Ok – this may be a stupid question but putting it out here. My daughter was invited to a birthday party for her twin classmates. The boys are turning 3. What would be a good gift for them? I should probably get two gifts and not a single gift for the both of them, right? Do I get two of the same gift? What about two books in the same series? Truthfully I have no idea what these boys like. Was hoping to spend $20 each.
I usually spend around $15-20 on a birthday gift, and for twins I tend to be on the lower end of that for each kid. I try to get them toys that are separate but go together – so like two Lego/Duplo sets, or two hot wheels tracks.
For that age, you could get a take-apart dinosaur and take-apart airplane. Or two play dough sets. Or two classic games like Don’t Break the Ice and Yeti in my Spaghetti.
Tis the season….. tipping question.
My nanny is leaving as of 12/31. Leaving the profession – was not planned when we hired her 18 months ago, but leaving on good terms for sure. What would you tip her? Same as if she wasn’t leaving (which was 2 weeks pay (rounded up)last year)?
My friend and I want to do a girls’ trip in February/March 2023. She’s in Boston, I’m in Houston. We’re thinking of meeting in Charleston or Savannah. We like walking around, drinking (she likes whiskey; I like beer), museums, semi-fancy hotels. Do you have any recommendations for either city? Is there a third location we should consider? I have no experience with the east coast other than visiting her in Boston (once).
Hi! Are there still any places I can get masks for kiddo? She’s 15 months and starting to show interest, so I thought it couldn’t hurt to get her some practice. As of now, the 2-5 year olds at her daycare still wear them.
Board game or other game suggestions in general for my 3.5 and 5.5 year Olds?
Ordering christmas presents and trying to find more quiet games for them since the only way they seem to play is by chasing each other around the house. Also,those of you that post that your kids play quietly with each other,give me your tips!!

My husband and I have a 2 year old. In November, I went to a conference and was away for 4 nights; everything was fine. Since I’ve been back, however, the 2 yo has had VERY strong preferences for me and rejects my husband all the time (for example, he goes in to get her out of the crib and she screams “Papa No!”; only I can brush her teeth, help her in the bathroom, etc). Sometimes she’s nice to him and they play together, but she has a definite preference for me, especially when she’s tired or for unpleasant tasks (like bedtime). It’s exhausting to all of us, and it doesn’t seem to be getting better. Any suggestions?
Looking for guidance on holiday gifts for preschool teachers in San Francisco. We’re new to the school and to group childcare this year (previously we’re using a nanny) and I don’t have any sense of what other families are doing. Also, I’m not totally sure how many teachers are involved on a regular basis (versus occasionally floating in from another location of the school) so would prefer something like a group gift for teachers to share/distribute among themselves rather than needing to make a choice myself about how many discrete cards/gifts/whatever to get.
Do your kinder kids hand out goody bags to friends at the holidays? Trying to figure out if this is a thing…realizing it may vary a ton. We’re in SoCal.
