What Kind of Cake Mom Are You?
Vanilla or chocolate? When it comes to wee one's birthday cakes, the possibilities are endless. Many mothers prefer to bake their own enlisting tiny, helping hands and spoon-licking tongues while other mommies prefer to pick up a bakery's special concoction that is sure to please the kids — big and small.
Delilicious: Dazzling Novelty Cake Pans
It seems delicious kid friendly desserts taste even better when they come in the shape of something fun. The Wilton Giant Cupcake Cast Pan ($30) has become a staple for kid birthdays (much to the pleasure of moms like myself, its popularity coincides with a million great cupcake recipes).

Kiddie Soiree: Adjustable Alphabet/Number Cake Pan
Birthday cakes serve as a centerpiece for any celebration, so finding, or making, the perfect one is always a project for me. The biggest issue with creating a custom cake each year is that by the next year, my lil ones want something completely different and I need to buy a new cake pan (or find another bakery).
The Alphabet/Number Cake Pan ($40) allows you to move two-inch cubes to create any letter or number with one pan.

Non Voyage: A Capital Celebration Where You Need DC to Be
If the new administration has your family dreaming of our nation's historic roots, a trip to Washington DC is sure to inspire the next generation of public servants. We continue our week of big-city non voyages in the nation's capital with activities and food that will help families recreate the DC experience without breaking their wallets.
- The National Mall is lined with some of the best museums in the world, and one of the most popular is the National Air and Space Museum. Teach your budding astronauts about the history of manned space flight and then have them create their own rocket ship that will transport them to the moon. Rockets can be built out of blocks, cardboard or with any scraps you have lying around.
- The International Spy Museum is one of the most unique places to visit in DC, where children and adults alike can learn about the CIA and FBI's covert operations and the techniques used to keep the nation from harm. Recreate the experience with a backyard scavenger hunt where lil ones can search for hidden treasures and practice their detective skills. Don't forget the trench coats and magnifying glasses to make them feel official.
- Even in the age of email, everybody still loves to get mail and the National Postal Museum shows kids how their letters get delivered. Visit your local post office and have the kids pick out their own stamps and mail letters to their family and friends. See if the postal workers will allow your tots to view the sorting machines in the back too.
- It's hard to imagine what life was like before cars, computers and modern conveniences, but Mount Vernon, George and Martha Washington's home, does just that.
Kate Gosselin Speaks Out About Rumors She Cheated
Over Mother's Day weekend, it appeared that the Gosselin gossip that covered the tabloids and news feeds last week had died down. Kate was spotted at a supermarket picking up a cake, likely to celebrate her sextuplets' 5th birthday, and Jon was seen outside the family's abode playing with the kids and dogs.
But this morning People published a portion of its exclusive interview with the mom of eight dispelling the new claim that she had an affair with one of the family's bodyguards, Steve Neild.
