About this listen

 In the special segment “Stump the Moms,” Laura and Shanna quiz each other about old-school pregnancy tests, the shocking resale value of kids' toys, the cost of giving birth in the 1950s and more! Also, Laura reports on the sweet relief of her kids returning to school after winter break, and Shanna talks about the surprising result of sending her kids to a week-long "field trip" camp. Finally, they wrap up with their weekly BFPs and BFNs, including a toy that will excite your kids for bath time and a sweet local event that will inspire you to check the activity calendar at your local library. Shanna’s kids are 7 and 9.5 years old, and Laura’s kids are 7 years old and 4.5 years old.Topics discussed in this episode:Returning to school after a long winter breakWhat to do with your kids during an extended winter breakHow long, busy days outside of the house affect your child's mood and regulationHow much did it cost to have a baby in the 1950sWhy are some LEGO sets so expensive?What was the first pregnancy test like?What kids' toy was originally created for adults?How many LEGO bricks are there in the world?A fun bath toy for kids that Laura lovesA fun, local, free activity that Shanna took her kids toProducts, links, resources mentioned in this episode:"It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas" by Bing CrosbySteve & Kate's CampGlendale Central LibrarySkyZone Trampoline Park"How Much Does It Cost to Have a Baby Now?"Ole Kirk's LEGO HouseLEGO Unicef VanStar Wars Death Star LEGO setThe Rabbit Test"10 Wacky Facts About Play-Doh That Will Amaze You"Bath Bomb Potion KitBARK Reading DogsConnect with UsFollow us on social: Instagram, TikTok or Facebook at @bfppodcastJoin our Facebook community group for support and camaraderie on your parenting journey.Visit our website: bigfatpositivepodcast.comEmail us: contact@bigfatpositivepodcast.comIf you enjoyed this episode, help spread the word by sharing the show or leaving a review.
