I love trying new recipes and learning new tips. Recently, I received a copy of Dollars to Donuts: Comfort Food and Kitchen Wisdom from Route 66’s Landmark Rock Cafe to review. So, what did I think?
I tried out the Cheesy Baked Chicken Enchiladas recipe. I like the tips at the bottom saying you can use [...]
Toddlers and preschoolers don’t like baby things much. My daughter hates sitting in a booster seat at the table because she’s “not a baby anymore”. Sometimes it’s hard to find functional products that still allow them to feel like they’re big kids too!
Kaboost has a really nice idea here. I won one from a website [...]
Everytime we get in the car, my daughter insists I turn on the music. I am way too paranoid to turn on regular stations anymore that sing about things she does not need to listen to. Since when did a ton of profanities become acceptable in songs that are played all day long? Well, for [...]
This month is eventful for our household. I used to laugh as a child when my mom would tell me kids grow up too fast. I guess as a kid, we’re always wanting to be older so we can do more things. We don’t really realize just how quickly we’ve grown up and become adults. Now, as a parent, I’m [...]

Since my daughter was about 6 months old, we started looking for fun, interactive learning tools. She was starting to say some words and pointing out what some things were named. If you do a Google search on ‘kids learning‘, one of the top 10 sites that come up is Starfall.com. We started out with [...]
When it comes to clothing for my kids, I can be found scouring the racks of Target, Carters, Gap and Old Navy with the rest of ‘em. But I also like finding new sources for children’s clothing so that the kids can get something a little different too. One of the most fun perks of this Voice of [...]
For my son’s first Christmas, a friend gave him an adorable, hand-decorated piggy bank. It’s been sitting on top of my son’s dresser, getting filled and filled, for almost four years now and he absolutely adores it. Having a special bank to stick coins in is an exciting part of childhood. Kids learn about saving [...]
When Sarah decided that this week was going to be a Spring into Summer week here at The Voice of Mom, I knew exactly what I was going to write about … Chic Tots Blanket Bag. Now the backstory.
