What we’re reading today:

1. How do you deal with kids obsessed with names brands? Boost their confidence, encourage them to “develop a multi-faceted identity through sports, music, volunteerism, faith or other activities that they are good at and that include them in a community.

2. Soda pop is bad for your kids and could be aging you faster. (Does that include San Pelligrino?)

3. So baby monitors are a pretty genius device, yes? Want to kick them up a few notches? How about a onesie that’s also a wireless biosensor? Get updates on your baby’s heartrate and skin temperature sent right to your phone!

4. Telling kids that “learning is difficult and failure is common, but practice will help,” is a good way to get kids to fail less.

5.  Do your kids know the classic “What’s Opera Doc?” aka “Kill the Wabbit”? How about a remix?
