Welcome to StorkNet's Family Life Cubby

What's New
     º Get Back to Family Dinner
Families today are busy. With after school sports and other activities driving our lives, a sit down dinner often falls off the "to-do list." But a family dinner is more than just eating vegetables: research shows that sitting down to dinner is an important protective factor in maintaining the health and well-being of your children.
     º Journaling Prompts for New Mothers
The most meaningful baby albums, scrapbooks, and journals go beyond the details of birthweight and time of day to capture the true emotion behind the birth. Here are some questions to help you remember the details, whether it was yesterday or years ago Sit with these questions and journal your way to poignant memories and the most sentimental of scrapbooks.
     º Ideas for a Dress-Up Themed Party
Dress-up themed parties are always a hit with kids. Children love to put on fancy clothes or fun costumes and enter a fantasy world. The most popular dress-up themes for girls are Princess Parties, while for boys it's Pirate Parties. Here are some suggestions for both.
     º Mothers Shouldn't Try For Perfection
Mothers shouldn't try for perfection because it's a set up for failure. Perfection creates an impossible ideal. By being imperfect, a mother helps her daughter learn to face the challenges and disappointments of life, which inevitably happen. Learn more from authors Linda Perlman Gordon and Susan Morris Shaffer.

At StorkNet, we're big fans of the Busy Book collection published by Meadowbrook Press. This latest addition to the series is a new favorite!
