Beautiful! And of course there is no TV. There are TVs in playrooms?

Can I still pop in as a beta tester? :)

We co-slept (unplanned) until Felix was 9 months. I loved it. Definitely worked well with breastfeeding. Then our bed just got too small for three of us and we transitioned him over to his own bed. Now we sleep separately, except, like the reader above, in the early morning. We are slowly working on weaning (at 22 months) and all that seems to be left is the early morning nursing. We love that extra 30 minutes of snooze time.

I think for the next baby I would like to get a side-car co-sleeper. As much as it was great to sleep together, Felix had a hard time learning to fall asleep on his own and sleep all night long. But who knows how much of that was personality, or first-time parent syndrome, or co-sleeping, or something else.

Honestly, perhaps it was the problem with the one we bought but, we have that push toy and it does not work well. My son had a lot of trouble pushing it as it didn't roll that well. The little characters are supposed too pop out and they seemed to stick a bit. We were quite disappointed. We have another great push toy from Vilac that looks like a frog.

The pull toys look really cute though!

And me too! I would love love love this! Not only for my kids but to use with my students as well!

I love these too! I agree with tgray99 - great for a classroom! Off to check them out!

I love our Maclaren Quest. It is ideal for the Paris metro where there is a serious lack of escalators or elevators - It's not a problem because I can carry Felix and the stroller all at once. I think I would like to get the Techno XT the next time around. There are just a few more features that I like: better wheels, bigger shade/rain protection, higher handles, and the seat goes completely flat. And it really isn't that much heavier if heavier at all.

So cool! Thanks for the links!

I was just about to mention lemons but bkT beat me to it! Plus a glass and quill pen is not required so it is fun for everyone!

Here is a link to some directions from National Geographic.

This is a great link! I would never have thought to look to National Geographic kids for art and crafts activities. Even better with a recycling theme!
