Let’s Play Birthday Party!
Every birthday is monumental in a kid’s eyes. Even pretend ones! “Birthday Party” is one of my favorite dramatic play themes to set up, and the kids love it too! Melissa & Doug know a thing or two about kids, play, and birthdays, so they’re sponsoring this post as a part of their Ultimate Birthday Bash. (They’re also hosting an amazing giveaway, so be sure to check out those details at the end!)
20 Moms: Playdough Transfer and Match with Allison McDonald from No Time for Flashcards
I am so excited to welcome Allison McDonald from No Time for Flash Cards! Allison is a member of 20 Moms, and having spent a few days with her last summer, I can attest that she really is as rad as you think she is. Definitely a mom you should get to know!
After reading Allison’s post, you can hop over to another 20 Moms blog, Peanut Blossom, and find my post. From there you can keep following the links until you’ve come full circle. You’re sure to find great posts, fabulous blogs, and some of the best people out there on the internets! It’s one big party, and you’re invited!

First Friday Q&A: What to Do About the Whining and Complaining…
A tricky question from a reader asks what to do about an emotional three year old who prefers crying over trying. The video can also be found on YouTube.
Book Activity: If You Give a Moose a Muffin (with an ABC Game)
I love Laura Numeroff’s stories, and the kids do too! In her predictable, yet amusing pattern, the characters begin with one activity, which inevitably leads to another, then another, then another, till you’re right back where you started again. Whether it’s the mouse with the cookie, the pig with the pancake, the moose with the muffin, or one of their many friends, kids learn to expect the unexpected!

Steve Spangler and the Human Beings
I’ve been having some fun telling people I shared a speaking engagement with Steve Spangler over the weekend. Technically it is true, though Steve and I never actually met. He was the keynote speaker at an early childhood education conference where I taught one of the breakout sessions.
