When you’re wading through Pinterest ideas in search of your next big project, you come across a lot of junky knick knacks. This unfortunate situation sometimes makes it hard to decipher which DIYs are a waste of time and which ones are legit — and leads you to skip over some pins that might be cool. In particular, how many times have you glossed over washi tape crafts simply because you weren’t really sure what washi tape is?...

Who else remembers having in-depth conversations on the playground about catching AIDS by kissing? Who caught snippets of the evening news or overheard conversations among adults about their beloved celebrities dying of the disease? On this World AIDS Day, I’m suddenly looking back at how children learned of that epidemic in the ’80s and realizing there are so many lessons it can teach us when it comes to our own kids, the COVID-19 pandemic, and how we treat other people....

Now that we’ve firmly exited that hyped-up, hyper-active Sagittarius part of the winter (anyone else tired? I’m tired), it’s time to celebrate the vibes of Capricorn and all they can do for you in your sex life. So gear up and direct your square-pupilled goat gaze on the prize. And this season in particular, as you think and reflect on things you’ve done and things (and people) you want to do, it’s fine if you’re feeling a bit bossy and in the mood to get what you want....

Ever since the COVID-19 pandemic began, the infection rate hasn’t been the only number that has surged in the United States. Depression and anxiety have understandably been on the rise as well. It’s also no secret that the data involving the mental health of mothers is staggering. As a mom who battles depression and anxiety, I was not immune to those figures, especially considering that I was in an unfortunate situation for several months that compounded my treatment options: Shortly before the pandemic hit in March, I had actually been preparing to transition away from my mental-health provider, a male psychiatrist with whom I just hadn’t been clicking....

For so many kids growing up in America, watching Disney princess movies and reading Disney princess stories has long been the norm — a tradition that was hardly broken or challenged. But in recent decades the idea of princesses being saved by a prince has come under scrutiny. It’s often argued that Disney princess culture — the idea of the “damsel in distress” — can be harmful to children when it comes to their own self-esteem, as well as the way they see gender and gender roles....

Masks are the new normal for adults going out in public during the coronavirus pandemic, after the CDC issued its guidelines on face coverings earlier this month. But many parents have been wondering whether they’re supposed to be wrestling tiny masks and bandannas onto their children, when they venture out for exercise or necessary errands. Should the same rules apply to our littlest potential virus hosts? Here’s the short answer from the CDC:...

Baby names that mean “ice” or “snow” are the coolest names around – quite literally! Wintry weather has been a huge part of the human existence since, well, the beginning of human existence. Paleolithic-era cave paintings contain the first recorded evidence of skis (used for ease of movement across icy terrain, not sport). Ancient Greek and Roman mythology had their own gods and goddesses of ice, snow, and winter weather. There are tons of songs, stories, and poems throughout history about ice and snow — and is it any wonder?...

If I ran the internet, we would have an introductory course before people could write about their kids or share parenting advice online. The one and only lesson: Kids develop in different ways, at different speeds, and what worked for yours may not work for everyone else’s.

Britney Spears woke up yesterday knowing it was the day she would marry the man she loves: her boyfriend since 2017 and fiancé since Sept. 2021, Sam Asghari. Hours after that, the rest of the world found out that she was preparing for an intimate 60-person ceremony at her home and rushed to follow updates on her big day — which then hit a twist neither Spears nor her fans could have seen coming....

Christina Anstead’s dating life has been the subject of fascination for years now, not least due to her unconventional choice to co-star with ex-husband Tarek El Moussa in reality show Flip or Flop long after their romance fizzled. But it was another show of Christina’s, Christina on the Coast, that introduced us to her more recent ex-husband Ant Anstead, who seemed for a while like the happily-ever-after she had been looking for....

Coronavirus has taken a lot from us, and it’s only May. It has taken away some freedom, and far too many loved ones. It has taken away hugs and a sense of security. For kids, it has taken away simple pleasures like going out for ice cream or having a go on the swings at the park. But amidst all of the uncertainty and fear, it has given my family something we didn’t know we could get back: time....

We all know that Melania Trump isn’t a big of the holidays, but she sure has kept herself busy during the holiday season. Last month she revealed the new White House holiday decor and on Saturday she shared a new, more intimate look at some of the decorations she has chosen for her final Christmas at the White House. But holiday decor isn’t the only thing Melania has been working on lately because today we learned that she has completed her final White House renovations: a makeover of the White House tennis courts and the addition of a new building on the tennis pavilion....
