a few ideas for loving homes with more energy than me

kids

It’s a hurricane in there

Jamie like a lot of other parents has this problem of coming up with ideas but then losing them in the wild sweeping winds that blow through our heads each day.  So here are three of hers, gathered:

Vanity blog books.  A service of printing out and binding all of the contents of a blog into a cool little book.  Something to keep or share with the non-digital set.

The Napping Lot.  A parking lot where people with sleeping babies in the car could come hang out together, maybe get a little coffee or a snack and a kiosk, or read and trade some magazines.

The third idea… what was it… it’s blown away already.  It was cool though.

My Little Shofar

My Little Shofar prototypeTekiah, Teruah, Shevarim — it takes years to learn how to blow a Shofar and in the end do our little ones have the lungs for a ear blasting Tekiah Gedolah! They do now. We’ll they would if someone would make the ever useful My Little Shofar. Only 3 buttons but the combinations are endless.

stroller rear-view mirror

strollers should have a mirror attached to the front, to allow you to see around corners and into traffic when you are crossing the street. not actually a rear-view, it’s a side-view.

somebody should make one of those.
