When you’ve got two mixed-size dogs in your house, it can be a balancing act finding the right toys that keep them interested and engaged, appeal to their individual quirks, play styles and, ideally, also won’t be shredded by either dog in seconds. What’s a doting dog mom to do when a toy that might last weeks with one dog could meet a messy, destructive end in 15 minutes with the other?...

The holidays (from Thanksgiving all the way through Super Bowl Sunday) are the best, right? Friends, family, warmth, happiness — and, of course, food. That last part, though, can be a bit of a problem, especially when you overdo your meals and wind up feeling sluggish and decidedly not great because you’ve overeaten. While we all know moderation is the key to happiness and comfort (as far as our tummies go), it can be far too easy to get carried away and be a major glutton at a holiday shindig....

You don’t expect to have a child born with a physical disability. And when I was born, in the late 1970s, it was a delivery-day surprise for my parents. Ultrasounds were only just starting to be done, and even then, no one could tell that the fingers on my right hand were not curled up but were, in fact, missing. There was also no internet for my mother to go to for answers or any online community for her to connect with....

There are a few things that are synonymous with the holidays – mainly friends, family, food, and drink. ‘Drink’ typically implies alcohol – glasses of wine being served at Christmas dinner, martinis at cocktail hour at your holiday work party, and, of course, champagne at midnight on New Year’s Eve. It’s easy to forget that not everyone wants to drink alcohol, and with sober curiosity increasing (a 2022 survey showed that 22 percent of consumers are cutting back on consuming alcohol and drinking less) there’s a high chance that you have a friend who is sober during the holidays....

It was 2010 when author Sharon M. Draper introduced readers to Melody, an 11-year-old girl with cerebral palsy, in the book Out of My Mind. The character immediately resonated with readers not only nationwide, but worldwide. The book has been translated into 22 different languages and has had a steady spot on the New York Times bestseller list for years. So what made this book so special? We’ll say it’s the candid and gripping story of a fifth-grade girl who is so very intelligent, but she can’t walk, talk or write, so she’s frustrated by the physical limitations and misunderstandings that happen in her world....

On the latest episode of the Armchair Expert, celebrity dad and multi-hyphenate superstar Justin Timberlake bonds with podcast host extraordinaire Dax Shepard about navigating masculinity and raising kids in a world with gender norms that are, thankfully, so different from when they were kids.

Like their parents and aunts before them, the Kardashian children have entered the murky depths of the cultural appropriation debate, thanks to an Instagram Story Scott Disick posted over the weekend, showing some of them performing a Māori Haka dance. Reactions to the video are so mixed, we thought this was a good chance to discuss opinions on what’s good and bad about learning dances from another culture. On Saturday, Disick posted a video of daughter Penelope, Kim Kardashian-West’s daughter North and son Saint, and two other unidentified children on a set of stairs dancing the “Ka Mate” a Māori war dance made famous by the New Zealand rugby team the All Blacks, according to the New Zealand Herald....

Grab your coziest blanket and all the marshmallows that can fit in an oversized mug. Kristoffer Polaha, who’s starred in an epic sixteen Hallmark films, has another on-screen treat up his sleeve. This time, it’s a holiday movie called We Wish You a Married Christmas, out on October 22, which tells the story of a couple who are having trouble connecting. They try to reignite their spark at a quaint small-town inn and the previews promise candy canes, stolen kisses and a very cute alpaca....

Lunar New Year is upon us — a holiday celebrated by over 1.5 billion people worldwide. For my Chinese American family, our table will be laden with mountains of steaming homemade dumplings and shiny garlicky greens for wealth, a whole fish for abundance, sweet sticky rice cakes for togetherness, and so much more. Festive gold and red envelopes filled with lucky money will be gifted to the excited kids, who will be donning their new clothes....

From the millions of followers on social media to the massive projects they’re involved in, movie stars like Nicole Kidman have an overwhelmingly large platform and influence, whether they like it or not. And, with so much power, comes the pressure to speak out about important issues. Most recently, the Moulin Rouge actress is receiving backlash for not addressing the disturbing Balenciaga children’s campaign that depicted kids with teddy bears dressed in bondage gear....

She’s effortlessly cool and the kind of star whose style you always want to copy, so of course we all want to tour Jenna Dewan’s home. Blame it on our inner voyeur. Blame it on the fact that we’ve always wondered how her interior design might reflect her laidback, modern bohemian vibe. But either way, join us in being perhaps overly excited about the fact the Flirty Dancing host is inviting us all inside the chic new LA digs she shares with boyfriend Steve Kazee, daughter Everly and, soon, the couple’s first child together....

By the time they hit the toddler years, your child has no doubt found out how awesome your iPad or tablet is. Maybe they even have a special kids tablet of their own. With online learning so prevalent and kids’ programming just a couple of finger taps away, toddlers spend some time on tablets. A lot of noise can come out of those tablets at inconvenient times, like when you’re on a conference call or a six-hour-long drive....
