We have four children, three of which are potty trained. The youngest has only a year old, so we're cutting him some slack. Potty training the other three kids was an individual experience with each child.Our firstborn was not cooperative for any of the usual potty training drills. He didn't want to practice and didn't want to use a training potty. He was the same way when it came to weening him from breast milk; he wouldn't eat baby food and wanted whatever it was we had on our plates. No intermediate steps for him, just straight to "grown-up" way of doing things. In the end, he started wanting to use the potty just as soon as he was tall enough to get on the toilet himself. It was a bit frustrating, because he was in diapers a little longer than we wanted, but when he was ready, he was ready and there was no looking back.Our next child was different in that she wanted to do anything that her older brother was doing. There is about a two-year age difference between them, so as soon as he was using the potty, she wanted to try it as well. She was still a little too small, so we encouraged her to wait and try other training methods, but not being one to be bested, she...more

I remember the part about dairy because whenever we were over at my grandmother's house, we had two types of ice cream; regular ice cream and "Andy's ice cream." Andy's ice cream was really a nondairy whipped cream that our...more
Remodeling your children's play area can be a fun, yet overwhelming prospect. What things can change the space yet leave it looking fresh and new? Paint is one of the easiest things to change the look of a room. It should be easily cleanable. Prepare the wall to be painted by cleaning it. Wash it with a mixture of dish soap, warm water and a small amount of ammonia. This helps remove the natural oils that small hands often leave on the walls. Often permanent marker remains after this washing. Isopropyl alcohol will sometimes remove marker with a bit of rubbing.Another thing that can change the appearance of a play space easily is updating the the furniture and toy storage area. New shelves and a set of chairs and a table can provide a more cohesive structure than a mishmash of random pieces that have been acquired over the years. A single unifying theme or color can be applied to the existing items decorating the room or you can purchase new furniture.When designing a space for your children, it is important to remember to use furniture and furnishings that are appropriate for their size and use. Children's Factory and Jonti Craft are two manufacturers of chairs, tables and other...more
