The Crazy Ways Kids Rename Things (30+ Pictures)
My son walked up to me recently and asked me where the “burger shovel” was. After I was done chuckling, I asked him what he needed a spatula for.

Don’t Be Afraid Of The Dark (Amazing Video)
The ability for kids to bring toys and objects to life is one of their coolest super powers.

Adorablized Words: A Guide to Kids’ Pronunciation
Something wonderfully unexpected happened last week. I posted about how my 5yo says pesketti an meapbals, and a crap ton of you shared YOUR OWN kid’s adorablized words.

Nature doesn’t forgive you for not […]
The Spitty Thumb
Birds do courtship dances without a single lesson. A spider knows how to spin a web without ever having seen one. In much the same way (except not as nasty as spiders), I believe the Spitty Thumb is an action pattern that’s genetically coded into parents. It has its stimulus. Kids. They’re absolute schmutz and […]
