The Great Pumpkin

"According to Linus, on Halloween night, the Great Pumpkin rises out of the pumpkin patch he deems the most "sincere". The Great Pumpkin then flies through the air to deliver toys to all the good little children in the world. Apparently, one can cause the Great Pumpkin to pass him or her by merely saying "IF he comes", as opposed to "WHEN he comes". This could mean that the Great Pumpkin is likely to pass by anyone who doubts his existance" From Wikipedia Entry

If your child was born during the time of The Great Pumpkin's arrival (October 28-October 31), send Mlle Kiddie an email at mllekiddie@kiddiegram.net and she will send you on a gift code for a free on-line Kiddiegram Report!

Oprah's former personal chef Art Smith started a non-profit Common Threads in Chicago in 2003.

Common Threads provides after-school programming to children from eight to twelve years old who are on the free or assisted lunch program. The classes are offered once per week in eight different Chicago neighborhood locations during the school year. In addition, Common Threads provides a day camp for six weeks during the summer where our children learn to plant, harvest, and cook fresh vegetables from the Common Threads World Garden. The Common Threads Movement Program promotes physical fitness and culture by providing classes in Yoga, Capeira (Brazilian dancing), Tai Chi and African Dance and drumming.

What's Your (Kid's) Sign? Find Out with Kidsigns from Kiddiegram


CHICAGO, Sept. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- For the millions of parents who have
ever wondered why their kids act in certain ways or wished they could
communicate better with their children, Kiddiegram has the answer. Launched
this week, Kidsigns from Kiddiegram (http://kidsigns.kiddiegram.net) is an
interactive parenting guide that simplifies astrological concepts and gives
parents much-needed insight into their children's behavior and
personalities.
Kidsigns visitors can receive a free mini-Kidsigns astrological report
based on their children's place, date and time of birth. Those wishing for
an in-depth description of their child can opt for a full twelve- to
fifteen-page horoscope report-a fun, upbeat analysis of a child's unique
personality and potential-including tips on how to more effectively parent
that particular child. A full Kidsigns report is inexpensive and can be
received instantly online or as a graphically enhanced, e-mailed gift
report. And as with all Kiddiegram products, Kidsigns are written in plain
English with no astrological jargon.
In addition to the Kidsigns reports, parents can learn more about their
children's signs and about astrology in general via the free Kidsigns
e-book and the Kidsigns.Kiddiegram.net interactive guide to astrology. Both
are presented in typical Kidsigns style, full of interesting facts and eye-
pleasing graphics with a down-to-earth, conversational tone that will
appeal even to hardened skeptics.
"Accomplished thirtysomethings might find it illuminating to read the
mini-Kidsigns reports their parents should have had on hand when raising
them," said Kiddiegram founder Moira Collins. "Kidsigns reports are fun and
accurate, and they make treasured keepsakes a parent can keep referring to
as the years go by."
And there's another reason to order a Kidsigns report: Ten percent of
all Kidsigns from Kiddiegram purchases goes toward the Kiddygram Fund
, a fund Collins established in 2005 to support children's initiatives like the UN Fund for Orphans.
For the month of September, anyone ordering a full Kidsigns report will
receive a free grown-up comparison chart for the child's parents. Details
are available at http://suprisespecials.blogspot.com/. Anyone can enter to
win a free Kidsigns report through the Kidsigns Lucky Draw
