Before we kick off the new blog with an exciting line-up of
posts from talented members and local experts we wanted to give you a quick
introduction to what the Parent Talk Matters blog is all about!
The blog is a result of the creativity, enthusiasm and dedication
of many local moms and dads that help make Parent Talk tick. It is the
brainchild of our long-time newsletter editor, Lollie Weeks, and the blog
promises to be just as valuable to our membership as her years of contribution
to the Parent Talk Board – thank you, Lollie!!!
Our goal is to provide timely, exciting and helpful content
for parents with young children. The blog is not exclusive to Parent Talk
members but will be a public blog that we hope will help us bring new members
into the organization. It will be moderated by the Parent Talk Blog Committee,
the Co-Presidents and our Executive Director to ensure that the Rules of Engagement we’ve set forth are respected and everyone participating is able
to enjoy their time here.
For aficionados and frequent readers of the Parent Talk Matters
newsletter – have no fear! You will find
similar content here on the blog; we’ll be including posts from many of the
renowned authors who join us throughout the year as part of our lecture series,
and will include input from local experts and parents on topics like saving for
your child’s education and how to figure out which preschool or summer camp is
right for you. You can also expect to
find recipes for great new family suppers, ideas for arts and crafts to do with
your kids, photos and recaps from many of the local family events and other
exciting content from creative and in-the-know local parents. Let us know if you would like to join in by
