Give Your Loved Ones Something Truly Special This Holiday – Send Them A Card

November 21, 2016 by UrbanMoms Leave a Comment

You might send your mom a text to thank her for all she does for you and the kids. You’ll probably ‘like’ your childhood friend’s picture she just posted on Facebook. Heck, if you’re feeling generous, who knows—maybe you’ll even write a little comment underneath it. You could do any one of those … [Read more...]

Batteries Included: Make The Magic Of The Holidays Last All Year

December 22, 2015 by UrbanMoms Leave a Comment

Picture this. Your kids counted down the days. They opened each window on their advent calendars, as December ticked by, painstakingly slowly.

My Toddler Is So Excited For Christmas—The Only Trouble Is, We’re Jewish

December 19, 2015 by Sheri Segal Glick Leave a Comment

Last week on the way home from preschool, my two-year-old mentioned how excited she was for Christmas. This would have been adorable, but for the fact that we are Jewish. So I told her we don't celebrate Christmas, that instead, we celebrate Hanukkah. She sighed the saddest little sigh and pouted … [Read more...]

Have Yourself A Very 80s Christmas: 12 Toys We All Wanted As Kids

December 9, 2015 by Heather Dixon 1 Comment

Every year there seems to be that one toy. The toy that kids and parents go absolutely out of their minds to get, while the rest of the universe can’t figure out what the big deal is. This year it’s Hatchimals. A while back it was Tickle Me Elmo… I don’t really get it. However, the Cabbage Patch … [Read more...]

There's nothing like Christmas to remind you how many people are involved in your child's life that you positively could not manage without.

November 28, 2015 by UrbanMoms 1 Comment

It’s something we look forward to every holiday season: Ross Petty’s latest show. Since 1996, Ross Petty productions have been bringing laugh-out-loud zaniness to the stage of Toronto’s the Elgin Theatre.

Elf on the Shelf: Just Another Way to Fail at Parenthood

November 28, 2015 by Kath 18 Comments

Because there weren't enough ways to feel completely inferior as a parent, someone had to go and invent the Elf on the Shelf. I already fail at Halloween, apparently, because I don't turn my house into the set of a horror movie for the entire month of October. And now, thanks to some … [Read more...]

Wild actress Reese Witherspoon did just that on Christmas Day this year. Witherspoon loved The Mindy … [Read more...]
