    I’ve played many of these over the last few years; they’re all good fun. Now that I’ve got little girls, I try to encourage them to play these regular games, but ask them to think of ways in which the rules can be changed. It’s a great way to get them involved and make playtime learning time too 😉

    I was wondering for a large group of parent what would be something we can do the moms at my child school are on the older side and are bit more experience then myself so far what I’ve suggested has been good but ran out of ideas since there’s both male and females I suggested a spa date but didn’t get a lot of reply, had a play date when successful suggested we’d meet up for drinks no one was able to make it. Its a co op so this is something I was assigned to do please help if it helps its in San Carlos were majority of the parents live.


  6. Hi there! I could have sworn I’ve visited this web site before but after browsing
    through some of the posts I realized it’s new
    to me. Anyways, I’m certainly happy I stumbled upon it and I’ll
    be book-marking it and checking back often!
