The Mommy MD Guide to the Toddler Years
A new book filled with more than 900 tips that 62 doctors, who are also mothers use, for their own families
To create this book, we talked with doctors who are also mothers about how they made it through their own children’s toddler years. We talked with ob.-gyns, pediatricians, family physicians, cardiologists, dermatologist, psychiatrists, and more. And they’re all moms; some are even grand moms! These women have both their medical expertise and parenting experiences to draw from; they’re experts squared. If they used a tip, you can bet it’ll work for you too.
This book offers moms advice on all of the challenges–and also the celebrations–of the toddler years. We talk about sleep, feeding, and potty training and also trips, parties, and play dates!
Mom Says: I am obviously impressed, or it wouldn’t be in the Holiday Gift Guide. While this isn’t actually a Toddler item, it fits because it should go to Mom’s of Toddlers. LOL! Though my kids are older (Tank is the baby at 6), I still read some things that I didn’t know. Honestly, this is a must-have for every parent!

Tegu Magnetic Blocks Pocket Pouch
The Tegu Pocket Pouch includes eight magnetic wooden blocks made from sustainably-harvested wood. Curiously attractive, brilliantly simple and naturally safe, the Pocket Pouch will keep your little one entertained for hours whenever you’re on the move.
Tegu was started to create hope, purpose and opportunity in parts of the developing world. With your help, we continue to grow the important work of creating employment opportunities, respecting and renewing the environment, and providing for education in Honduras.
Mom Says: This is really a beautiful set of blocks. Thomas (age 6) has spent a bunch of hours building and “racing” the blocks all over the place. With the pouch, this is perfect to throw in my purse and pull out when a little entertainment is needed!

A Collection of Just So Stories
With vivid characters and a hysterically funny choice of words, Rudyard Kipling’s beloved stories “explain” how camels got humps, great whales got tiny throats, elephants got trunks and more. Written by Rudyard Kipling and read unabridged by Jim Weiss.
These time-tested classics cause us to look at accepted qualities in new and creative ways, and even better, make us laugh out loud. With his menagerie of voices and warm, witty narrative presence, Jim Weiss brings Kipling’s own words to life. The result is a wondrously charming recording that is certain to become an all-time favorite for listeners of all ages.
Mom Says: We are readers in our house… seriously! I broke my Kindle and had a panic attack! I ordered a new one and paid a crazy amount of money for over-night shipping. LOL! Thomas reads but it isn’t really great at it yet, so he is always asking us to read to him. If you have a kid that loves books as much as I do, then you understand how tired your voice can get after awhile. I love this set from Greathall Productions because I can give it to Thomas and he can entertain himself for a bit leaving me free to do other things. As an actress myself (long story) I am the one that gets called on to read. I do voices and such – Jim does also! It is a very entertaining CD!

You may want to check out the website: http://www.GennaRussKids.com and let your followers know about it. They have 2 little goats( known as kids) and their names are Genna and Russ…they are the generous kids! It’s too cute…and it’s educational because their products teach kids how to give, care and share! Now that’s a gift that has purpose…and they give money to children’s charities.
Happy Holidays!

I love the blocks!
Lindsay @ Laughing Lindsay says
The blocks look great. I think they would be great for me if I get to teach the lower grades as they are fun and educational. The guides seem helpful for moms with kids of any age. It’s always good to ask a professional what their thoughts on a topic are.
