Mattel and Nickelodeon announced earlier this month that a “tween” version of Nick’s beloved “Dora the Explorer” cartoon character would be unveiled in the fall which caused a backlash response from parents. Mattel released a silhouette of the “new” Dora, whose image was drastically changed from the endearing tomboy look Dora fans grew to love, with her bowl-cut hairdo, T-shirt and red shorts. This new Dora appeared to have long flowing hair, and was wearing what seemed a scanty skirt, emphasizing her long, shapely legs. Mattel says the there is a misconception created from the silhouette released. The actual doll is wears a tunic and leggings. And while she looks older (she’s supposed to be about 10), with longer jewelry and longer hair, she doesn’t have makeup and seems pretty much like a 10-year-old girl.
The doll, which comes with a USB port and is compatible with online story lines that take Dora and four friends on new adventures involving the environment, social action and more, still has, as Sirard called it, the “Dora DNA.”
What do you guys think? Do you think that they should just stick to the younger tomboyish Dora or is it ok to try to reach older girls with the slightly older and girlier version?

According to the Washington Post More than half the baby shampoo, lotion and other infant care products analyzed by a health advocacy group were found to contain trace amounts of two chemicals that are believed to cause cancer.
Some of the biggest names on the market, including Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo and Baby Magic lotion, tested positive for 1,4-dioxane or formaldehyde, or both, the nonprofit Campaign for Safe Cosmetics reported.
The chemicals, which the Environmental Protection Agency has characterized as probable carcinogens, are not intentionally added to the products and are not listed among ingredients on labels. Instead, they appear to be byproducts of the manufacturing process. Formaldehyde is created when other chemicals in the product break down over time, while 1,4-dioxane is formed when foaming agents are combined with ethylene oxide or similar petrochemicals.
The complete report can be found at: http://www.safecosmetics.org/toxictub.

While the latest Barbie has been flying off the shelves it has also angered parents across the country. The new “Totally Stylin’ Tattoos Barbie” comes with a set of body art stickers to be placed anywhere on her body. The set also comes with a tattoo gun so kids can stamp designs on themselves but all tattoos are washable and come off. Parents are in an uproar across the country because they do not believe girls are old enough for this type of concept. At the same time, the toy is flying off the shelves.

Dr. Seuss was born on March 2nd which makes it a great time to start preparing some Dr. Seuss related activities for the kids. Because, really… who doesn’t love Dr. Seuss??
Beside reading all the classics like Cat in the Hat or Green Eggs and Ham there a many creative activities you can participate in.
A simple idea is printing out coloring pages
Another idea is to: Make a Cat-in-the-Hat Hat or a Horton Hears a Who by Dr. Seuss Story Sack
