Dear Diary,
We put up our first guest Article this month. You can find it just below the list of articles in the right menu.
If you’re a writer (or know someone who is) and would like to contribute family related articles that are newsworthy, interesting, and/or entertaining for our website, please contact us.
And let us know what you think of the April article. We met the author, Robert Jirda, by happenstance on a forum. ^.^

Gifts for Teacher
Posted On 2012-12-15 , 11:40 AM
Dear Diary,
Christmas is the perfect time to earn some points with the teachers - well, you never know, a B+ is better than a B- or a B, wouldn't you agree? So here are some suggestions - easy and light on the budget...
Holiday gifts teachers like:
Food gifts and Christmas tree ornaments are some of the most frequently mentioned gifts teachers say they like. An ornament with the child's name on it will remind the teacher of that child in years to come.
Other gifts teachers favor:
 |
|
- Gift certificates for book stores or restaurants
- Albums filled with classroom photos
- Picture frames
- Note cards
- Stationery
- Paper cubes
- Sticky notes
- Art supplies
- Special pens
- Tote bags
|
What counts is the thought involved, teachers say. Some fondly remembered gifts: M&Ms, two walnuts, a peacock feather, and cookies. ^.^ NOTE: Check out some of the holiday cookies and treats on our Pinterest Board Christmas Goodies!

New Bulletin Buzz Format
Dear Diary:
 This has to do with our website which we usually blog about under the category of Anime Themes regarding headers, banners, applications, etc. And as you know we use kid-safe anime images to add to the fun.
With that in mind, we have taken a new approach to our Bulletin Buzz page by breaking it down into sub-pages. The main page focuses on Kids in the News. The sub-pages (which you can see listed at the bottom of each page) include:
- Arts & Crafts
- Education
- Entertainemnt
- Family
- Games &Toys
- Gizmos
- Safety and Security
In addition, each page will contain an archive for favorite items that have been nudged aside for the latest buzz, but too interesting to delete, so to speak. But not to worry, you'll still see kid-friendly anime images on every page, including the new Title Bars.
So check them out when you get a chance - the new - and the old and interesting. If we're missing something you'd like to see on our website, let us know. As always, fresh ideas are always welcomed and appreciated.

Getting Puppy-Power
Posted On 2010-07-16 , 3:36 PM
Dear Diary,
We just came across a short and sweet article about teaching kids how to play the compliment game with puppy-power... a winning combination, wouldn't you say?
Puppy-power is a fun way of learning the social-emotional skills that all kids need as they grow into adulthood. See how it helps kids join and relate with others.
For more ways to encourage positive behavior in children, check out the book below.
