If you ask Bubs his first impression - of anything right now - he will be negative. So when we sat down to read the next book in my Usborne reviews, he immediately said he didn't like this book.

Review: Usborne Playtime Books
In February I posted about my excitement watching Bubs truly draw something. I mean, for the first time Bubs drew an object instead of just scribble. In that post, I credited the change to the Usborne book I Can Draw Animals. In our school time, I have incorporated the I Can Draw books to help Bubs make sense of objects. I ...

Review: Hermie Who is in Charge
Hermie and Friends Series #15: Who Is in Charge Anyway?, DVD Hermie: A Common Caterpillar is one of my absolute favorite books to read to my kids.

Review: Butt Paste

Our poor children inherited my terrible skin and have all experienced horrible diaper rash. Boudreaux's was the only over-the-counter paste that would even ...
