What are the best kid birthday parties you've been to?

Has anyone had any amazing children’s birthday parties in the Long Beach area? We didn’t throw a party for my son’s first birthday, and for his second birthday we had a little party at our home, but it was too stressful having it at home. This year I want to have it somewhere. Any ideas? Thank you so so much. I just have no clue where to even look!

How do I teach my daughter to ride a bike?

Hi! We live in an apartment in the Inglewood area and my daughter has started wanting to learn how to ride a bike! Are there any good parks with bike paths in the area that we could visit to teach her how? It can get pretty busy on the streets here, so I’d rather her learn on a bike path/area than on the neighborhood streets. Thx Inglewood mamas.

Parks with playgrounds and trees?

Moms! I’m looking for some suggestions for parks with good playgrounds with LOTS OF SHADE. We have a park pretty close to our house, but there are no trees and it makes taking the kids to the park a totally not fun experience. Our family lives in the Moreno Valley area. Moms and dads, what parks do you all like best? And ones with shade pretty please!!

How do I stop my kids from being so clingy?

How can I encourage my little ones to be more independent? I feel like they are so clingy, and I thought that they would get more independent as they got into preschool age, but the problem only seems to be getting worse. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
