To get my son to brush his teeth, I have put a stepstool at the sink for him to stand on and given him a toothbrush with his favorite characters. I made a toothbrushing song which goes: "This is how we brush our teeth (shish shish...

My son is finally playing soccer! I am so excited about this. If you're like me and have a busy body 3 year old, then this is the perfect solution to do something with all that energy. Tuesday was the first day and he loved it. We...
