Favorite Christmas Memories and Re-Gifting at #DadChat
It’s the day after Christmas and all is quiet in the house. Well, the house is actually quite a mess. Pieces of wrapping and tinsel are everywhere. Leftover turkey and pumpkin pie are being eaten by the dog. The record player – anyone remember what those are – is skipping and playing The Christmas Song over and over again by Nat King Cole. It’s gently snowing outside…and it’s time for #DadChat on this Thursday, December 26 from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. PT/9:00 – 10:00 p.m. ET.
Let’s talk about our favorite Christmas memories – new and old. And, let’s talk about how re-gifting can be a beautiful way to help others!
Bruce is still lost in Africa somewhere. He hopes to join the fun, but who knows if the pirates that kidnapped him will let him use his laptop! In his absence Edna Myers is hosting this evening.

Pride Was My Downfall
There are a lot of “P’s” that help in life, but Pride is NOT one of them. I often extol the virtues of passion, persistence, and pharmaceuticals (just kidding), but pride is one of those things than usually gets in the way of our success.

Mom’s Dirty Little Secret at #DadChat
I am somewhere in India or Africa for this week’s #DadChat on Thursday, December 19 from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. PT/9:00 -10:00 p.m. ET. But, in anticipation of my absence I went looking and found the ONLY two moms in the world who would admit it. Yep, they are going to admit that they are happy when their adult children go home AFTER visiting for “The Holidays.” Yes, these two moms love their kids, but they love them more from afar.
The Other N-Word
No, this is not a column about race. The other N-word is nepotism. It often has a negative connotation but I actually have been re-thinking the word; how nepotism is practiced and felt today, and how I’m going to take this idea and expand it into helicopter parenting. A reach? But, of course!
Healthy Games for your Kids at #DadChat – Angry Birds GO!
This week’s #DadChat isn’t just about toys or digital games—it’s about both! We’re calling it Healthy Games because we’ll be discussing the best ways to engage your kids with healthy play. Thursday, December 12 from 6:00 – 7:00 pm PT/9:00 – 10:00 pm ET, we’ll also be talking about Hasbro’s new Angry Birds Go! Telepods, which are toy vehicles kids can play with that can also be “teleported” into the newest installment of the hit Angry Birds franchise, plus Angry Birds Go! Jenga toys, bringing the block-stacking gameplay of the Hasbro classic to life with a new Angry Birds twist! They’re way cool, and Hasbro is giving away three cool Angry Birds Go! Telepods and Jenga prizes. Scroll down for the details.
We’ll be using the #Telepods and #AngryBirdsGo hashtags for the giveaways, all my tweets, and yours too, I hope, so we bring in tons of people for a great party!
