Night of the Living Cuddle Bunnies by Jonathan Rosen!
October is upon us!! With that comes my favorite tradition, inspired by Neil Gaiman – ‘All Hallows Read’ the exchange of scary books (with modifications for little ones). Writing a blog is kind of along the same lines where we get to try out fun new reads and rave about them on the net. I recommend this fun book for your inaugural ‘All Hallows Read’, wait for it…. Night of the Living Cuddle Bunnies by Jonathan Rosen! Written like a 12-year-old boy talks – its like being a kid again, with your eyes wide open – peeking behind the veil of childhood as only a kid can explain it. Finding THE…

123 Kids Fun Alphabet App Review
For those of you who are new here I babysit my 4 year old Granddaughter Alice full-time. Right now Alice is a sponge and has been for her entire four years! She learns so fast and is so anxious to learn that I want to do everything I can to encourage her and provide her with all the educational tools that I can. I know there is a lot of controversy over kids using the iPad so early in life, personally I think iPads are the future and can be so educational!! I believe by the time Alice is in school she will be ahead of the curve. Helllo Alphabet…
