Summary: If Jodie said it was good - believe it!
Comment: If you are a single mom or even a single dad, this book will truly save your life and most likely your sanity. When it comes to signing kids up for a ton of activities, it can become a heated discussion in our home. With little money for extras, we really need to know what all is involved in each one BEFORE signing on the dotted line and handing over the check. I bought this book based on the review it got from family/parenting expert, Jodie Lynn, in her syndicated column, Parent to Parent. Like many, I always pay attention when she mentions or recommends a book. She is the author of her own book, Mommy-CEO, which is a great tool all on its own but is especially important when paired with this book. All I have to say is - it is about time someone looked out for all parents like these two do and I'm thrilled that they include all of us, not just those who have tons of money for the vast majority of things kids want to do in extra-curricular activities. Thanks so much Jodie - for recommending Stacy's book and for writing one of your own. Maybe the two of you could come up with a winner together -- that would be great! Both books are well worth the time and money.

Summary: Super guide for all moms with more than one kid
Comment: This book is a marvelous reference for any parent who is going through the activity/sports craze with their children. As a teacher and a parent of two boys I am well aware of the increased amount of activities and sports kids are getting involved with at a young age. With my boys, I have gone through the sign up process, only to find my house filled with moans and complaints when practices and game days come along. Not only is this book a helpful reference to finding out more about specific sports and activities, but it has useful information about dealing with kids wanting to quit and positive ways to get to the bottom of it. This book has been a great help to me in dealing with both my sons, finding out what they like best, and what I can expect as a parent.

Summary: Helps you know what you're getting yourself in to!
Comment: Sign Me Up! is a great guide for parents for looking to find out more about after-school sports and activities. As a mother of three it is not always easy to balance everyone's schedules. My 10 year old daughter as already joined two different sports and quit because the physical demands where too much for her, and she was clearly not having fun. With her I have realized she needs more one on one time, and I have been looking for sports and activities that could offer her this. This kind of information is exactly what I have been finding in Sign Me Up! Not only do I feel like I know more about what each sport and activity will entail, but I can tell my kids more about what they can expect and help them make their decision before signing up. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone! It's wonderful for parents with kids of all ages!
