During a recent shopping trip to Anthropologie, I picked up this book and started thumbing through it while I was waiting in line.
Their tricky marketing ploy worked. I loved the book and bought it. How could I pass it up when it started out like this:
" The first time you hold your newborn baby in your arms, the road ahead looks endless. But the reality is that life passes quickly, and that sweet-faced infant will be in your care only a fraction of time. It is so important to spend your moments with your children well"...
It is perfect if you need some creative FHE ideas or just need fun activities to do with your kids. Here is just a tidbit..
101 THINGS YOU SHOULD DO
BEFORE YOUR KIDS LEAVE
HOME is packed with ideas and
advice designed to help parents
prepare their children for life out
in the world, while making sure
that both parents and kids enjoy
every precious moment. From
staging a food fight to serving in
a soup kitchen, from planning a
"tour de neighborhood" bike race
to telling family stories, some suggestions
are fun, some challenging,
and others practical--but all will
inspire parents with ideas for family
time before their kids leave the nest.
You can find this book at your local Anthropologie (but it may cost you a few outfits more than the $12.99 price) or here.
