I was a huge Winnie The Pooh fan growing up. I still have one of my Pooh dolls, of course his original outfit is long gone, and he’s been well loved but he’s still holding together. I was excited to see there’s a new Winnie The Pooh book coming out October 5th from Dutton Children’s Books.
The book titled “Return to the Hundred Acre Wood,” will be the first authorized sequel to A.A. Milne’s Winnie-the-Pooh and The House At Pooh Corner in more than 80 years. This is the first glimpse readers will have of the new book, which was announced …read more

Each of the stories refers to situations children often find themselves in. My son’s favorite is Roo’s New Babysitter, which makes sense because he is seldom away from me and is still new to the idea of spending time with other people on his own. Hopefully, Pooh’s First Day of School will help him transition to a …read more

We are on the last day or so of our chicken pox quarantine, finally! Before these past 14 days in the house with the kids is just a distant memory, I wanted to share with you a couple of the videos that we’ve seen 5 (or 15) times that are still enjoyable enough to sit through.
The first is Disney’s Peter Pan: Return to Never Land. I’m never much one for movie sequels, especially of the animated nature. They always seem to be an effort by the studios to just make a buck off of the …read more
