Kyle Dowling — Mon, 06 May 2013 15:24:52 +0000

There are many great things to watching a child grow up: their first step, their first word, and of course, watching them turn simple English into dirty, foul-mouthed words that make any adult crack up. As you can see, young Paige is having a little trouble describing what she’s holding in this video with her [...]

Facebook is a weird place. Sometimes vitriolic, sometimes bizarre and yes, sometimes a source for re-connecting with old friends you might otherwise have stayed in touch with.

One such friend for me is Kirk Stensvig. His mom and dad were friends with my parents for as long as I can remember. There really isn't a time I don't recall knowing Kirk.

Earlier today, he unearthed some old photographs and posted them on my Timeline.

Drew Weisholtz — Mon, 04 Mar 2013 14:27:22 +0000

The issue over guns in our schools has taken on a very strange twist in one Maryland school. A second-grader at Park Elementary School in Baltimore was suspended for two days after his teacher claimed he saw the seven-year-old bite his breakfast pastry, i.e., Pop Tart into the shape of what appeared to be a [...]

Patricia Krentcil, infamously known as "the tanning mom" for taking her five-year-old daughter into a tanning bed, did not endanger her child.

We all have favorites: favorite food, favorite color, favorite band. But a favorite child? A new British survey of more than 1,200 parents has found that one in 12 admit to having a favorite child and that 62% confess to failing to give equal attention to their kids, which is a surprisingly high number if [...]

9-Year-Old Makes Incredible Winning Hockey Goal

Drew Weisholtz — Wed, 13 Feb 2013 14:28:53 +0000

Talk about your net winnings. Nine-year-old Tyson Greencorn won $5,000 after he made a shot from center ice during a charity hockey game in Canada last week. Never mind the stick was almost as big as he was. Never mind the PA announcer was leading a chant of his name with the whole arena looking [...]

Restaurant Receipt Includes Discount For Well-Behaved Kids

Jeremy Taylor — Tue, 05 Feb 2013 16:53:56 +0000

As every parent knows, it’s tough to get little kids to behave in aÂ restaurant. Being in a newÂ environmentÂ willÂ exciteÂ the youngsters and many of their typicallyÂ inoffensiveÂ meal time antics, such as loud talking, hyperactivity and the occasional food play, become amplified into something less adorable and more annoying when strangers are watching. But a Seattle area family was [...]

10 Little Darth Vaders Too Cute to Go to the Dark Side

Cameron Simcik — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 20:52:12 +0000

It seems like Darth Vader's turned a positive corner recently. He's become part of the Disney family after all, so maybe the whole hanging out with princesses thing is turning him into a softie. Or maybe he just got a bad rep all these years. Whatever the case, it doesn't seem like the Dark Lord is all that bad. Why? Well, these kiddos are proof.

Toddler Helps Dad Teach You the Fundamentals of Fighting

Emerald Catron — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 17:23:08 +0000

If you can get past the initial nose picking in this video, you’re in for a pretty good time. We don’t think that repeatedly karate chopping the back of someone’s hand is necessarily the best way to disarm a person with a knife, but it’s funny because it’s a baby who is dressed up like [...]

Kid Tries To Dunk Basketball By Jumping Over Car – Accomplishes Neither

John Riggs — Fri, 28 Dec 2012 18:49:33 +0000

Watch, as this idiot flies through the air with the greatest of ease. Actually, he doesn't fly so much as crash. And it's not so much ease as it is fail. So, watch as he crashes with the greatest of fail.

Yeah, it's what he gets.

And have you

Young Cancer Patient Has Heartwarming Meeting With His Wrestling Hero

Emerald Catron — Thu, 20 Dec 2012 19:38:55 +0000

Professional wrestlers may seem like tough guys, but underneath their shiny spandex outfits and long, flowing hair (clearly a sign of ultimate masculinity), they have hearts of gold. Daniel Bryan, for example, recently met with a seven-year-old boy who has had brain cancer for almost four years, and says he's Bryan's biggest fan. It's okay if you need to go grab some Kleenex before you look at the pictures.

10 Adorable Reactions on Christmas Morning

Cameron Simcik — Sun, 16 Dec 2012 15:04:21 +0000

On Christmas morning, there's nothing worse than getting a bad reaction to one of your presents. This is especially prevalent among the younger crowd, particularly those under age 12. Why? Well, the kiddos don't necessarily have an understanding of faking appreciation and re-gifting later, so it just comes off as bratty behavior.

Redditor Parent Makes Hilarious Family Christmas Cards

Emerald Catron — Thu, 06 Dec 2012 22:46:03 +0000

Aside from that time when a cousin, without a trace of irony, sent a family Christmas card that was a picture of all the kids dressed up in hunting camo holding rifles, these are the best family Christmas cards ever. They were made by Redditor TPThatsMe, and if you go to the post on Imgur, you can also watch a video for how each of the photos came into being.

10 Adorably Bratty Christmas Kids

Cameron Simcik — Fri, 30 Nov 2012 21:26:58 +0000

Little kids are the best. They're pro photobombers and make super weird raps about McDonald's, and that's just scratching the surface. But munchkins can also be the worst. Don't get us wrong-- their adorableness usually overrides any of those 'tudes they try and pull, and you know how we're suckers for anything remotely adorable. But sometimes that awful side emerges in those rare moments of brattiness, and we're left sort of dumbfounded.

Jimmy Kimmel's Halloween Candy Prank Makes Children Cry

Emerald Catron — Mon, 05 Nov 2012 15:26:26 +0000

Jimmy “Man Who Hates Kids” Kimmel once again asked parents to tell their children that all of their Halloween candy had been eaten. And film it. Since the experiment was so popular last year, Kimmel thought he’d do it again. Fortunately for him, children aren’t cruising YouTube looking for old Jimmy Kimmel videos, so they [...]

Cameron Simcik — Thu, 01 Nov 2012 14:19:42 +0000

There are tons of things we don't know, like why Evil Baby is so terrifying or how Honey Boo Boo landed a hit TV show. Sure, we could use the old Google Machine or Siri, but sometimes we like hearing answers from an actual person.

But did you know there's an even better, adorably entertaining way to get answers to life's toughest questions?

J.R.O.T.C. in West Valley Spared… For Now

Todd Lyons — Wed, 30 May 2012 21:03:08 +0000

Yesterday, I was alarmed to hear from a couple of KATS listeners that the J.R.O.T.C. program in the West Valley School District was on the chopping block.

There was a tremendous outpouring of support from members of the community at a school board hearing last night to help determine the program's fate.
