Happy Veteran’s Day, America! Like this young patriot we spotted on Fifth Ave. in Manhattan, ready to salute veterans as they marched by in the parade, we honor and celebrate everyone who has served this country. Thanks to those brave men and women, we live in a democracy that grants us our freedoms—like the right to vote in the midterm elections last week. Many of you shared the experience with your children, helping to mold the next generation of the country’s leaders. Go U.S.A.!

#Preschooler helping to sort laundry, #toddler is helping to set the table. Love #kidchores . What do your littles ones tackle to help? — Jeanne Russell, CLC (@ConfidentMama) November 9, 2014
When all three of us were young, I remember setting the dinner table with my older siblings. It was my job to fold the napkins! The hardest chore I’ve done lately was helping to narrow down the hundreds of submissions in our Halloween Photo Contest—there were so many costumed cuties to choose from! See this year’s winners here. Maybe you’ll be inspired for the perfect costume for next Halloween! Join us on Tuesdays for more Top Tweets. In the meantime, follow us for practical parenting advice, local events in the NY Metro area, and exclusive deals and discounts. Join the conversation by tweeting at us, @NYMetroParents—maybe you’ll see your tweet here next week!
