News Round-Up April 12: Post-Partum Traditions Around the World, a New Van Allsburg and the Kid Who Told His Teacher His Mom Was Drunk. (She Wasn’t)

What we’re reading today:

1. Mom Carmen submitted her 6-year-old son’s school journal entry to PassiveAggressiveNotes.com after he wrote that she’d been drunk one weekend. She said she hadn’t even had a drink! At least the teacher’s OK with it. Via Jezebel.

2. After giving birth, did you go into quarantine? Did you wash your hair? Why won’t some Chinese moms eat turnips for the first month post-partum? Check out all these new-mom traditions from around the world on Slate.

3. We’re big kindie rock fans around here, but we’re also pretty intrigued by these old kids records from 1948 on BoingBoing. Warning: from the comments we’ve learned that there’s definitely some antiquated racist terms in there. We imagine “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” is PC though.
