We have a little dare devil on our hands. This was never more clear to us than the first time we took Mr. Dude into a fair type atmosphere where he was actually big enough to ride the rides. Standing at just over 36 inches (36.8" to be exact) Mr. Dude could ride many, but not all of the rides at Navy Pier's Winter Wonderfest last month.
This year you can celebrate as a family and still have time for a parents-only party with a whole new set of New Year’s Eve countdowns, available today only on Netflix, designed for preschoolers, tweens and everyone in between. You choose when to say goodnight, and the kids choose how to celebrate with their favorite characters.
One of the traditions we've started as a family is going to see the holiday trees at the Museum of Science and Industry Chicago every year. Mr. Dude loved seeing the trees this year.
My wife and I celebrate Christmas earlier than most every year. The problem is, I can't fit all my holiday joy into just four weeks! I think it takes six to eight weeks to enjoy it to its maximum extent. I have, however, gathered thoughts from over twenty fellow dad bloggers who think I celebrate a bit too early.
