Abigail Breslin: Top Role Model for Lil Girls

babysugar — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 10:00:00 -0700

If you've seen Little Miss Sunshine, you'll understand my obsession with the positively charming Abigail Breslin.

The extraordinarily talented actress has mad acting skills that are sure to take her far in Tinseltown. More importantly, she seems to have a good head on her small shoulders.

A breath of fresh air from other young actresses, Abigail wore what any typical 11–year–old (soon to be 12) girl would on a Wednesday afternoon – a red polka–dot dress over a graphic tee paired with some comfy cute flip flops.

Even as she was inducted into The Girl Scouts of the USA as an honorary member, she couldn't be swayed to lap on make–up or sport an overdone dress.

As a mother of a lass, I couldn't pick a better role model for my babe. Judging from the smiles of the young ladies in the audience, they couldn't either.

Appropriate to Sell Kid's Girl Scout Cookies at Work?

School aged kids always have something to sell from Girl Scout cookies to World's Finest chocolate bars and wrapping paper to magazine subscriptions. While fundraisers often offset education or activity costs, is it appropriate for parents to peddle their child's wares to co-workers at the office?

Wild Child Names

babysugar — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 07:00:22 -0700

Unique names are a trend of late though some are getting out of control. New Zealand parents who named their child Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii were reprimanded by a judge. After years of embarrassment, the nine–year–old girl is keeping her new title under wraps.

Celebrities are known to push the envelope with names like Zowie, Bluebell, Banjo and Pilot Inspektor. Take my quiz and see if you know who gave their kids some zany monikers. Scout and Tallulah Willis are starting to sound more normal every day! What's the most eccentric name you've ever heard?
