rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mkosak - For as long as I can remember I've tried keeping a calendar and address book, but to no avail. The answer to organization for me was the purchase a PDA. Not just any PDA, but one that acts as a digital camera and MP3 player; what more could you ask...

I THINK I'VE GOT IT!!!

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 17:30:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mkosak - It's the Nickelodeon celebrities on the show! No, it's the green slime! No, watching everyday kids who do astounding things! No, it's seeing the crazy things some kids do! No! it's kids thinking about what they can do to get on the show!

The Occupational Therapist Made Me Buy It!

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 17:04:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mkosak - From the time I can remember seeing Jenga advertised on television, I never felt the urge to run out and buy it. I guess a big part of why is because my brothers, sister and I never owned Jenga. Normally, the games I buy for my kids are board games...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mkosak - Watching the news is not something I've encouraged my kids to do. You'll soon understand why when you read the paragraph below. Typically, for news I've encouraged them to read the newspaper.

Maybe my kids are a little different from others,...

Personally, this show scares me!

Mon, 24 Jan 2000 16:00:27 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mkosak - Apparently most parents are uncomfortable with The Big Comfy Couch, since (at the time of this writing) only 44% of epinions written recommend the show.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mkosak - In reading the epinions of this show, the thing that caught my eye was Tina Cruz's description of Jeff Corwin's enthusiasm and his manic love of animals. I think she summed it up nicely with those words.

Corwin's enthusiasm and manic nature...

Warm Fuzzy Feelings Abound!

Fri, 21 Jan 2000 15:10:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mkosak - Nevermind Bear in the Big Blue House is educational. Forget the fact that in addition to teaching academics to preschoolers, the characters teach values as well. Who cares if the music on the show is fabulous for little ones. Just watching Bear in the...

Not Your Typical Good vs. Evil Show

Thu, 20 Jan 2000 17:16:15 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author mkosak - This isn't your typical good girl versus bad boy show. Like life, the plots and themes in this show contain a lot of gray areas.

Disney Magic
