We've been enjoying our Bright Starts Baby Play Place--cheaper than Haba and more versatile, I think. However neither Haba or mine is made to roll up and travel--that seems to be the beauty of these.

Thank you, everyone. I'm such a light sleeper that we already have an air purifier and humidifier running, AND I wear earplugs and put a buckwheat pillow over my head! I forgot to mention that we...

I started out intending to follow "no screen time until age 2" but when my 1 year old started waking at 5:30 am crying, we started letting her watch Blues Clues out of desperation. Slowly, the rul...

Can anyone help me? Sometime within the last year AT posted a media cabinet where a flat screen TV could be raised out of it on an arm that also swiveled around. It was beautiful and now it is ju...

Well, I'm certainly in the minority here, but I say yawn for books (we always get a ton--and personally I prefer the library.) I love books but we have sooooo many. And you can get them all for f...

I've been interested in this one http://www.viatoybox.com/products/prodDetail.php?id_prd=1001 from Via Toy Box. It is $29...

Drives me crazy that these "tips" contradict themselves...number 1 says "feed every 4 hours at night" then number 2 says "don't follow a feeding schedule" Am I the only one who finds those two co...

How come so many people chose "other" instead of option 5 "I (or my spouse) stay at home part-time, use childcare part-time" Doppleganger, auburn2001grad, budino...isn't that what you are describing?

I got one for $20 from Ikea that came with two chairs. I didn't have a good idea of how my daughter would want to play (like listed above) so decided to be cheap at first. Right now she likes to ...

Also--a cup of ice is a great exotic toy!

I have found the Sit-n-stroll carseat/stroller all in one to be worth its weight in gold. Unlike PatJ, I have never had to explain/defend it. I can't imagine not having a carseat while traveling-...

Well said!

As the poster who set off the flurry of snarkitude, I apologize for any hurt feelings. I did not realize that Anne was a respected contributor to this blog. I was just posting my gut reaction on ...

I know this sounds obnoxious, but I feel bad for the client who is paying a professional who is then asking the audience of a blog to make the design decisions.

I second going to the lighting stores on Bowery--they ordered a new shade for me.

I want that table--where is it from?

I think our is called a Friedrich Quietmaster or something--I know "quiet" is in the name and it is MUCH quieter than the GE we had. Also way more expensive.

I second the toy stroller. I have yet to meet a kid that doesn't want to play with it right away. One year later ours is still a huge favorite. Don't leave boys out of the fun!

We have a toddler and a not 100% housetrained dog--FLOR has been great for our living room. Love it.

I was in junior high when this movie came out, and I was sure that when I was a "grown up" like the characters in this movie, I would have an apartment just like Jules. And at some point I would b...
