Mommy’s Going to the Spa? (New Poll)
February 11, 2007

Do you ever say this, “Mommy’s going to the spa today.”
Just wondering if you ever treat yourself to a manicure, pedicure or facial? Or maybe you get the whole package (with a massage and all) every once in a while. Please vote in the new poll and let us know:
How often do you have a spa treatment:
- At least once a month!
- Every other month.
- Twice a year.
- Spa treatment?
This is a great time of year to start thinking about a pedicure. Get those feet in shape before it’s sandal time!

How Much Time do your Kids Spend on Homework Each Night? (Poll Results)
February 9, 2007
I’m surprised that our poll results showed that most children are spending less than 30 minutes on homework each night. Maybe we just happended to get a lot of responses from moms with younger children.
Here are the results:
- Less than 30 minutes: 55%
- 30 minutes – 1 hour: 9%
- 1-2 hours: 18%
- More than two hours: 18%
I’d say we doubled our homework time from Kindergarten to first grade, but it’s still very manageable. Let’s just hope it doesn’t continue to double each year!
