Toddler/preschooler Swimming Lessons

My husband wants to have our daughter, who will be 3 in a couple months, start swim lessons. I'm not sure. In the summer time we go to the beach and our neighborhood pool in the summer I encourage her to be in the water. We play in the water, I help her "float," etc. So she is comfortable in water and learning some basic things. My questions are: Would swim lessons at this age be much more than that? (getting her comfortable in the water and using her body in it) What's the ideal age to take swim lessons where she will actually...

First Birthday Party Activities

I am having my son's first birthday party on March 8th. Of course, there will be mostly adults, but we have at least 11 kids attending also. They range in age from 10 months to 11 years old. The party will only be 1 1/2 to 2 hours, but I'm not sure what to plan to keep all of the kids occupied. I will probably have some toys available for the younger ones (hoping that no one has purchased any of these toys for his gift). But I'm not sure of what to do for the 5, 7, 9, 10 and two 11 year olds and the adults. We will only be serving finger...

Looking for Preschool

I just recently moved to Olathe and I'm looking for a preschool. My daughter is 3-1/2, will be 4 in December. She went to a preschool last year 2 days a week from 8:25-11:15 AM, and I'm looking for something similar that doesn't cost an insane amount of money. I'm not looking for daycare, at least not right now. Does anybody know of any good preschools? Thanks.

BOB Revolution Stroller

I am in the market for a BOB Revolution stroller and have two questions. 1. I have a 2 year old and I am training to walk a half marathon in October. I've been finding rougher terrain that my Jeep stroller doesn't seem to be handling (sliding to the side on turns and sliding down when going up hills with lose gravel/dirt) and I'm wondering if the BOB Revolution will handle this terrain better. 2. We are planning to have a second child and I am planning to continue walking a lot, training for more half marathons and finding new trails...

TV And Video

There was a post up earlier this week which got me thinking about our TV viewing, and I have a follow up questions for all you great Mama's :) My son is nearly 3. We watch little TV, Sesame Street, Clifford, or George on PBS (rarely - like once very 2 weeks he'll watch one of these 3 on PBS) and he loves Bob the Builder. We have 4 Bob DVD's and when he is allowed TV time, that is usually what he chooses. He gets a little TV time about 3 days a week, and MOST of these days he chooses Bob. My question is, should I be encouraging...

Television Watching and Small Children

Can I be honest here? I feel like my kids are watching too much t.v. They wake up and start watching t.v. I think they watch about an hour in the morning before breakfast. Then, we're off on our day, wherever that may take us....my oldest goes to preschool 3 days a week. I go to the gym most mornings. Then, while I make lunch, they watch another hour or so....usually Nick Jr. type shows. After lunch, it's nap time/quiet time. After nap, they watch about another hour while we wait for the baby to wake up. Then, we play, errands,...
