Need A Break? Watch Babies Dance!

Gwynne Watkins — Mon, 29 Oct 2007 20:25:00 GMT

Last month I was one of the judges for the New York finals of Baby Loves Disco's "Best Little Dancer in America" contest. It was absolute chaos, and very fun. Now it's your turn: until November 15th, you can watch free videos of all the winning baby-dancers, and vote for your favorites. Check out the contest here -- personally, I'm grooving on the smooth moves of Jeremy from Seattle. (Bonus: portions of the proceeds go to charity.)

Baby's Got the Moves

Grown-Up Time: Great Dates for a Buck

Welcome to the second-installment of Stroller Derby's Grown-Up Time, a weekly feature where we'll dish about ways for mamas and papas to have more fun, take better care of themselves, and keep their grooves groovin'.

This week: Great Dates for a Buck
First caveat. This only works if you have a sense of humor and well-stocked liquor cabinet. Oh, and free babysitting. And maybe an eensy bit more than one dollar.

1. Dance Dance Baby - It helps if you've had one of these and a couple of these. Dress up and go out. Mommy and Daddy need to shake it. Out. In style.

2. Strip Poker - Drop the kids at grandma's and make your way back home. Set up the card table and play some seven card stud. You'll get giggly seeing all the jiggly.

3. Fight Just so You Can Make Up - This only works if the simmering resentments and disappointments haven't robbed you of your humor (yet). The idea is of course to "fight" about something like "How come you're so pretty and thoughtful?" or "What makes you such a FABULOUS husband?" Better yet... arm wrastle.

4. Go for a Drive - Listen to music and sing out loud. If it's sunny, put the windows (or better yet) the top down.
