Fall Fun with Toddlers
First, I have to say that I love my children with all my heart. But… if I’m stuck at home with a toddler or preschooler all day, it makes me crazy! Out of the house, we play and laugh together. In the house, I spend all my time just thinking that if only they would entertain themselves for a little while, I could actually get “something important” done. So, I’m always looking for options for cheap and accessible entertainment. And I know I’m not the only one. Here are some things you can do with a child from about 4 months to 4 years, mostly for $4 or less. They are all great opportunities for your child to learn about the world, and make new discoveries. >> Read More

I’ll give you a few reasons, but here’s the one that I hope you remember: It’s something you do actually do together. You learn songs and lyrics, melodies and choreographed moves. With repetition in class and at home, your little one will surprise you with bits or pieces from our songs after just a few weeks. And that’s just the beginning. >> Read More
