Kids Say The Darndest Things!

It’s Kiddie Thursday.

Boy, do kids say the darndest things!

Today, we’re sharing some of the funniest / outrageous / memorable things that our kids, nieces, nephews have said that have got us either laughing for days or wondering… where the heck did they get that from?

How about those funny little things that mum said YOU did as a tot?

Ok... so it may not be something that was said, but funny little acts such as wearing mummy's shoe, make up or sunglasses. Get the picture?

Speaking of pictures, if you have photos of such a moment we'll love to see them too!

Happy hunting!

Here are a couple of videos to get those stories coming:

All Around The World

Ok Hunters, pack your bags and get ready to take a trip. Where are we going? To your favorite places around the world.

People travel for many reasons: family vacations, spring break, humanitarian relief, study abroad, and business travel. But regardless of the reason, every travel experience offers us new perspectives on the world. The best trips can even inspire us to make changes in our own lives.

We want to see the world through your eyes. Send us pictures of the places you love around the world, and your top destinations for a future trip. We are based in NYC, so if you live out of the NYC metro area, you can upload a picture of your neighborhood.

Here are my pictures. First is the famous Eifle Tower, a picture I took on my last visit to Paris, my favorite place. The second is my Sudoku book, I would love to visit Japan soon.

Update: We received some pictures. The first is from Carlton, who wants to visit Egypt and Karen would love to visit Greece.

Spring (Training) is in The Air!

With the arrival of March it won't be long now until the warm weather returns and spring is in full swing. While there is still snow on the ground here in New York City, down south professional baseball players have arrived at their respective camps to prepare for the upcoming season.

Here in New York optimism again reins as the Yankees begin their quest for a 28th World Series title and their second in a row. Personally I am a baseball fanatic. I live for the game and await opening day from the last out of the World Series.

Today's Scavenger Hunt Item is to submit a picture of your favorite Major League Baseball Stadium. Be creative, it can be yourself at a game or just a photo of your favorite team's park!

To get things started, here is a photo I took when I was lucky enough to get tickets for Game 1 of the 2009 World Series at Yankees Stadium:
