SB Finds : De Todo Un Poco

I can barely believe that in less than a month my girl will no longer be a preschooler! School in my district starts in August, so just days after her 5th birthday, my girl will be starting a whole new and exciting stage in her life: Kindergarten in a dual immersion program! To tell you she’s excited, barely does it justice. She just can’t stop talking about all the new friends she’ll make, about how she’ll learn to read inRead More ...

By now many of you know that part of maintaining this site and community is attending social media and blogging conferences. What we get out of these conferences is not only the chance to learn and grow our social media skills, but also to connect with our blogging peers and the brands that are interested in partnering with us and aligning with our raising bilingual kids movement. One of the conferences I attended last year for the first time isRead More ...

I love gazing at my two babies. I can sit idle for a long time watching Alina, my two year old, dance and sing or put a puzzle together. Her 8 week old brother’s sight is starting to focus, and I gawk as he processes the world for the first time. Since they are young, I am never further than my eye sight. Whether a new parent or a seasoned pro, every mom knows how rewarding it is to watchRead More ...

It’s safe to say that we’ve all had a Fisher-Price toy at some point in our lives. Whether we played with one as kids or bought one for our little ones, we’ve built many memories involving our favorite Fisher-Price toys and baby gear. That’s why we were thrilled when we got the chance to host the Fisher-Price’s Room to Bloom event in Los Angeles. We got to catch up with some of our fellow bloggers over brunch and discover fabulousRead More ...

  Having just given birth to mi milagro, the importance of preserving my culture has been heavy on my mind. In addition, being the only Spanish speaking caretaker in our children’s lives presents its own set of challenges. Language is truly the most impactful way I celebrate and embrace my heritage with my children. For that reason, I am always on the look out for supportive and informed communities in which to engage with other like-minded parents. In celebrating ourRead More ...

A couple of weeks ago I discovered Children’s Inspire Design thanks to a giveaway going on at Design Mom. I instantly fell in love with the colors, the designs, the textures, the quirkiness and sensibility, but most of all with the fact that creator Rebecca Peragine made a collection inspired by kids around the globe. Rebecca went through the trouble of making versions of many of her prints, posters and wall cards–all perfect to decorate any nursery or kids room–inRead More ...

For over a year now both Roxana and I have been advocating for clean air and creating awareness about the toxic chemicals which taint our air as part of the Moms Clean Air Force. We are now taking that a step further  and have volunteered our time to be active with another non-profit we feel aligned with: Healthy Child Healthy World. For the past two decades, Healthy Child has been on a mission-and very successful at it- to “ignite a movementRead More ...

The “Tooth Be Told” story contest is offering kids age 12 or younger a chance to get published and earn great prizes for winning the dental health-related story contest. This is a great opportunity for our bilingual kids to practice their Spanish writing skills, have a lot of fun, and maybe even win great prizes.
