CAN YOU HELP THIS MOM?

"I don't mind when Dad travels during the week, but when he is gone on the weekends, I find myself wondering what to do with the kids. Church on Sunday mornings is planned, but that is about it. Any suggestions that a 'lone mom' can handle?"

KIDS TALENT SEARCH

The deadline has been extended to enter the Kids Talent Search competition at Chattamoms.com. Videos can be uploaded to the website through May 16. Later this month, voting will begin to select the talented children who will be invited to perform on the Kids Stage at Riverbend in June. Visit Chattamoms.com for detailed instructions.

BABY BUMPERS

Gone bumperless in your child's crib because of concerns about SIDS? Then you'll want to hear about Wonder Bumpers.

Wonder Bumpers are 6 feet wide and fit on almost all rails. Instead of one long padded piece, each railing has its own "bumper." You zip them around the rails; you can also zip them together to accommodate even larger size slats.

Without the risk of a bulky bumper, SIDS is not as great a fear, according to the Wonder Bumper creators. Find Wonder Bumpers online at www.gomamagodesigns.com.
