Summary: A Compilation of Great Advice for ALL Parents.
Review: Being an avid Parents magazine subscriber, I turn through their pages every month searching for advice from parents across the country. It's almost like sitting in a room, sharing your best ideas with hundreds of other parents. Although Parents magazine features this every month, it's amazing that they've created an entire BOOK about this useful information. At least one in five of these tips could work for you. Creativity from around the nation combines into these pages to provide you with unforgettable hints and tips to make parenting a LITTLE easier and more fun for the kids. I've learned a lot in the past two years from just other parents' advice and strategies. It also helps you stimulate alternative ways of disciplining your children. I recommend this book to all parents willing to learn a little more about themselves and their children. Instead of arguing and cleaning up, you'll spend more quality time with the little people you love.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Quick reference guide for busy parents
Review: Everyone knows that the best parenting advice comes from other parents. That's what makes this book so helpful: The editors of Parents magazine have pulled together tips and ideas from parents into a easy to use guide that is designed to allow you to quickly find suggestions for dealing with whatever parenting problem you are struggling with right now. A lot of the ideas are basic common sense, but it's very handy to have all the ideas in one place, which is why the book is worth purchasing.

Summary: A must-have for every parent's bookshelf!
Review: Parents Magazine's It Worked for Me! clears up thousands of parenting quandaries. And the solutions come from people who have been through it all: parents just like you. But with busy schedules, we often don't find the time to share our parenting advice or commiserate about daily hassles. Now, parents can again take comfort in the reassurance that others not only have similar experiences but also have found inventive solutions that stem from their own wisdom and compassion.

Based on Parents magazine's most popular column, this comprehensive collection of surefire tips and techniques covers the entire gamut of child rearing-bathing, feeding, dressing, discipline, bedtime, playtime, school, television, and much, much more. From divorce and separation anxiety to making the decision to go back to work and helping children adjust to a new child care provider, parents will find creative and practical solutions to nearly any situation.

Written in a clear style and arranged in subject-specific chapters, here is tried-and-true advice for virtually every aspect of a child's physical and emotional development. In addition to the over twenty-five hundred tips from parents, Parents Magazine's It Worked for Me! also incorporates expert advice from leading physicians, child psychologists, and other authorities. Informative sidebars, such as "Fun Facts," "Parents' Bookshelf," "Parents' Checklist," "Ask the Experts," "Parents' Alert," and "Pediatricks," offer parents additional resources in every chapter.

Advance praise for Parents Magazine's It Worked for Me!

"Original solutions for everyday child-care conundrums gathered from creative, inventive parents . . . a quirky, sprightly collection." -Publishers Weekly
