Whether you’re the scrapbooking type, or a less-organized but still sentimental parent, you may be considering how to get the perfect tiny newborn footprint onto paper. Maybe you’ll even be using it for a tattoo one day. This used to be an easy feat, since hospitals would automatically stamp your baby’s feet for identification purposes, but that’s become obsolete. That’s fine, because it’s totally possible and perfectly safe to get a clean stamp right at home — and have a little squirmy baby fun while you’re at it....

We are under no illusion that the average parent can give their baby everything that Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom plan to provide for their baby girl. And that’s OK! You don’t need multiple estates and world fame to raise a kid. If, however, you just watched Katy Perry’s Smile Sunday tour of her baby’s nursery and felt a twinge of jealousy, we have some excellent news for you: Much of it is within your reach....

When I first met Snowpiercer’s Mickey Sumner, it was at a film festival in Savannah, where she was discussing her directorial debut, I’m Listening. I chose to open with, “Hi, I hate your character on Snowpiercer so much.” What I meant was, Sumner is so incredibly good at playing Bess Till, a seemingly bad character, that it was hard to remember she was acting. Of course, I never got to the part about how good she was....

Querida, First, let me smile with you. You may be counting down the days until Mother’s Day to be in celebration and joy. You may be looking forward to being celebrated this month, to getting cafecito in bed, to taking your mom to IHOP because that’s where she likes to go, to calling your tias or madrina to thank them for being your other mamis. You may be feeling warmly about your abuelita, whether she’s physically here or otherwise, or excited to toast with your comadres in recognition of the endless labor in the work of mothering and in appreciation of each other....

My oldest son is leaving for college. He’s more than ready. George can’t wait to live with his peers, not his parents. And he really wants to go to school – he’s spent hours reading the course catalog and he’s made a spreadsheet to figure out how to fit in all the classes he’s excited to take. Our family will miss him. I will miss him. Even when he’s in his most sloppy, forgetful, self-centered teenager moments, George is a person I love to be with and makes our foursome complete....

With so many incredible skincare options lining store shelves these days, it can feel downright dizzying to try and find something that will meet your skin’s unique needs while also being mindful of your budget.

Texas mother Jackie Pham Nguyen is living every parents’ worst nightmare in real-time. After spending an idyllic day frolicking in the snow, playing board games, and enjoying a day free from responsibilities, Nguyen and her three children, Colette, 5, Edison, 8, and Olivia, 11, welcomed Nguyen’s mother Loan Le, 75, to stay the night. Le’s power was out after a freak snowstorm covered parts of Texas in uncharacteristic winter weather, but the Nguyens were one of only a handful of homes with lights burning and heat on....

Between work, family and every other time consuming thing vying for your attention these days, it can be hard to fit in time for sex and a good workout, let alone both. But, when in doubt, we multitask! (Besides, in the warm months when you’re already sweaty, why wouldn’t you add a bit more athleticism to your summer sex positions?) According to researchers at Université du Québec à Montréal, sexual activity can burn an average of 75 to 100 calories per session depending on your body, which is roughly equivalent to a light walk (LISS workouts, anyone?...

A large majority of children’s toys and activities are, well, made for child’s play. And unless you have a vivid imagination, it’s understandable why some parents struggle with tapping into their own fantastical side in order to connect with their little ones. Luckily there are classic toys, such as toy cars and floor puzzles, that offer a hands-on bonding experience for parents and their kids. The main difference between your average jigsaw puzzle and floor puzzles is their size....

Every woman views and experiences pregnancy differently, and the postpartum life is similar in that you learn to navigate it in your own way. For some new mothers, that means embracing their postpartum physique and letting nature take its course in the healing process. Others turn to products like postpartum belly wraps to make them feel more comfortable in their new skin, and to also serve as added support throughout the early stages of their recovery....
