Chris Molnar is a writer, graphic designer and full-time Dad who always has to think of creative ways to keep his two rambunctious toddlers entertained.

After teaching English in Korea and a decade in a variety of corporate cubicles (one of them a converted closet), he now makes a living designing websites and writing online.

My daughter just loves birthdays, and she always asks if somebody else is having one. I’ve seen her serve pretend cake to her stuffed animals, and she has the full compliment of toy dishes, fruits, toast and other food for her kitchen, so I thought, “I wonder if somebody sells a cake toy?” A quick ...

Yup, there’s a celebration for everything! January 14th is National Dress up Your Pet Day! All dogs and cats (and pigs too), RUN! Run for your life!

That’s it, I’ve had enough of winter! Christmas is over, the bills are coming in, and the tree is gone. It’s all so chilly and depressing here – and where I live, winter isn’t even half way over.
