The Filth Wizards are true geniuses. The beauty of this project is its indestructibility--it won't rip or tear. The liner must cost all of $4 for a PVC-free one. It can go outside or in the garage. And anyone who's afraid of the offgassing potential of Sharpies is due for a long, anxious parenting ride indeed. Shower Curtain Play Mat Filth Wizardry |

Yes, yes, yes! It's great for babies who want to do what the big kids are doing, but who still eat the paint. And no, I do not want her painting with pudding, thanks. Mess-Free Finger Painting with a Plastic Bag Lovesome |

Garbanzo beans also fry up nicely. I use canned ones when I am short on time. Delicious! Recipe: Crispy Pan-Fried Beans with Wilted Greens |

It's pretty easy to say, "Just go without it," when your child is your first, or if you have a relatively complacent child. But if you have two close together, or a danger-seeker who can't be set down for even a moment, the need for a place to keep them safe and contained for a minute is a real one. I never had an exersaucer with my first baby--when she wanted to stand up, I just helped her and stood by her, keeping her from falling. Once I had a three year old, however, the second baby needed a few more places to be stashed. You may not need to use the bathroom, but your second child may need to wait while you help your elder child or children! Do Non-Hideous Baby Bouncers & Swings Exist? Good Questions |

People often complain about the "environmental insensitivity" of the plastic exersaucers and bouncers, but I think those people are dead wrong. They last forever, can easily be cleaned, and can be passed from baby to baby (to baby to baby...) We inherited ours from a curb-side free pile and will doubtless send it along in the same way.

We've been super happy with our davinci brand mini-crib. We have the Kalani, I believe. It's only as wide as a twin bed, and in fact, can be converted to a twin when you're ready for that. It has fit our children until they were 2.5 or 3 and ready for a toddler bed. It is solid pine with a non-toxic finish and was very reasonably priced--about $149 or so, I believe.

If they are open to change, buy an electric knife sharpener and show them how to use it. Or even better, if they live in an area where they can take cooking classes, investigate the possibility of a knife skills class. Once a person actually knows how to use a knife, they will prefer a sharp one every time. How To Cope With Your Parents' Dull Knives |

Why not use them? Using silver often, hand washing it and drying it with a soft cloth is the best way to preserve it. Creative Display of Inherited Silver? Good Questions |
