On The Blogroll: Primetime Parenting

The NYMetroParents blogroll features the best blogs in the parenting world, from New York and beyond. Here’s a closer look at why we love these mom bloggers and dad bloggers and how they’re shaping the web for parenting today.

Blogging From: Queens, New York

Let’s keep it Kosher! Esti Berkowitz is no ordinary blogger; her days are full of hectic meetings, strict religious practices, and three young children. After having her share of the corporate world and deciding that she rather follow her passions for writing and blogging, Esti quit her job and created the website Primetime Parenting for the purpose of documenting her life and informing mothers about local events, contests, and her personal opinions and beliefs. On this site, you can learn the inspirational story of how Esti rediscovered her Jewish religion and how it affects her as a mother. Primetime Parenting also contains Kosher recipes, links and information about upcoming events, and fun activities you and your family can partake in—the kinds that are definitely worth getting involved in. Don’t you wish you had the opportunity to see the Avenger characters at the Bronx zoo before the film made its big appearance? In addition to this, the site also provides detailed recommendations about products and vacation spots, and information about interesting events the Primetime Parenting crew have attended on behalf of their research and personal desire; this includes the release of New York Yankee’s Curtis Granderson’s line of fragrance in which all proceeds go to the Grand Kid’s Foundation, a foundation that raises funds for education for inner city youth and sports programs.             

A strong supporter of the RBaby Foundation and many others, this group, which consists of strong believers in self-discovery and good parents, publishes a blog you do not want to ignore. — Holly Tucker
