Where To Take Your Child In an Emergency

Knowing whom to call and where to go if your child has a medical emergency can help you keep a clear head and ensure your child will receive the best possible treatment.


Reviews: R-Substitutes

Some of what’s showing in theaters isn’t appropriate for younger children. To help you direct your kids away from the stuff that’s rated R for a reason, here’s a Common Sense Media guide to kid-friendly summer alternatives.


Vacation at Home!

If a tight budget has scuttled your travel plans this year, cheer up. With a little planning, you can have a memorable home-based vacation.


Unless you include skill-sharpening activities like these in your kids’ summer routines, they are likely to lose some of the knowledge they worked so hard to acquire during the school year.

Moms: Share Your Insights!

If you’re a Delaware Valley mom, you can share your parenting insights with our readers in an essay of 500-650 words. Just send an e-mail to editor@metrokids.com with Essay in the subject line and your article attached. If we publish your contribution, we’ll send you tickets to an area museum or attraction. See how mom Trina Chance O’Gorman found meaning through knitting in her essay The Imperfect Blanket.
