Seattle's Theater-Market Gum Wall





If you are visiting Seattle and famous Pike Place Fish market don't be surprised when you see side wall of the market and Theater building that is actually wall of gum.Tradition started 1993 when visitors and locals decided to post their interesting and creative ideas before sticking their gum to the wall.
This is very tricky,in some sort of way it is art,but still it is just a gum. You decide.

Yoplait Go-GURT - Sooo Yummy




Yoplait Go-GURT Portable Low fat Yogurt is very convenient and good healthy snack.It is like unstoppable fun every day.I was just wondering does anybody have thoughts about contest to see how many Go-Gurt's can one child eat in one day.It seems like every time I buy a new package,next morning this same package is empty.Funny,but it is true.
Good news is that new flavor combination is coming soon in our supermarkets and our refrigerators.It is Banana/Split and Strawberry Milkshake flavor.
I think kids will be delighted.

How sweet !




"Ultimate Guide to Grandmas and Grandpas!" by Sally LIoid-Jones
and Illustrations by Michael Emberley

"Did you know when you have your grandpa and grandma there are guidelines how to best take care of them?"
"This is a story how children should treat there grandparents.How they can play together,enjoy snacks,take trips,tell stories,snuggle and share secrets."

What a wonderful book with a little twist.Usually kids are the ones who are pampered with grandpa's or grandma's attention.There is a small present here or there,little chocolate or trip to the Zoo.
This book is a guideline for kids to love and respect grandparents.

Next time when you are visiting bookstore or your local library try to find this book,your kids will be pleasantly surprised.

Bubble bath anyone?




My kids love bubble bath.I was a little bit sceptic because every time I read a label on the back of the bottle...hmmm all those warnings,kids rashes,and other sensitivities,especially if they stay longer time in the bath tub.
Therefore, I did some research and found this great product.
It's natural,safe and smells wonderful.It's called "Clearing foam bath" by Aura Cacia kids.
This foam bath contains 100%pure essential oils of Eucalyptus and Citrus,there is no synthetic colors no fragrances or preservatives.

Love for Cupcakes




Like every women(I think I can say that),I love chocolate and any fabulous dessert that has chocolate like "a secret ingredient".Living in Europe made my sweet tooth obsessed mostly with chocolate ice-cream,mousses,fantastic cakes,small delicate cookies,and don't want to forget amazing chocolate croissants.
Now, when I live in California I discovered fantastic sweet delight,cupcake.
So cute,convenient and tasty.Depending in what sweet mood you are that day cupcakes will be your perfect match,because they come in so many yummy flavors.
There is a great cupcake store and even more amazing cupcakes.
They bake their cupcakes from scratch every morning using best ingredients,always fresh and smelling fabulous. I have to say something about cupcake's best part-frosting.I would prefer to call him amazing cream.It is so yummy no wonder why this bakery picked this cute name.
If you are visiting Santa Monica or Burbank be sure to stop by and try this great dessert.

Well,our little bunch did a lot of research lately and finally found the winner:

Funny but instantly rewarding " The Tooth book" by Edward Miller





The Tooth Book:A Guide to Healthy Teeth and Gums by Edward Miller


From the publisher:
"Crunch!Munch!Most kids take their teeth for granted.However,without their pearly whites it would be much harder for them to eat,smile and talk.Edward Miller provides more than a mouthful of good advice on dental hygiene in this accessible guidebook that makes learning how to care for your teeth fun."

What I like about this book is the whole concept and sections: tooth decay,proper brushing techniques,flossing, history and funny parts like lost tooth traditions from different parts of the world.
Great book for every age, brush beginners or the older ones which forget how to do job properly.
You have to check out this one,kids will get more into whole brushing and care thing. Also book has fantastic and fun illustrations that will entertain your whole reading experience.
