Childhood Is Calling...Great Website for Kids and Parents!

Was watching a Cocoa Krispies commercial tonight and at the end the spot, a website called childhoodiscalling.com popped up.  So I did what any Pavlovian parent would do...I grabbed my laptop and went right to the website and I have to say...it's great!  It's got all kinds of online games, activities and recipes you can create with your kids featuring Snap, Crackle & Pop.  My son, who is a Cocoa Krispies fanatic, had a blast playing on the site, making music with spoons, winning a matching game and creating an outfit he was able to print out on our computer.  Who knew that cereal has the potential to become the new Webkinz?

The Cosbys, Valerie Bertinelli, The New Earth and Rick Springfield! All on Oprah!

Just kicking back today watching "Oprah" and remembering why I loved her show when I used to watch it way back when.  She gets the best guests - today it was Sean Combs and Phylicia Rashad who star in "A Raisin in the Sun."   Watching Rashad made me realize how much I used to love to watch her on "The Cosby Show" - she truly was the ultimate working mom way back when.  And then, Sean Combs talked about the importance of family over money.  Hey, P. Diddy, you're a really cool guy.

Next there was a preview for a show featuring Valerie Bertinelli - can't wait to see that one considering I joined Jenny Craig when I found out she lost 40 pounds on the weight loss plan (I've lost 15 so far).  Then, they mentioned Rick Springfield will be on and he'll be singing "Jessie's Girl" - I am so there.  

Next up, they just mentioned their Oprah book pick, A New Earth which is at the top of the best seller list.  All kinds of celebrities are raving about it.  I guess this is the 2008 version of The Secret so it's obviously going to sell a gazillion copies.  For more details on all the great stuff coming up on Oprah, click here.

Celebrity Supernanny!

Just found out that singer Wendy Wilson is opening her home to America's favorite Supernanny, Jo Frost tonight on ABC.  It seems the mom of four found her older kids regressing when she gave birth to twins and was in need of an expert to get things back in order at home pronto before she and sister Carnie went out on tour.  If only Britney Spears family had called Jo instead of Dr. Phil, things could have turned out a lot differently.
