in this store.&quot; This can easily become a fun game. \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Use the preventive approach</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nPrior to leaving the house, when entering a public building, or before you begin a playdate have a chat with your child about what behavior you expect, and outline a few simple rules. This might prevent the tantrum from even beginning. Put your comments in the positive (remember - tell what you want, not what you don&#39;t want.) \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Don&#39;t hold a grudge</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nAfter a tantrum is over, let it go and move on. Don&#39;t feel you must teach a lesson by withholding your approval, love or company. Children bounce right back, and it is okay for you to bounce right back, too. \r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Elizabeth Pantley:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/PANTHY-BP-10.jpg\" alt=\"PANTHY-BP-10.jpg\" width=\"98\" height=\"139\" /><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0071471596/islandtravela-20\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/no-cry-discipline.jpg\" alt=\"no-cry-discipline.jpg\" width=\"100\" height=\"150\" /></a>Elizabeth Pantley has redefined stress-free parenting with her classic books The No-Cry Sleep Solution, The No-Cry Sleep Solution for Toddlers and Preschoolers, and The No-Cry Potty Training Solution. Her newest title is <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0071471596/islandtravela-20\">The No-Cry Discipline Solution</a>.

But a new luxury remake is underway, spearheaded by the new Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort. The company&#39;s first city ‘resort&#39; the hotel is sandwiched between two construction sites, a W hotel and a Trump. This is not your fraternity&#39;s Fort Lauderdale. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nOf course, some of the elements remain unchanged. The white sand is powdery, lifeguards watch the gentle surf, and the mid-size Fort Lauderdale airport offers an easy gateway to the beaches, just 5 miles away. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThe hotel, which just opened with 333 suites, all with full kitchens, flat screen TVs and balconies, take special care with young guests. There is a concierge for kids who welcomes children, and personalized gifts are delivered to your room. One night, Nora, my 9 year old, got a plush turtle with a letter addressed to her; another night, photo album with her name spelled out in foam letters. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThe hotel also has a concierge who will fill the kitchen for you; it&#39;s great to have that refrigerator, even better when it&#39;s already stocked with skim milk, (or whole, or soy - really whatever you want) fruit and cheese. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThe Ocean Explorers Club, for ages 6-15, introduces kids to area attractions. There is water instruction, from snorkeling to wind surging and kayaking. We took a &quot;hook the Future&quot; fishing clinic with Dan Dingman, where Nora learned how to tie knots and cast her line. I just observed, but on Tuesdays, &quot;family&quot; days, parents can participate in whatever&#39;s in store. Other activities include golfing, learning about ecology and conservation, and babysitting certification classes for ages 10-15. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThe Club visits Joe Picasso&#39;s, a create-your-own studio and coffee shop in the downtown area, but you can also go on your own. There is pottery that you paint and have fired, which take a couple of days; for more immediate gratification, you can make a mosaic, with bits and pieces of glass, stone and ceramic; picture framers, boxes and mirrors are available. We got to Joe&#39;s by water taxi, along the Intracoastal Waterway, which offers a glimpse in to the private villas seen only from the water. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nIf you have a rainy day or have had too much sun, Wannado City is the place for 3-13 year olds. The giant indoor theme park offers kids the chance to role play at a huge variety of jobs: fire fighter, singer, baker. When you enter, kids are given a check, which they cash at the bank for &quot;Wonga&#39; currency - some activities, like having your nails done, or rock climbing, require paying in Wonga dollars. At some jobs, you make money; Nora was a dentist and got paid for cleaning the teeth of a dummy. And since she didn&#39;t have enough time to perform onstage, she became a reporter and interviewed the actors (after she wrote her story, she got a broadsheet with her article, and more ‘money&#39;). There is an emergency room (kids get to ride in the ambulance through the city ‘streets; a Coca Cola bottling plant where kids make flavored soda and a store where you can spend some Wongas (and cash). You can leave kids over age 8, and shop at Sawgrass Mills, the tremendous mall attached to Wannado City. If you stay in Wannado, know that for most activities, kids go inside and parents watch through windows.

Here are a couple of fun and easy display ideas for moms who love to take family photos, decorate their homes and express their own creativity. \r\n</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/PD_photo_wreath.jpg\" alt=\"PD_photo_wreath.jpg\" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" width=\"180\" height=\"180\" />Creative Photo Wreaths: Celebrate your baby or family photos in a fresh new way. Using a small berry wreath, several small 2&quot; or 3&quot; photo frames or photo frame templates, scrapbook papers and ribbon you can create a clever wall decoration or birthday party center piece. (INSERT IMAGE)</li>\r\n	<li>Memory Jewelry: Many scrapbook manufacturers are now offering some very cute jewelry designs that allow mom&#39;s to show off photos anytime. Various jewelry pieces include bracelets, lockets and key chains that can be worn for any occasion and make for great conversation pieces.</li>\r\n	<li>Memory Handbags and Totes: Whether it&#39;s a diaper bag and dainty handbag, your favorite photos can be printed on special ordered high quality purses. Other handbag manufacturers offer clear vinyl inserts on the outside of ready made bags that allow you simply slip in your favorite photos for display.</li>\r\n	<li>For the crafty mom, photos can be transferred or printed onto to special fabrics then made into quilts, pillows or other home décor items.</li>\r\n	<li>Photo Collages are a trend that&#39;s catching the eyes of creative moms. Simply cut and paste your favorite photos onto an artist&#39;s canvas (available at most craft and art supply stores). For a custom look, attach memorabilia or trinkets such hospital bracelets, buttons, ribbons, etc or add a short journal entry onto scrapbook paper that tells the story or theme of the collage.</li>\r\n	<li><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/November_Scrapbook.jpg\" alt=\"November_Scrapbook.jpg\" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" width=\"175\" height=\"168\" />Frame Your Scrapbook Pages: Scrapbook pages can fill a photo album fast. If so, why not frame your best page in a pretty frame. Larger table top frames work well but by grouping similar pages together on the wall you can make a lovely home décor statement.</li>\r\n	<li>Make a Statement in Black and White: Color photos can be photo copied or printed in black and white. For the contemporary mom, this is a great way to accessorize a wall or hallway with black and white family photo&#39;s framed in inexpensive black frames. </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Kathy Peterson:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img class=\"left\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/Kathy-Peterson-Standing.jpg\" alt=\"Kathy Peterson\" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" width=\"120\" height=\"138\" /><a href=\"http://www.kathypeterson.com\" target=\"_blank\"><img class=\"right\" src=\"/images/stories/parenting_advice/kathy-peterson-logo.jpg\" alt=\"kathy peterson logo \" hspace=\"0\" vspace=\"0\" width=\"150\" height=\"52\" /></a> Kathy Peterson is a celebrity design and lifestyle expert, author, national TV host and step-mom of four great kids.

Is there anything I can do to make &quot;snacking&quot; work in my favor?<br />\r\n&mdash; Debbie, Port Washington, New York \r\n</p>\r\n<h3>Answer</h3>\r\n<p>\r\nKeri Glassman, mom of two, president of <a href=\"http://www.kkgbodyfuel.com/\">KKG Body Fuel, Inc</a> and author of <i><a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0307351475/islandtravela-20\">The Snack Factor Diet</a></i> graciously answers this question - \r\n</p>\r\n<div>\r\n<p>\r\nABSOLUTELY!\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nSnacking can not only work in your favor but it is essential for\r\nkeeping your metabolism up and energy high. Also, snacking has been shown to\r\nhelp lower bad cholesterol and keep your mood&nbsp;&quot;happy&quot;&nbsp;and\r\nyour mental acuity in tact. What could be better? But, Doritos and Teddy\r\nGrahams are not going to do this... You need to make smart snack decisions.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThink of snacks as mini meals. Snacks do not have to be chips or\r\ncookies. A couple slices of turkey is an excellent snack! So, if you are a\r\n&quot;snacker&quot; and have been snacking on a bite of a muffin, then some\r\nchips, then maybe a piece of fruit... TRY, starting the day off with a good\r\nbreakfast that provides fiber and protein. This will help give your body a good\r\nfoundation for the day.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThen, make your snacks mini meals by thinking about eating\r\n&quot;real&quot; food in snack size. For example, 2 fiber crackers with reduced\r\nfat cheddar cheese and honey mustard, non fat plain yogurt with 10 almonds, one\r\ncup of edamame, a whole wheat wrap spread with almond or peanut butter and\r\nrolled up, carrots dipped in hummus, apple and peanut butter or pear with Lite\r\nLaughing Cow garlic and herb cheese.\r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nTry to get fiber, protein and/or healthy fat at your snack. This\r\nwill ensure adequate proportion of nutrients and help stabilize your blood\r\nsugar. Make a snack shopping list and keep these foods around all the time so\r\nyou can always whip up a healthy snack for home or on the go.\r\n</p>\r\n<div class=\"ask_author\">\r\n<h3>About Keri Glassman:</h3>\r\n<p>\r\n<img src=\"images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/keri_glassman.jpg\" class=\"left\" alt=\"Keri Glassman\" title=\"Keri Glassman\" height=\"150\" width=\"100\" /> \r\n<a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0307351475/islandtravela-20\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"images/stories/ask_savvy_mommy/snackfactor.gif\" class=\"right\" alt=\"The Snack Factor Diet\" title=\"The Snack Factor Diet\" height=\"151\" width=\"100\" /></a> Keri Glassman, M.S., R.D., is the president of <a href=\"http://www.kkgbodyfuel.com/\">KKG Body Fuel, Inc</a>., a nutrition counseling and consulting practice, and the founder and president of KeriBar, a nutrition snack bar company.
