Reseña del editor

Each year thousands of parents, yearning for more time with their children, put away their briefcases and laptops in favor of baby gear and Legos. Yet being home with the kids all day isn't easy! Some of us need a little extra help with the transition. The Stay-at-Home Parent Survival Guide not only helps Moms and Dads survive the occasional stressful day--something every parent experiences now and then--but also inspires them with new ideas for indoor and outdoor activities, great places to take the kids, starting a playgroup, building a support system, and keeping connected in the adult community. Even if you're a parenting pro, The Stay-at-Home Parent Survival Guide is a useful resource that offers unique ways to handle the day-to-day tasks of stay-at-home parenting, such as helpful tips for finishing the housework with the kids underfoot, meal and naptime strategies that work, skills for building a stronger marriage, managing your time effectively, beating the stay-at-home blues, and balancing household finances on a single income. In addition to the expertise of author Christina Baglivi Tinglof and other stay-at-home parents, The Survival Guide includes valuable insights from a variety of experts, including:
