Sugar is hard to avoid, especially for children. My kids still have two huge buckets full of Easter candy that they collected from various Magic Valley Easter Egg Hunts.

As parents it's our job to set rules. This is easier said than done. I've always wanted to be the "yes mom".

If you and you kids love Wild Kratts, you'll be excited to know that Wild Kratts Live is coming to Boise.

Putting a child outside with snow and telling them not to throw snowballs is like going to Daisy's Olde Time Confections and not eating any candy.

The Magic Valley has had more snow days in the last week then they've had in the last 3 years.

Some Magic Valley students are participating in Every Kid Votes. Every Kid Votes is a website that hosts a mock trial 2016 Presidential Election and state elections. This may not seem important, but remember that kids have predicted the last three elections.

Magic Valley residences look forward to being scared year after year at The Haunted Mansions of Albion. Teenagers love it, parents tolerate it, and everyone goes back for more.

KETCHUM, Idaho (AP) — Residents of a small central Idaho town say they don't want a camp for kids with cancer in their neighborhood.

We are all afraid of something. Bee's, snakes, clowns, swimming in the ocean... the list goes on. But, what frightens your kids?

Yesterday, a Jerome mother was purchasing a few things from a local grocery store. As she was checking out, two men began talking to her children. The mother didn't think this was extremely harmful until one of the men picked up her two year old daughter. The mother quickly grabbed her child from the stranger. Not knowing what the two men were capable of, she didn't confront them.

Waking up your kids can be as big of a chore as getting them to go to sleep on time. We have all experienced the child who refuses to get out of bed. While you may want to dump a small glass of water on them, there are better ways to get them to open their eyes.

We are all prepared for school to start tomorrow, right? We've known this day was coming but none of us are 100% prepared. And nothing can prepare us for putting our kids to bed while it's still light outside. That being said, if you have any tricks please let me know.
