OK, I’m not going to overdo it with a flurry of Hoops & YoYo posts and I won’t rave about how much I love Hoops & YoYo. But they are so FUNNY in a really annoying and mischievous kind of way. Hee. My kids always send me Hoops & YoYo e-cards (they are characters invented by Hallmark), or watch the little videos when they are feeling low. Nothing like 20 minutes of belly-laughing to cheer a person up!
Here’s one of their best. It’s All About Manners. Gather the kids ’round and set them in front of this! LOL! Click on the links on the page to learn a new lesson. :D
My personal favorite? Asking to go out and play. I need more practice!



I’m a married mom with 4 kids. We live in Upstate New York in an old 1855 house with our five pets (yes, five, *sigh*). Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I do freelance writing and blogging. My work and opinions have appeared in Salon.com, USAToday, eHow.com, iMedia.com, the Associated Press and I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.

That is too cute. I loved the “Go outside and play” one, also. Manners are important!

Hello, Daisy and Lis. Yes, it IS too cute! Other funny one are of blowing your nose and what to do when you get a present. LOL
