No no no. The box is a Netgear Digital Entertainer Elite hooked into our LAN. The RAID is in our closet, also plugged into LAN. I think it's a Netgear RAID that is sold with the Digital Entertainer...
Well, I have a system like that with a separate one for Blu-ray, and the unit is in our bedroom closet while the TV and such are downstairs.
Guess what? I still get screen freezes and...
Besides the basics?
One of the BEST, and I mean BEST BEST BEST, purchases I ever made was a modular soft climber. You could just use pieces separately on the floor as an obstacle cour...
Yup, it was Guernsey's book! She still has a blog on ongoing research, I think. If anyone is interested, just google "Lisa Guernsey."
I read Lise Eliot's book around 2.5 years ago, and...
The AAP said "screen time," so they meant all 2D screen time including computer monitors for online content (not just videos), video games via computer/console, etc. etc. etc.

"You can also introduce the idea of the limit; moving the high chair means you are finished eating, and you get taken out"
That's exactly what they want you to do by the way. ;-)
You can always build it smaller. And yes, of course, you have to round corners and put some padding here and there. Safety features don't destroy the fun factor for kids.
You know, I am very interested in this gadget for my home theater. I have this Netgear Digital Entertainer thingy (which is one of those on-demand movie file servers), and I am NOT impressed with h...
I love it. It's a good way to use cubic space in a room, which doesn't get used as often as I'd like, and it's kind of like an indoor playground. See, when I first looked at the first picture, I th...
I have buyer's remorse right now. I didn't even make the purchase! My husband bought some expensive movie-on-demand system (you transfer your videos to a file server), and that thing hiccups and st...
The spacing becomes less and less important when your children start school and make friends with their peers, then they begin to have a preference for their peers as playmates.
Interesting. The IKEA in East Palo Alto requires toddlers/tots to be pottytrained, so I don't see this as an option for some parents. I'm not sure about the one in Emeryville.
$2380 for a child womb chair? I'm sure there is a luxury market for this and princess beds that cost $20,000, but honestly, as a reader, I'd rather see good affordable designs.
We try not to accumulate stuff. I'm serious. So for people with kids, like us, have a rule that for every toy that comes in, two go out to your donation pile. Or make it three. Same for adults in t...
OK, this is for those who want to see my in-ceiling speakers -- they are covered with grills and still unpainted (because we are sort of busy with other things). They are above our family-playroom,...

He's too young for this one, but for the near future, when you will want to teach him it's OK to leave the room/enter mom and dad's room:

What I love about this room is that it's a kid's room!

I don't have one, but if I did, it would be a toy, and we'd put cars on it. And it would play records.
Anything that catches the floor can tip. It's better to put something under the legs to let the chairs slide.
