One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Make Family Events More Enjoyable With Friends

Better Together: Why Inviting Another Family Makes Activities More Fun #FamilyFun Sometimes family activities can feel like another item on the to-do list. However, doing those activities with another family makes them more fun! Whether it’s a trip to an amusement park , a visit to the local pool , or trip to a pumpkin patch , including another family can multiply the fun in amazing ways.

Family Tips: Free Family Fun for MLK Day (Monday, January 21st)

 
Tomorrow is MLK Day, the day that America devotes to celebrating the life and contributions of Martin Luther King Jr. According to Wikipedia, "Martin Luther King, Jr. (January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968) was an American clergyman, activist, and prominent leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement. He is best known for his role in the advancement of civil rights using nonviolent civil disobedience.King has become a national icon in the history of American progressivism" The truth is he was that and so much more. Every American owes Dr. King a debt of gratitude. Because of his dream and his efforts, America finally began to live up to its creed that, "all men are created equal".

Live Martin Luther King Jr.'s Dream on MLK Day!


Dr. King had a dream that, "little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers." Live the dream by taking your kids to one of the free events going on in Pittsburgh tomorrow.
Below is a link to a post I did last year that includes links t many of the events.
