What We're Reading

Me

I've been fascinated to learn how the brain's executive function challenges many kids in school and at home.


The Big Kid

My daughter loved this so much, we read it aloud to the whole family. Then moved on to the next one.


The LIttle Kid

A wonderful story with great illustrations and an environmental message that's not preachy or scary.

Xanadu and Walking With Dinosaurs Discounts and Winners

Wow! Who knew that so many NYC moms were harboring a deep, dark love of all things eighties. Watch out, friends, because it looks like ribbon barrettes and leg warmers are on their way back! Or at least for one night while our Big TIcket Giveaway winners, Jennifer M, who's still jonesing for Duran Duran, and Tamara, who believes that the only thing today's fashion needs is more flourescents and black rubber bracelets, go for FREE to see Xanadu! Congrats, Ladies.  The 80s awaits you in Xanadu!

For everybody else who would like to drink the neon-tinted waters of Xanadu, you might want to get tickets for Family Days at Xanadu which are Saturday, July 12th and August 9th.  Purchase a ticket to the 2PM show and get a free voucher to a post-show party at Dave & Busters, the Times Square arcade at 3:45.  The voucher includes a $10 gaming card and free gift bag with Xanadu memorabilia, they also have food and drinks there which you can purchase.  Use Code XUFAM65 at BroadwayOffers.com or 212-947-8844. *

The 80s passionate nostalgia from the moms was matched equally with some serious dinosaur love for those who entered to win tickets to Walking with Dinosaurs. Lots of talk about favorite, chewed, thumbed and sucked Dinosaur books. Dinosaur Roar seemed to be a universal favorite and also the favorite dinosaur book of our winner, Heidi. Congrats. Heidi! You'll have to report back and let us know how the show is!

But if you want to get tickets to see Walking with Dinosaurs yoursef, Mommy Poppins readers get 10% off the ticket price of $35 and $55 tickets when you use this discount code - One2One when purchasing your tickets online.

Thanks to all our entrants. Congrats to our winners. And we hope you all go see these two cool shows.

 

*(Restrictions may apply.  Admittance to party is contingent on redemption of voucher)--I dont know what that means. They made me say it.
