Being a mommy of four kids, I can so relate with Levy when she said: “You need to be creative in helping your child. My son easily gets bored so I am always on the look out to find new and exciting things and activities for him to do.” – Improve your child’s Fine Motor Skills 

Just like her, I am always on the look out for activities that will be of much interest to my kids. From her article, I think it’s playing with clay that my kids enjoy the most. Of course, I allow them from time to time to eplore the computer. It is very timely that I chanced upon Mommy Mauie’s article about Online Reputation and what we can do as parents in taking care of our kids’ online reputation. As Mauie puts it, “A clean online reputation is just as important as taking care of your reputation in the offline world.”

Speaking of the kids, you might want to check Mommy Jem’s post on Who should get Typhoid Vaccine and When? Learn why your kid should need it and when.
