Author: Paul Banas
Buy toys that are safe for your kids. There are innumerable ways for them to get hurt when they are away from your watchful eyes.
Some toys that you should be wary of are :
• Toys with small parts: These can prove to be fatal to infants and toddlers who tend to swallow anything they can hold.
• Toys with sharp edges or parts that wear away and produce a sharp edge: Handling these toys may injure the child.

Dad Advice: Traumatic Birth
Author: Paul Banas
The process of becoming a mother involves a certain amount of psychological strain for a pregnant woman. In fact, for some women, childbirth can be as traumatic as life-threatening events such as a natural disaster or a war. During pregnancy, it is important for the to-be mother's family members and close ones to support her as required.

Congratulations on your New Baby!
Author: Paul Banas
You have a new baby, and you are a proud parent. Do you sometimes feel excited but also a little nervous about taking care of your new baby? Then you are like most parents. Even in the first days of life, your baby is starting to find out who you are.
Research has found that very young babies know the difference between their parents and strangers. There are many changes that take place and new things to learn when you become a parent. It doesn't happen overnight. Be patient with yourself. The love you have for your baby will help you learn to become a good parent. Just as no two babies are exactly alike, no one takes care of a baby in exactly the same way. Be a loving parent. Do your best. Enjoy your baby! Ask questions if you need help.

Howto be a Great Dad?
Author: Paul Banas
It seems obvious that everyone sets that standard themselves. Being a great dad isn't achieving one set of measures, or even ensuring that your child confirms you're a great dad whenever prompted.
Being a great dad is an every day climb up the mountain, or a thousand-task test of parenting skills: patience, generosity, creativity, intelligence, wisdom. What works one day is a failure the next. Not all of us can stay at home with our kids, attend every concert and performance, or even make macaroni and cheese. Unlike moms, who seem to have more prescribed roles by society in this area, we blunder about trying to maintain our manhood, while aiming to be good and present parents. But, what does that entail? It's not just making breakfast, but knowing how to make oatmeal like mommy makes it. It's not picking them up at school, but being there five minutes early because you know a five-year old doesn't want to be the last one picked up. It's not just setting out t
